Alicia:I'm back with the third chapter. Sorry it took me a while to update. I've been busy with graudation and stuff. I'm finally out of high school. Weeeeee!
Havoc: Please excuse her. The heat is getting to her.
Alicia: Just do the disclaimer.
Havoc: Griffin Alchemist does not own yu-gi-oh, but she does own the plot and her merman character.
Alcia: Thank you and enjoy.
Chapter 3: The Secret
Dusk soon came and Marik found Malik in the living room, watching the weather.
"What are you doing?"
Malik glanced at him. "To see if tonight will be a cloudless night. I can only see my secret on a cloudless night when the moon shines." He stood and grabbed his helmet. "Well, I'm going."
"Have fun," said Marik.
"Fine. I'm going to be at the park."
He speeded through the city, heading towards the park.
Malik quickly drove so that he wouldn't miss the merman. He just wished that Marik could have gone with him.
He got to the park in record time. Malik quickly parked the bike and got off.
Malik sat down under a tree right by the lake.
There was a loud splash and a flash of red.
"There he is," Malik whispered. "A merman." He watched in amazement as a magnificent creature leaped out of the water.
He had the upper body of a man and his lower body was of a red scaled fish. The water on his body shimmered in the moonlight. He landed with a loud splash.
Malik's eyes widened when he saw another one, but what got him the most was that this merman looked like Marik.
Some where else in the park a young brunette with cold blue eyes was walking around, lost in thought. He heard a loud splash. "And who in their right mind would be swimming at this hour of the night?" He went off in search of this insane person.
He soon found the source. He saw the creatures. "Mermen? Hmm… Such rare creatures. Almost as rare as my blue-eyes white dragons, if not rarer." He smirked and silently walked away.
The red scaled merman formed the water into a flat rock and hopped up into it. You could clearly see him now. He had black stripes around his arms, his tail, and on his back. His red hair glimmered in the moonlight. He stretches out on the rock and yawned. The other merman, the Marik look alike, hopped up onto the rock right beside the other. He scales were a deep red just like the other male's and he had the same black stripes on his body.
"Is that Marik?" he asked himself.
Malik shook his head. "That couldn't be him. Could it?"
A cold wind blew and he shivered.
"I better be going."
He stood and went back to the bike. He quickly drove back to his house.
Alcia: Review please.
