Princess of the mysterious temple came out with a flock of girls. I shied away into the Ocean. I saw that one of them felt sorry for the prince and so hurriedly called to her sisters and a whole group of people.
Some of them recognized the prince and turned him to face the Sun, letting it dry his skin so he wouldn't catch a cold. I was happy and anxious. He needed to be revived.
The prince felt warm. He can hear someone's voice and opened one lid slowly. Then, the Navy eyes opened.
He grabbed her hand. Princess rushed back to the temple. It would have to wait. Prince sat up, confused. Why did she leave me...? He was carried away by the group into the castle where he rested on a nice couch and was given new clothes and a whine.
"Apollo, I know she's out there! I just need to find her...!"
"And what, make her your bride, Prince Erik...?"
"I know this is dumb of me, but I had this dream before. Of being found after a storm. A large vessel sunk all the men and I was the one left. Until 'my lady' came and guided me into the temple."
The Mermaid went back to her home. She had her head down. "What's wrong dear sister," asked the girls gathering around her. She looked so sad. So muted. Suddenly, she ran to her garden where she cried.
Two Sea Snakes were watching her and they rushed back to tell the Witch, Serpenrina.
"You two will be her guide when she comes to me willingly, wanting to trade her tail for those dumb human legs!"
"Why is beyond me! She is already beautiful as a Mermaid!"
When they found the Mermaid, they brought her to the Witch, but she was too busy staring at the dead bones. Soon, they stopped at a forest. It had arms on branches and there was nothing but an empty bottom.
Her stomach was very nervous.
"Come on in," said a voice.
