The stern was mostly destroyed, but what was left, wasn't as nice, or had as many things as the bow. The rooms were small, and there were bunk beds.
"I thought humans couldn't swim."said Ariel. "Only in the water. How could they stay up there? Hmm, you can't see out the little window too well from here, either. Just from the bottom. So, what would it be doing here?"she wondered.
"Maybe they wish they were under the sea."suggested Sebastian.
"Don't be silly, Sebastian. It's crowded in here."
Underneath, were giant rocks that were perfectly round, and that led to the back of the ship, and ended on the back.
"It looks like they go all the way out."
Ariel swam out again, and swam over to the propellers outside. She could only see the top part, as the rest of the propellers was buried in the mud. She began to try to remove it.
"Help me."she said to Sebastian and Flounder.
Flounder just said he didn't see how he could help her.
"So then you help me, Sebastain."she said.
Sebastian rolled his eyes.
"I don't really have time to be digging in the mud, Ariel."he told her.
"Please. We just have to see what's buried in here."she insisted.
Seeing how Sebastian and Flounder weren't going to help her, she kept on digging, determined to see the propellers. Soon, however, she was exhausted.
"You two just standing there, watching me labor away!"she exclaimed.
"That's just what you shouldn't do, Ariel."said Sebastian.
"And you're not doing anything to help!"
"We should leave this alone."
Ariel swam back into the ship, to see what other things she could find. Not as many things as she found in the debris outside, or in the bow. Mostly just beds, a pair of shoes or two, outside of that, nothing.
"This part of the ship is boring."she said in a disappointed voice.
"And tiring."said Flounder, tired from the long swim through the third class staterooms.
They came across the second class entrance, and entered the second class staterooms. They were a little bigger than the third class, but still, not as grand as the first class.
"I just gets more boring as you go back. None of the other ships was like that."
"I think this isn't like the other ships, Ariel."said Flounder.
"You're right on that."she said to him. "This one must have been very important to be so big, and then so strange. Stranger than all the others we've explored."
"All humans are strange."said Flounder.
Sebastian shook his head.
"They're barbarians,"he said.
"No, they're not."Ariel assured him.
"You've never met any, Ariel, or you'd agree with me."said Sebastian.
"Have you ever met a human, Sebastian."asked Flounder.
"No, but I've heard all the stories fish tell about them."he said.
"Lies."Ariel said, bored.
"You're calling me a liar, Ariel!"he exclaimed.
"You just said yourself you've never met one."she said.
Sebastian didn't know what to say.
"You just said I was a liar."
"You just admitted it yourself."
"But you said I was a liar. So, I lied."said Sebastian.
"So is he or isn't he a liar, Ariel?"
"But, Flounder, didn't you just hear Ariel say so herself!"
"But then what if Ariel's the one who's lying?"asked Flounder confused.
Sebastian decided to stay quiet.
"Flounder, you're confusing Sebastian."
"But…he's confusing me."
"Well, stop confusing each other."
She looked back at the ship.
"If only I could belong to the world of humans, and learn the real mystery of the ship."she said.
However, even Ariel, as mermaid would probably never learn the real secrets of the Titanic. She, and her two sidekicks, Flounder and Sebastian swam from the great ship.
