I'm a bad writer.Instead of updating, I make another story. Lately, I've been crazy about mermaids and the disney movie, that I had to write something about it. At this moment, I don't really know the plot, the pairings, and pretty much anything! Oh well, at least I don't have major writer's block like for my other stories. I don't own Yugioh, or the Little Mermaid, or anything else I might mention here.
A violet tailed merman was swimming gracefully around the his undersea home, singing to himself.
I've got gadgets and gizmos a-plenty
I've got whozits and whatzits galore
You want thingamabobs?
I've got twenty!
But who cares?
No big deal
I want more
A curious pair of eyes watched the creature who was singing the strange lyrics.
I wanna be where the people are
I wanna see, wanna see them dancin'
Walking around on those...
"What do you call em?" the boy asked himself.
"Feet," came a reply.
The mystical creature practically jumped out of his skin.
"You scared the wits out of me, Sonya!" he cried.
The red haired girl only laughed at the innocent merman.
"Where did you learn that weird song?" she asked swimming over to him. "It was called the 'Little Mermaid,' right?"
"Yeah, and I heard it from a ship that was passing by," the boy answered. "They were blasting the music in their ship."
Mermaids and mermen knew a lot more about humans than some may suspect. They're still careful not to get caught, but curious enough to peek up at the surface.
"So you got the song stuck in your head, Yugi?" she asked.
"Pretty much," he answered shrugging. "Besides, that movie makes a good point, Sonya."
"Which is...?"
Flippin' your fins, you don't get too far
Legs are required for jumping, dancing
As he sang, he swan around the green tailed mermaid.
Strolling along down a -
"What's that word again?" he asked her.
"Street," she sang to him.
Before long, the two began to sing together.
Up where they walk, up where they run
Up where they stay all day in the sun
Wanderin' free - wish I could be
Part of that world
Yugi went on his own little solo.
What would I give if I could live out of these waters?
What would I pay to spend a day warm on the sand?
Sonya swam over to him, and sang herself.
Bet'cha on land they understand
That they don't reprimand their daughters
Bright young women sick of swimmin'
Together: Ready to stand
From then on, Yugi sang himself, as Sonya watched him.
I'm ready to know what the people know
Ask 'em my questions and get some answers
What's a fire and why does it - what's the word?
Burn?
She was starting to notice how longing his voice sounded, and got a bad feeling from it.
When's it my turn?
Wouldn't I love, love to explore that shore up above?
He started to swim closer to the surface, but Sonya stopped him before he could.
Out of the sea
Wish I could be
He looked into her eyes, with his depressing, needy eyes.
"Part of that world," he whispered.
"Now Yugi, being on the surface isn't that great," she told him.
"In the story, it sounded like a great time," Yugi remarked. "The main character even had a happy ending."
Sonya looked at him in puzzlement. "I thought you only heard the song."
"I also found a book," he admitted.
"How did you read the book?" she asked with a glint of interest in her voice.
"Asked a surface friend," he answered quietly and blushing.
Sonya groaned and wailed, "Not that Jounouchi kid!"
"He's a very nice human," Yugi argued. "He's kept my existence a secret for almost a year now."
"I thought you only met him last month!" Sonya cried.
"Oops," Yugi shrugged with a smile.
"Anyways, that version of the story is a big fat, fake fish tale," she told him. "The real version is a lot worse."
"Real version?" Yugi asked tilting his head. "There's another one?"
"Yes, there's another one regarding princess Kisara, and the stupid mistake she made for a human prince," she scoffed. "Kisara gave up everything only to have her heart broken."
"How come?" Yugi asked. "Didn't he know that she was his savior from the ship wreck."
"That's the problem with humans," Sonya scolded. "They're too stupid to realize the truth."
"What happened to her?" Yugi asked.
"What happens when a merperson dies?" she asked back.
"She's sea foam!!" he exclaimed. "Wow, all this happened because of love?"
"Pretty much," Sonya answered. "So don't get any stupid ideas about the surface world."
"But why did she die?" Yugi asked.
"Because of the spell that she had agreed to be a part of in order to be with that prince," Sonya explained. "A careless mistake for some human."
"Who was the prince?" Yugi asked.
"I think his name was Prince Seto, or something," she replied.
"I never knew about this version of the story," Yugi mumbled. "I think I'll stick to Disney."
"Stick to what?" Sonya asked.
"Never mind!" Yugi huffed.
"Hey, aren't you suppose to meet Anzu now, or something?" Sonya asked him trying to change the subject.
"Oh yeah!" Yugi exclaimed. "She said she had something to tell me."
"See ya later bro, and stay out of trouble!" she warned.
"I know, I know," Yugi said rolling his eyes. "I'll be back by dinner!"
With that, the small merman swam off into the distance.
Sonya rolled her eyes and sighed. "Young sea people today. So curious, and so naïve."
---
Yugi swam over to his childhood friend, Anzu Misaki.
She had a sapphire tail that matched with her eyes, as well as a top that was green.
Like Yugi, Anzu was in love with the surface world, and secretly wanted to explore the amazing world as a human.
"What's up, Anzu?" Yugi asked swimming over to her.
"I found something that might be of interest to us, Yugi," she told him.
"Let me see!" Yugi demanded excitedly.
Anzu presented to to him a golden puzzle box and a an old, thick book.
"I like the puzzle, but what's up with the book?" Yugi asked holding the box in his hands.
"Don't you know what this is?" she asked excitedly.
"Nope."
"It's the spell book that the sea witch had, when she turned Ariel into a human!" Anzu exclaimed.
Both of the merpeople were big fans of the movie.
"I don't remember Ursula having a spell book," he told her.
"Well, I guess she used this for references or to practice with when she was younger," Anzu explained.
Just then, Yugi remember about the story of Kisara.
"Anzu, are you sure this was used by Ursula?" Yugi asked. "Maybe it was used on Kisara."
"Don't be silly, Kisara's story is just a story older sea folk tell their children to scare them away from the surface," Anzu assured him. "So, you wanna try the spell?"
You'll get his response of you review enough. Also, since I have just started my summer vacation on Wednesday, I'll be able to update way more frequently, so contribute on giving me something to do! By the way, help we out with some pairings, too. I'm still not sure who I'm gonna hook up in this story! Until then, see ya later:-)
