Under the Sea...

"I wish I never thought those things I did the day you kissed me. If I never liked you, you would still be with Chenelle, and you would be happy. Things wouldn't have turned down this path."

That stung him to silence. "Listen this isnt going to work. WQhen we get out, Ill need a spell. dont want to remember what we had, even if did last for a little while."

Tears gathered in her eyes, but they weren't the normal tears she cried for him, they were angry tears from him yelling at her. She got up and swam over to the corner where she sat down on the sand, facing the wall, not saying a word.

Seeing her crying because of him hurt him more than any blade could ahve done. "Sorry Lila. But this hurts me mroe than it does you. You dont seem to understand that I would kill for you. Die for you. That I would dive into an active volcano to save you." He spied his family heirloom on her. He thought about what ti meant. "oh." he muttered under his breath.

"Don't talk to me!" She snapped at him without turning around. She didn't mean it, but her anger took over, and the words just came out. She was sorry as soon as she said them. She tried to stop crying, but she hurt too much. She didn't want to make this decision, she didn't ask to make this decision. No matter what she did she lost, and it hurt so bad. She loved them both, but loving them both meant more pain then she could ever imagine until now.

"I-I leave you alone. You and Ewan. I dont want to cause you so much pain. I cant. I just wish that we could be togethe-" he had an idea.

She scolded herself for yelling at him. She was so scared, and she didn't want him to leave her alone there. She didn't say anything, instead she just sat there sobbing lightly. She didn't know anymore who she wanted to be with.

He swam close to her adn carresed her neck and back. "It'll be okay. We'll get out of here. I wont leave you, at least until we get out of here."

His soothing hands felt good as they messaged her neck and back. She closed her eyes. "Please don't leave me..." She whispered. "Not ever."
She loved them both, and she silently decided she wouldn't let herself have either. It was a decision that hurt, but it had to be done. Only in death would she be able release their jealousy, anger, and sadness.

"You're not choosing either of us, are you? Listen, Ewan is the King, and he needs a king. We're equals now, but... he needs his queen. You're that queen. I wish we could be together. I know you wish the same. But Ewan needs you just as much as I do. Choose him." He kissed her one last time. A tear from his eye roled down her skin.

A mermaid in rags approached the cell. Thay immieatiatly recognized her, it was Ewan's siter.

(( actually, she was going to kill herself... ))

She couldn't believe what he said. She kissed him back, but why did it feel like their last? She closed her eyes and sighed. When she opened her eyes again she saw Thay looking at the mermaid.

Thay picked up on her emotions again. "Lila! Don't kill yourself!" Thay cried out.

The mermaid looked on at the display. Thay considered. "How did I...?"
The mermaid interupted. "My talent is bringing magic where there is no magic..." "Oh. You're Ewan's sister aren't you?" The mermaid had a glint of hope in her eye. "I havent heard that name in a long time."

"It's my own choice!" She yelled back at him, tears of pain falling down her cheeks. She shouted this at him before he spoke to the mermaid.

She watched Thay and the mermaid talk. She swam to the corner and sat down again, looking down at the sand.

"Im here tog et you out of here." said the mermaid. Thay ignored at the moment. "Its your choice to cause to men you love that much pain?" Hehad made his decision. He turned to the Mrmaid. "Thanks. We need to get to the kings chambers." The mermaid stood there, floating in place expresionless. "Okay." she took out a key and opened the door. Thay turned to Lila. He swam to her, and carresed her flipper with his. "it'll be okay honey. Let's go."

She was about to protest that she didn't mean to cause them pain, she just wanted to end it all. But she didn't, she watched the mermaid unlock the cell. She followed Thay out quietly, not saying anything and trying not to think anything so he wouldn't know what she was thinking.

Thay shook his head amused. "You cant hide your emotions". he said to her. "You won't die today," He swam with Ewan's sister. "I never caught your name?" The mermaid smiled. She was pretty, but it was marre bythe dirt and rags she wore. He smiled back. She spoke. "Its Alexia" "What a pretty name."

She followed quietly, then remembered what Thay had said before. "You're Ewan's sister?"

The mermaid turend around. "Yes i am. You his mistress? He alwayz was a player... didnt alwayz mean what he said. he was good at it, even young." Thay stood in front. "We'll need weapons." Alexia nodded.
