It was the middle of July and Caly and I had become pretty close in such a short span of time. She still kept close to Seth, which was really cute, but we talked more as the days went by. I think she is starting to relax and feel more accepted. However her Caribbean accent still caught me off guard from time to time.

"Morning Caly, sleep well?"

"Hey Nessie, and yes I did. Is it going to storm today?"

"Looks like it, Alice will know."

"Okay, so what are we going do today?"

"I don't know, movies maybe…I don't care. Did you have something in mind?"

"I was hoping I could talk to you?"

This caught me off guard, she had never really talked to anyone but Seth and me occasionally. I nodded and sat down beside her on the kitchen table.

"Sure what's up?"

"I trust you Nessie, and I want to be your friend. I've never had a friend before, but I want to be your friend. I'm going to tell you about myself, who I am and what I can do. My father is Davy Jones, he carries the magical world to the underworld when they die.

For example when you die my father will take your soul to the underworld. Well he's suppose to, my father isn't the nicest person, he only makes one trip a year. When you die your body is "taken" to my fathers ship, The Flying Dutchmen, when you get there my father will officially kill you unless you want to work for him. Death is better.

About twenty years ago my father met the princess of Atlantis, she was a mermaid. Her name was Aurora, they fell in love and she became pregnant with me.

My mother died in childbirth, your grandfather helped her but because she was a mermaid he wasn't able to save her. My father was devastated, he swore that he would spare another soul but would make them suffer like he did.

However he doesn't hold Carlisle responsible for her death, in fact Carlisle is his only friend. He trusts him with his life. He's my godfather. My father loves me very much, he has tried to give me everything he could and I love him very much.

He's always been there for me. He taught me everything he knows, swordsmanship, shoot a gun accurately, shoot an arrow, lead a naval army into battle, and sail a ship with fifty sea dead men. The souls my father keeps until he visit's the underworld float underneath the ship, it's pretty eerie. Because my mother was a mermaid I am too, but I'm only half. I can go on land and have lungs, I can't touch water without changing.

Mermaids have witch like powers, which is why I'm going to school with you, I don't need a wand though, I use my hands. I can control water, like boil it, or freeze it, talk to fish, and other stuff like that. My full name is Calypso, like the sea nymph from ancient Greece.

As bad as my father is, I'm not a bad person, I have a soul, that's why I come here when my father goes to the underworld, I would die. I really hope we can be friends but I understand if you don't want too." I sat there in shock. I was letting everything process and when it finally did I hugger her tightly.

"Of course I want to be friends, everyone has a wacko in their family. Mine is my father." She laughed, I heard my Dad huff in frustration.

"We learned about Davy Jones in Defense Against the Dark Arts but I didn't know he had a daughter, that's pretty cool. So since we're sharing stuff I'll let you know that I have a special talent of my own. I can push my thoughts, emotions or whatever is in my brain into your head just by touching you."

"LET ME SEE!"

I touched her hand and pushed my thoughts of how cool, brave, and strong I thought she was, I told her that she is more than welcome here and if she needs anyone to talk to that I will always be there for her.

"Thank you Nessie, that means a lot to me."

"Anytime, you want something to eat? I think there is shrimp in the fridge."

"Okay, I love shrimp. So you and Jake are good?"

"Yeah we are, any boys you like?"

"Maybe…."

"WHO!!!!!! TELL ME!!!!" She laughed.

"Seth…" I grinned, I knew he imprinted on her that's why she was starting to like him.

"He likes you too, but don't tell him I told you that."

"You think so? He knows what I told you, I feel so relaxed around him, I feel like I can tell him anything, Plus he's really cute too, when we went to Victoria's Secret he wouldn't stop staring at me and when I asked him he said I was beautiful.

He asked me if he could see me in my mermaid form. I told him the next time we go to the beach I would show him…"

"Yeah he likes you, it's pretty obvious."

"Will you ask him if he does, so I don't do something stupid."

"Sure, your tattoos are really cool by the way."

"Thank you, but they're not tattoos, its my skin. I was born this way, it's a mermaid thing. So are my eyes, whatever color our eyes are it is the same as our tail."

"I wondered why your eyes were purple, I had never seen that before. I have tattoos too but I got them at a parlor thing,"

"Yeah I saw them at Victoria's Secret. They're cute. I saw that Jake has your name and his on his heart, that's really sweet."

