A/N::: …I haven't updated in so long! I'm so sorry! Enjoy!

I logged in today and it had that 'are you human' thing and I failed the first try...does this mean I'm not Human? *tears* What am I then? Cause a computer wouldn't have missed any letters...

lol


Aside from the sand clinging to his damp body, Izaya was grateful. Saki had been correct on the direction of the kingdom.

Izaya sat beside the blonde man Shizuo who lay unconscious on the sand of the beach. The two weren't any farther than a step from the ocean. The now gentle waves reaching Izaya's tail every so often.

The ruby eyed male could feel the spray of the salt water as the waves crashed gently onto the shore. The sun was now beginning to raise.

"Is he alive?" Izaya shifted his gaze from the man one the sand to the young girl on her knees at the princes feet. Saki watched the prince with unblinking eyes.

That always creepy to Izaya, how Saki could stare at someone or something without blinking for the longest time. He never said a work though. He assumed it was a bird thing.

Izaya looked back to Shizuo. The man didn't look like he was breathing, Izaya was about to lower his head to hear or feel if he was only to be stopped by Saki's voice.

"I don't hear his heat beating!" Izaya looked at her, panic rolling over him and then rolled his eyes while the panic instantly vanished in a blink. Human or not, the mans heart wasn't located in his foot. Before he could tell that to the girl the image of Shizuo taking a deep breath entered his vision.

"He's alive." Izaya breathed, the man was an idiot but Izaya was glad he wasn't dead.

"I wonder if he's got a concussion; him sleeping isn't good if he does. He could get hurt more…" Saki was talking to herself but she had directed it to Izaya.

Deciding to listen to Saki, he began to hum in hopes of waking the man but that didn't stir the blonde anymore than him shifting his head only slightly.

He chose to sing, leaning closer to the man.

"What would I give…, to live where you are…," Izaya couldn't help but run his finger tips along Shizuo's cheek. "What would I pay, to stay here beside you,"

Kida shook his head as a wave forced him onto a rock near the shore where Izaya was. Mikado bumped into the same rock but was the first to notice the scene.

"What would I do…, to see you smiling at me…"

Kida couldn't help but be completely shocked. The king was going to kill him! His son was falling for a human! "Not good…"

"Hush!" Saki hissed, smiling over at the two. Mikado smiled along with her but couldn't help but feel slightly upset at the twist of events.

Reaching to brush blonde strand of hair from the mans forehead, "Where would we walk…if we could stay all day in the sun…just you and me…and I could be…" Izaya was slightly taken aback when his hand was covered by Shizuo's and honey colored eyes opened "Part of your world…"

Izaya smiled at the human. Hazel eyes. The color of honey really. Izaya loved those eyes. His smile lost to him once he heard a loud bark.

Looking up quickly he saw the furry beast called Max running towards them. Panicking, he took his hand from Shizuo and Izaya hurried back into the sea, shielding himself from sight behind a rock just as Tom was heard calling for Shizuo.

"There you are!" Shizuo sat up as Tom walked up to him, Max jumping on Shizuo's lap and licking his face. He didn't pay them mind, to caught up in the voice and person he had just heard and seen.

Tom helped Shizuo to his feet. "You just love raising my blood pressure." The man joked then he got serious. "What happened to you? How'd you get here?"

"A boy…he…rescued me, and he was singing to me…" Shizuo looked around but couldn't find who he had seen. He shook his, the sun had blocked his sight so he hadn't gotten a good look at the boy but he had noticed one thing.

"He had the brightest crimson eyes…" Shizuo continued, where was he? Tom watched his friend nearly stumble a few feet around in search for who ever he was looking for.

The dog, Max, was barking his head off as he stood in the ocean, facing where Izaya was hidden. His bark was in a friendly manner but Tom couldn't imagine what the beast could be seeing. He chose to focus on his friend who had obviously been hallucinating.

"Ah…Shizuo…"

"He had the most.. beautiful voice I've heard…"

Tom smirked and caught the man as he lost his balance and nearly fell backwards. "I'll call the doctor, you've obviously swallowed far too much sea water. Let's get back now. Everyone's been worried sick about you."

Izaya watched and couldn't help but smile at the praise. Of course he didn't like that the dog was barking at him as if it wanted to eat him for lunch. "Shut up…" Izaya muttered even though the beast couldn't hear him.

"Okay…we'll just forget this all ever happened! Right?" Kida said cheerfully and hopefully. Izaya just noticed Kida and Mikado in the water beside the rock he sat on. "His Majesty will never know this happened," the blonde continued not noticing the fact Izaya wasn't listening to a word.

The red eyed teen was too focused on the humans. Well, Shizuo really.

