The Little Mermaid II: Tales of the Land and Sea (Melody x Male OC)

Chapter 4: Secrets of the Sea

Barry and Melody were still rowing the boat, Melody saw Barry looking at his locket as she asked, "So what's in the locket, Barry?"

Barry hesitates before he opens the locket and Melody looks at it and sees a picture of Arwen and Barry's father who has black hair with brown eyes and in Arwen's arm is Barry as a baby.

As Melody asked, "Are those your parents?"

As Barry said, "This was taken on the day I was born. My mother said she and my father were never happier than on that day."

As Melody said, "I could see the smile on their face." She smiled as she said, "You know Barry I'm really glad I met you today."

As Barry asks, "You are?" As Melody said, "I really didn't want to go to that party earlier. Whenever people look at me they think I'm weird."

As Barry said, "Well what's wrong with that? Just because you're different doesn't make you weird, it makes you a unique Melody and for what it's worth I'm glad I met you too."

Melody smiled as Barry said, "My mom always says being different is special." As Melody said, "Your mom must be great. My mom is hiding something from me." She looked at the locket as she said, "She's hiding something from me and she forbade me from going out the wall."

As Barry said, "Well sometimes it's better than at town. Always scraping for food and ducking the guards."

As Melody said, "I don't think my mom would understand me."

As Barry said, "Sometimes you feel so..."

As Melody said, "It's like you're..."

As they both said at the same time, "Trapped."

They both look at each other realizing they have some things in common causing them to smile before Barry breaks the look as he said, "You know Melody it was your mom who gave me the courage to talk to you?"

As Melody asked, surprised, "Really?"

As Barry said, "Yeah."

As Barry and Melody continue paddling Barry hears a rumbling and looks up to see storm clouds coming in.

As Barry said, "Uh Melody we might want to take a break and look for shelter."

As Melody said, "Don't worry Barry, a little rain never hurt anyone."

As Barry said, "But a lot can drown you."

Soon it started to pour and Barry and Melody were paddling through the waves. As the storm becomes more intense waves start slamming into them.

As Barry said, "We gotta find shelter!"

As Melody asked, "But where?!"

Barry sees the area and in the distance, sees a small hidden cavern. As he said, "Melody hang on just a little longer!" They soon paddle and make it inside the cave.

As Barry and Melody were walking through the cave Melody was shivering from the storm. As Barry said, "Don't worry Melody I'll try and find something to start a fire."

Melody looks around as she says, "This place looks like nobody has been here in years."

As Barry said, "Yeah, let's stay together."

Suddenly thunder echoes, causing Melody to jump in surprise and grab Barry's hand. Both of them blush as they keep walking when they hear something groaning as Melody asks, "Did you hear something?"

As Barry said, "Yeah it's coming from over there."

As they follow the sound they find a large Boulder trapping a gigantic eagle under it. Barry and Melody jumped back in shock as Barry said,
