Me: Yee Ha! Chapter 5 is here!
*Silence*
Me: Looks like no one is here. Anyway, thanks again for the reviews and those who are following this stort. I feel proud of writing this story.
Oh and by the way, I never thought that writing the chapter's name has its own word limit. So I was forced to write a different chapter name that might fit. The real chapter's name is The Former and The Current Aqua Princess Meet in Chapter 4.
Responding to Fear Game's Review: Hope to see that happen. Thanks man ;)
Once again, I do not own Mermaid Melody. It belongs to its respective owners. Just the OCs I own.
And now let Chapter 5 begin and we begin with Hanon being shocked.
Chapter 5: The Unknown Law is revealed.
"WHAT?!" Hanon gasped.
Hanon could not believe it! The former Aqua Mermaid Princess, whom she just encountered, is now the mother of Nagisa Shirai, the boy Hanon has fallen in love with.
"Wait then. So what's your full name?" Hanon said, still in shock.
"My full name is Yukito Shirai. Our family ends in the last name, Shirai." Yukito said.
Hanon almost felt like she is going to faint.
"Wait a second. You know my son?" Yukito is surprised.
"Yes! Yes! I know him very well. We are now a couple." Hanon said.
"Whoa! So you are my son's girlfriend?"
"Yes I am."
Yukito is completely taken by surprise. The prediction by Yuzuka, who thought that he might be in relationship with Hanon, turned out to be completely true.
"Does your husband know about this?" Hanon asked.
"Yeah. My husband is a good man. He found out by himself when we fell down from the boat. He swore never to tell anyone about my secret. Then I gave birth to my son, who by the Grace of God have you come to fallen in love with. He also knows my secret and also promised not to tell anyone." Yukito explained.
Hanon is completely lost in words. Off all the picking and rejecting she had done to him, why she did not know that Nagisa is the son of the former mermaid princess? If she had knew it, she could have accepted Nagisa straight away instead of playing hard on him.
"Well, I'm quiet happy that my son is having a good time with you. Can you tell how are you getting along with him?"
"Sure.."
And so Hanon told Yukito how she first met Nagisa at school. She then told Yukito that at first she rejected him because he is younger than Hanon and she called him a kid. However, as time flies by, she began to fall in love with him. She also told Yukito about how he saved her from getting captured by Lady Bat.
Yukito had a mixed feeling when she heard all this, "It seems that you guys had a rough start, given that he is younger than you..." Yukito then suddenly saw that Hanon is crying.
"Hanon, why are you crying?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sooo sorry." Hanon said, still crying, "I played hard on your son without even knowing that you are his mother whom I suceeded as the mermaid princess of South Atlantic Ocean."
Yukito embraced Hanon and said, "It's okay, Hanon. You don't need to cry. Relations can start a bit rocky sometimes although my relation with my husband always blossoms."
"So you are not mad at me?"
"Of course not."
Hanon was quite happy that Yukito was not mad at her.
"Can I ask you one thing?" Yukito asked.
"Sure, what is it?" Hanon said.
"This morning my son came to house with his school uniform wet. He told me that you cried a lot in front of him today. May I ask why?"
Hanon started crying again.
"Oh! I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to say it..." Yukito is about to finish when Hanon interuppted.
"I'm sorry Yukito." Hanon is weeping, "I can't continue my relationship with him."
Yukito is a bit shock when she heard this, "Why not?"
"Because within a few weeks I,along with my friends, are going back to our kingdoms forever."
"You could have said that to him."
"Don't be stupid, Yukito. If I tell him about that, I would be turned into bubbles and you know that."
Yukito looked sadly at Hanon.
"Poor Hanon. She is going to leave him forever. Wait a second!" Yukito suddenly had an idea.
"Hanon, if any mermaid reveals their form to their loved ones, they will turn into sea form. Correct?" Yukito asked.
"Yeah but why ask?" Hanon said curiously.
"I don't think that's entirely true. You will be able to reveal to him."
"What do you mean?"
"I will be back in just a few minutes."
So Yukito swam back to her kingdom while Hanon is waiting for her.
7 minutes later:
Yukito came back with a book called 'A list of Mermaid Laws'. She then showed the book to Hanon.
"Did anyone show you this?" Yukito asked Hanon.
"I don't think I have seen this book before. When we were kids, we were told by word of mouth." Hanon said.
"Then that's why you are living in constant fear that you will leave your loved ones because word of mouth never helps."
"What do you mean?"
Yukito quickly turned the page. She knows where the unknown law's page number is. After finding it, she then told Hanon.
"If you think that you will turn into bubbles just because you reveal your true form to my son, read this page and think again." Yukito said.
Hanon took the book and began to read the page that Yukito showed her.
