Chapter 4 this is the beginning

"Gavin I had warned you about her, that evil monster of the sea!" Roared the Old King, "She is dangerous and who knows what contraption she placed in that bottle."

"I don't care what it does as long as it brings me and Scylla together, that's all I want, and for once in my life I want to be happy." Gavin cried to the king and swam in a hurry.

"My only hope now is to get Scylla to notice that it is me." The brave lover said to himself as he swam closer to the shore.

Meanwhile Scylla was on her way to Gavin's lonely hut in the hilly area when she noticed his net on the grassy slope. "Gavin! Gavin where are you." Scylla called in playful way. "Scylla!" "Gavin?" "Come to beach." "Oh I'm coming."

But when she got close to the water Scylla froze, in fear. "Gavin where are yooo. ." "Look into my eyes Scylla, perhaps there the only way you'll remember me." Gavin came closer to the frighten child. "Look." It too some time before Scylla notice the "real" Gavin but she was still worried. "Here drink this, it will help you." Gavin said extending his hand, which held the poisoned bottle. The liquid smelled so desirable that she could not hold her protest much longer; Scylla snatched the bottle from Gavin's hand and drank it in one swallow. "Do you love me now?" The impatient man asked. "I . . .I feel funny." Scylla said before falling to the ground. "SCYLLA!!!" screamed Gavin as he watch the love of this life, be painfully transformed into a horrible monster of a serpent body and heads of dogs and was grabbed by the rocks and became one with them.

He could not help, no one could, well except for Circe but she was the one who did this, and Gavin needed revenge.

Jumping into the water again Gavin swam so fiercely that he became a blur in the bubbles.

"Circe, I'm calling on you to reverse this spell of dread that you placed on Scylla."

"It's to late young lover, but if I may be of help, I have always loved you and forever will."

"I don't want your love, never will I give into your childish jealously games."

"Fine you win," Circe answered in an untrusting smile.

"To land again you shall go, a beast you shall be in your outer layer and suffer until loves curse, to let no one have that sweet love I shall never have."

Transformed into a lion and thrown on to a far off island where he kept guard in the night and attacked young lover because of his jealously.

You see all fairy tales don't have to have a happy ending . . .

(If you hated it, I can't bend to please everyone.)
