"why do you have to leave me with her!" said a depressed brunette young teenager about 16 that looks a lot like her mother.

"oh come on heather mom isnt that bad, yeah you two have your fights but wether you like it or not she is your mother and you guys are a lot a like than you know."said melody.

" no she only yells at me all the time, like last night she wouldn't stop yelling at me." said heather with a sacastic look on her face.

little did they know thier mother ariel was right on the other side of melody's door listening to thier conversation.

"is everthing ok in here?" asked ariel.

"yes everthing is fine." melody said with a don't try anything look on her face towards heather.

"yeah everything is fine." said heather with a im not going to try anything.

"melody, do you need any help packing?" asked ariel acting like she didnt hear their conversation.

"nope heather and i got it" replied melody

"ok, i cant believe you are moving away and getting married" said ariel in disbelieve that all these years had past.

"its not like im going away permantly, i will be just the next kingdom away" melody said with a reassuring voice.

"but its not the same as having you here and seeing everyday, and if i did want to see you, i would have to travel by boat!" heather said running out of the room to cry.

"hea...ther" melody's voice traveling but her sister didnt hear her.

"oh you cant blame her for being sad, shes had you for her whole life, and you have come close these last couple of years" said ariel.

"i know" melody said giving out a sigh knowing that her mother was right.

"hello" said a crustation voice.

"hey sebastion" ariel and melody said in unison.

"i hear there is a 20 year old princess gettin married, i tink her name is melody". said sebastion in a clueing voice.

"yes that would be me sebastion" melody replied.

"im going to make sure your sister is ok" said ariel trying to get out of sebastions long stories on life.

"heather" ariel asked in a quiet calm voice as she entered heather's room.

"yes" heather said still crying and upset.

"you know its not that bad, you can still see her. sure she is going to be far away, but you can always write to one another back and forth and tell her about your adventures here" said ariel trying to help heather understand.

"its not the same as GOING on the adventures with her" replied heather.

*knock knock*

"yes" ariel repiled.

"it is time for dinner" said Eric wondering why heather was crying.

heather left the room to get washed up for dinner followed by ariel.

"ariel" eric said with a questioning look on his face.

"yes eric" replied ariel.

"what's the matter with heather, why was she crying" asked eric in a whispering voice so heather wouldn't hear them.

"oh nothing, shes just sad about melody leaving. you know how those two are so close" replied ariel.

[jodeefan12]

ok here is chapter 2 so enjoy i cutted it up a lot more cause after i posted it, it looked too long so i cut it up a bit into smaller sections


they were all sitting down at the table eric at the end of the table ariel on his right, melody on his left and on melody's right was heather and across from her was grimsby next to ariel. everyone was quiet not knowing what to say over melody leaving but of course grimsby always had something to say.

"so what did you two do today" asked grimsby looking at melody and heather.

"not much, i was getting packed and heather was helping me. thats about it" replied melody.

"grimsby what time do we leave?" eric asked.

"we leave at 10 in the morning" answered grimsby.

"what" heather said in surprise.

"im going to take melody on my ship to her future husbands home, while you stay here with your mother" replied eric.

heather did not like that. especially the last words out of her fathers mouth about staying with her mother. her and her mother didnt get along at all. she always got on to her about the littlest harmless things she thought to herself. how could she stay with her mother for that long it would take her dad a month to go there and back. after dinner melody and heather went up to thier rooms while eric and ariel decided to go for a walk together.

"i cant believe i have to stay a whole month with mom, you have to be kidding me this has to be the worst day of my life" said heather furious following her sister into her sister's room.

"oh heather please, its not that bad and maybe spending time with mom will be good for you guys. maybe you guys will become closer" said melody.

"yeah........right" replied heather in a sarcastic voice.

"hello" said sebastion.

"hey sebastion" melody said in a tiring voice of her sisters drama with her mom.

"wat is going on here" asked sebastion.

"i have to stay a whole month with my mother" said heather in a whiny voice.

"oh tats it, you know who you and your moter remind me of......?" sebastion said.

"who?" heather asked.

melody looked down at sebastion with a dont even say my mom look or im going to have to kill you. and you will be asking for it from me and heather.

"your mother and her father" said sebastion.

"what, no way" replied heather in disbelief her mother was like her.

"no im serious" sebastion said in a serious voice."well i have to be heading back to de palace to help de king with his work" sebastion said as he was walking out.

while the girls was upstairs thier parents was walking around outside talking.

"i still cant believe we have a 20 year old and a 16 year old daughters" said ariel in disbelief.

"i know, it seems like yesturday we were changing thier clothes" said eric.

"im going to miss melody" ariel said giving out a sigh as she said melody's name.

"i am too" answered back eric.

"im also going to miss you while you are gone" said ariel.

"what miss me being refree to you and heather's fights" said eric jokingly.

