"Nova I'm ready to show them what we are." "Are you sure about this Zee?" "Yes I know they can keep secrets." "Well in that case no better way than our private beach." "Mom lets go. Were going to the beach." I said. "Oh yeah I mentioned my birth mom. She is pregnant with twins. Hey mom this is my brother Ace. He was my adopted parents biological son." "Oh hello nice to meet you Ace." "Likewise." "OK I think it would be safer to take the van. Lets go. There should be enough seats for everyone. It's a 7 seater. "OK then I will ride with Yukon." Said Ace. "Ok just follow us ok Yukon?" We all got in the van and headed out.
It was a long drive but everyone made it. "Ok so this is our private island. You will see soon brother and Yukon." I said. Aqua, Boys and Nova come join me. Mom could you watch the girls?" "Yeah we can watch them." "Thanks." We each got a boy and went into the water. Once we got in are feet instantly turned to fins. I flipped my tail up and my hair changed as well. So did Nova's and the kids. Nova's hair was blue with green eyes. "Wow! I thought mermaids were a Myth." Said Ace. "Hehe I did too until I was 18. I have to be in water every so often if I don't take my medicine. As for the boys they have to go into water every hour if not they get sick If they or we are 2 hours over we could die." "Oh wow. So the girls?" "Oh the girls have to reach a certain age before they grow a fin. I guess 10 is the youngest. I was later on mine for some reason. My birth father is the king of mermaids. Oh speaking of him. Mom when is dad due to be back?" "Oh he should be back next week sometime." "Oh good. Oh mom I have something to tell you. You have to have a substitute guard for awhile. I have business under the ocean. Ace Nova has somewhere you can stay in the house. I will be leaving tomorrow. Dad will also keep you company for awhile. While I am gone." "Hehe ok Zee thank you." "Ok so that's taken care of." Then we get out of the water and our fins turn to feet and our hair and eyes turn normal." "Oh yeah Teo also turns. NO one else knows Except for my doctor Mom dad and Aqua. So keep it quiet ok?" "Yes maam." Said Yukon. "Oh you. You haven't changed a bit. Hey if you guys ever want to come down for a fun time I can put an air bubble on your face and you can explore." "Yeah of course! It would be awesome! Thanks sis!" "Sure no problem." So we stayed on the beach for awhile me and the boys swam Nova did as well. All of us swam in the water for a bit. Even the little girls. I held One of the girls whey Nova held the other. The boys could swim by themselves. "Once the boys are born they have to stay in the water for at least 1 year or 2. Most crucial years. We only waited a year and they were fine. So we all played and my brother touched my fin along with Yukon. "It feels like a fish." "Well yeah a mermaid is half fish half human." "Yeah well I guess so." Said Yukon. "Yeah Yukon has been taking care of me sis. Since we were kids. He hasn't stopped." "Thank you Yukon. I appreciate it. Hey we basically grew up together just call me big bro." "Well big bro to Ace. I am older than you. I'm 23 after all." "Only by 4 years. I guess I am 1 year older than your brother is." "haha yeah well your still older which means you gotta protect your little brother right?" "That's right." The kids and everyone were having a good time then it was time to go. "Ok Everyone time to get home." We went in the same vehicles we did before.
We Finally got home and we showed Ace his room. "Here you go Ace this is where you will be sleeping." "Wow thanks sis." "Your welcome. Yukon the couch pulls out if you want to stay the night it is getting late." "Yeah I think I'll take you up on that offer. Thanks Zee." "Sure. Oh how are your parents these days?" "Oh mom's doing good dad died a 2 years go." "Oh I'm sorry. He was a good man." "Yeah he was. I've been taking care of mom these days. She has been bugging me to get a girlfriend I keep telling her I don't need one right now." "Well you will someday I hope." "Yeah I'm sure I will." "Well I'm heading to bed. Goodnight." "Night Zee." Then I went in my room to get ready for bed. Once I hit my pillow it was lights out for me.