And that will change Hanon's life forever and erase all her fears of leaving Nagisa.
"Mermaid Law No 34:
Mermaids are free to express their true form to their loved ones if only his mom is a mermaid . In addition, he can become a prince if his mother is a former mermaid princess."
When Hanon read this, she gasped.
"OMG! This can't be! I can't believe this!"
Yukito smiled when she saw Hanon's reaction.
"Wait I want to make sure first. You were the Aqua Mermaid Princess at first, right?" Hanon said.
"Yes, I was." Yukito said.
"And you are now Nagisa's mother, right?"
"Yep."
"Which means..."
Hanon's mood has turned into a happy one.
"I CAN REVEAL MY TRUE FORM TO HIM?!" Hanon said happily.
Yukito nodded.
"AND HE CAN BECOME MY PRINCE?!"
Yukito nodded, smiling.
Hanon exploded. She swam happily, danced around and flipped her fins and swam around again.
"This is AWESOME! Nagisa can become my prince and I can reveal my true form to him without the fear of getting turned into bubbles." Hanon said happily.
"Hold your horses, Hanon." Yukito said, "Do you want to see who is the author of this book?"
Hanon looked at the cover and was shocked when she saw the name.
"Aqua Regina wrote this?!"
At an instant. the aqua pearl of Hanon and the shining aqua shell locket of Yukito radiated out in the sea. In it, they saw a beautiful maiden with flowing, blond hair in a white dress, wielding a cadeacus. Guess who it is? None other than Aqua Regina, the Sea Godness.
"Yes. It is I who wrote this book." Aqua Regina said smiling.
"Aqua Regina! Long time so see." Yukito said happily.
"It's been a long time Yukito, the former aqua mermaid princess of the South Atlantic Ocean."
"Wait Aqua Regina-sama. You know her?" Hanon said curiously.
"Yes, Hanon. She, as you know, was the one whom you suceeded as the mermaid princess." Aqua Regina said.
"Wow."
"Yukito, how's your human life going? I see that you are having a wonderful time with your husband and son."
"Yep. Very fine." Yukito smiled.
Now comes a bit of serious point.
"Aqua Regina-sama." Hanon said sadly, "Why no one showed us this book? Why my or other kingdoms have to say by word of mouth to us? You could have also told us about this. We were living in constant fear of getting turned into bubbles if we show our true form."
"I'm sorry, Hanon." Aqua Regina said sadly. "I thought that someone might have shown you or the others this book. Guess that didn't work at all, which made me sad. I also couldn't tell you about this law because I never knew that humans can have a family whose mother is a ordinary mermaid or a former mermaid princess."
"But then why did you write that law?"
"It's because I always believe that something like that would happen. Now it did happen. That the former mermaid princess, whose son that you have come to love, was able to meet the current mermaid princess which is you."
"My son had a wish that he can see you in real." Yukito said.
"Oh that's nice." Aqua Regina smiled.
"Wait! Nagisa knew this too?" Hanon was surprised.
"It's just that I told him and my husband about there is a Sea Godness who protects the sea from danger. They were impressed and wish that they could meet her." Yukito said. Then suddenly she had an idea.
"Hey I have an idea." Yukito said.
Hanon and Aqua Regina are curious to know what the idea is.
"Tomorrow we can give a secret surprise to my son by revealing your true form and Aqua Regina can make him the prince, as the law says." Yukito said.
"That's a great idea." Hanon said.
"I think I like it." Aqua Regina said, "Now I must leave, princess. Enjoy your life with your love one, Hanon."
And with a smile on her face, she dissapeared slowly.
Hanon then launched a hug on Yukito and tears came to her eyes but these are not sad tears anymore, these are happy tears.
"Thank you so much, Yukito! You just saved my heart from breaking my heart into pieces. If it wasn't for you and this book, my heart will be sad forever."
"I think fate has allowed to meet by chance, right?" Yukito said.
"It sure is. Wait! Let's go meet my friends and tell them about this." Hanon said.
And with that Hanon grabbed Yukito's hand and they swam back to the land.
"Do you have any family photos with you?" Hanon asked.
"Sure. Here it is." Yukito said
She then showed the same picture that she showed it with her four friends.
"Wow! That's nice. What's your husband's name?" Hanon asked.
"Taoki Shirai." Yukito said.
Nagisa *yawns*: Nice. Let's celebrate.
Me: First your mom, then your dad then out comes you! How did you get in?
Nagisa: Simple. Dad dropped me there and told me to keep a good eye on you.
Me: Oh well. Chapter 6 is coming soon. Stay cool, people. Untill then review, fav and follow my story.
Nagisa: Live long and prosper.
Me: :|
