Me: Welcome to Chapter 19 folks!
Nagisa: Well a guy name Steven Club has already found out the song's name.
Masahiro: Not one but two.
Me *smiling*: Yeah. Steven, you sure got me there.
*All three of us laughed.*
Nagisa: Zahir890 would like to thank all of you for being patience and continue to review and like the story.
Masahiro: He also does not own Mermaid Melody. Just the OCs. I wonder how many times do we have to say that?
Me: And now let Chapter 19 begin!
Chapter 19: A Teacher's Visit.
Evening:
"OMG! So it really is true!" Seira said happily as she jumped in joy.
Seira and others are left in awe as Luchia, Hanon, Rina and Kaito told them about what they discovered in the school.
"Wow! Just wow!" Gaito was left in awe.
"So you are saying that you saw Kazama and Hotoshi drawing the Mermaid Princess of the Arctic Ocean and the South Pacific Ocean and they were talking about it?" Nikora asked.
The four of them nodded in an exciting mood.
"Oh wow! More lovers are coming by!" Yuri said happily.
"But the problem is that Kazama-san and Hotoshi-kun doesn't know that Luchia-san and others are mermaids." Hippo said.
"So we should we tell them about it now that we know about them?" Maki asked.
"No please don't! If they find out that we know their secret, they might start to hate us." Luchia pleaded.
"Luchia is right. Even though we now know the main part about them, we can't just tell them in a hurry." Taki said.
"But I have been through the most embarrassing moment of my life!" Kaito growled.
"And what could that be?" Sara asked.
"Kazama kissed me!"
They all looked at Kaito in shock!
"He...He kissed you?!" Gaito asked in shock.
Kaito nodded.
"Oh Wow! Boy kiss!" Yuri said happily.
"How I wish I was there." Seira said.
"Kaito! Kazama didn't do that on purpose." Rina said sternly.
"Yeah. I don't think Kazama is that type of guy who would do pervert stuffs like this." Sara said.
"But how exactly did that happen?" Gaito asked.
"Well Kazama-san jumped over the teacher's table." Luchia said.
Everyone was shocked at watch Luchia said.
"He was able to jump over the teacher's table?!" Nikora asked in shock.
"Yep. He really did." Hanon said happily, "I never thought that it could be possible."
"Possible for him but not for us." Maki said.
"Wow! Can I learn from him?" Seira asked happily.
"What are you saying?! It will take you 100 years to learn it." Taki said, "And if you try to attempt it, you might get hurt and start crying."
"He just simply ignored the law of gravity." Hippo said.
"But then he got unlucky, right?" Gaito asked.
"Yep. He landed on Kaito and they tumbled down and you know what happened next." Rina said.
"And as a punishment, I caught him and dragged him to the first year class." Kaito said.
"That's Nagisa's class, right?" Yuri asked.
Kaito nodded.
"I wonder what's Yukito doing right now?" Hanon asked, "I haven't seen her for a while."
"I think they are very busy right now." Rina said, "Maybe something to do with our kingdoms."
"What about their husbands?" Luchia asked, "And Azumi?"
"Probably they are busy as well." Nikora said.
The others then saw that Hanon and Rina are leaving.
"Wait! Where are you going?" Sara asked.
"We just want to check our boys to see if they are alright." Hanon said.
"Are you sure? They must have gone home by now." Hippo said.
"We will look for them for sometime." Rina said, "If we can't find them then we will come back."
"Wait. If you find them, should you tell the boys about what we discovered?" Luchia asked.
Everyone thought for a moment.
"I think it's better not to tell them today after all the excitement you guys had in the school today." Maki said.
"Yeah. Besides, you are just having a short date with them." Taki said, "Just find the boys to see if they are okay."
"I think it's best to tell them if you are having a long date with them." Yuri said.
Rina and Hanon both agreed that they will tell the boys about that later when they have the chance.
"When are you coming back?" Seira asked.
"At night." Hanon said.
"Not very late night." Rina smiled in which everyone laughed.
Soon Rina and Hanon left.
"Come on Luchia, let's surf." Kaito smiled.
"Hooray!" Luchia said happily.
"Oh God! You are going out as well?" Gaito said in shock.
"Don't worry. We will come back at night as well." Luchia said happily, "See ya."
So Luchia and Kaito left. The others gave a big sigh.
"Well. Let's prepare something for dinner tonight." Maki said.
Nikora nodded as the two of them went to the kitchen room to prepare dinner while the others just sat and lay around with Seira watching some T.V.
Hanon looked around for Nagisa although she knew she had little chance. After looking around for sometime, she sighed and was about to walk home when she finally found Nagisa, who is sitting on the bench.
Nagisa was sitting idle on the bench, thinking about the awesome moments that happened on school today. He smiled about it but when he looked at his Mermaid Flute, the terrible flashbacks about the terrible event, when he was only 8 years old, started to appear around his head. Nagisa clutched his head and was groaning in pain. He then felt a warm pat on his head. When he looked up, he saw Hanon patting on his head.
"Hanon." Nagisa said.
"It's still hurting your head, right?" Hanon asked sadly, "That event in which they tried to take your flute away."
Nagisa nodded sadly as Hanon sat beside him.
"Oh God. I need another year to get that out of my head." Nagisa said sadly.
"Don't worry Nagisa. Try to stay strong for another year." Hanon smiled as she touched Nagisa's hand where the Mermaid Flute, "And after that, your head will be free from all those flashbacks."
"Yeah but..."
"We are all with you Nagisa. Just stay calm. Did these flashbacks occur when you saved us indirectly by playing the flute when we were in trouble?"
Nagisa shook his head. Hanon smiled at him.
"If that Watahi guy comes out and starts to look for you, I swear I will give him the most humiliating moment that he will bound to forget." Hanon said.
