Ok here's the next chapter. And, PurpleNicole, I know this is similar to Winx Club. I babysat my cousin and she has the show on her moms ipad so she always likes to watch them. I liked the theme of it and it kind of fit in with my story. So yeah. Thats where I got the name Tressa and the Selkie which is probably what Im going to end up calling them. But they aren't going to be completely alike. Sorry for those who do not like the show. I don't like the show, but I love me some inspiration. Enjoy!
-Chapter 3-
-Davis-
So far in my day, I've gotten some kind of sickness, witnessed an oil rig explosion, and now Im about to have to call the cops since Adam might commit murder on Chase.
"I can't help that im smarter!" Chase said while throwing his hands up.
"Yeah you can! Be as smart as me atleast!" Adam countered. "I would, but I'd probably forget how to tie my own shoes" Chase said while smirking. Here we go.
"Oh yeah!" Adam walked over to Chase picked him up and threw him over the couch.
"I'll get the bandages" Leo said in complete monotone. This has happened atleast 50 different times. One time Adam got Chase and his friend mixed up and threw him on accident.
"got the bandages" Leo said. I took the roll and handed it to Adam. "Fix him" I said. Adam looked at me weirdly and bandaged Chase's arm which was slightly bleeding. Someone started knocking on the door.
"Your friends are here" I said as I walked over to the door. I opened it up and turns out it was my friend, Josh.
"Hey" He said. "Hey, I thought you were one of Adam or Chase's friends" I said. He walked in while Adam was benadaging Chase.
"Again?" He asked me. "Yup" I said. We walked back to the couch and took out Adam and Chase's game.
"We were playing that!" Chase said. I turned around and smirked. "Well...We are now" I said. Chase and Adam got up when the doorbell rang again.
"can't the world just go away!?" I said. Josh laughed Adam went to go open the door.
"Hey Spencer" He said. That was Adam's friend, or well more like his actual twin.
"Hey guys, Chase I see you've gotten smaller" He said while high fiving Adam. I just laughed.
"Oh yeah...Now I've got 3 little brothers!" Adam said. Chase glared at him. "Don't be short if your gonna get teased" I said.
"You have no room to talk, your still like 2 feet shorter!" Chase said. "Im also 7 years younger so I have an excuse" I said. I loved it when they complained about heighth and age, and Im just like 'Really?'. Look at me!
"Hey did you guys hear about that rig?" Spencer asked. "Yeah, weird thing is Davis got sick right when it happened and he had a dream about it" Leo said. By now he probably thinks Im some kind of freak.
"That's weird" He said. I nodded. Thank you Leo for making me look like a freak infront of Adam's friend! "No kidding"
Adam and Spencer jacked mine and Josh's game, so we just moved up to my room.
"So does this happen alot?" Josh asked. "Yup. I usually get kicked out of the living room by them, then I end up in here" I said. When their friends come over I usually make myself go to my room since everyone is alot taller, smarter, taller, louder, taller, older, oh and TALLER! I get nervous around thing sthat are more than 6 inches taller than me. Josh's phone went off. Lucky, we're the same age and he somehow has a phone before I do!
"That was my mom. She's coming to pick me up" He said. Man! "alright see ya" I said. I followed him downstairs and found Adam Chase and Leo, hanging with Spencer and Chase's friend Billy.
"I guess Josh is going home?" Leo asked. "Yup, and Im running away. See ya" I said. Chase quickly ran infront of me. "Uh no" He said
"He just threatened to run away and your okay with that?" Billy asked. "He does tha tall the time. Pretty sure that was his first word" Chase said. I shrugged my shoulders. It might've been, but I really hate being the only kid in a house with tons of teenagers! You know I'd give anything to be anywhere but here...
-No-Ones P.O.V-
The little creature swam across the sea floor until she reached a similar coral structure.
"Neptunes Gate!" The creature said. The structure began to shimmmer and revealed to be a portal. The creature swam through it and appeared in a small underwater village.
"Tressa!" The creature yelled. A mermaid turned around. "Una. What's wrong?" Tressa asked.
"Oil has been leaking into the ocean. You need to use your powers" The creature who was presumed to be Una said.
"Oil? Where?" Tressa asked. "Earth..." Una said.
"Una you know our powers don't work there since the war" Tressa said. "And all magic was erased from Earth years ago" Una said.
"I know, the oil could leak into our prestine waters and could throw The Depths out of balance" Tressa said. "We must get the king involved" Una said. With that Una and Tressa swam off to King Poiseidon's throne room.
