A Sword.
A long curved sword. The short,one eyed elf by Veronica's left was polishing a long curved sword.
A sword that probably would be used to kill her if she transformed here.
She swallowed hard,thirteen scales had popped out and her legs were sticking together.
The receptionist had handed over to a registrar for a break.
The registrar was examining the shlongs Carl paid him.
Shlongs was the official currency used by both elves and sirens.
"And you say this lady is your friend?" The registrar asked,adjusting his spectacles.
"Yes", Carl replied, tugging at his collar.
The registrar glanced at Veronica, who was moving uncomfortably
" Because according to your past criminal history,you are a money faker. That means you make fake money"
Everyone looked at Carl who was sweating hard.
"Was a Money faker. I served my punishment."
The registrar nodded and gave both of them a room key.
Veronica snatched the key and ran to the room with the number on it.
"2-5-6" she murmured as she darted through the halls looking for the room.
She stopped at the room and shoved the key into the door and entered.
She immediately ran to the  bathroom and found a huge bathtub.
She instantly submerged herself in the water.
She suddenly felt a tingling sensation in her toes which became fins and her legs stuck together and skin covered them.
"Ahh" She said and raising her tail in the water.
She heard a knock on the door.
Carl.
"Veronica, you alright?Should I come in?" Caro asked,hands on the doorknob.
Veronica widened her eyes"Of course not, I'm taking a shower "
Carl gasped"I'm so sorry "
Veronica sat in the water thinking what next.
Her concoction had finished two days ago.
She needed to get a new one.
She needed to find West tower.
Her social life was in critical condition.
After her dad had slapped her.
She gritted her teeth,that wasn't her problem.
She would deal with that later,now she needed to infiltrate West Tower.
But only one question hung on her lips.
How?
*********************"*******
Ivora woke up with a start the next day.
The past day had been strange for the thirteen year old girl.
The past day.
Ivora leaped out of the bed and raced to her mothers room.
"Mama,Mama" She said,shaking her mother vigorously.
Ivy's eyes cracked open and shot a weary glance at ivora.
"Its still early"
Ivora shook her head "But we have to head to Nana's house before the elves come out"
Ivy jerked her body to stand up,she had totally forgotten she was taking ivora to her mothers for a family reunion.
To catch up on old family times.
She had had the craziest dream,she was married to Frank and they lived a happy life.
That wasn't a dream,that was a nightmare.
North of West Tower.
Burban river.
The carriage swerved to a stop and ivy and Ivora alighted.
"What're you guys even doing at the burban?" The coach asked,his hands firmly holding the reins.
"Fishing for clams and if were lucky catch a siren" Ivy replied, giving him a cutesy smile.
The coach's face lit up with a dangerous smile"If you catch one,you know how to find me"
Ivy grabbed her bag and snapped it open.
She brought out a oyster and opened it up.
She then put it to her ear and she heard mumblings on the other line before she heard a husky voice rang out"Hey,who's it?"
Ivy let out a sharp,exaggerated sigh
"Ivy,yeah,I'm on the burban river bank. Come meet me"
As soon as ivy shut the oyster,a huge whale shot out of the river,its jaw wide open.
On top of it was a marine creature,a full fledged mermaid.
The mermaid leaped off the whale,and human legs popped out immediately.
Ivy opened her arms wide for a huge hug.
The mermaid held up her finger and walked to ivora.
Ivora hid at her mother's back shivering and shaking.
The mermaid smiled wide.
"Hey honey,don't be scared I'm aunt denice" Aunt denice gave ivy a wicked glare.
"Ivy baby,you've been gone for so long. I didn't think you'd make it after running to the upper works with your lover"Denice snapped her fingers and walked to the whale.
" You comin'?"she asked with a this throwaway.
Ivy held Ivora's hand and walked into the Burban river.
Ivora sank into the sea,gulping for air.
Ivy held her hand and said something in their minds.
"Relax, you'll be okay. Just inhale the air" Ivy said, through telepathy.
Telepathy connected the minds of two sirens together.
Then they could talk but  through their minds.
"Mama,I'll sink"
Ivy shook her head"No you won't,flap your tail up and down like a bird"
Ivora did as she was told and began to swim like a full fledged mermaid.
The huge whale zoomed pass them with Denice on top of its blowhole.
Ivy tugged Ivora and they darted towards the huge metropolis under the sea.

****************************
It was a small,wooden house. It had a corral bush and seaweed patch out back.
It had a simple and homely feel to the building.
"Home sweet Home" Ivy said, swimming deep into siren lands.
The door of the house swung open and Ivy and Ivora swam in.
All Ivy's family members were there.
Bro Ryan,Uncle Joe,Grandpa Luke,Former Commander General of the army raging war against the ravenous beasts called Elves.
Her cruel sister,Denice.
The youngest of her siblings Chloe.
Ivora's six cousins darting across the huge parlor in the house.
Heidi,Clarisse, Maya,Cole,Devin and "Emily,come and greet aunt Ivy"
Emily ran,still balancing on her feet and grabbed Ivy's legs.
Ivora swam towards her cousins, and Ivy swam to her mother who was carrying a tray of meat loaf covered with nylon with one hand and balancing a line of sausages on the other.
"Aunt Ivy,I learned how to a triple stroke in case of those dirty elves" Emily said,demonstrating by swinging her hands back and forth.
"Ivy,Ivy,have you heard the news?"
"What news?"
Her mom put her hands on her hips and grinned "Ryan was appointed as the king's right hand man"
Ivy almost chuckled, she  covered her mouth with her hand.
"I didn't believe it either" Grandpa Luke spoke up through telepathy.
They all spoke through telepathy.
"Its true" Ryan butted in,holding up a golden bow and arrow encrusted with jewels and gems.
"Ivy,you and I know this bow and arrow belongs to the king"
"I'm very happy for you bro"Ivy said and hugged him hard.
Ivy spared a glance at Ivora who was a game with Clarisse.
Devin,son of her sister Jema who was six was playing checkers with Cole.
" where's Jemms?"Ivy asked.
"In the kitchen with a big surprise" Her mother said,when Ivy went to look her mouth dropped to her knees.