"Gee. Thanks Hanon." Nagisa smiled.
They stared at the evening sky for a few minutes.
"Where is your mother by the way?" Hanon asked.
"She's in the kingdom." Nagisa said, "She told me she has some work to do there and she's returning tonight or tomorrow morning."
"I see. I was also thinking about it. What about your father?"
"Gone to fishing."
"So right now, he is with you at the moment."
Nagisa nodded.
"Well I have to go now Nagisa." Hanon said, "We can have a longer date next time. I just came here to check on you."
"I see. Thanks Hanon." Nagisa said.
Before Hanon left, she gave Nagisa a kiss on his forehead.
"Maybe I hope this can calm you down for now." Hanon smiled.
Both Hanon and Nagisa shared a laugh and then Hanon left. Nagisa looked at the Mermaid Flute and smiled at himself.
Rina was looking for Masahiro by going to the places they usually go. It's a bit of a long search but then she saw the green scenarios all around. Immediately she realized that Masahiro is there. So she went there and found Masahiro, who is sitting on the bench.
Masahiro was enjoying the green scenario as usual but something was bothering him as he continuously rubbed his head. He then felt a pat on his head. When he looked up, it is Rina. Rina is smiling at him.
"Rina." Masahiro said.
"It seems like something is bothering you." Rina smiled, "Why not you tell me?"
Masahiro nodded as Rina sat beside him. Rina then patted his head as Masahiro looked down for a moment.
"The one that's bothering was my nightmare I had yesterday." Masahiro said, "The nightmare was that you and I got trapped in the cage and the water demon was holding the locket which became the Mermaid of Hatred. She then first blinded your friends before blinding us."
"I see but it's just a nightmare." Rina smiled, "So long as the locket remains with you, it's very unlikely to happen and it will never happen."
"I know that very well, Rina."
"And I really have faith in you and your locket Masahiro. You saved all of us when we were doomed even though it was indirectly."
"Thanks."
"You know what? I'm really enjoying spending time with you now that all our fears have been removed. What do you think?"
"Well. Who do you think is more precious?"
"Hmm... Maybe both you and my friends."
"Choose one."
"Well..."
Masahiro laughed a little bit.
"Just kidding." Masahiro laughed.
"Masahiro." Rina whined before starting to laugh as well.
In fact, they laughed so hard that they hugged each other, still laughing. They then looked at the green sky for a few minutes.
"I haven't seen your mom for a while. Where is she by the way?" Rina asked.
"My mom is in your kingdom." Masahiro said, "She told me that she has some work to do there."
"I see. What about your father?"
"He is gone on a small business trip. Both my mom and dad will be coming tomorrow."
"So right now, you and your butler are living there."
Masahiro nodded.
"I think I have to go now. I just came to check on you." Rina said.
"I see. We can have a longer date." Masahiro said, "All that excitement that happened in school today must have drained all of us."
"Yeah. I know. Masahiro..."
"..."
Rina then gave a kiss on Masahiro's cheeks.
"Take care of yourself Masahiro." Rina smiled, "May Aqua Regina-sama and your locket protect you from dangers."
"You take care of yourself as well." Masahiro smiled.
Both of them smiled at each other as Rina left. Masahiro looked at his locket and the green sky before smiling at himself.
Kaito is surfing on the waves while Luchia is watching him surf. She was a bit afraid that some water demons might trip Kaito while he surfs but as minutes passed by, nothing happened. She then enjoyed Kaito surfing. Afterwards, Kaito finished surfing and met Luchia.
"Do you ever surf in the evening?" Luchia asked.
"Not really." Kaito said, "But I did it today just to cool my head down after all the fun we had at school."
"Not to mention the boy kiss." Luchia teased playfully.
"Luchia!"
Luchia let out a loud laugh. Soon Kaito began to laugh as well.
"Luchia. Do you think Coco and Noel know that some mermaids might have a family?" Kaito asked.
"Very unlikely because only the three of us and others in Pearl Piari now know about the law the former mermaid princess knew it earlier." Luchia said, "And besides if you are talking about Hotoshi-kun and Kazama-san, then I think that their moms might not have told them about it."
"You are right Luchia. We better not tell the boys about the fact we discovered. We just built a good friendship with them."
"I know. Kazama-san is really a nice and funny person and he is really sensible about who loves whom and I think that same goes for Hotoshi-kun as well."
"I'm glad they became Masahiro's and Nagisa's best friend for life."
Suddenly they heard some voices coming.
"Luchia! Kaito!"
It was Hanon as she and Rina ran to meet them.
"Hanon. Rina. Did you meet the boys?" Luchia asked.
"Yep. We sure did." Rina smiled, "Otherwise why would we here right now?"
"What about them?" Kaito asked.
"Well. Poor Nagisa is still suffering from those terrible flashback that happened to him." Hanon said sadly.
"Oh my." Luchia gasped in shock.
"Well if that Watashi bastard comes back, I will drown him right in the ocean." Kaito growled.
"I'm with you." Rina said happily.
"Rina. What about Hamasaki-san?" Luchia asked.
"Masahiro had a nightmare yesterday in which me and him are both trapped with a water demon holding the locket which became the Mermaid of Hatred. She or he then first blinded you guys before blinding us."
"Kyah! I don't want to be blinded!" Hanon cried.
"Come down Hanon. It's just a nightmare." Kaito said, "In reality, they tried to attack him and flash! They will be whining in pain as they got blinded."
"As long as he wears it around his neck." Rina smiled.
"True." Luchia said, "By the way, where are their moms?"
"They are in our kingdoms." Hanon said.
"The boys said that they will be coming tomorrow." Rina said.
"I see. Well it's getting dark now. Let's get back to Pearl Piari." Kaito said.
