Now you will see Sam's father in this chapter. Now Jeremy's distrust towards humans I got from the Disney version, because I think it gives a reason for Sam to want to be human. Here it is. Review please!

Sam swam throughout the ocean where the other mermaids were. She went to a cave where her friend Valerie lived.

Valerie was a mermaid who was Sam's best friend other than Danny. Danny was a great friend and him and Sam grew up together, but he was a guy that didn't know anything about girls. Whenever Sam needed a girl to talk to Valerie was the very friend she had. The best part about Valerie was that she kept all her secrets. She had known about Danny for eight years.

Sam saw her friend in front of a mirror getting her hair done. Sam rolled her eyes and smiled at the same time.

"I can't believe you're still using that mirror!" Sam laughed as Valerie turned around before flipping her hair.

"Some of these human things are actually useful," Valerie smirked. She turned back toward the mirror and started messing with her hair again.

"I showed Danny the ocean. I think he's starting to concur his fear of drowning."

"Wait! Danny Fenton actually went inside the water. Oh man, I wish I could've been there. That boy would rather sleep in garbage than stick his foot in the water. He couldn't even take a bath till he was 10."

"Actually, he couldn't take a shower and the water he bathed in was only a foot deep."

"If every human is as much of a baby as Danny is, we wouldn't be afraid of humans."

"The only reason Dad won't allow me to the surface is because he thinks humans are dangerous."

"He technically is right. Why do you think you and Danny agreed to meet at that stupid cave?"

"Not all humans are dangerous, Val. Besides, it doesn't matter what my dad thinks, I want to be human. I don't like swimming around here wanting to know what it's like to be human."

"There's nothing wrong with being a mermaid. Our world makes up 80% of the world and if I was human, I wouldn't get the chance to meet the cutest merman alive."

"I don't care if I never see another handsome merman again. I wish I was human. I can find a cute human guy anyways."

"You must be desperate to want to be human."

Valerie chuckled a little as Sam sighed. The only thing keeping Sam from knowing the human world was her father. At least he didn't know Sam was going up on the surface and visiting a human. If Jeremy found out his daughter was disobeying his orders, she would be grounded for life. Sam had to keep her contact with Danny a secret at all costs.

Sam saw her father enter Valerie's cave. He looked at Valerie as she waved.

"Hello, your majesty," Valerie greeted.

"Hello, Valerie," Jeremy replied. "Sam, you're late. What is with you and swimming off? You're going to be late for dinner."

Sam nodded. Obviously, she had already eaten, but she had a way to get by without eating too much. Sam went to the fish area where mermaids would hunt for their food. She hunted a few fish and saved some of them for Danny. He'd cook the fish and not have to go fishing or whatever humans call hunting for fish. Danny didn't like it and Sam catching fish for him made it easier for her friend to eat fish without touching the water.

When Sam was done with her fishing trip, she went back to her father. He was looking up at the sky of the ocean. Sam looked at her father questionably.

"There's a storm. Humans never come during a storm. You are allowed to explore the surface now, but come back when the storm is cleared," Jeremy allowed Sam. Sam smiled and started swimming up to the dark ocean sky.

The rain blazed onto Sam's face. Sam liked the rain, because it was the only time her father would let her be on the surface. The only bad thing about this was no humans were around. Not even Danny was around. It wasn't like he was so afraid of the water he couldn't play in the muddy puddles in his world. He said that for any human, sailing in a storm was like committing suicide.

Valerie appeared in the storm and started flipping backwards into the sea. The two mermaids played together and enjoyed their freedom on the surface.

"Now this is fun," Valerie shouted as the girls laughed.

All of a sudden, Sam saw a boat. She looked in dismay and started swimming toward the sailing boat. Valerie followed her, knowing that this was dangerous for any human or humans. The boat started rocking left to right with a teenage boy inside it hanging on for his dear life.

"HELP ME!" The human boy shouted before falling into the deep.

Sam gasped and dived into the water. She saw the boy falling deeper into the water with bubbles slowly escaping his mouth before blood started seeping out of his nose. Sam narrowed her eyes and grabbed the boy by the shirt collar. Sam was able to lift the drowning teen up to the surface. The rain was pouring harder and harder as lightning struck loudly. Valerie followed Sam across the surface of the ocean as waves kept driving and slamming.

It was not long before Sam reached a nearby beach. The rain still poured, but Sam found a dry place where the rain did not pour under. The boy still couldn't breath. Sam tried to help the boy breath, but nothing worked. Just when she thought all hope was lost, someone got in her way.

"Let me help!" Danny shouted whose shirt was drenched. He opened the boys mouth and pressed it with his mouth.

"What are you doing?" Sam asked.

"It's called Mouth-to-Mouth Resuscitation," Danny explained as turned the boy to the side. The teenage boy vomited the salt water from his mouth while Danny hid Sam behind some tall rocks.

"Oh my... what happened?" the boy muttered. Danny helped him up. "Thanks for saving me. Who are you?"

"Danny Fenton and I just helped you breathe again. A friend of mine saved you from the water. Anyways, what the heck were you doing out there?"

"A dare. I'm so gonna be busted for this. By the way, the name's Elliot."

"I think you can run home now."

"Thanks again and tell your friend I owe em one!"

Elliot ran from the beach. Sam couldn't help, but smile at this one. He was so handsome and his green eyes were gorgeous. Elliot was the most beautiful thing Sam had ever laid her eyes on. She could not take her eyes off of the boy.

"Don't worry Sam, he'll be fine," Danny said before noticing Sam's expression. "What? Are you into human guys now?"

"Wha... Danny I didn't say."

"Sam, I know you way too much. You have a crush on a human psycho who almost got himself killed," Danny teased.

"Danny, he's not psycho," Sam said rolling her eyes. "... and I'm soooooo not crushing on him!"

"Sure you're not and you can have him when you find a way to change human. Just make sure not to ask him about corals."

Sam started throwing sand at Danny before he took his friend from under her arms and threw her in the sea.

"Get lost, psycho mermaid and take your psycho boyfriend with you!" Danny teased again.

"Shut up! I'll see ya tomorrow!"

Danny chuckled and showed a huge smile on his face. He loved to tease his best friend when she's crushing on a guy. It wasn't like Sam didn't do the same thing Danny was doing. Sam once called Paulina, Danny's crush, a jumping lobster, because she was a Cheerleader and cheerleading including jumping. Valerie also teased Danny and the type of girls he went for. It was a fun activity they did as friends.
