Steve rogers thought he would never see his friend again. A long time ago Steve nearly drowned. How was he saved? By a mermaid named crystal. From that point on, they became close friends, meeting every summer. That was until steve went to war.

6. Chapter 6

About two months after the crash, I was still staying near the plane. And today, I found a way in. I pulled off a broken piece of metal and swam through the gap. I swam around until I found him. Steve's eyes were closed and he had some dirt and dry blood on his face. I smiled a bit, tears forming in my eyes. I ran my hand across his cheek. I closed my eyes and concentrated.

I was on a beach with Steve. We were hugging and both had a bit of tears in our eyes. We stayed there until we broke apart and I jumped in the water.

I opened my eyes and looked at Steve until something shiney caught my eye. I looked over and there was a compass with a picture of a lady in it. He found love.

I stayed for a bit but then decided to leave. But could I leave Steve in the past? He was the nicest person to me ever, supposedly my soulmate, but now I'm forced to leave. How can I do that? I sniffled and quickly swam away.

20 years later...

I was swimming towards a small cave I found years earlier until I hear someone behind me. I keep my pace, to make them think I don't know they're there, and right as they're about to attack, I jump out of the way. I turn around and see who it is. It's a pirate. He has a sword but when he slowly advances, an army of pirates appear behind him. There's about 10, all in swimsuits. They all advance on me but I don't do anything. I steady my breath and close my eyes. Right as they're about to attack me, I quickly hold out my arms and they all go flying back. Small tints of gold still fill the air. As they look around confused. I hold out my arm and flames of gold that's nearly invisible wraps around them. With a flick of my wrist, they fly back into a rock and collapse. I've learned that I got powers such as telekinesis and with an incounter of a pirate learned that I could grow legs and wings on land. I never liked hurting people but as a mermaid, it's the only way to survive. I hate to say it but I've gotten used to it. The pirates have gotten a lot worse lately, though it's probably because there aren't many more of us left.