The others nodded as they headed home.
At night in Pearl Piari:
Hanon and Rina told the others about what happened when they saw the boys. Everyone reacted in different ways but Maki was pretty shock about Nagisa's case.
"WHAT?! That actually happened to him?!" Maki asked in shock, "Why didn't you tell me about this, Nikora? I could have helped him."
"That incident occured when he was only 8 years old." Nikora said.
"Only 8?!"
Everyone nodded at him. Maki sat in shock.
"Yukito showed us the article." Hanon said sadly, "It was very sad and I really cried a lot."
"Well we all felt sad for him." Yuri said.
"What happened to the ones who tried to kill him?" Maki asked.
"His parents and other associates were executed because they killed other children as well." Taki said, "But Watashi was given life sentence."
"Life sentence?" Seira asked in shock, "Anytime, he might escape from prison!"
"So what? If he comes again, I will throw him into the ocean." Kaito growled.
"YEAH!" Everybody cheered.
"But what about Masahiro? Did he have any bad luck?" Maki asked.
"Well in Masahiro's case, if he shows it or tells about it to anyone except us then his mom would turn into bubbles." Rina said.
"I see. Well at least no one knows about his locket except us."
"Speaking about it, you were saying that Hamasaki-san had a nightmare." Hippo said in which Rina nodded, "What nightmare was it?"
"The nightmare was that we were held captive while the water demon had the locket which became the Mermaid of Hatred. She or he first blinded you guys before blinding me and Masahiro." Rina said.
"Now that's a bit scary." Sara gulped.
"Were we in his nightmare?" Gaito and Yuri asked curiously.
"I'm not sure. Masahiro plainly told me water demon." Rina said.
"What about me?" Sara asked.
"I bet he won't be able to sleep if you were there."
"I think that's true. You had so much hatred at that time in your heart." Luchia said, "If you had that locket, we would have been really in big trouble."
"Yeah. Talk about also getting weak if the entire castle is black." Hanon gulped.
"It would have been cool to see the black castle. Ha Ha Ha!" Gaito let out an evil laugh.
"Ha Ha Ha. Very funny." Kaito said.
"Hey!"
Everybody laughed loudly. Suddenly, there was a door knock.
"I wonder who could it be?" Nikora wondered as she ran to open the door.
But when she did so, she and others couldn't believe their eyes. It was then other Sarah! Sarah smiled at them.
"Hello people. It's good to meet you." Sarah smiled
"Who are you?" Both Nikora and Taki asked in confusion.
But when Luchia saw Sarah, she immediately leaped in joy and ran to hug Sarah.
"SARAH! You're here!" Luchia said happily.
"Well it's good to see you again princess." Sarah smiled.
"Princess?" Taki asked in shock, "Wait so that means..."
"Yep. She is one of the mermaid from Luchia's kingdom." Hanon said.
"And also our English teacher." Rina said.
"Wait. So she is the English teacher you are talking about?" Maki asked.
"Yep. She is the one." Luchia said happily.
"Surprised?" Kaito asked.
They were silent for a few minutes before Seira jumped in joy.
"OMG! I never knew that this school could be so popular." Seira said happily.
"It sure is and I'm glad to be there." Sarah smiled, "What's your name?"
"Seira. Mermaid Princess of the Indian Ocean."
"Whao! This young?"
"Well. She is not really the Mermaid Princess." Luchia said, "She's going to be the Mermaid Princess soon."
"No. I'm already the Mermaid Princess. Pure and simple." Seira whined in which everyone laughed.
"I'm Sara. I'm the former Mermaid Princess of the Indian Ocean." Sara smiled.
"Ah! Then it's really nice to meet you." Sarah smiled.
"I think it's going to be pretty tough to know which one of you is Sara and Sarah since your pronunciation is almost the same." Maki said.
"But there's no H in my name." Sara cried.
Everyone laughed.
"Well Hippo. How have you been?" Sarah smiled.
"I'm been fine, Sarah." Hippo smiled.
"I'm sure I have seen you somewhere in the palace." Nikora sighed, "But I just can't remember."
"That's okay." Sarah said, "What are your names by the way?"
"Nikora."
"Taki." Taki introduced herself.
"Maki." Maki introduced himself.
"I see." Sarah said.
"Say. Where are the other two?" Hanon asked.
"Other two? Who are they?"
"Well..." Rina gulped.
As you know by now everyone has greeted Sarah except Gaito and Yuri, who backed off a little bit because they are afraid that Sarah might recognize them and she might attack them. Their fears suddenly came true when Sarah, unfortunately, saw them. When she saw them, her eyes are burning in pink flames. Luchia and others saw it and realized that Gaito and Yuri are in big trouble!
"Well Well Well. Who do we have here?" Sarah asked evily.
"Hello." Gaito and Yuri asked meekly.
Then when Sarah took every one step forward, Gaito and Yuri took every one step backwards. Sarah picked up a stick she saw on the floor and is prepared to give Gaito and Yuri are beating of their life.
"Now it's time for you two to provide me a good explanation as to why you went rampage on our kingdom." Sarah said angrily.
"Well..." Gaito gulped.
But soon Kaito, Luchia, Hippo and Sara ran to Sarah.
"Sarah! Don't do it!" Luchia cried and pleaded, "I can explain what happened."
"Yeah. They had a tragic past." Kaito said.
"Tragic Past?" Sarah asked in confusion.
"Sarah. Please don't blame them. It's all my fault. I started all the destruction." Sara cried.
"Sara." Seira said sadly.
"Why are blaming yourself, Sara? I don't get anything at all." Sarah asked in confusion.
"Please Sarah-san. I'm in love with Yuri-san." Hippo said.
Sarah got even more confused when Hippo said that.
"Sarah. I think it's better to listen to their explanation." Nikora said.
