Under the Sea...

((guys wont be on 2nite and more than likely 2morrow niote, so um could like not... play till then> I am the king ya know!))

(((Aw, I'll pause although I'm not in the plot much. Take care)))

~Chee, sorry luv but I cant do that. As Tela said, were not really in the plot, so it doesn't make a difference what we do...~

😑

((LTA dude you didn't pause for me when I wasn't here and when I came back it was like 10 pages longer!!!))

Lila blushed at the compliment. She cuddled gently against Thay, but suddenly she felt this unexplainable feeling that there was something wrong. Ewan flashed through her mind. She looked up at Thay, feeling bad she had to cut their date short. "I have to go back to the palace, I think Ewan needs me." She kissed Thay on the cheek. "I'm sorry to end this." She said, reffering to their date. She glanced back up at the lights and then began her swim back to the palace.

When Lila got back to the palace, Ewan was standing on a balcony overlooking the courtyard, leaning against a marble railing. His brow was furrowed, deep in thought.

((sorry not standing.... err... floating))

She swam to the entrance leading out to the balcony. "Did you call me, m'lord?" She asked quietly. She know the thought was absurd, but she truly thought that he called her.

Ewan turned to face Lila. "Don't call me that, Lila," he said, a serious and concerned look on his face. "Yes, I did call you.."

She looked down. "I'm sorry." She said quietly, slowly she looked back up at him. "But you are the king." She slowly swam up to him. "What's wrong?" She ran her hand along the side of his face.

"The Atlantians are coming.. Ten thousand of them, maybe more. I.. I need your help."

Her eyes became sad as a knot of fear twisted in her stomach. She placed her hands on his bare chest. "You're not going, are you?"

Lindar was below the balcony quietly playing ball with himself. He would hit the ball with his tail.

"No... I can't go.. The counsel told me that if I left the kingdom, it would fall." He moved in closer to her and placed his hands on her shoulders.

A sigh of relief left her lips and she hugged him. She slowly pulled away. "What do you need my help with..?" She almost added the two words 'my lord' but stopped herself.

"I need you to tell the merpeople that I've become king.. I don't know how, but you have to. If I tried to, they would think I'd taken over, killed the king or something."

She nodded. "I shall do it." The sun was far from rising. "You should get some sleep. I'll tell the merpeople of the palace upon first light. I'll call them for a gathering, and have them welcome their new king."

Ewan nodded. Then he leaned over and kissed Lila before heading back to his room to get some sleep.

((well. i see Ewan has having fun. ill be on in another three hrs.))
