He said, "No, it couldn't be."
Then it spoke. It said, "Eat this before you jump in, it will make you breathe."
He ate it and it was seaweed. It tasted just as good as candy. He dove. His name was Carter and he was seven years old. He was swimming since he was two and he wanted to be a really good swimmer. Now his sister, on the other hand, was the exact same mirror image of him. Her name was Ella, and she had the same dream and was everything like him.
Although the mermaid looked just like her, she said "I am your sister."
He gaped at her. He said, "Ella, how are you a mermaid?"
She replied, "Cuz you are, silly."
He went in and saw that it was true. They both dove in at the same time and saw all sorts of sea life. They saw a talking jelly fish battling another jelly fish with their stingers.
His sister said, "Do you want to go for a ride on that turtle taxi?" There was a huge turtle where she was pointing.
He said, "Five clams for a taxi ride and a tour of the ocean is twenty."
Carter said, "What's that palace?"
Ella replied, "It's the palace of glazes. They keep all the secrets of the ocean and all the treasures of the ocean inside. It's a total miracle, don't you think? One time on the news they even said they have the ocean's pearl."
"What's the oceans pearl?" Carter said.
"It's the biggest pearl in the ocean and rainbow colored too," Ella replied.
Then Carter asked the question: "How are we mermaids and how is their magic under the ocean when a lot of people have been under?"
Ella said, "Well here's the thing, there is this big uncover...well, I should start from the beginning. A very long time ago, a scuba diver found out, told everyone, and everyone died keeping the secret to themselves. And we built a safety lift and we had drills for any humans to come and no animals to talk. And it's been that way ever since. The reason why everything happens, all the magic I mean, is because if everyone here wanted this magic thing to happen."
Carter said, "Wow. That's so cool. I think I am going to live here forever."
Ella screamed and darted around. Carter turned around. It was a big and scary sea monster. At first he thought it was the Loch Ness Monster, then he realized it was a half mermaid, half centaur, half Loch Ness Monster. It screamed, it roared, it shrieked. They darted up to the surface when they saw two humans watching their tales and one tried to scoop them up.
They took a photo on their cameras and they took them away. Then the sea monster, on the other hand, was roaring and Ella told Carter, "I am a protector of the ocean. And that monster was the spirit of the humans and sea life that did not want all this to happen, mushed together into one big monster when their spirits couldn't rest.
And we protect the ocean from that thing and humans. So if we are not here everyone could be in big danger. The humans overheard what the mermaids were saying.
They said, "Ok, you can protect your town as long as we can get one quick picture with you."
The brother and sister nodded and they turned around and threw them into the ocean. Then Ella gave Carter a ring and told him it was the ring to shield the monster away for good for these two years and then in two more years it would come back and they'd have to fight again. Ella told Carter that you could lift water into the air and make it into any shape you wanted. You could also freeze water into ice. She also told him you could boil water. Then they headed home. She also told him that if you touched water you would turn into a mermaid. And the queen made all the decisions and they were the princess and prince of the ocean. They could turn into a centaur and fairy too.
The End.