"Yeah, he got them when I was a forth year. I did a lot of the guys tattoos, I'm not that good but they came out pretty decent. I like to draw and doodle but I'm only good unless I try and I'm pretty damn lazy."

She laughed we talked for a long time, Lily and Leah eventually came down and joined in but Caly and I were much closer now. We were both half-breeds who were new to this world. We understand each other.


"Are we driving to the beach?" I asked Jake, it was early and everyone was showering and preparing for the day.

We planned on going to the beach today because it was going to be nice out, it was surprisingly warm for Forks, around ninety. "I think so, the others can't run like we can and we will be able to take food with us." I nodded and began getting looking in the pantry trying to decide on what to bring.

"Jake where did you put the fire whiskey?"

"You are not having a drink at eight o'clock in the morning. Good god Ness you're getting to be as bad as Padfoot. And that is saying something, I swear that boy is going to be a drunk 24/7." I laughed as I found the bottle and put it on the counter. The guys all had nicknames for each other, Sirius was Padfoot, Jake was Alpha, James was Prongs and Remus was Moony.

"You are such a dork." Jake said as I tried to act annoyed by putting my hand on my hip and snapping my fingers in a Z motion, I really need a life… I smiled finishing our lunch and set it in the big blue cooler.

We left for the beach in Jasper's truck. Jake put our stuff in the back and put the surfboards on the roof. I sat next to Jake, Sirius was on my lap.

That boy is going to get raped up the ass one day and I'm going to laugh in his face when it happens (I want you guys to know that butt rape is horrible and I'm not making fun of it at all, trust me I would be the last person to make fun of rape).

My father might send me to a mental hospital but it will be worth it. We finally got there and the guys ran to the beach like the toddlers they are, dorks.

Embry, Quil, and Jared were coming later to hang out with us. The girls and I found a good spot and laid out the large fluffy beach towels along with the cooler full of snacks. I pulled my plaid shorts and t-shirt off revealing my red and navy bikini.

There was a white anchor on my breast and little red lobsters on the right. Jake was in his red and orange swimming trunks, Sirius in blue checkered, Remus was in dark navy trunks with white accents and stitching, Seth had yellow shorts and James had white trunks on with black skulls. Lily and Leah laid down on the towels and turned the music on.

I pulled Caly's hand urging her towards the water. She sighed and followed knowing what I wanted. As we walked in the water it split going away from us like Moses did with the Red Sea. I looked at her confused, "I don't feel like being a whale."

She said as we moved farther out, she let go of my hand I dove into the water giving her space to change. I rose up about seven feet away. She smiled before letting the water engulf her, a bright bluish white light glowed then slowly faded. She came up leaning her head back so her long dark hair was out of her face. She was sparkling, her eyes were brighter and her hair looked black. She whistled a slow soft soprano sound that vibrated through the water.

The leaned back and let her tail come up. The fan was large and the circular swirls were painted on with black ink across the rich purple that matched her eyes perfectly. She sparkled in a glittery way. "I know, I look different." I grinned and swam over to her pulling her in a hug. I felt her soft scales on my leg as she hugged back. "If I wasn't with Jake and I was dude, I would so date you."

She laughed, there was splashing in the background. I looked over her and saw about five dolphins swimming towards us. "That's why you whistled." She nodded. The swam around us and I touched ones silky wet head. "I'm going to name you…Nemo Junior."

Jake and the rest of the guys were now with us. "Oh no! Swim away Nemo Junior, she'll kill you like Icabob Crane and Nemo!" Seth said in mock horror, I told him shut up. Caly started talking to them in a strange language that I didn't understand but the dolphins did.

They nodded and swam out away from us, I guess Caly wasn't taking any chances… We waited, suddenly there were more splashes and the dolphins started jumping out of the water, doing flips and twirls in sync with one another. I beamed at Caly, she was amazing.

We swam almost the entire time with the dolphins. Seth stayed close to Caly and I thought I saw her blushing a few times. I heard my phone go off telling me I had a call. I ran to the beach at vampire speed, it was my dad.

"Hi Dad, what's up?"

"Nessie, you need to come home now, something has come up and we to talk."

"Okay, we'll be there in about ten minuets, no ones hurt right?"

"No, no just hurry Ness please."

"Okay we're coming." I hung up the phone and explained everything, we threw the stuff in the car and headed back home, Poor Caly didn't even have time to change back to human so she was in Seth's lap trying to dry. I had a strange feeling this had something to do with the wizarding government…