Nova came in to see Zee was already asleep. "Haha I guess she had a long day. Goodnight honey." Then he gave her a kiss on the cheek and cuddled with her and he fell asleep too.
The next morning it was time for me to go. I had to leave early so I couldn't say goodbye to anyone. Luckily the guard was at the door when I left. "Thank you sir keep my mother safe." "Yes I will." "OK then." So I got to my ride and we headed to the beach where my father usually comes up.
We finally made it and I thanked the driver. He left and I made sure no one was around and I jumped in the water and swam down. "Ok now I have to meet up with a man named Kalani. So I swam for a few days and finally found him. "Pfew finally found you. You are Kalani right?" "I am. What brings you here?" He was looking down at the time. "I'm here for information." He finally looked up and said, "Oh sorry. You must be Zee. I apologize I thought it was another annoying person. Please come in." So I swam over to follow.
"Ok so you want to know how to turn a human into a mermaid huh?" "Well its actually more complicated than that. She has been cursed. She turns into fox wolf like creature at night. Other than that she is human." "I see. So it's a little more complicated. Well that thing. That wolf fox like creature is called a maned wolf. If she has controlled herself I can take a look at what I can do. If it was a normal person it would be no problem but if its something like this that's a different story all together. (Sigh) Ok well when is a good time to meet her?" "Well she usually gets off of work at 5:00. "Ok I will head back with you until she arrives home." "Thank you so much sir." "No problem. Call me Kal." "OK Thanks Kal." "No problem. Let me get my stuff and we will head out. Want me to call you Zee?" "Yes please." "OK then." So he got his stuff and we headed out.
We finally made it back and I was exhausted. Luckily no one was around to see. "Oh then where is the car?" "Oh here it is. Hey dad. Good to see you. I thought you would be going home soon." "Oh I told your mother I wanted to visit with you for a few days." "Oh well I'm in the middle of something right now but I will when I can ok dad?" "OK sweetie. Sorry to come at a busy time." "OH its. Fine." "Hello your majesty." "Oh don't worry about formalities on land. Hello Kalani. I'll get you two home. Your mother just got home." "Oh ok cool. Then we don't have to wait." We got in the car and headed home.
We got home and I said, "Mom lets go to the soundproof room. There is something we need to talk to you about." "Ok sure." So we went in the room and I said, "Mom we are here today because we are looking into turning you into a mermaid. I had to tell him about your night situation because its different." "Do you mind If I touch your outer body parts?" "No sure go ahead." He touched moms arms legs feet toes face." Ok well these parts are healthy enough. Are you by any chance pregnant?" "Yes I am is that a problem? Well since it will be a human baby you can't be a mermaid to have it. So you might want to wait until you have the baby to do anything. I still need to see your night form. I may have to stay the night." "Sure I have a pull out couch." "Ok thank you."
Finally it was getting close to night. Mom went out in her normal place which was the storage room. We don't have anything stored there so we let her stay in there when its time. Mom got used to turning to it didn't hurt as much. She hopes it won't hurt the baby. She was thinking about calling the doctor to see if the baby is ok. "Mom should be turned now Kalani." "Ok take me to her." I made sure there was no one around, then I went in the storage room and said hi to mom. "Hey mom. Kalani needed to check out this form remember?" She nodded since no one could understand but she could. "OK I'm going to touch your legs and face like last time ok?" She nodded. She stood perfectly still while he touched her arms legs and face. "Ok I'm done. She's healthy there too. I'll have to read up on it and send someone for a guy who might be able to help." "Ok thank you Kal." "Sure no problem. By the way you are an amazing color. Very beautiful. I hope this all works out for you." She nodded then we went back inside.
"Ok well goodnight Kal." "Night Zee." The kids were already in bed and I went in the room and saw Nova getting ready for bed. "Hey honey? Can I use your computer for a minute? There is something I am working on and I need to get more info about it." "Sure just don't stay up too late ok?" "Thanks Nova." Then I gave him a kiss on the lips and went to his office.
