Mermaid Crimson with a Bad Stick
The Strauss siblings are standing together at the edge of a large lake with one next door that seems half empty, their goal is to somehow drain the entire lake to find the clock piece at the bottom of the lake.
"Okay, so is it really possible drain an entire lake?" Elfman asked looking down at the water. Wearing a pair of black swimming shorts.
"Unless one of us can use Water Magic though I think that would still be impossible." Mira tried to think of something. Wearing a two-piece white thin bikini.
"Maybe there's something at the bottom of the lake that can help us. Something that was made here to hide the clock piece." Lisanna guessed. Wearing a two-piece pale purple bikini.
"If you think so, then you can go ahead and give it a try." Elfman said, not thinking of any ideas of his own.
"Just be sure not to hurt any fishes down there nor do you let any bad fishes try eating you." Mira advised to her younger sister.
"Don't worry, it's not like there is something unexpected in that lake." Lisanna brushed off that warning.
But then right after Lisanna said that, something fishy in a really strange way jump high right out from the water getting the attention of the Strauss siblings as they turn around and their eyes widen of pure shock.
"Huh, guys… What's that?" Mira asked pointing at the creature that came out of the water.
"Not sure if I can believe it myself, but that looks like a…" Elfman paused, too shock to say it.
"A mermaid!" Lisanna finished that sentence.
"Huh, are those… humans?" The mermaid asked as she notice the three close to the lake before diving in the water.
The mermaid swims up to them as fast as she could to see those humans and then resurface again that spook three of them a bit.
"Oh my, humans! I never thought I would get to meet humans so close in all of my life!" The mermaid surprise and a little timid.
"And we never seen a mermaid like you. I'm officially freaking out right now!" Elfman shouted a bit, but the shout still scared the mermaid.
"Elfman! Don't scare her like that!" Lisanna scolded.
"Hello there, do you live in this lake?" Mira asked, kneeling down close to her. She remembers that mermaids live in the ocean.
"Oh no, I don't live here. I used to live in the ocean with my father who is also the king, but suddenly there was this strange white light coming at me and the next thing I know, I'm here." The mermaid explained her situation.
"Huh, that sounds like the same thing that happened to Lucy's older sisters." Lisanna recalled that happening right when they came home after seven years.
"Did you also experience a strange headache?" Mira asked tapping on her own head.
"Well, I did feel a headache before the light." The mermaid answered.
"(Just like what happened with Leina, Elina, and Claudette. Could there be a connection with dark magic sending people to other worlds?)" Mira thought wondered.
"Well, I can assure you that we are friendly people. My name is Mirajane Strauss, but you can call me Mira. These two are my younger siblings, the girl is Lisanna and the young man is Elfman." Mira introduced herself and her siblings.
"I'm the real man of this family!" Elfman flexed his muscles.
"Or at least that's what you always told yourself." Lisanna giggled.
"It's very nice to meet you all! My name is Tina, the Mermaid Princess." Tiina introduced herself, realizing that she should've done that first.
Tiina is a mermaid who wears a golden crown on her head, with her hair free behind her save for the twin-tails on each side of her head. She wears an elegant, white striped blouse, and light blue gauntlets on her hands. As a mermaid, the lower half of her body becomes that of a fish's caudal fin, in her case with the fin matching the color of her hair. Breasts sizes: HH-cup.
"So, may I ask what brings you to this lake?" Tiina asked curious.
"We came here searching for an important item that is said to be at the bottom of this very lake, and I was going to think about seeing if there's a way to drain the lake." Lisanna answered.
"But I think we're gonna have to change that plan consider you're here." Lisanna said, not wanting to force the mermaid to leave the water.
"Drain the entire lake? Is such a thing even possible?" Tiina asked surprise.
"We're not really sure, but like I said. We're going to rethink that since you need water because you're a mermaid." Lisanna waved her hands a bit.
"Oh, I don't think you have to worry about that. I can actually do well on land." Tiina assured.
She shows them what she means by pushing herself upward in the air and she swims in the air almost like there is water literally everywhere for her, except there isn't and all three Strauss siblings are shocked like crazy with their mouths drop to the ground.
"YOU CAN SWIM IN THE AIR?!" The Strauss siblings screamed in shock like their eyes could pop out of their sockets at any moment.
"Yes, the mermaids from my home can also do this. I also have the ability to change my tail into that of human legs." Tiina explained.
"Okay, now she has just become my favorite mermaid of all time!" Lisanna declared, going serious fangirl over this.
