Eryn's eyes look towards the blue sky, watching the tall trees of the forest lining the street. Her eyes trace down to meet with her best friends.

"So far, I dislike land, 'it's for your safety' they said, 'it should be fun' they said, yeah fun" Eryn complains. Emily holds back her laughter.

"Eryn, could you not complain about every little thing, really, it isn't too bad, and it is for your safety" Skye, Eryn's sister begins.

"Whatever, sure there isn't any damn sea people trying to kill me, but who knows what wild things are in there" Eryn says pointing into the large forest they walk along.

"True, but..." Skye starts

"don't make this seem better then it is... cause it never will be, it sucks, and you both know it" Eryn argues. The three girls walk in silence.

"Do you guys hear that?" Emily questions as the three hear footsteps walking behind them. Skye looks back, nothing.

"I think we've all gone insane" Skye states.

"There it is again" Emily says

"Does it smell like dog to you?" Skye points out a slight sent in the air. Eryn looks over her shoulder to see nothing.

"Did you just say I smell like dog" A voice speaks up from behind them. The girls all turn to see two shirtless men. Standing muscles tense.

"Uh, I'm sorry who are you?" Skye questions the boys.

"Howon, and this is Dongwoo" the other boy speaks. The boys sniffs the air
"something smells a little fishy here" he states.

"Mermaids?" the one named Dongwoo asks abruptly. All the girls eyes widen.

"No, what, those kinds of things aren't even real" Skye replies.

"Don't worry, you can tell us" Dongwoo continues.

"No really" Skye starts.

"They are, I sense it" Howon states.

"Well, we're werewolves, so if you're mermaids you can tell us" Dongwoo explains. Emily looks over at Eryn. Skye takes in a deep breath

"yeah we.." Skye begins

"You are!" Dongwoo exclaims cutting Skye's words off.

"But your eyes are weird" Howon says leaning in closer to Eryn, whose eyes widen. "They have a purple like glow" Howon continues, looking from one eye to the other. Eryn turns away, looking over at her best friend. Howon shrugs, "cool eye colour" he states.

Eryn lets out a deep breath. "Well, it was nice meeting you, but we must get going" Skye says with a forced smile. The three girls turn away, and begin walking down the street towards their house.

"Wait!" Dongwoo's voice yells. "When will we meet again?" his voice lowers as Skye turns to him. She smiles, and turns back towards the house, leaving him without a reply.

Skye heads straight for the kitchen, Emily and Eryn lean on the counter. "I say we go on a walk after dinner" Skye states.

"Why?" Emily questions

"because, I think it would be nice to walk around our new city" Skye answers.

"You mean forest" Eryn states, Skye looks up from the cutting board.

"What, you just wanna 'accidentally' run into the hot wolves again" Eryn continues. "Well, it'd be nice" skye says. Emily facepalms at Skye "Sure, why not" she says.

The girls make their way out from their house. Full from their dinner, they walk towards the forest path way. Skye leads the way into the family of trees, as Eryn stays at the back unimpressed. "By the way, why did you feel dangered earlier?" Skye questions Eryn. Meaning why her eyes went to a purple glow, like sirens do when they feel like they're in danger.
