Beware the Mermaids (Hiccelsa)

Prologue

"ALL SET YOUR SAILS TO THE WEST, KEEP THIS DIRECTION AND HOLD ONTO SOMETHING!!"

The storm was at its top in the cold night, making the ship became wobbly all the time. The ship crews couldn't help but to do what their female captains commanded. They all set the sails to the west, as if they knew which direction west was.

With the professional captains commanding, the ship amazingly managed to crawl over each wave of brewing sea water, until the whole water suddenly calmed down, leaving no sound except the sound of the pouring rain. The female captain, who was holding down the steering, released it and used her sharp eyes to scan the water in front of the ship. The thunders helped her scanning the sea, because of its light. All she saw was nothing but a calm water with rain pouring on it.

"WE DID IT! WE PASSED THE RAGING STORM!" a ship crew exclaimed in excitement.

The whole ship crew cheered happily and danced in celebration. The female captain just smiled as she looked at them. Her attention was turned to her sister, who tapped her shoulder.

"Congrats, Captain Elsa." she said, smiling playfully.

Captain Elsa hugged her sister immediately, and patted her back several times. "You too, Captain Anna." she said as she pulled away. "I guess we finally can expand our map here, huh?" Elsa said, picking up a scroll of map from a nearby box, looking at it proudly.

"You bet. Now if you excuse me, I'll get you a drink." Anna said, walking down to the deck. While she was gone, Elsa opened her map, and laid it down on the floor. Her gaze was locked to a point where it was marked with a circle, which told that her previous location was at that point. With some calculation with her finger, and some measuring the wind speed with her finger as well, she marked another point with a marker. Seeing it, she gasped in horror.

"Wait, this area... A storm will pass you but will consume you in a more vicious way by releasing its nightmares. The nightmares will climb onboard your ship and drag you one by one... Is this story true?" she said, remembering to an old folk that she just said.

She decided to bug it off, and scrolled her map back and put it back into the nearby box. She stood up, and looked onto the deck.

There was no one.

Not even a single crew.

A footstep caught Elsa's attention, she saw Anna walking out the staircase at the deck, holding 2 glasses of beers on her hand. She looked around, and saw no one. "Elsa? Where's everyone? There's no one as well inside the belly!" Anna said, looking worried. Elsa didn't reply, she looked around her, until when Anna was walking towards her direction, something flew down towards her from the water and caught her.

"ELSAA!!" She screamed, as the creature jumped into the water.

Elsa watched this, and gasped in horror. She jumped into the water, leaving nobody onboard.

She looked for her sister in rush, her attention turned to a screaming noise, but was rather choked because of the water. Elsa looked to her left, and saw a woman, but with giant fish fin on her legs, biting Anna on the neck. Anna looked hopeless, she tried to break free, but it only made the whole thing became worst from ugly. Elsa swam desperately to her sister, the creature suddenly swam away from Anna.

As Elsa reached Anna, she grabbed her and swam onto the surfaces. While on the way, she felt a sharp pain on her neck. She looked to his right, and found that the creature bit her. Elsa felt dizzy, but she forced herself to stay conscious. She grabbed her sword and stabbed the creature on the chest, making the creature to let go Elsa and screamed in pain. Elsa looked at the creature in disgust, and turned back to her sister, who was shaking like hell inside the water, as if she was infected by something.

"E-elsa...!" Anna said, underwater. Even though Elsa couldn't hear it, she could read her lips. Her clothes ripped apart, and her legs shaped into fins. She looked like in pain, until Elsa herself, found out that the same thing was happening on her.
