Finally after braving the storm and thanking God that I was half mermaid, I found Arnold. During the search, Phoebe disappeared. Oh well. Arnold was okay, well if when your knocked out you can be called okay. Anyway I picked up Arnold and with all my strength I managed to carry him all the way to the shoreline. I transformed into my human form and dragged Arnold onto the sand of the beach. I checked his pulse to see if he was alive. Thank God, he is. Good. I really don't want to lose my bestfriend. Arnold started stirring while I ran and got help. By the time the help arrived Arnold was awake but still weak and dizzy so, he was brought back to the castle and I was thrown outside since I wasn't royalty. I'm not joking, I was thrown out, literally. I sneaked into the castle and waited by Arnold's bedroom, I couldn't go in since people were there. I wondered what had happen to Arnold and how he managed to survive that storm. I was too busy thinking to notice a figure that sneaked behind me and went into Arnold's room.
Phoebe's POV:
I began to cry. I lost Gerald and I'm so scared. What I'm I do? I haven't found Helga and don't even know if Arnold is okay. I thought as I swam faster, searching through the seas for my bestfriend. I wondered where she could be. On my way, I bumped into Rhonda. Rhonda is one of the princesses from the kingdom next to us. She's a complete snob and is always teasing Helga and I. She even has a maid named Nadine doing everything for her, just because she's rich. Nadine is so nice too. She's always smiling and sticking up for Rhonda when others call her names. She's a loyal friend, A dumb one but atleast she's trustworthy. Instead of actually talking to Rhonda or getting into a fight I ducked behind some seaweed. Rhonda and Nadine swam by. I sighed and heard a noise behind me. I screamed but it was too late.
Helga's POV:
It was all too good to be true. I met my true love today. I saved his life and got to sing him a song. I want to meet him again and tell him my name. I wonder, will he even remember me? How will I even find him? I thought as I stared out into the distance. he was human and I'm just a mermaid. I frowned and began to cry.
Regular POV;
"Why are you crying Little girl?" Asked A voice. Helga turned around and faced her intruder. She rubbed her eyes and looked at the figure but for some reason, no shape will form. "Don't cry little girl, have some faith. Are all mermaid as silly as you? How did you expect to find your true love by just floating there? Your useless." Replied the figure. "I'm not and I'm gonna find him you see." Responded Helga as the figure growled and replied "How do you suppose you do that?" Helga smiled.
I have often dreamed
Of a far-off place
Where a great warm welcome
Will be waiting for me
Where the crowds will cheer
When they see my face
And a voice keeps saying
This is where I'm meant to be
I will find my way
I can go the distance
I'll be there someday
If I can be strong
I know ev'ry mild
Will be worth my while
I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong
I am on my way
I can go the distance
I don't care how far
Somehow I'll be strong
I know ev'ry mile
Will be worth my while
I would go most anywhere to find where I belong
~ Helga stopped singing and the figure smiled and answered "Maybe you can be with your prince, but it won't be easy! Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!" The figure vanished, leaving a shocked mermaid. "A Prince?" Helga whispered to herself. ~
Arnold's POV
I remember the fear of falling into the water and water invading my lungs and darkness. Then I heard a lovely voice calling to me, giving me faith and I open my eyes to an angel. Atleast, I thought she was. If I told people about her, they problemly think I'm crazy but I gotta see that girl again. I opened my eyes and tried to stand up but failed miserably, I was so dizzy and I felt my body fall back o the mattress. Maybe I should look for this mysterious savior and thank her. There's something about her, I feel as if she's the one but I know nothing of her. I thought and looked around the room. My glance fell upon a woman with brownish-redish hair in a bun and freckled with a black dress on. I guess she was the nurse, I don't think she was the one that saved me. I smiled and turned toward the girl.
Regular POV:
"Hello my name is Lila. How are you feeling young prince?" questioned Lila as she glared at the prince with hatred. Arnold blinked and felt uneasy with her staring at him and turned away. "I feel kind of sick, What happened?" Arnold Asked and Lila laughed. "You don't remember. You practically drowned in a storm that appeared of out nowhere. It's a good thing. Your all right," Answered Lila as smirked. Arnold looked at her and shook his head "Someone saved me? Did you see her? Please tell me." Replied Arnold as Lila turned to him and blew magic dust in his face. Arnold's eyes became unfocused and blank. "Good, now what did this girl look like?" questioned Lila. "She has blond hair, blue eyes and the most beautiful voice, I ever heard." Answered Arnold as his eyes closed and he fell into a deep slumber. Lila growled as she turned back into Dark wizard. "That stupid Helga, How did she save the prince? He was supposed to die. Oh well. This must be dealed with but I'll need some help. No mermaid shall be with the prince since I shall rule and only evil that prevail this kingdom." Shrieked the Dark wizard as she vanished from view. As Arnold's bestfriend Gerald walked in. Gerald looked all around the room. "I was so sure that someone was in here." He muttered as the skies began to darken.