"thats not funny, and i dont see you being the bad parent and make sure she minds" ariel said with a comeback.

"oh come on ariel, you are a little hard on her. i mean shes 16 years old. dont your remeber being 16? or are you too old to remember?" eric said still joking.

"thats not funny" ariel said in a angry voice. "its not like i on purposly yell at her she just loves to tempt me and see how far i will go until i get mad. you know eric when my dad told me what to do and yelled at me i would promise myself that i wouldnt do that to my child."

"yeah sometimes you have to just pick your battles" replied eric knowing the subject was bugging ariel.

"i overheard her and melody talking today, she said she hated being around me and said i yell at her all the time" said ariel not wanting this discussion to end just yet.

"well maybe you should talk with her about that" said eric not knowing what to say to ariel."and you have a month to do it without melody or me. you should spend some time with her and get to know her a little better. then maye you both will realize that you guys arent that different and mabye you can get along better" adding eric.

"yeah your right" said ariel with a sigh wondering how she was going to do that.

it was getting pretty late and melody and eric had to get up in the morning so they went inside to get ready for bed. heather was lying bed with melody since it was her last night at the palace.

"hey heather" melody said wispering in the dark.

"what heather" heather said with yawn.

"i got an idea how about we go into mom and dads room to go sleep with them, like when we were younger" melody said with a sly grin on her face towards heather. heather had the same grin knowing what her sister was thinking.

"lets go then" heather said jumping out of bed.

they arrived at ariel and erics room where thier parents were laying half asleep.

"yes can i help you" ariel said in a curious voice.

"mom, can we sleep with you and dad" belted out heather she hated beating around the bush she loved getting her point out.

"yes, for old time sake" melody said finishing heathers sentence.

ariel grinned at eric and to see him grinning right back at her.

they both said " sure"

heather and melody jumped in bed with their parents and they all fell asleep.

chapter 3

after eric and melody left heather was left alone with the servants and her mother! so she decided to go into the market place to see what was going around town. there was signs all around town to see the water circus. heather thought that would be fun to see. so she went and sat there in the audience.

"ladies and gentlemen boys and girls be prepared to see amazing things today" said the ring master.

heather thought yeah right i have been in the sea and ive seen everything. she had a mermaid and a fish as friends. then all of the sudden a mermaid jumped in the air. heather was shocked and the man was coming close to whipping her and then a merboy jumped with her. she knew she whould hate it if her friends were in trouble so she tried to figure a way on how to save them.

that night she snuck out of the palace she figure she couldnt get caught in the dark. so she went the circus at night.

"hello" she wispered.

she said," my name is heather and im here to help you get out of here".

but nobody answered. so she jumped in the water to see if she could see them and there they were. they tried to swim away.

"i wont hurt you" heather replied trying to calm them down.

the merboy said, " you can talk underwater, arent you a human".

heather just laughed for a moment and replied, "yes i am a human".

"then how can you talk under water", asked the mermaid.

"i dont know i just sorta was born this way", replied heather "but it is kinda cool cause i have friends on the land and in the sea".

"well anyways im here to get you out of here, cause i know i would hate if my friends were trapped at a circus".

"how will you get us out", asked the merboy.

"i think i have an idea", answered back heather.

she saw there was a gate you can only open on land so lucky for her she could go up there and open it and thats just what she did. then they heard people coming so heather dashed into the water and tried to swim for the gate but she couldnt swim as fast as the merpeople. the merboy saw her and the grabbed her arm and they escaped just in time.

"that was a close one", said heather.

"yeah it sure was", replied the mermaid out of breath.

"thank you for saving us", replied the merboy.

heather said, "no thank you for saving me".

she looked at him and he looked at her kinda like they liked eachother. the mermaid broke the silence between the two when she introduced herself.

"hi my name is areana", said the mermaid.

"my name is heather", replied heather.

"and my name is dane" replied the merboy.

"nice to meet you both",answered heather. "well i better get going i dont want my mother to worry about me".

"will we ever see you again", asked dane.

"you might", heather replied with a smile.

they both said good-bye and went into the ocean. and heather went back up on land so her mother couldnt yell at her some more.

[jodeefan12]

chapter 4

heather tried sneaking in slowly and quietly so no one would hear her but she didnt know that someone would be downstairs up.

"where have you been", asked a firm voice.

heather looked over her shoulder and there her mother was sitting in a chair looking at her with a angry look on her face.

"oh i decided to go for a walk", heather replied trying to cover up.

"really at 2 am", said ariel knowing her daughter was lying to her.

"yeah, i couldnt sleep", fired back heather getting more angry with every question ariel asked.

"so is this before you decided to go for a swim or after", asked ariel with a look on you are busted.

"im going to bed", replied heather with a yawn.

