Across the Seas With you

" TSUBASA! GET ME A DAMN BOTTLE OF WHISKEY! " yelled the captain at the top of his lungs from his room, annoyed and tired. He was the captain of the ship, and everyone was to listen to him. He had been ordering the whole crew so much the past few days, he was drained of energy. They were trying to capture a mermaid. Yes, a mermaid.

Chapter two: Caught

The four girls swam to the surface with ease in their mer-forms. Mikan twirled and swirled around in circles as she was following ger siblings.

" Wow! I look so cute in my mer-form! I can swim faster now! " Mikan shouted, as she spun nearer to the ocean surface.

" It's great right?! " asked Misaki.

" It's really great! " Mikan answered.

" You have to be careful when near the surface though Mikan. If any human sees you, he'll do anything to catch you. Do you know why Mikan? " Luna stared at Mikan, waiting for her answer.

" It's 'cause they want the wishes we can grant. " Misaki answered while twirling a lock of her hair.

" Why did you answer it fool? I didn't ask YOU. " Luna grumbled. Misaki scoffed and continued talking to Mikan.

" Mikan, have you heard of the legend of the mer folk? It's about a mermaid granting five wishes to anyone who catches her. Whatever you wanted, the mermaid could grant it in an instant. But do you know what's NOT true about it? Only the person who the mermaid falls in love with can be granted five wishes. The mermaid's love is marked with a blue heart on his wrist. This gives them the power to ask the mermaid for something, which will be granted. After the five wishes are granted, the man the mermaid falls in love with MUST marry her. If not, bad luck will be sent upon that man. And, only mermaids can grant wishes. " Misaki explained.

" So that's why we have to be careful? Pfft! I just thought of something hilarious! What if the mermaid falls in love with a woman instead of a man? " This was something that she thought was funny.

" Why? Are you in love with a woman? It's alright if you are. I don't see anything wrong with that. But something like that has not happened for a long, long, long time. " Luna said fowardly.

" NO! I'm STRAIGHT! I was JUST curious! " Mikan hurridly spat out.

All the girls giggled and swam ahead of Mikan. Mikan had to swim faster to catch up to the girls. They only had a few more feet of water to swim before they reached the ocean surface. About three feet below the water, Misaki saw something strange... suddenly, it fell quick on top of her and her sisters. It was a NET.

" Everyone! Move away from the net! " Misaki shouted loudly while swimming away from the net. She turned around and saw that all of her sisters had managed to escape. She was wrong though. Not ALL her sisters had escaped. She noticed when she saw soemthing squirming violently in the net.

" MIKAN! " all the girls screamed with horror.

" GUYS! HELP ME! " Mikan screamed in response. She was scared. Mikan starting squirming even more violently.

" Mikan! Stop squirming! Keep calm! " Misaki yelled, worried. She had noticed something about the net. It was rising up FASTER! Mikan wasn't listening and was still squirming. " Mikan! LISTEN to me! The more you squirm, the faster the net goes up! Stop moving! "

" I'm scared Misaki. " Mikan was crying now, but had stopped squirming. " Help me get out of this thing! "

All the girls swam up to the net. Misaki forged a knife from water using her skills learned in water-forging class. All the girls did the same, except for Aoi. Both Misaki and Luna stared at Aoi.

" I'M SORRY! I didn't get to this lesson in water-forging! " Aoi started sniffling and rubbing her eyes. Why was she always so useless? She wished she was like Misaki, a leader. She started crying even harder. Misaki and Luna hugged her.

" It's alright Aoi. No need to be upset. " Misaki and Luna comforted her. They then left her there and went to the net. They starting sawing at the net in top speed. Apparently, they were not fast enough. The ropes were also super thick. Both the girls fainted of tiredness, and in that second, the net rose out of the water.

" Alright! Natsume! We CAUGHT something! " Tsubasa yelled excitedly. The net dropped on the deck and they saw a girl, no, a MERMAID entangled in the ropes. All the guys stared and stared. The mermaid's face was tear-stained, and she was turning into a girl. The girl's seashell bra and tail disappeared, leaving her in her pajamas. None of the guys knew mermaids could do that!

" What is it? I swear if you woke me up for some goddamn stupid- " Natsume stopped talking and also stared. " A girl? You caught a stupid GIRL?! "

" Natsume, if you were smart, you'd know it was a mermaid. " Yoichi said.

" You better shut up before I rearrange that pretty face of yours Yoichi. And, if she WAS a mermaid, she would OBVIOUSLY have a tail. " He was already annoyed at the guys for catching some dumb girl. Now Yoichi was INSULTING him?! Oh, how he'd love to pound that guy's face in right now. But he restricted himself. He wasn't sure he was gonna win if they got into a fight. He WAS tired and drained of energy after all.

" Oh yeah? I'd LOVE to see you try. " Yoichi challenged tauntingly. Yoichi had pulled the last straw. Natsume pointed his fingers at Yoichi and then to the rooms.

" Lock the door too. " Natsume said calmly. Kokoro and Ruka looked appolegetically at Yoichi and grabbed him. Just as the two boys were pulling Yoichi towards his room, everyone heard a girl's voice.

" Put me back in the water! " Her voice was hoarse.

Everyone looked at the girl. She was consious now, dry too. She was soaking wet a moment ago.

" Why do you want to go back in the water? " asked Natsume.

" None of your business. " She couldn't let him know she was a mermaid. If he did, she would have a WAY lesser chance of going back to the waters.

" My crew here says you're a mermaid. Is that right? " The boy with raven hair asked. It felt like his stare was piercing right through her. She shuddered.

" I won't answer anything. Put me back in the water." Mikan could have jumped off the ship, into the water, if it haven't been for the ropes. They were thick.

Everyone stared at the girl. She was starting to feel nervous. Was there something ugly on her face? Then, another boy spoke up.

" Hi. I'm Yoichi. " He walked closer to the girl then put out his hand. He was a blond, and he was adorable. Her heart was pratically pounding in her chest. She hoped the boy couldn't hear it. She decided to introduce herself too.

" Hi! I'm Mikan! " She shook his hand and smiled widely. Yoichi's heart started beating faster. She was so beautiful.

Yoichi then did something daring. He got out his knife and cut open the net in one long swipe. Mikan could tell that blade was very, very, very sharp. He kissed Mikan full on the lips. Mikan gasped. Then, Yoichi pushed her away and mouthed go. She knew right away what she meant.

" Thank you Yoichi! I hope we will meet each other again. You are a kind one. " Mikan smiled and then jumped out into the ocean.

" Yoichi! You IDIOT! BRING HIM TO HIS ROOM NOW! " Natsume was enraged. Yoichi LET her escape. Ruka and Kokoro started to drag Yoichi to his room. " I deal with you later Yoichi. I'll make you learn to never go against me again. "