"So, shall we go find down to help your quest?" Tiina asked gesturing toward the lake.
"Well, if you're really okay with that then thank you." Lisanna nodded and used her Take Over Magic to turn into a mermaid herself.
"Oh my, are you some kind of hybrid mermaid?" Tiina asked surprise.
"No, it just my magic that allows me change into animals I came into contact with." Lisanna explained before diving in and Tiina soon follow.
"Man, when we agreed on helping Lucy go find one of those clock pieces, I did not expect to find an actual mermaid." Elfman said.
"Same here, but it's to meet a friendly mermaid." Mira smiled.
Lisanna and Tina are swimming together going deeper to the bottom of the lake until they came across something odd, a giant drain plug right in the middle of the bottom of the lake.
"Oh odd, I haven't been swimming here for that long and I have never seen this before." Tiina surprised to see a giant plug.
"Life is always full of surprises, as they say." Lisanna commented.
"Look! There's something else here too!" Tiina pointed at the strange object.
Lisanna turn to where Tiina was pointing at and surprise to see there is the clock piece that is the bell of the clock, looks like the information that Lucy gathered was true that the clock piece is here.
"Come on, we better get this plug off." Lisanna said.
Both girls pull the chain together which got the plug off the hole allowing the water to be drain right into the hole and filling up the other lake making the water there raise higher.
"Hey look, the lake is shrinking!" Elfman shocked.
"Looks like Lisanna and Tiina must've found something to drain the lake." Mira said.
Both older siblings went down to the lake bottom seeing both girls holding the chain and Tiina pointing at the clock bell that is latched onto a big square stone.
"Good work, you two found the clock piece!" Mira smiled.
"I'm jus glad that I was able to be useful for a change. I was beginning to feel like a third wheel. Silly, huh?" Lisanna smiled, unknowingly breaking the fourth wall.
"Nah, I noticed it too." Elfman said.
"So, this little thing is a piece of a clock. Is this a scavenger hunt for clock pieces?" Tiina asked curious while looking at the clock bell.
"Not exactly, we believe the clock itself is something dangerous and some people are trying to get these pieces for themselves which we believe could be something bad." Mira explained.
"Okay, let's grab the clock piece and meet up with the others." Mira said.
"Hey Tiina, why don't you come with us? We can help you get accustom in Earth Land since you're in another world." Lisanna offered.
"Hold on, I'm in another world! I didn't think such a thing would be possible, but do know someone who experience such a strange thing." Tiina mentioned.
"You sure it's a good idea to bring the mermaid, people would be very curious and weird of a flying mermaid coming back to Fairy Tail with us." Elfman pointed at the fin tail.
"Do not worry, I can give myself human legs." Tiina assured and transformed her tail into a pair of human legs just like she said she would.
"Okay, that's something…" Elfman blushed upon seeing Tiina like this and saw that her clothes are mostly see-through.
"Elfman, what are you starring at?" Mira asked in a firm tone.
"N-Nothing! Just going to get the clock piece!" Elfman hurried over to the clock bell.
Elfman starts pulling on the bell though finding it to be heavy and that it's stuck on the stone, but with one strong pull, he manages to get the clock bell off the strong.
"Manly throw!" Elfman suddenly threw the bell in a random direction for some odd reason.
"Excuse me, but didn't you sisters say that you were looking for that?" Tiina confused.
"Yeah, what you did that for?" Lisanna asked.
Elfman didn't know why he knew the clock piece either, it was almost like his body was being controlled by something or someone which felt very familiar until he spotted one woman walking up to them.
"Oh, not her!" Elfman exclaimed.
"Thanks a lot, big guy." The woman chuckled getting the other girl's attention.
"I should thank all three of you for helping me get the clock piece without, like, having to get wet." Mary grinned then looks at Tiina.
"I guess I should also thank the mermaid for having to help you three get the clock piece as well. By the way, it is like totally awesome to meet a real mermaid!" Mary amazed.
"Oh, you're quite welcome." Tiina smiled.
"I don't think you should be nice to her. Trust me." Lisanna warned the mermaid princess.
"Oh my, isn't she…" Mira hoped to be wrong about this one, but she knew better than to doubt of what she is seeing.
"Yeah, she's that annoying girl from the Legion Platoon." Elfman confirmed, remembering how this girl used her magic to controlled him and make him hurt his friends.
"Care to explain how you knew where to find us?" Mira asked, getting herself ready to fight if needed to.