-Davis-
I decided to wait in my room until everyone left. Of course that may not happen considering they usually end up staying the night and if T.J, Leo's friend, gets here, Im doomed. Someone knocked on my door.
"Come in" I said. It was Chase. "Hey, are you still feeling sick?" He asked. I realized I was laying on my bed, bored, annoyed, and a little sickly.
"No, just bored" I said. "You can come downstairs and hang out with us" He said. I chuckled a little. "Right...and bunnies commit mass murders!" I said. Chase rolled his eyes.
"Come on I promise you'll have fun" He said. I shook my head. "What if we go down to the beach?" Chase asked. "Dad said we're not allowed to because of the oil" I said.
"We could just sit at the shore" That was actually a good idea and the oil didn't get to the shore so we should be fine.
"fine" I said. I grabbed my swim suit, shoved Chase out of my room and changed. I walked downstairs and noone else was there. Chase came walking down.
"You ready?" He asked. I nodded. "Alright let's go, we're meeting everyone down there" He said. We walked over to his car and got in. I sat on the pinkish stain on the black leather seats and lifted my self up.
"I still have to get that cleaned up, thank you by the way" He said. "you only have yourself to blame, you bought me ice cream, and you turned too fast and hard" I said. He rolled his eyes. I sat down and we left.
-The Beach
It felt so good being out here. It didn't look like any oil was out there. I ran off into the water. I loved the feeling of the water going in between my toes. I got out to the deeper part and my feet began to get farther from the bottom. I love getting to point where I can't touch.
I felt the water getting thicker and thicker which is really weird, unless...oil. I thought they completely cleaned this part up. I began to swim back to shore but I felt something rough swim across my legs. I immedately stop in my tracks. If it's a fish, Im gonna flip! I love the ocean but I hate fish, mainly because I can't see them! I began to vigorously shake my legs and head back to shore but a sharp pinching feeling is hit on my legs.
"OW!" I yelped. Im pretty sure I just hit some coral then the rough feeling came back around and pinched my leg again. The nest thing I knew a red cloud formed in the water. Then out of nowhere a huge ripping sensation goes through my leg, it almost felt and sounded like tearing paper! All I could do, was scream and kick. I saw something glowing beneath me then the feeling left.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I yelled as I was crying, freaking out and trying to swim with what little part of my leg I have left. The next thign I knew I saw a gray fin emerge from the water and head the other way. I try to quickly go to shore but I just can't swim fast enough. CChase begans to run through the water to get to me.
"Davis what ahppened?!" He asked. I was too scared to talk and I couldn't talk because my crying kept stopping me.
-Chase-
Billy, Spencer, T.J, Leo and I were trying to bury Adam in the sand when I heard Davis screaming. I saw a fin in the water and realised he must've been hti by a shark! I noticed a red cloud around him which was mor ethna likely blood in the water. I quickly ran out to the water to get him.
"Davis what happened?!" I asked. He was too busy crying to speak. I figured. I picked him up like a baby and noticed his leg was torn up and ripped open. Not to mention the black sludge all over it. Oil! I ran back to the shore.
"CALL 911!" I yelled. Adam immediately broke out of the sand and came running towards me along with Leo. Spencer called the ambualnce.
Davis just had his face burried in my shirt sobbing. "Hand me a towel!" I said. Adam handed me a towel and I wrapped it around his leg. We could hear the ambulance from here but a lifegaurd came up.
"What happened!?" He asked. "My brother just got attacked by a shark!" I said. "Ok did you already call the police?" He asked. I nodded.
"Ok good, I don't have anymore medical equipment with me since I used it for the oil rig people" He said. "It's fine, they're here!" Leo said. Two ambulance people came running out of the ambulance.
"What happened?" One asked me. "Shark" Is all I said. One guy looked at his leg. "Get him to the hospital now!" He said. I handed Davis to one of them. "Which one of you is riding with?" One asked. Adam pushed me a little. "I'll go" I said. I hopped in the ambulance and we left.
I sat in the back with him. He looked at me with really big watery eyes.
"Your gonna be ok. I promise" I said. He sniffled a little. He kept looking at his leg. I leaned over him to block his veiw of it, mainnly because if you look at an injury you think it's worse than it actually is.
Once we got to the hospital a doctor came in and took Davis to an operating room.
"He'll need stitches but not that much. He's one of the lucky ones" The doctor said. I walked into the room to the room where Davis was and kneeled down next to him on the bed.
"Hey, so your gonna need stitches" I said. He looked really scared. He's never had stitches before and he prmoised himself he never would. He gripped on to my hand it was pretty funny how little his was compared to mine, imagine how it looks compared to Adam's or Dad's. "Your gonna be ok. Im not leaving" I said. He seemed to calm down.