"True. Besides, you were not there at that time in which their true nature has been told." Taki said.
"Well. This is getting interesting." Maki said.
Sarah thought for a moment.
"Okay. Let me hear you explanation." Sarah said as she threw the stick (which unfortunately landed on Hanon) and she sat on the sofa.
Gaito and Yuri sighed in relief. Luchia and others began their explanation.
15 minutes later:
Sarah was pretty shocked and surprised after all the explanations had been done. She first felt pity for Sara.
"I'm really sorry about what happened to you, Sara." Sarah said sadly, "You just went crazy without actually realizing your lover's reason."
"I know. If only I knew that reason before." Sara said sadly and cried.
"Please don't cry." Seira said sadly as she, Nikora and Taki comforted her.
"Yuri. I feel really bad about you as well." Sarah said, "You and Hippo's story reminds me about Juliet and Romeo."
"Yeah but I perished unfortunately." Yuri said sadly, "And Hippo-sama lives on."
"But then how were you able to come back alive?"
"It's a long story." Hippo said.
"I see. As for you Gaito, I don't understand one thing. If you really wanted to see your brother, why couldn't you do so?"
"I didn't know where he lived and I was got struck in the castle." Gaito said.
"Beside, Aqua Regina separated us when we were babies." Kaito said.
Sarah then felt pity for Gaito and Sara.
"So due to a misunderstanding and the failure to see your brother, both of you went on rampage and caused destruction in the sea, right?" Sarah asked.
Both Sara and Gaito nodded gleefully.
"Well. I will forgive you for this reason. But what about the other three mermaid princess?" Sarah asked.
"We will also tell them but I'm sure there's gonna be some hostile reaction since he also captured the two of them." Luchia said.
"We will explain them fully and we hope that they will understand." Rina said.
"They will believe me if I explained it." Seira said happily.
"And if you did tell them, they will think that you are hallucinating since you weren't there at that time." Hanon said.
"Oh. You're right. I wasn't there during Gaito's evil time."
"Were you there when the incident took place?" Maki asked.
"Of course." Sarah said, "Otherwise how would I have known them by now?"
"Oh."
Everyone laughed loudly.
"Sarah-san. When did you come to the human world?" Hippo asked.
"A few days or weeks ago." Sarah said, "I was bored so I decided to come here."
"But then how did you get enrolled as an English teacher in Luchia's school?" Nikora asked.
"Well I was roaming around when I suddenly bumped into the principal. She asked me if I knew English. I nodded and she told me that they needed a replacement as the previous teacher had resigned. So I accept her offer."
"And that turned out to be the best decision you have ever made." Taki said happily.
"True. Who would have thought I would meet the princess and her friends at that school?"
"And I was so happy that one of my people is the teacher which is you." Luchia said happily.
"Say Sarah. Do you have a boyfriend?" Hanon smiled.
"Boy...Boyfriend?" Sarah gulped.
"Yep. Boyfriend." Rina smiled, "Plain and simple."
Everyone looked at Sarah with excitement all around their faces.
"Nope." Sarah said.
Everyone's faces turned into disappointment at once, except Sara.
"Guys. Have some sense." Sara said, "How can she find love so quickly?"
"Well that happened in Luchia's case." Gaito smiled, "Love at first sight."
"And how did you know about that?" Kaito asked.
"I just guessed."
Everyone laughed loudly.
"Where's your home by the way?" Nikora asked.
"The palace is my home." Sarah said.
Everyone's jaws dropped in shock.
"Wait. So you swim to the human world and later swim back to the palace?" Gaito asked in shock.
Sarah nodded.
"You do realize how difficult would that be to swim fast to the human world so that you don't get late in school." Seira said.
"And not only that, you have to make sure no one sees you in the mermaid form because lots of people come out in the morning." Yuri said.
"Yep and you do know what will happen if they see you in your mermaid form." Hippo said.
"I know and I'm up for it." Sarah said.
"I feel really bad for you that you have to swim in and out so many times." Hanon said sadly.
"It sure must be tiring for you, right?" Rina asked.
Sarah nodded.
"Why not you live with us?" Kaito asked.
"Eh?" Sarah was a bit puzzle.
"Kaito's right, Sarah. You are welcome to live with us." Luchia smiled, "As the mermaid princess, I have to make sure that all of you are okay and that your welfare is my concern."
"Well you forgot to give her the address of Pearl Piari. What about that?" Hanon asked.
"It was just that I forgot!"
Everyone laughed. Sarah thought for a moment.
"Well princess. I will think about it once I go back to the palace." Sarah said, "I will let you know my decision at school."
"Okay." Luchia said happily.
"And we will be enrolling Seira at school." Nikora smiled.
"Yipee!" Seira jumped happily.
"Wow! That will be very interesting." Maki smiled.
"But which class are you going to enroll her?" Rina asked.
"The first year of course." Taki said.
"With Nagisa and Hotoshi?" Hanon gasped.
"Yep. With them." Hippo said.
"But isn't she bit too young to go to school?" Gaito asked.
"Sure she is young but there is Hotoshi and Nagisa in the class." Sara said.
"And she already has us as well." Kaito said.
"Can we tell Nagisa about this?" Hanon asked.
"No. Please don't." Seira pleaded, "I want to surprise them."
"Oh. I bet the boys will be in a really good surprise."
"I hope so too." Luchia smiled.
"Speaking about the boys, I haven't seen their parents." Sarah said, "Where are they?"
"Oh. Their moms are in our kingdoms while Nagisa's dad has gone fishing." Hanon said.
"Masahiro's dad went for a small business trip." Rina said.
"Both of them will be coming tomorrow." Luchia said.
"Oh. So you even knew about them?" Nikora asked.