"I followed you here. I figured it was easier to let you find it, and then totally steal it right out from under you. I'm, like, a genius!" Mary bragged patting her wand on her hand.
"Although technically I guess it was Samuel's idea." Mary admitted.
"Ha! Four against one? Nice strategy!" Elfman charged in with his right arm into a black beast.
"Your arm changed! How did you do that?" Tiina asked shock.
Mary simply smirks as she use the Holy Tact for her Command Magic to control Elfman and have him attack his own sisters and the mermaid girl.
"I'm sorry! I was just asking!" Tiina apologized.
"No, it was that girl controlling him!" Mira assured that it wasn't Elfman's intention.
"Crap! I forgot!" Elfman cursed himself for getting that this girl can control people with her stick.
"You can try to fight it, but that's not gonna help ya. There's, like, nothing you can do! As long as I have this baton, you losers are totally my puppets!" Mary smirked with her baton glowing from the tip of the index finger.
"Oh dear, does that mean she's going to make us do silly dances and slap each other on the face and butt?!" Tiina scared imaging the humiliation.
"Whoa, I wasn't even thinking of doing that, but thanks for the idea!" Mary excited as she points her Holy Tact at one of the girls.
"Oh no! What have I done?!" Tiina screamed.
"Don't worry, from what I can tell, her magic can only control one people at a time meaning most of us would be able to try fighting her close up." Mira explained, remembering how it was back then.
"Okay, you got me there, but that doesn't, like, mean I'm going to let you get the jump on me." Mary smirked as she points her baton at Mira.
"AAAAAAAHHHHH?!" A loud scream of a young woman can be heard from very close by that got everyone's attention.
"Huh, what the fuck is that scream?" Mary wondered.
"It sounds like someone had an unfortunate encounter with a shark." Tiina believed that's what a scream like that would mean.
"How would sharks even scare people if it sounds like the scream was coming from those trees?" Lisanna asked.
"Maybe it's a land shark. Tiina is a mermaid that can survived on land." Elfman pointed out.
"Stranger things have happened around us." Mira admitted.
"HELP MEEEEEE?!" The young woman screamed again.
Mary turns her head to where the scream was coming from only see something is rolling down the slope of the empty lake, and it bumps into a rock causing that rolling thing to fly toward the controlling woman of the Legion Platoon much to her shock.
Mary was able to get a good look at the rolling thing that it has a small cute little butt that is flying towards her, and it hit her right on the face across on the cheek knocking her down.
"Ow! I knew I should've have gotten so close to the edge." The young short woman groaned rubbing her butt.
"Are you okay?" Tiina asked.
"No, I was wandering in the woods getting myself lost and I ran out of water!" The short woman showed her canteen empty.
"I thought I saw a lake and wanted to get some water, but suddenly the lake is empty like something drain all the water from the very bottom." The short woman explained crying.
That's when Tiina and the Strauss siblings gasp in horror with the realization that they ended up making the girl go thirst because of how they drained the lake to look for the clock piece.
"That may have been my fault. But fear not, I have water to give." Tiina pulled out a large pearl from behind and held it in front of the woman and the pearl glows pink for a few seconds and water came squirting out.
"Oh! Thank you!" The short woman thanked and drank some of the water then started filling up her canteen.
"My name is Tiina, by the way." Tiina introduced herself.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Mirim, Hyper Vibration Valkyrie." Mirim introduced herself in return.
Mirim is a young woman with long viridian hair tied in a braid style and reaches all the way down to her thighs, and beautiful blue eyes. She wears very ornate and detailed red armor with gold linings and wizard stones set on various pieces. She has a red headpiece with wings on each side, and on her torso, she wears a red bikini top breastplate with choker on her neck. Under the breastplate she has a cloth, (which is held by two belts, one that goes around, and one that is attached at the end) that goes all the down to the end of her torso, with a small red metal piece near her crotch. She has red arm-guards and black thigh-high tights with leg-guards and on her legs with wings on the side of each ankle. Breasts size: E-cup.
"I'm glad you got some water." Mira smiled.
"Yes, now I can focus on my travel to find my family and" Suddenly Tiina's hands started to move on their own and grabbing Mirim by the neck, tightening the grip.
"Hey, hey, hey, that's not very manly to grab someone who you just saved!" Elfman gasped.
"It's not me, I swear! It's like my arms are being possessed!" Tiina tried to pull away but couldn't.
"You… damn… little bitch…" Mary angered, using her magic for some revenge.