Kida looked at Mikado, wrapping an around his shoulder. "I won't tell him, You won't tell him, and I'll stay in one piece." Kida looked over to Izaya. "Right. Right?"

Mikado then too looked to Izaya, who was still watching the human called Shizuo walk away with his friend the human called Tom.

Izaya smirked to himself. "I don't know how…but I'll be apart of his world…someway or another." He whispered to no one in particular.

Kida nearly fainted and Mikado looked scared but neither said another word as a wave crashed behind them which resulted is Saki transforming and flying away.

What scared Kida the most was that Izaya had meant what he just said. No doubt about that.

Unnoticed, a dark shadow spread into a circle on the surface of the otherwise blue ocean water. It seemed to be alive as it watched Izaya.

Namie gasped at the scene and began to laugh. Her laugh wasn't something kind to listen to it was as if she were going insane but is soon died.

"Incredible! The kings own son! Falling in love with a human! How ridicules…" Eyes narrowing in thought, Namie broke into a smile. "The poor child…Daddy would just love that…"

It was then when she thought of how to get the trident. Her laughter broke out into a dark laugh that consumed the cavern in which she lived it. Small, shriveled gray plant like creatures cowered together as the vile woman plotted.

"Celty!"

A shadow fell over a section of the cave wall and out stepped a woman with no head, yet she could see and hear with no problem. Yet she couldn't speak.

The creature was of the shadows in which she controlled; she had fallen into the trap of Namie by the wretches promise to find the head she had lost a decade ago in exchange for her service and loyalty; it wasn't something Celty had wanted but she required her head.

"I have a plan."

Without her head; Celty was unable to live among the humans as she once did.


"So far, so good." Kida muttered to himself as he swam back and forth while Izaya lay on a rock pulling petals from a flower. The red eyed teen was humming to himself absently ignoring Mikado who sat on the ocean floor watching Kida rant. Kida's voice didn't reach Izaya.

"The king hasn't a clue." Kida continued as he turned to Izaya just as the teen sat up.

Crimson eyes sparking, his smile widened. "I've got to see him again."

Mikado's eyes widened. "But…"

"Izaya! Please!" Kida began, trying to reason with him. "Stop talking crazy!"

"Saki knows where he lives!" Izaya pushed himself from the stone, swimming off towards where Saki rested during the day.

"No!" Kida grasped Izaya's tail. "Get it though your head! You can't be with a human! Let alone love a human!"

"Mikado! You'll make some noise to get his attention! And -"

"IZAYA!"

The teen paused to look at Kida. The smaller teen was glaring at him. "You can't do this." Hands on hips, Izaya stared at him. "Can't do what?"

"Love this…human." Kida muttered the last word like it was infectious. With a sigh, Kida noticed Izaya now staring up at the surface.

"You dream of going up there, but that's a big mistake. You life is down here is so much better than the human world."

Izaya rolled his eyes and gave him a smile that said he wasn't believing it. Kida was about to continue until he realized both Izaya and Mikado where gone. He only looked away for a moment!

"Damn it…somebody has got to nail that boys fins to the floor one of these days…"

He decided waiting for them to return wasn't in the equation so Kida swam back to the palace, all the while grumbling to himself at how he hated having to deal with the teen.

Love wasn't a bad thing, but Izaya wasn't human and never would or could be. The two couldn't work out and Kida found that getting that through Izaya's thick skull was like trying to touch the sun from the bottom of the ocean. Impossible.

Swimming to where the king's throne stood, Kida saw the king smiling and twirling a large pink flower by the stem in his hand.

"Your Majesty?" Did he accept a love present from someone? Kida had thought the king would only love his children and his wife and no one else.

"Ah! Kida! There you are! I have to speak with you about Izaya."

Kida's world shattered. HE KNOWS! "Okay," he whispered to himself. "I've got to keep calm. Just stay calm."

"I'm concerned about Izaya. Haven't you noticed him acting strangely?"

"Strange?" Kida questioned with a nervous smile.

"Daydreaming, singing and humming all the time to himself?" Shiki knew that Kida knew something and he wanted to know. "You haven't noticed?" It wasn't a question because Shiki knew the answer.

"Kida, I know you know something." Shiki continued. "You've been keeping something from be for the past few days."

Kida shook his head. "About Izaya." The king went on, noticing Kida shaking and the loss of his forced smile. "He's in love, Isn't he?"

Nope. Now Kida's world shattered. "I'M SORRY! I TRIED TO STOP HIM BUT HE DIDN'T LISTEN!" Kida gasped in panic. "I TOLD HIM TO STAY AWAY FROM HUMANS AND THE SURFACE!"

"Humans?" Shiki glared and rose from his seat, the trident glowing a burning yellow. "What about humans!"

Kida found that he couldn't swallow the large lump in his throat.