"Yep. What happened was that when I first met the princess and her friends, I asked then that why they weren't coming back." Sarah said, "It was then I got the reason and I was in awe after hearing the reason. Who could have thought they would be the sons of the mermaids?"
"Not just mermaids. Former Mermaid Princesses." Taki said.
"Exactly. I was awe-struck."
"But did you meet them?" Hippo asked.
Sarah shook her head gleefully.
"Don't worry. They will come back." Sara smiled, "And then you will get to meet them."
"Does Nagisa and Masahiro know about you?" Maki asked.
"I met them also when the princess and others told me about them." Sarah said.
"So that means they must have told their mothers about you." Gaito said.
"And what about Kazama-san and Hotoshi?" Yuri asked.
"Them?! I thought that if we tell them then they will be upset."
"But you do know them now indirectly." Seira said happily.
"Yep. We sure did."
Everybody cheered.
"We saw that they are drawing the Mermaid Princess of the Arctic Ocean and the South Pacific Ocean." Sarah said.
"I think Luchia and all of us know it by now." Gaito said.
"And also we heard that Hotoshi got a birthday present from his mom, which was given to her from the kingdom, when he was 6."
Everyone suddenly became shocked.
"So he got a birthday present from South Pacific kingdom?" Hippo gasped.
Sarah nodded.
"Do you know what's the present?" Taki asked.
"Nope." Sarah said.
"What about you girls?" Maki asked.
"We also don't know." Hanon said sadly.
"But it would be really interesting to see what the present is." Rina said.
"I'm wondering. Does Coco really know Hotoshi's mother?" Luchia asked.
"I'm not sure. I'm also wondering if Noel knows Kazama's mother." Nikora said.
"Maybe yes. Maybe no." Yuri sighed.
"But you can't deny the fact that Kazama and Hotoshi are really the sons of the mermaid from Arctic Ocean and South Pacific Ocean respectively." Sara smiled.
"But did you guys know about it in the first place?" Sarah asked.
"We sure did." Seira said happily.
"How so?"
"Well first of all. Kazama and Hotoshi has the same indigo and yellow hair and eye color." Maki said.
"And they are hoping that they can go to the Arctic Ocean and the South Pacific Ocean." Nikora said.
"They were also staring at us suspiciously." Gaito said, "Which means that their moms must have certainly told them about what we were doing."
"And finally, indigo and yellow are their favorite color." Hippo said.
"That's it!" Kaito said happily.
Everyone jumped a little bit.
"What's it?" Luchia asked.
"There can be groups." Kaito asked.
"You know it's not the time now to play games." Gaito said.
"No. I mean Sea Groups." Kaito said.
"Huh?" Everyone was a bit confused.
Kaito stood up for a moment.
"Well. One of the group will be called 'The Pacific Team'." Kaito said.
"Pacific Team?" Sarah asked.
"Yeah. Me, Luchia, Coco and Hotoshi."
It was then Luchia realized what Kaito was talking about and she jumped happily.
"I finally got your point, Kaito." Luchia said happily, "Me and Kaito are from the North while Coco and Hotoshi-kun are from the South but all four of us are from the Pacific."
Kaito nodded.
"Wow. That's that really getting interesting." Nikora smiled.
Then Hanon began jumping in joy.
"What are you so happy about Hanon?" Yuri asked.
"One group has already being formed which is 'The Atlantic Team'." Hanon said happily, "Isn't it Rina?"
"Yep. Me and Masahiro from the North while you and Nagisa from the South." Rina smiled.
"Oh!" Everyone then realized.
"So one group has already being formed." Taki said, "The Atlantic Team which are Hanon, Nagisa, Rina and Masahiro."
"And another will be formed soon." Sarah said, "The Pacific Team which are Luchia, Kaito, Coco and Hotoshi."
"That's it? Only two groups?" Gaito asked.
"No. There's another one." Kaito said, "The South Pole Team."
"The South Pole Team?" Sara asked.
"Yep." Luchia said.
"Who could that be?" Hippo asked.
"Karen, Noel and Kazama-san."
"You got a good point, Luchia." Yuri said, "Both Noel and Kazama-san are from the Arctic Ocean while Karen is from the Antarctica Ocean."
"Wait. Only three?" Maki was surprised, "What about Karen?"
"Well. Karen did fell in love but he is just a human." Rina said.
"I feel really bad for her." Hanon said sadly.
"I wonder if Karen will call Kazama-san 'Oni-Chan' since Noel is her sister and Kazama-sam will become Noel's lover?" Seira asked.
"Don't know." Sara sighed.
"So we have The Pacific Team." Sarah said.
"The Atlantic Team." Nikora said.
"And the South Pole Team." Maki said.
"What about the Indian Ocean Team?" Maki asked.
"Well. It can't be formed unless Seira does find her lover." Kaito said.
"I really home I can find some orange-haired boys soon." Seira said.
"I'm sure you will." Sara smiled.
"So untill them. I wish the three groups best of luck." Hippo smiled.
"Arigato Hippo!" Everyone said cheerfully.
"Now things are really getting interesting." Sarah smiled.
Suddenly they heard the tune of the flute which is almost exactly the tune of a mermaid princesses's song which is 'The Legend of Mermaid'. Everyone realized it except Sarah but she has absolutely fallen for that tune!
"Who's playing such a wonderful tune?" Sarah asked curiously.
"I know that." Hanon said happily, "It's...It's..."
The tune of the flute stopped and at the opened window, enter the the Mermaid Flute.
"It's the Mermaid Flute." Luchia said happily.
"The Mermaid Flute?" Sarah asked in confusion.
"Oh! You will get to know more about it." Rina smiled.
They all approached the Mermaid Flute.
"Hello people. I'm the Mermaid Flute, the talking flute." The voice said, "And now you will face the music of the mermaid princesses's songs."
