'Stupid Roderich, I would fire him but he's the closet thing to my friend. That damn human is trying to get to me but I know he's going to pick someone else over me. Stupid human.' Lovino thought, feeling up to having one of his world class temper tantrums.

"Oh, you must be the new student." He heard someone say, he turned around and saw two men behind him, both of them had their arms crossed. One was smirking, one was not.

Lovino furrowed his brows and one smirked. "This one is the mute. He can't talk, but you're asking who are we. My name is Mogens, and his name is Abel. It's strange how the weather changes, and then you four appear, and the mermaids... Disappear." Mogens says, circling Lovino like a shark.

Lovino glares at Mogens, and Abel says, "come on, I know you can sign in almost thirteen different languages."

Lovino swallows a growl and he signs in English, "what are you getting at?"

"Oh, well. We just think how strange it is that four boys suddenly appear out of nowhere, one can speak several languages with his hands and is smarter than an average twenty year old, one can talk to animals and the other... Has an extreme green thumb." Mogens says, and Abel pushes Lovino back.

"Hmm? What do you have to say for yourself, merman? Oh, wait, you. Can't. Speak." Abel says, pushing Lovino again, who bites his lip to prevent from reacting. He could set to two on fire if he wanted, but not to prove them right or to bring around attention. "Oh. Oh my. I didn't see it before. He's royalty. From which kingdom does thy travel?" Abel says.

"Obviously the Left Kingdom. See his crown? The curl?" Mogens says, poking the hair. Lovino's left eye twitched and he signed 'are you mad? I'm not a merman. Those don't even exist.'

"Deniiiiiiiiii-alllllllll." Abel said in a singsong voice.

"We'll be keeping an eye on you and your brothers, Lovino Deanthony Romano Franceso Lave Vargas." Mogens says, as they turn and leave Lovino, both starting to chuckle and by the time they left Lovino's eyesight, they were laughing.

He growls and goes to the water fountain in the hall, he pushes the button, and the spout squirts water directly at his top, getting his jeans, shirt and shoes wet. His eyes widen and he hightailed it to his dorm. He had just gotten in the dorm before he sighs and falls to the floor, pushing the door closed with his weight.

"Lovino?" He hears Antonio say, before he saw the boy walk up and freeze. "Y-You're a merman again..." He says softly.

He rolls his eyes and signs, before Antonio calls to Roderich. "Hey, Roderich, translation!"

Roderich comes to his location and he freezes, before running over to Lovino. "What happened my King?"

'Some stupido guys came to talk to me, they seem to know about my brothers and I's identity and after they left I went to get some water and the stupid sprout soaked my clothes.' Lovino signed.

"You got your feet wet.." Roderich says, fixing Lovino's hair.

Antonio moves closer to the two and crouches down next to Lovino. "What happens when he gets his feet wet?" Antonio set a hand on Lovino's tail, who flinched and softly, halfheartedly hissed at him.

"The Kings can transform into human on their own, but if their feet get wet, they revert back over to their merman form." Roderich says, flicking Antonio's hand off Lovino's tail.

Antonio softly smiles, his eyes trailing down Lovino's tail, which stretched to at least five feet. Lovino's body was another four, placing the merman, when in his merman form, at at least nine feet tall. "What a pretty colour, Lovino. Doesn't the colour of the tail state the colour of your power?"

Lovino nods, as he struggles to pull himself up. "What is your power?" Antonio asks.

"Fire. King Lovino can control fire. He is the king of the Fire Coral Kingdom." Roderich says, getting up and going to Lovino's room returning with a shirt. "This is going to take a while. No power or towel can dry him off." Roderich says, grabbing Lovino's arms. "Get his tail, please."

Antonio nods and gets up, grabbing Lovino's fin. He pulled and he saw Lovino wince, before hissing at him. "No no no, Antonio. Grab his ankles, the fins are very sensitive." Roderich says, and Antonio nods, getting Lovino's ankles. The two carry Lovino to living room, and setting him on the couch.

Antonio sat down next to Lovino, curious of the merman. "Lovino, mind if I...?" He was cut short by a glare from the merman, he saw the dorsal fin on the back of Lovino's tail flip over to the side and Roderich says, "go ahead. He won't attack, just know that if the fin on his back is standing up, not to touch him."

Antonio slightly nods and sets his hand on the small part of his tail, where his knees where at. Lovino flinched but he didn't hiss or growl or react. Antonio felt disgusted by the nasty slimy feeling of the fishy tail, but he didn't show the emotion. He got closer to the tail fin and he heard Lovino whimper softly. "You okay, Lovino?"

No reponse, from Roderich or Lovino. But he got to Lovino's fin and Roderich pushed him away. "Unless you're choosing My King, I recommend you to stop there." He warned.

"Why?" Antonio asks.

"Like his curl, and dorsal fin, his tail fin is very sensitive." Roderich says.

"Toni!" He hears Feliciano say, and Lovino looks up. He gives a weary smile as the boys freeze. "Has Toni pick Lovi?"

Lovino shakes his head and signs, "no, I got wet on accident and I'm still needing to dry."

"Oh, poor Fratello." Luciano says, sitting on the ground next to Lovino.

"I shall make food for us, vee?" Feliciano says, and Lovino signs something.

Roderich translates, "his highness asks do you have the vocal tick again?"

"Si, I do." Feliciano replies sadly, only to have Luciano chuckle.

"It'll go away soon, Fratello."

"Vee, I know." Feliciano says, as Lovino's tail fin slightly flicks.
