Selkien walks into the room, the dark creaky wooden floor boards breaking slightly, under her weight. Toby announced that there was going to be a serious fight and they needed to prepare for deaths.
An extremely angry villager argued " why is she here, she's just a weak small woman. She can't do shit!"
Selkien answered " excuse me, I will fight, I will fight! And you will not tell me who or what I am. I will fight, I will fight for my father. The only thing he wanted was revenge, great revenge!"
Toby chuckles and says " u hear that? COZ' SHE TOLD YOU!" Selkien gives the villager a side glance, stares him up and down then gives him a dirty look.
*after two months of training and thoughtless fighting and arguing*
Selkien steps forward to the enemies dressed like this:

Newt looks up at her nervously and starts to shake, out of fear and confusion she takes him aside and says " I can't do this either, I really can't. Everyone says I'm just a weak woman, help me, please"
Newt states " you can always come with me, I've always heard the stories about your father and let me just say, I am very very sorry"
*he walks away and Selkien follows curiously*
* everyone is wondering where they are*
They run as fast as they can, they keep running and running and running until they made it to there destination, A ship, a mighty ship. Laid softly on top the glistening reflective water. So satisfying.
She finally felt free. Happiness blanketed her, all her troubles just washed away and she felt a sense of relief. Is this what happiness felt like? she was astonished, she always wanted this pressure lifted off her shoulders and it finally happened. She had this bizarre thought that newt gave her this amazing guilt free feeling, what if Newt was the one?
He made her feel safe, rapped up in security and love. Contentment filled up her body from her toes to the tip of her head. She felt power. She felt loved, not that fake stuff, she felt real love. Love that causes nervousness and honesty.
This caused her to stutter, tremble or not even speak when she was spoken too. She had never felt this disturbing feeling. For the last 5 years all she felt was anger, rage, sadness and confusion. Then all of a sudden a random boy demolishes those feelings in less than 2 hours. She knew her answer. Her answer was Newt is her love, her one and only.
Her beatitude was like a bud opening in the spring, happiness blossomed within her, it's sweet fragrance eradicating the fetid decay of the previous season. Her love for newt was like a garden meant for cultivating flowers but overgrown with weeds and thorns. He overwhelmed her like an addictive drug consuming every fibre of her being. Like suffocating, like drowning in a bottomless trench filled with love and cacoethes.
Avoiding him felt so deplorable, her heart felt so empty. Her body felt so numb. She felt like she was dragging a lifeless disgusting blob around when she took a step.
She stopped. She talked to Him. As she spoke she started to shake and began to stutter She walked up to him slowly, her head held down and hair covered her elegant smooth face. Selkien stood tall, her posture straightened and she took a deep breath and said " hi, I'm sorry I've been ignoring you. I was scared and confused. I hope you understand"
Newt assures hr and says " I totally understand u don't have to feel any sort of pressure.. if that's what your even saying. I just thought u hated me but now that I know your don't, I want to tell you something"
"Yea what's up" she answers
" well I kinda like you. Like a lot and I want you to know" He states with a nervous look on his face
"Wait really! Because I-I like you too! Like a lot." She says with a bright smile on her face
" you have a beautiful smile. You know that?" Newt says with a loving smirk on his handsome face She chuckles and stares at the ground fiddles with her fingers. Newt lifts her face up by her chin using his finger and says " I could look into those deep doe eyes for days." And smirks.
Selkien stays silent and laughs nervously. Newt picks her up slightly by her waist, making her tiptoe. He lightly caressing her jaw and kisses her with strong power. She desired more.
After that night she felt extremely relaxed and fulfilled.
The next morning she was awakened by a loud deep scream for help coming from newt. "HELP" "SELKIEN HELP NOW, THERES A STORM"
she rushes over to him and a Asks what's happening " A STORM C'MON WE NEED TO GET OUTA' HERE. NOW" They both sprint to the safety boat (as it was labelled) She tightly grabs his had and they jump into the boat and paddle.
Selkien POV: Like a giant fist, the waves rose up and slammed it to the shore, savage and angry, it splashed onto our faces every seconded we tried to move, like tiny sharp needles stabbing our faces. This carries on for about 4 hours. Whilst this terrible tempest is occurring they scream, they laugh, and they act like there the masters of the world.
After the storm, the ocean sat still and calm, reflecting the sky like a mirror. The sparkles glisten in the beautiful sunlight.
Readers POV: They stop near the forest. They slow,y step in curiously and look around in amazement. Choked by its own overgrown branches, the forest resembled a sprawling fortress, barricading the earth from the warmth of the sun and the blue of the sky. A carpet of fine evergreen needles, covered the forest floor, perfuming the clearing with a pungent yet sweet scent.After 3 hours of venturing through this suffocating forest, filled with dense vines. Selkien looks around and starts to tremble she feels claustrophobic and trapped. Her fear was like an icy-cold hand that dragged her hostage in an iron grip, she felt forced into this dungeon like region. She was fascinated at first but then a sense of revere built up in her. She felt choked, all the trees where intwined, formed a tunnel. A tunnel where all your biggest fears held. She felt as if she walked into that tunnel.
Newt notices and tells her to calm down in a very sympathetic tone and voice. He slowly grabs her hand and speaks to her slowly and calmly he says " hey hey hey, you need to calm down. We're fine, your fine. We're going to get out of here, follow me I've found a way out. After u calm down we'll leave, ok?"
Selkien trembles and her breathe begins to shake. She says okay and focuses purely on her breathing. After 10 minutes she is starting to go back to normal.
They start running out of the forest and enters a city. Something they've never seen before. All this time they've been trapped in there own two villages. It felt as if there was an unbreakable force field surrounding there villages. They felt free. They felt fresh, they felt revived.