"Yeah right. What a motto." Gaito smirked.
The Mermaid Flute jumped out of the window and jumped back again, this time carrying a stone (Nagisa is actually the one carrying it) and threw it at Gaito. It landed on his foot and Gaito jumped in pain. Everyone laughed loudly.
"Serves you right for insulting the Mermaid Flute." Hanon smiled evily.
"Are you okay Gaito?" Sara asked.
"Jeepers. Just for one motto." Gaito grumbled.
Everyone laughed.
"How are you, flute-san?" Hanon smiled as she shook the flute (she's actually shook Nagisa's hand!)
"Yep. We are all fine. What about you?" The voice said.
"Yeah. We are all fine as well." Kaito said.
"Are you the only one out there?" Hippo asked.
"Nope. We have another guest." The voice smiled.
Suddenly everything became green. Luchia and others knew about it but Sarah was pretty shocked and stared at herself.
"Why I am green all of a sudden?" Sarah asked in shock.
"Well I know who's here." Rina smiled.
Everything has suddenly gone back to its original color and in the opened window, enter the Mermaid Of Love locket.
"It's the Mermaid Of Love locket." Luchia said happily.
"The Mermaid of Love locket?" Sarah asked in confusion.
"Yep. You will get to know more about it." Hanon said.
"Hello everyone. I'm the Mermaid Of Love locket, the talking and flying locket." The voice said.
"As if you can talk." Gaito said.
The locket flew at Gaito and slowly spun around him. All of a sudden, the locket spun around quickly and Gaito got dizzy and fell on the floor.
"Never insult the Mermaid of Love locket." Rina smiled evily.
"Gaito-sama. Are you okay?" Yuri asked.
Maki threw a glass of water at Gaito and Gaito got up instantly.
"God. You take things seriously." Gaito sighed.
"How things go, ?" Rina smiled.
"Yep. Everything has gone well." The voice said.
"Well. We are glad." Hippo smiled.
Sarah took a closer look at The Mermaid Flute and The Mermaid of Love locket before smiling.
"Wow. Both of you are beautiful." Sarah smiled.
Meanwhile Nagisa, who is hiding under the opened window, and Masahiro, who is hiding beside the walls, suddenly knew Sarah's voice and got a big nervous.
"Masahiro. Sarah is here. What should be do?" Nagisa said slowly.
"Don't worry Nagisa. Just be cool and calm." Masahiro said slowly.
Then they returned to their voice acting.
"Ah thank you very much, Sarah." The voice smiled.
Sarah got shocked.
"How do you know about me?" Sarah asked in shock.
"That's because..." The voices smiled before singing:
We Know We Know Everything.
We Know We Know Everything.
"Now that reminds me of what happened in school today when it rained." Kaito smiled.
"I know right? It was totally awesome." Luchia said happily.
The locket looked closely at Sarah.
"Hmm...From the looks of you. You seem to be a North Pacific Mermaid." The voice said.
"Now how did you know about this?" Taki asked.
"Pink Pink."
"Well Luchia isn't Pink Pink." Hanon teased, "That means the locket doesn't recognize you as the North Pacific Mermaid Princess."
"Hanon!" Luchia whined.
Everyone laughed.
"Can I ask you some questions?" Sarah asked.
"Sure. You can." The voice said.
"But one at a time." Another voice said.
"I think it would be really difficult for you to ask two at the same time." Luchia said.
"Well do you want to ask first?" Kaito asked.
Sarah thought for a moment before pointing at The Mermaid of Love locket.
"Good luck. You're first." The voice smiled.
"Okay." Another voice said.
"Alright. So first the locket and then the flute." Hippo said.
"Well then all the best." Yuri said happily.
So Sarah and others approached the Mermaid of Locket first. But before that, Seira looked at the locket.
"Kyah! You are so shiny that I feel like I'm looking at the mirror." Seira squealed.
"Yeah. It's true. Since when did you become so shiny?" Rina asked.
"I was always shiny." The voice said.
"Can you excuse us for a minute?" Maki asked.
Then everyone was looking at the locket while combing their hair or putting powder, etc. When everything was done, all of them looked refresh.
"Okay. You may begin now." Sara said.
Then Sarah began her question.
"So since when you were discovered by them?" Sarah asked.
"As far as I know, they were watching my owner's celebration after he won the match and his coach lifted him up and that's how they saw it." The voice said.
"I heard your name before. Someone told me about you when I was little." Nikora said.
"I see."
"Who's your owner?" Sarah asked.
"I will give you a hint." The voice said happily, "Green Hair!"
Sarah thought for a moment before finally realizing it.
"OMG! You mean Masahiro Hamasaki?" Sarah gasped.
"Yep. It's him alright." The voice said happily.
"Did all of you knew about this?" Sarah asked.
"Yep. We knew about it before." Luchia said happily.
"So then why not he brings it at school?"
"NO! NEVER! NOT IN A MILLION OF YEARS!" The voice said.
"But why?"
"Because if he tells about it to anyone about it except you guys, then his mom would turn into bubbles."
"To make it simple, his mother's life is at risk if he shows it to others." Rina said.
"Yep."
Sarah felt pity at the locket.
"So what special abilities you have?" Sarah asked.
The locket then flew around them and the voice started to sing:
My name is The Mermaid Of Love Locket.
I blind enemies who dares to attack my owner or his friends, lover, family and parents.
Villain's songs are no match for my powerful shield.
Which also happens if they attack using some knives or whatever powers.
Everything becomes green within the owner's distance when I flash in green light.
And if the villains are in the Green Zone, they will be so weak.
That they cannot reach the power of their peak.
The more love, the more power.
After the voice finished singing and the locket finished flying, everyone clapped.
"Now that's a nice poem to explain your abilities." Yuri said.
