[Yo!…..ummm…enjoy ^_^]

(Kimmi’s POV)

I woke the next day, my joints stiff and aching from being in the same position, attached to the wall with shackles around my wrist.  The cuffs digging into my skin, I was sure they were bleeding.  My suspicions where confirmed when I noticed the trail of blood flowing down my arm, twisting down my arm and gathering in a puddle on the stone bench I was sat upon.

I tried to reposition myself, making the cuff dig into my skin even more, I let out a scream of pain and heard a deafening crash outside the door.  I saw a pair of eyes looking through the small window framed in bars, eyebrows raising.

The pair of eyes disappeared and the sound of keys rattling was heard before the door swung open.  The merman had seen the blood gathered on my arm, a concerned look came across his face.

“Are you okay?” He asked me, earning a shake of the head ‘No’ in response.  He fondled with his keys, searching nervously for the key for my shackles, finally finding it he slid the key into the lock, setting my wrists free.

My arms flopped down, aching too much to even move them in a suitable position.

“I’m sorry the guards did this.  I’ll be right back”  He whispered and ran out of the room, returning seconds later with some food.  I probably hadn’t eaten in a few days and I was starting to see the consequences, I was too weak to even take the food from his grasp.

“It’s okay I’ll feed it to you” He stated, placing the food to my lips for me to accept it.  And I did, I wanted to be okay for the trial.

“So what’s your name?” He asked me sweetly.

“Kimmi, yours?”  I tried to be polite, seeing the smile upon his feminine yet handsome face.

“Jonne”  His fairly deep voice answered.  He took a seat next to me, where we drifted off into conversation about the way the colony is run.  How it is too strict and run by an asshole.

“Why are you down here anyway?” he asked me, eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

“Well…I was going to marry the King’s son, Ville.  But the night before our wedding I knew something was wrong with him.  After he told me what was wrong, I told him he had to go do what he wanted.  I knew marrying me and staying in this fucked up colony wasn’t what he wanted so he left and I let him.  Now the king hates me and is going to make me find Ville” I sighed, seeing no point in what the king wanted me to do.

“The King only thinks about himself, he doesn’t do what is best for the colony, only what’s best for him” Jonne sighed also.  He looked at me, giving me an apologetic look “I’m sorry, but you have to get ready for you trial” He gave me a little kiss on the cheek before standing and going out of the room once more.

He returned with a bowl of eel slime and a sea sponge, starting to remove the blood still dripping down my arm.

Eel slime is what we use for cleaning down here, it doesn’t feel particularly great on your skin but it does clean you.  I hear that humans wash with something they call soap…of course we don’t have those luxurious nice smells…hell you can’t even smell anything down here, not with all the water around.

After he had finished wiping my cuts he stood from the stone bench, offering his hand to me to help me up.  I accepted it and he pulled me up, my arms wouldn’t work properly, they were too stiff.  I swam to the door, waiting up for Jonne who was collecting everything from the dungeon.

“I hope nothing bad happens to you” Jonne whispered quietly as to not anger the other guards “It’s rare that you find a mermaid as nice as yourself” He smiled towards me, making a grin spread across my face.

“Thanks, your awesome too” I nudged his shoulder as we continued to swim to the court room.  I didn’t see why the King had to send me to the dungeons and court just because I let his son disappear, it just didn’t make sense.

We made it too the doors leading to the large court room, opening as soon as we had arrived.  Jonne quickly put his hand round my arm, making it look like he had been making sure I didn’t run off.  He was gentle though, didn’t hurt me.

He sat me down in a chair and gave me a slight smile only me and him could see, standing besides me like guards do.

The king stared at me intently,  making me unnerved from his gaze.  I coughed as I listened to some merman say what I was accused of or some shit like that.

~~X~~(Ville’s POV)

I couldn’t look at what Kat was doing to me, although the pain wasn’t as bad as when it started, I opened my mouth to speak but nothing came.  I felt each drop of liquid travel through my veins, running around my body.  It stung but it bearable, I knew this is what she had to do to make me become human.

I looked to my right to see what Kat was doing, it seemed she was drawing something on my wrist, a heart.  Just a plain and simple heart, nothing more, nothing less.  The buzz from the needle stop and I knew she was finished.

“If I was you I’d start swimming towards the shore right now” She said casually, sitting back in her chair and smiling sweetly.

I raised an eyebrow at her “Why?” I asked, not knowing the reason.

“You’ll be turning into a human within the next hour.   If you have to think about the fact, that when you finally get legs your going to have to learn how to walk and swim…you’ll probably drown if you don’t get there in time” She said rising from her chair and pulling me up by my right wrist, making me wince in pain.  She gave me an apologetic look and pushed me all the way out of the castle telling me to swim quickly.

I knew I had to,  last time I went near the shore it took me an hour and a half and now I was further away.   So I swam, as fast as my stupid fin could take me, I dodge many creatures, big and small.  I swam though my own colony, seeing everyone gathered around through my father’s castle window, I wondered what was going on.

I was too curious, I had to find out what was going on.  I swam quickly to the window looking in I saw Kimmi.  She was on trial.  My eyes widened and I raced into the castle, into the court room.

“What is going on?” I asked as I barged passed the guards at the doors.  Everyone in the vicinity turned to look my way, their own eyes widening in surprise as soon as they saw me.

“Ville” I heard Kimmi gasp, I smiled towards her and she gave me a look I was not used to.  A look that seemed to tell me to get out and away from the area….and quickly.

I blew a quick kiss towards her and swam as fast as I could once more, out of the castle.  The ink inside of me was starting to burn my skin, making me wince in pain the more I swam.  I turned to look back at the castle, seeing guards chasing after me I tried to swim faster.

I decided the best thing to do was to swim towards the surface of the water, that way if I did not make it in time at least I’ll be able to breath.

I could tell the guards where catching up to me but the pain running through my body was too intense to swim any faster than I already was.  I felt one strong hand grab my fin but I quickly wriggled free of his grasp.  I looked down at my fin, seeing it dissolve like sugar in what humans call coffee.  I had to make it my mission to try some of that when I make it to shore.

The guards stopped dead as they realised my fin was very nearly gone, I could see what humans call their feet now and I started to paddle, I was nearly at the surface of the water, I could see the sunlight now.

I gave myself one last push and there I was, out of the water.  My fin had only the last part near my waist to uncover, it was going to leave me with genitals, something I had wanted all my life.

I could see the shore from were I was, all I had to do is swim like a human to the soft sandy beach.  But I was finding swimming this way too difficult, my new legs were not working properly, they wouldn’t let me move.  I tried using my arms to move forward, but it only worked a little.

I was nearly there but my energy was wasting away, I saw a boat on the horizon, I tried waving for it to come over but I don’t think they could see me.  I tried my hardest to make that last 100 foot swim to the shore.

All I could think of at this moment was I wished my fin was back, just for that moment until I got to shore.

I could have probably swam the next 30 feet until it was safe to touch the sea bed with my new feet.

And I had made it, my feet touched the floor for the first time but my head was only just out of the water, just enough to let me breath.  All my energy was gone but I still had to walk the next part, until it was safe to rest.  Safe on new ground, safe with a new life.

I walked the rest of the way, finally making it out of the water and onto dry land.  Although I couldn’t take in my new surroundings for too long, because I collapsed and once again everything went black, energy trying to recharge with sleep.