"OK lets see turning cured people into mermaids." After awhile I found it then I looked for the curse I was looking for. After about an hour I was getting tired but I finally found it. "Yes! Now lets see." 'The last time a cursed person or a normal person was turned was 100 years ago. A woman who was turned while she was cursed only lasted 2 days as a mermaid and died.' "What!" I yelled by accident. "Opps. I hope I didn't wake anyone up." As I continued reading I heard a knock on my door then exited it out I wanted it to be a secret from anyone besides my mom me and Kal. "Who is it?" "Its Nova. You ok in there?" "Come in. I'm fine." Nova came in and I had a tired look on my face. "Hey are you ok Zee?" "Huh? Oh yeah sorry. I didn't mean to be so loud. I'll be a few more minutes ok? Then I will come to bed." "Do you know what time it is? Its 1:00 in the morning." "Its fine. I'll be in a few minutes. I promise." "Ok then. Night Zee." "Night Nova. Sorry again." "hmm." When he left I went back to history and found my place. 'OK so the last one who was cursed only lasted 2 days and died. Lets see how did they die. Oh here it is. Oh damn. They started off with black veins it was like poison. Huh I see. Lets see what about a normal person. Ah here we are. All the normal people man or woman stayed a mermaid the rest of their lives they were also able to go on land like normal mermaids and turn human. They didn't completely loose their humanity. If a curse is broken and the person is normal again there may be a chance but it has not been tested yet. The one who turned them was killed before that could happen. He was killed by the family of the one that died from being a mermaid that was cursed.' "Wow that's a lot of info. I have to print this out." I printed the info then put it in my purse to hide it. I laminated it so it will be safe under water.
Then I finally went to bed it was 1:30 in the morning. I cuddled up with Nova and he put his arms around me too and we went to sleep till later that day.
The same morning I woke up and told Kal we should meet up somewhere. We were going to meet by the ocean so he could get back. "Mom I'm not going to be able to go to work again today. I have other business. I told him to continue watching you until I gave him word." "Ok honey that's fine. Have a safe trip wherever your going." "Yes mom." So I had a driver wait for me and we both got in and headed towards the beach.
We made it to the beach. Then we got near the water. "Ok so I looked up the history of the changing. Last time someone changed it was 100 years ago. You Can read it. I have to find a way to break moms curse before she can change and it said it wasn't able to get tested cause the man was killed by the family of the one who was cursed." "I figured as much." "Hey if you know anyone who knows about curses can you tell them about moms? Maybe they might have a clue. I'll look for someone as well and look up mom's curse as well." "OK sounds good. I'll give you a ring if I hear any info." "OK thanks."
"Hey Nova you got the girls. I'm heading to the library. I have to look some stuff up." "Ok then its fine." "Oh how are the kids doing in preschool?" "Oh they are enjoying it your father said. "Oh good I'm glad. Bye Nova. Bye girls." "Bye bye mommy." Said Kaia. So I left. The library wasn't that far from where we lived.
"OK here I am. Lets go inside." I went to the librarian who I knew well. His name is Zack. "Hello Zack. I'm just here to use a computer and I might use the printer as well." "Sure go ahead Zee. Computer 1 is open." "Ok thanks." So I walked to the computer logged in with my info and started searching the type of curse my mom had. Awhile later I found it. I clicked on it and read it in my head like I did at home. 'Ok so the curse of the maned wolves. The only one who knows how to break the curse is the one who cursed the person or a blood relative of them. Huh that's all it says? Oh wait there's more. If there are any of them left they will be in the mountains of Hiroshi. In a cave.' I printed the page out and ran to get it before anyone noticed. I exited out of the computer and ran to get my paper. I folded it up and put it in my purse. I gave Zack the money and said, "Well I'll see you later. When I have time." "Yeah bring the girls sometime. I heard the Boys are at some private preschool and that your father is watching them." "Yeah that's right. As for the girls I'll try ok?" "Ok don't get to busy. Rest is good too you know." "Hahah rest? me? That's Crazy." "Haha yeah I guess so see ya." Then I waved and left.