"Wow! So as far as I hear right now, you are very powerful and the water demons will be terrified if they see you." Sarah smiled.
"I'm so powerful that I can even match the Panthalassa Power." The voice said.
"One but not two." Kaito said.
"Screw you!"
Everyone laughed.
"Do you have any weakness?" Sarah asked.
"Unfortunately I do." The voice said, "The Mermaid of Hatred."
"The Mermaid of Hatred?"
"Yeah. That name scared us a lot." Sara said.
"And we will be in a disadvantage if that happens." Luchia said.
"But why?" Sarah asked.
"Why?! It's because if that happens, then my design will change in which it will carry two small broken hearts instead and the color will be black." The voice said.
"Oh my. But what your powers?"
"They are the same but the color of the powers will be black and the mermaid princesses will be in trouble."
"Oh dear."
"Just to say it in simple, it cannot resist the owner." Rina said, "The change will happen if it is in the hands on the water demons."
"And the more hate, the more power." Hanon gulped.
"Yep. True enough." The voice said.
"But we shouldn't be worried now." Hippo said, "The sea is peaceful again."
"Yep. So untill a danger appears, you will be like this, right?" Maki asked.
"Yep." The voice said.
Sarah then stood up.
"Well locket. Thank you for your time." Sarah smiled, "Hope you keep the owner safe."
"Of couse I will and I will always will." The voice said.
"As for you Rina, hope that you and Masahiro can live peacefully with the protection of his locket."
"Thank you, Sarah." Rina smiled, "You will be protected as well."
Everyone smiled.
"Now shall we ask the Mermaid Flute some questions?" Taki smiled.
"Yipee." Hanon said happily.
"Okay flute. You are next." The voice said, "Good luck."
"Thanks." Another voice said, "I'm the Mermaid Flute, the talking flute and now you will face the music of the mermaid princesses's songs."
"Again this motto?" Gaito questioned.
"Yep. I will always said it."
"Brother, why you must be so mean to the Mermaid Flute?" Kaito asked.
"I'm fine with that talking flute." Gaito said, "But why does he have to say that we will face the music of the mermaid princesses's songs?"
"Cause I bet that you are scared that if it was there, then your ears will be busted." Luchia teased.
"Like hell no!"
Everybody laughed. Sarah then began to interview The Mermaid Flute.
"When you were discovered by them?" Sarah asked.
"Well. The owner's mom showed them the video about it and she explained about it." The voice said.
"Who's your owner by the way?"
"Dark blue hair."
Sarah thought for a moment before actually realizing it.
"Do you mean Nagisa Shirai?" Sarah gasped.
"Correct." The voice said happily.
"You knew about this as well?"
"We knew it before you as well." Kaito smiled.
"So maybe he could bring you at school."
"NO! NEVER EVER!" The voice cried.
"But why?"
"Because unlike Masahiro's mom, the owner's mom doesn't turn into bubbles even if he tells it to anyone and that's the weakness."
"Weakness? But it shouldn't be."
Everyone then realized what it is going to happen next.
"Really? Well let me tell you what happened to him when he was only 8 years old." The voice said as he begins the story (Nagisa is the one actually telling the story).
5 minutes later:
After the voice, which is Nagisa, told about Nagisa's near-death experience, Sarah was in total shock and cried a bit in which Luchia comforted her.
"They wanted to kill him just for you?" Sarah asked in shock.
"Yep. Good thing there was a police officer nearby." The voice said.
"Not only that those Watashi brats killed other children as well." Another voice said, "And it broke my heart."
"It broke all of our hearts." Rina sadly said.
"Yep and now Nagisa-kun is still suffering from these terrible flashback events." Luchia said sadly.
"I'm sure his mom must have showed you the article, right?" The voice asked.
"I cried a lot when I saw that article." Hanon sadly said.
"So to make things simply: He did play in front of everyone but after that incident, he didn't want to play in front of everyone anymore." Sarah sadly said.
"Well untill Hanon found him playing and sitting in the tree." The voice said.
"Really?"
"Yes and when I told him about what happened to him, he got scared and started crying so I comforted him." Hanon said.
"So what happened to those criminals?"
"They were executed." Nikora said.
"But Watashi was given life sentence." Taki said.
"Life sentence?! Are they crazy? He might escape anytime." Sarah said in shock.
"I will throw him in the water if he appears again." Kaito said.
"Yep and we will mysteriously keep pulling him down untill he drowns." Luchia said.
"Yeah!" Everyone cheered.
"But right now at least he is still safe with us." Maki said.
"I know that." Sarah said, "Anyway what special abilities do you do have?"
Nagisa, who is hiding under the opened window, brought out his cap and put it on the Mermaid Flute. The Mermaid Flute began to sing:
My name's The Mermaid Flute.
And now you will face the music of the Mermaid Princesses's songs.
My tune is almost exactly their tune.
Which distracts the water demons and ignores their mission.
Little did they know that pretty soon, they will be send to their dimension.
When new songs appears, this little statue goes for a spin.
And after few spins, it finds a new song.
The little statue also warns him if there is any danger.
That's all folks.
And with that, the Mermaid Flute bowed in which everybody clapped.
"Bravo! Bravo!" Sara and Taki smiled.
"Just one question." Sarah said, "How does this little aqua mermaid statue warn him if there's any danger?"
"It will glow if he approaches the danger zone and will continue to glow untill he is safely out of it." The voice said.
"I see."
"Well you do already know it's weakness right now, don't you?" Gaito asked.
Sarah nodded and stood up.
"Well . I hope that you do take care of your owner." Sarah said.
"And listen to the tune of course." Seira said happily.
"Exactly. As for you Hanon, you yourself know what to do."