"no you arent young lady, you are going to explain why you were out this late and why you are all wet", ariel fired back with her temper growing shorter by her daughters answer.

"fine i decided to go for a walk and for a swim in the ocean, and yes i know im not suppose to be in the sea but i love it. i feel more at home in the sea then on land", fired back heather with her temper growing short like her mothers." and now im going to bed, good-night mother".

so heather stormed off upstairs not caring what her mother said. ariel furious with her daughter followed her upstairs to go to her bedroom.

[jodeefan12]

ok sorry its taking me so long to write this i havent been on the board for a while! so im hoping you like it! i do plan on finishing it though! here is some more to my story!

chapter 5

the next morning rolled around and heather wakes up to go downstairs to get some breakfast at the table. there is ariel sitting down eating some oatmeal by herself. heather almost bolts back upstairs to avoid her mother from the conversation they had last night but ariel caught her.


"where do you think you are going?", said ariel

"uhm back upstairs", replied heather.

"don't think you can avoid me, you can deal with me now or later your choice either way you are going to talk to me."

"ok fine what do you want to talk about?"

"well we can start with why you were out so late if you'd like or about the sea which ever you prefer, but we can't keep avoiding eachother. we have to talk this out no matter what. i promise to listen and not get mad if you promise to just stay and talk it out and not get angry either."

so heather sits down and talks with her mother.

"ok fine, I'll tell you what i was doing out in the sea so late. i went to the water circus yesturday and i saw this mermaid and merboy so i went lastnight to save them, i figured i couldn't get caught if i went at night."

"did you suceed?", asked ariel fascinated that her daughter helped merpeople.

"yes i did, ok mom heres the whole story. i love the sea. i have friends there. i go there every chance i get. i know you are wondering how but i can breathe underwater like the mermaids do. i dont know how i do it but i just do."

ariel was shocked about what her daugther was telling her. she couldn't even breathe underwater and she was a mermaid and here was her daughter who was part human that could.

"wow, thats pretty amazing"

"yeah i know" replied heather then takes a deep breath.

"mom"

"yes"

" how come you hate the sea so much? i mean it is so beautiful. if you saw what i saw then you would love it too."

ariel didn't know how to answer this question. she knew she would have to tell her daughters this. it was kind of easy with melody she just found out but here she had to tell heather. she didn't want to lie and say she hated the sea. she also didn't want heather going after ursula, morgana, and thier mother either because ariel knew heather she had the same adventuresome spirit as she has.

"well, its not that i don't love the sea, i do but the sea is full of dangerous things out there and i would hate to see you get hurt."

"well i dont think you have to worry about me."

"oh and why not?", asked ariel curious on what she was going to say next and kind of scared.

"well lets see flounder, lucielle, and i go on adventures all the time, we went to where the octopians and sharknians live. we battled giant sharks, octopuses, aligators, and monsters."

ariel was shocked that her and heather was so much alike. ariel use to tell eric all about her adventures in the sea when they first got married and the fact that her daughter was telling her the same stories was shocking. now she knew why eric would make those faces and ask after every story "you lived through that?" she was very scared for heathers life. it was one thing her facing those opisticals but her daughter was another thing. she love heather and didn't want to see her get hurt. now she knew how her father felt with her and why her father would yell at her but she promised not to yell at heather no matter what she told her.

"oh you did, did you?"

"yeah, why don't you believe me?"

[jodeefan12]

by the way lucielle is a mermaid friend of heathers which you'll meet later on in the story and flounder is the son of flouder! but here is some more of the story!

Chapter 6


"yes i do believe you"

"maybe you can meet my friends sometime"

"no Heather, i still think the sea is too dangerous for you to go into it"

"i just told you i can handle myself why don't you trust me?"

"it's not that i don't trust you, it's just too dangerous"

"did you not listen to what i just said? i went against all these sea monsters heck i even went into evil an seawtiches lair"

"what, who would that be?" ariel asked hoping that its not the seawicthes that she was trying to keep heather from.

"ursula, morgana, and thier mother marana we were going on one of my adventures and it looked cool so we looked in it. they were in there but they didnt see us. they were brewing up potions for something."

yeah they were brewing up potions for our family ariel thought to herself. she wanted to tell heather that she was a mermaid and she went on those same adventures but she made a promise to Eric and melody that she was going to wait until Heather was 18. she knew that melody had known since she was 12 but heather was not ready to hear it because she was not miture enough. and melody wasn't suppose to find out until her 18th birthday or sooner if they defeated morgana. but this was different there were 3 seawicthes not 1 so that means more magic and sceaming.


"mom are you ok, what are you thinking about?"

"oh nothing, but i don't want you to go into the sea ok can you promise me that you won't?"

"mom, im sorry i cant promise you that. i love the sea and i could never part with it and my friends. i told you i can handle it."