"Actually, you need to leave, we're about to use anesthetics on him" He said. Davis tensed up.
"I'll be back as soon as they're done" I said. He nodded. I walked back to the waiting room where Leo, T.J, Spencer and Billy were waiting.
"How is he?" Leo asked. "Scared, like paranormal activity 3 scared" I said. Leo understood. We saw that movie and couldn't sleep for atleast 3 days.
"Where's Adam?" I asked. "He went to go get something from the gift shop" Billy said. Oh boy...
-Davis-
I layed on the bed, watching the doctors as they performed on my leg. "We need to clean the oil off of your leg" The doctor said. He grabbed a bottle and squeezed the water on my leg, which was cooooold!
"Alright, somehow your leg isn't as bad as it was earlier, which is weird but, les stithing for you!" The nurse said. I smiled a little. The pain was gone but the fear was there. The doctor grabbed thread and stitching stuff.
"Alright we're starting the stitching" I nodded and he stitched my leg. It felt super weird, like something was tugging at my skin. I shuddered a little. Weird.
After about 15 minutes of stitching he was done. "I'll go let everyone know your done" He said. I nodded. Prepare for the most attention I'll ever get and frankly, I need it.
Adam, Chase, Leo, T.J, Billy, and Spencer walked in. "your leg looks a lot better" Chase said while sitting next to me.
"Yeah" I siad. I looked at Adam who was holding two gift basket things with stuffed dogs in them. One was shades of blue, brown, and other dog colors. The other was all pinks and purples.
"Adam you know Im a boy right?" I asked. He looked at the pink one. "Yeah this one is for Chase. He seemed so worried" Adam said whiel laughing a little. I laughed a little. "So you ready to go?" Chase asked.
"Yeah" I said. I got up with help from Chase and we walked to his car. T.J Spencer and Billy went home since Mom is probably going to have the whole barn when she gets home.
-Home
We all sat on the couch. I had my leg elevated on the coffee table with a pillow. Mom came home and we prepared for a Mom-bomb.
"Wht happened to Davis's leg!?" She asked. "Well he uhhh...fell...uh..down the stairs..." Leo said trying to cover up our day.
"Your lying. What really happened and I want the truth and don't lie, I'll know, Leo." she said while looking at Leo.
"She'll know" He said. We all looked at eachother.
"fine, we went to the beach and went swimming, well Davis did. He got attacked by a shark" Adam said. Mom's eyes widened.
"WHAT?!" She said while ruching over to me.
"My baby got attacked by a shark?!" she said. She examined my leg. "Yeah but Im fine" I said. She glared at Adam Chase and Leo.
"How could you three let your little brother get attacked by a shark?" she asked menacingly.
"Well we just sat there with our friends and played in the sand while it happened" Adam said. Mom glared at all of them.
"The three of you are grounded for two weeks! And Davis, Im sure this leg injury is enough punishment for going to the beach when your father told you NOT to, since you won't be able to swim wiht it for about 6 weeks" she said.
"WHAT!" I said. While standing up. I cringed a little in pain. "If either of you don't think this is fair, you can call your father and take it up with him" She said. That was how she got us to accept our punsihments. When we get in trouble it's super scary to deal with Dad.
"Fine..." Chase said. Mom left to to the lab to do some research leaving us there.
"Im sorry you guys got grounded" I said. "Why? you didn't get grounded" Leo asked a little angrily.
"Well I wanted to go out to the water and I got attacked by a shark" I said. I really didn't like it when things happen because of me. Especially grounding.
"Yeah if you didn't go out to the water, we wouldn't be here" Adam said. Ok...that's usually when they tell me it's not my fault and that it was okay, but this is different.
"Not to mention you wouldnt've gotten attacked by a shark" Chase said. I looked down at the floor."Sorry..." I said.
"Little late" Leo said. They all walked up to their rooms leaving me there. Great, now they hate me because I got them grounded. I layed on the couch waiting for someone to come in and help me get my leg off the table. It locked up on me so now I've got to wait.
-Night
I sat on the couch all day waiting for someone but nothing. Eventually Adam came downstairs to get dinner since Mom was working kind of late.
"Adam, little help?" I asked while gesturing towards my leg. "You already got stitches, my advice is to NOT swim in an ocean filled with oil" He said. "Adam I mean can you help me up? My leg locked up" I said. He sighed and picked me up.
"Want some dinner?' He asked still cradiling me. "Sure" I said. He brought me over and sat me on the counter with my leg elevated on it. He took two pieces of bread and put them in the toaster. "So...how's being grounded?" I asked.
