Hey guys. Here's chapter 8. And if you think that 'Luchia' is spelled wrong and the right one is 'Lucia' then I am sorry but 'Luchia' looks better and is the American spelling. WOW. Long sentence…

Kami's POV

Oh great. A new student! I thought as our teacher introduced the new student. His name was Ryo. He had dark brown hair and deep blue eyes. He glanced around the classroom and his sight landed on me. I blinked.

"Ryo, you may sit next to Kami. Kami, please raise your hand." Our teacher said as she smiled.

I rose my hand and Ryo sat next to me.

"Hello, I am Ryo." He said.

"Hey, I'm Kami." I replied.

Later

"I saw you looking at Ryo in class today. You like him don't you." Hanon said as she smiled.

"No, I don't! I just…" I shouted, but stopped when I saw people looking at me.

"Yes, you do." Hanon whispered and then walked away.

"Hanon, wait up!" I yelled.

I ran up to Hanon, who was just about to open the door to the Pearl.

"Tsk, tsk. How are you going to tell Kaito you like another guy?" Hanon said when I came up to her side.

"Hanon, just drop it already!" I yelled.

"Alright, I can take a hint!" Hanon replied.

She walked into the hotel and dropped her things on the floor.

"HANON, PICK THAT UP RIGHT NOW!" Nikora yelled at Hanon.

"Woah, what's up with Nikora today?" I asked.

"No idea." Hanon replied.

"I am tired of cleaning up after you! Just because you're a mermaid princess, doesn't mean I am your maid!" Nikora yelled.

"…" Hanon was speechless.

"We're sorry, Nikora. It won't happen again!" I said as I pulled Hanon up the stairs to her room.

Hanon ran into her room and closed the door after Luchia and I were inside.

"Well…" Hanon said. "Kami likes Ryo!"

I looked at her in pure hate.

Luchia looked shocked.

"I did NOT say that!" I shouted.

"BE QUIET!" Nikora yelled at us from downstairs.

We burst out laughing.

After five minutes of continuous laughing we stopped and got back to talking.

"Do you really like him?" Luchia asked.

"No! You know who I like…I mean…ummm…" I said. Luchia looked disappointed and sad.

"Awkward…"Hanon sang. She was obviously making it more awkward by saying that.

"I'm going to go for a walk…" I said and ran out of the room.

I ran to the beach and sat down watching the sun set.

"We have to stop meeting like this." Kaito's voice said from behind me. I turned around, startled.

"Oh, Kaito it's you." I said.

"What's wrong? Last time I saw you sitting down here was when you were depressed. And then I saw you turn into a mermaid…" He said.

"Oh, yes, about that…" I started.

"That's alright I won't tell anyone." He replied.

"Ok thanks."

"So, why are you here?" he asked again and sat down next to me.

"Hanon thinks I like the new guy and she keeps bugging me about it. I don't like him! I like someone else." I said.

"So, who do you like?" He asked.

Oh god. What am I supposed to say? I can't tell him! "Awkward…"Hanon's voice echoed in my head.

"It's a secret…" I started.

"Alright I'll wait. You have to tell me sometime." He replied.

He walked away and I sighed. I got up and went to walk around the boardwalk. Just as I was passing through an alley way Gaito appeared.

"WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH ME? DO YOU REALISE THAT I AM SICK OF YOU! THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IN TWO WEEKS!" I screamed at him. He looked at me shocked.

"Well, I don't think my ears will ever heal from that…" Gaito said calmly. Then he pushed me against the wall holding me by my hands.

"This time, you won't get away." He smiled.

I struggled, but he was too strong. Just as I was going to scream for help he put his hand over my mouth.

"No use in screaming."

I bit his hand and then screamed for help.

"That's it! You're coming with me!" He declared.

"No!" I screamed.

Kaito's POV

I wonder who she likes… oh well. Oh wait a second… I have to go pick up my board from the shop on the board walk! I'll be late!

I rushed down the beach and onto the boardwalk.

"Hey, Kaito, your board is here!" The shopkeeper said.

"Thanks." I gave him the money and took my board.

I think I'll walk around the boardwalk for a while.

Then I heard:

"What do you want with me?!?" it sounded like Kami. Wait a second…

I rushed towards the scream and saw Raito - or whatever his name was – trying to push Kami into a round portal like thing.

"Stop that!" I yelled.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't Mr. Hero!" He laughed.

That made me mad. I ran towards him and he sidestepped sending me through the portal. He pushed Kami in as well and then closed it right after he said:

"That'll teach you two some manners."

Kami's POV

This is all my fault. If I had gotten away and stopped Kaito and falling in, then he would be safe. Now we're both stuck in a strange room with no door... or windows for that matter.

"Are you okay?" Kaito asked.

"I'm fine." I replied.

"So, how long do you think we'll be in here?" he asked.

"I have no idea." I said honestly.

I plopped down on the floor just as a huge television rose from the ground.

"Hello, and welcome to my…fun room!" Gaito's face appeared on the screen.

"…fun…room??" Kaito asked.

"I can make it rain, snow, thunder and lightning, tornados, you name it!" Gaito said happily. "If you can survive for eight hours you can leave."

"But… that means overnight with no food!" I yelled at the TV.

"Who said anything about no food?" Gaito said as a table rose from the ground the same way the TV did.

"Cheese and crackers?" I said with dismay

"Enjoy." He said than vanished.

I looked over to Kaito. He looked sort of frightened. I was terrified. I didn't have my anklet.

I took a cracker and bit it. Not that bad.

BOOOOOM! Thunder shook the room. A flash of lightning followed and it started to rain. I took the plate of crackers and put it under the table so it would get wet.

"You're…glowing!" Kaito exclaimed.

Oh, crap. He's right.

My body shone a brilliant shade of teal then I transformed in to a mermaid. I sat there on the ground and then my tail froze to the ground as the temperature dropped. It started to snow.

"Oh, that's just great!" I yelled.

Kaito came over and tried to get my tail unstuck. It was no use.

I opened my locket and tried to call Luchia. It started to ring.

"Hello?" Luchia asked.

"I'm in a little trouble… Gaito captured me and locked us in a weird room that has weather and stuff like that." I said.

"Us?" she asked.

"He got Kaito too…" I answered.

"Oh, that is it… We're coming, Kami!" She said and then hung up.