"Of course. I will enjoy the sweet tune of the flute but I have to protect Nagisa from getting attacked." Hanon said in determination.
"Well that ends the questioning session, right?" Maki asked.
Everybody smiled. Suddenly The Mermaid Flute and The Mermaid of Love locket jumped out of the window, much to everyone's surprise.
"Why in the world did they leave?" Kaito wondered.
And then out of nowhere...
"RAHHHHH!" It's none other than Masahiro and Nagisa (which the others didn't notice), with a scary Frankenstein mask and a dragon mask.
"AHHHH!" All of them screamed in horror.
"OMG! It's...It..." Sarah gulped.
All of a sudden there was a roar of laughter. The boys then removed their mask and started laughing very loudly.
"Nagisa? Masahiro?" Taki asked in surprise.
"You got goosebumped for the third time!" Masahiro laughed.
"Strike three! You are out!" Nagisa laughed.
"How can we get fooled by you so many times?!" Yuri and Hippo whined.
"Wait? You got fooled by them before?" Sarah asked.
"Yeah. Nagisa-kun fooled us yesterday afternoon." Luchia said.
"And Masahiro yesterday evening." Kaito said.
"God! How we were never able to recognize them?" Gaito asked in shock.
Hanon, Rina and Seira began to laugh as well.
"What's the matter, Seira?" Sara asked.
"Well. It's just that I failed to recognize them cause they changed their voices. How could it be that they were able to fool us three times?" Seira asked and laughed.
"Our boys are so funny. Letting us think that The Mermaid Flute and The Mermaid of Love locket are the ones who are actually doing the talking." Hanon laughed.
"I have no idea what reaction would have been from Karen, Noel and Coco if they were here." Rina laughed.
"No idea but they would really die if laughter." Sara smiled.
Hanon and Rina then both dragged their respective boyfriends inside and together they started laughing on the floor. Seira also started laughing on the floor.
"Well would you look at them?" Nikora smiled, "The aqua and green couple or The Atlantic Team are having a laugh of their life."
"And Seira is also laughing as well." Taki said.
"Okay five of you. Calm down by now." Maki said, "You might end up getting chocked."
All five of them stopped laughing though Seira was laughing a little bit.
"Sarah. When did you come?" Masahiro asked.
"Half and hour ago." Sarah said.
"Wait. So you knew this place?" Nagisa asked.
"No. Princess gave me the address."
"It looks like you two boys really need a glass of water after all the talking you did." Nikora said.
Both boys nodded and Nikora ran to get two glass of water.
"Next time, we will fool you instead." Hanon said.
"Too bad you already told us, Hanon-chan." Masahiro smiled, "Now we won't get fooled."
"What?! Oh no!"
Everybody laughed.
6 minutes later:
"You two will really become great voice actors." Luchia said happily as she gave the glass of water to the boys.
"Really? How so?" Masahiro and Nagisa asked.
"Well. You were able to change your voices in such a way that we ended up realizing that The Mermaid Flute and The Mermaid of Love locket were actually the ones talking." Kaito said.
"You were able to fool us three times." Nikora said, "I wonder how you were able to do that?"
"Not just three times. Three straight times!" Taki said.
"Twice from afternoon and evening." Nikora said.
"And now tonight, both of you pulled out a SUPER Prank!" Hippo said in which everyone laughed.
"You boys will be perfect voice actors." Maki smiled, "Think how much you will get paid."
"Yeah. We know. Thanks." Masahiro smiled.
"When did you start all of this?" Yuri asked.
"We just thought of it from our minds." Nagisa said.
"You guys should really start a show." Seira said.
"Yeah. You guys did give us a lot of laughs." Sara smiled.
"And what show would that be?" Nagisa asked.
"Let's see..." Hanon thought for moment before she finally realizing it, "Bingo! The Mermaid Flute..."
"...and The Mermaid of Love Locket Show." Rina smiled.
"Well that's a good name for a show." Gaito said.
"How about you perform it at school?" Sarah asked.
Both Nagisa and Masahiro are shocked.
"No! Never!" Both boys said.
"They got a point." Luchia said, "How can Nagisa perform his flute in front of everyone after what happened to him before?"
"And how can Masahiro show his locket if his mom turns into bubbles?" Kaito asked.
"Oh! You got the point." Sarah said, "I'm very sorry boys."
"It's okay." Nagisa said.
"Why not you perform here?" Nikora asked.
Both boys liked that idea.
"Well. That's a good idea, Nikora." Masahiro said, "At least we know you guys."
"I think I like that idea." Nagisa smiled.
Everyone smiled at the boys.
"So Gaito. Enjoy the spin?" Masahiro asked.
"What spin?" Gaito asked.
Yuri then realized what Masahiro was talking about and she smiled.
"Yeah. Gaito-sama went merry go around with your locket and he thoroughly enjoy it." Yuri said happily.
"No I didn't!" Gaito whined, "It went so fast that I got dozed off!"
Everybody laughed.
"Sorry if my Mermaid Flute threw a rock at you." Nagisa said.
"You threw the rock cause I just bickered at it's motto." Gaito growled.
"How can I throw the rock?"
"How can a flute have hands?"
"Well..."
More laughter followed.
"How about we can make the show interesting by adding our E-Pitch microphones on the cast?" Hanon asked happily.
"We will do the voice acting." Rina smiled.
"So it will be The Mermaid Flute and The Mermaid of Love Locket Show with E-Pitch Microphones." Luchia said happily.
Everyone agreed except...
"But Hanon-san and Rina-san. There can be a problem based on that." Hippo said.
"And what could that be?" Hanon asked.
"Don't you have to transform into your idol forms to have the E-Pitch microphone in your hands?"
Everybody then realized and then gave a big sigh.
"OH MAN!" Hanon and Rina whined in which everybody laughed.