"fun, I watched tv up until now. What about you?" He asked.
"I've been sitting at the couch doing nothing since people just forgot about me" I said. He sighed.
"Sorry, we were just mad. We'd never forget about you, even if we want to" Adam said. I smiled. He took the pieces of toast and put cheese in the middle and put them in the microwave to melt the cheese.
"It's pretty late, how are you not asleep?" He asked. I look at the clock on the oven. 9:30. Man...My stomach growled really loud.
"That's why. I've got chewbacca in my stomach" I said. He laughed and gave me the grilled cheese.
"Thanks" I said. I sat there and ate it while he ate his burrito he heated up.
"No problem"
After I finished my sandwhich Adam carried me up to my bed and I tried to go to sleep.
-Adam-
Ok total accident forgetting Davis. I made him some dinner and apparently he feels like he's forgotten alot. That's not true. Im glad I helped him. Usually he only opens up like that to Chase, but this time it was to me. Then again, he hasn't had human interaction since earlier today. I took him to his room so he could sleep. Im starting to worry about him. Ever since the oil rig blew, all this stuff started happening to him. I walked into my room and layed down.
-Tressa-
Una and I swam across the waters to find Poiseidon. Im worried about the oil. If The Depths gets thrown out of balance, then all the oceans in the universe will be thrown out of balance. It'll be a chain reaction.
We arrived at Poiseidons throne room.
"King Poiseidon. We have urgent news!" I said. He moved down from his chair. He had a long fish tail and a beard, nto to mention the sword. The sword was the most threatening part about him.
"Tressa? What's going on?" He asked. "Oil spilled in the waters and has made it's way into the magic world. We need to get rid of it. Where's Layla?" I asked. Layla was my best friend. She knew everything about the ocean. She was also Magic cove's gaurdian.
"She's out right now with the other selkies" He said. I nodded. "We must find her and get her to help us" I said. With that we swam up to Mine and Layla's favorite hideout.
-Davis-
I fell asleep that night, the moons light was shining through my window.
-Dream-
I was underwater and moving fast. Everythign was a blur to me. i met this small mermaid creature. I followed it to a spot in some ocean I've never seen before. Once I got there, I found a pillar made of emerald.
"This is Dragon Bay..." the creature said. I looked at the pillar with astonishment. When everything lit up and then everything turned desolate. The pillar was one giant ruin. Then a monster like creature came after me.
"GRRRRRRRRAHHHHH!" It yelled. I turned around and right when it stabbed me, I woke up.
-End Dream-
I was in a cold sweat, breathing hard, and crying, clutching my stomach. I got up from my bed when a strike of thunder came by. "AH!" I said. The thunder scared me a little. Afterwards I walked into Chase's room. I tried to gently shake him awake.
"Chase...Chase..." I whispered. His eyes opened and he shocked awake.
"Davis! What are you doing here?" He whispered loudly. He noticed my tears and sighed. He moved over and patted a little spot. I took the spot.
"So what was this one about?" He asked.
"I-I got stabbed by this m-m-m-monster" I said while crying a little. "Really?" He asked. I nodded.
"Yeah, I got killed!" I said while begginning to sob. He hugged me and tried to calm me down.
-Chase-
When Davis woke me up I figured he had a nightmare about the shark, btu instead it's about this monster that killed him. What's up with him and all these weird dreams? He kept sobbing. I know how bad it is when a child has a nightmare about somehting killing them.
I held him for minute and began to rock side to side. This is usuallly how you calm him down. Mom and Dad did it all the time on him. I started humming to some random stuff which that calms him down too.
After about 5-10 minutes of doing that, his sobs became soft snores. I layed him on my bed and pulled the covers over him. Hopefully he'll sleep the rest of the night.
-Davis-
I woke up the next morning in Chase's room. I guess I must've fallen asleep here. I was fully awake when I heard him snore. I got up and walked back into my room. Once I did I got this huge head-ache.
I sat on my bed. What's going on with this? Why am I getting this random head-ache? Suddenly I could hear small voices.
'Layla!' One said. Who's Layla? Im sure Im still half alseep or something. I layed on my bed and went back to sleep.
How was that? Finally a longer chapter! Anyways I decided to use some stuff from the show Winx Club in this. I did some research to see what there was. Layla was some girl on there and I liked the name. I think the monster resembles the bad guy on there too. anyways this story will not be completely copied by it, but ther ewill be similarities. but no fairies. I might use the infinate ocean idea but thats probably it. Hope you continue to enjoy it!
