Kami's POV
"Kami…" a voice called.
"Kara?" I asked into the dark waters ahead of me.
"Kami! Save me!" Kara's voice lingered in the waters.
"Kara, where are you?" I asked her.
"The dark one…please…Save me!" Kara's voice was getting farther and farther away.
"Kara, wait for me!" I screamed and swam towards her voice.
I awoke very cold and frightened. I just have to save her! I got up from the couch and looked around. It was light out.
"Hello?" I called into the house.
No one replied. I looked around the house and found a note.
Kami,
Luchia and I went to the store to get something for lunch. Hope you like sushi.
-Kaito
I sat back down on the couch and turned on the TV. I flipped through the channels and got bored so I got up and checked my temperature. My temperature is normal, I should go home… I looked around and saw the notepad so I then started to ponder through the drawers for a pen. Ah ha! Found one! I started writing a note to Luchia and Kaito:
Dear Kaito or Luchia…
I checked my temperature and it is normal and I'm feeling great. I packed up my stuff and I am now going home to the hotel. Thanks for having me. I hope I wasn't too much trouble. Bye.
-Kami
I got all my stuff and started toward the hotel. BOOM! The thunder crashed and it started to pour halfway through the trip home. Then I realized I had forgotten my anklet. I was already starting to change into a mermaid. WOAH! Not good! I had better find shelter, and FAST. I screamed and ran under a huge tree. It was dry underneath and I sat down, drying myself with one of my shirts in my bag. It was still a 20 minute walk home. How am I supposed to go home??
Luchia's POV
"Kami, we're home!" I shouted into the huge house.
"Luchia, there's a note." Kaito said as he read it.
"She went home." Luchia whispered.
"Hey, she forgot her anklet." Kaito said.
BOOOM!!! The thunder crashed outside. Oh my god. She's going to transform in that rain! I have to find her!
"Sorry, Kaito. I have to leave. Now!" I yelled and ran out the door, luckily I still had Nikora's anklet with me.
"Ok, then." Kaito said.
I rushed out into the rain.
"Kami, where are you?" I screamed out into the rain.
Then I saw a faint teal glow in the distance. I ran towards the glow. The glow was getting brighter and brighter. Finally I saw Kami sitting under a tree, trying to say dry. I ran towards her and opened my umbrella for her to use. She got up and I helped her over to the hotel.
"What happened?" Nikora asked with a surprised look on her face.
"I-I forgot m-my anklet at Kaito's when I l-left his house." Kami stuttered.
I sneezed. I guess I'm not fully recovered from my cold. I started going up the stairs to my room.
Kami's POV, 1 day later
Saturday. I love Saturdays. I think I'll go to the beach today. Maybe I'll do some surfing. I brushed my dirty-blonde hair and walked downstairs.
"Good morning everyone! How is everybody?" I practically sang when I entered the kitchen.
Everyone looked up and smiled.
"I'm fine." Nikora said.
"I'm fantastic!" Hanon said with a huge smile.
"Sick." Luchia said while coughing.
"Oh, Luchia. Thank you for coming after me yesterday. You're the best!" I said to her.
"Hey, Kami. Do you want to come with me and Rina to the beach?" Hanon asked.
"Sure!" I said happily. I was going anyways.
"Let's go." Rina said.
We walked to the beach and found a spot on the sand. I laid out the towels and set up the umbrella. Rina walked over to Maki's restaurant to get some sodas and other junk food. I sat down and sighed.
"What's wrong?" Hanon asked.
"I'm bored... Can I go surf?" I asked Hanon.
"Sure. I don't mind. I'll call you when Rina comes back." She replied.
"Thanks." I said and ran to grab my surfboard.
These waves are perfect! Well, almost perfect. Not as good as Hawaii's waves. I am so homesick. I wish Kara were here. I thought as I surfed. I looked down and checked if I was wearing my anklet. Yup. That's good. I don't want to turn into a mermaid…that would be bad.
I surfed for twenty minutes then Hanon called me.
"Kami, food's here!" she yelled.
I surfed towards the shore and ran towards Hanon and Rina.
"Oh, wow. I love nachos!" Hanon said as she ate half a thing of nachos.
I ate some popcorn and drank soda.
"Hey!" A voice yelled.
Rina and Hanon turned at the same time. I just sat there.
Kaito was running towards them. I should stay away for a while… Luchia really likes him so…
"Hi." Rina said.
"I'm going surfing now; you want to come, Kami?" Kaito asked.
"I just finished surfing and I don't want to surf on a full stomach, sorry." I replied.
He looked kind of shocked and so did Hanon and Rina. I just sipped my soda.
"Ok, then." Kaito shrugged then ran into the ocean.
I sighed.
"I thought you liked him…" Rina said.
"Luchia and Kaito are a better match, besides, Luchia was here first." I said with hurt in my voice.
Now they were more shocked than before. I shrugged and continued to sip my soda. I started to watch the surfers. Mostly Kaito.
