With a Flick of my Tail

What?

              Recap:

"Mom! No! Don't come down here!" She was already standing down at the water by the time those few words escaped my mouth. She was standing there with her mouth agape and a slight smile on her face.

"My daughter's a mermaid.", she was laughing slightly to herself. She kept mumbling that and laughing to herself like she was crazy.

"Mom, why don't you sit down." I lugged myself out of the water and quickly dried my bright blue tail off. As soon as it was dry, it disappeared, the scales fading back to skin. My sparkly yellow bikini slowly made its way back into view again along with my skin. My mom's face changed from a look of insanity to a look of horror then to a look of awe. She sat down and tried to gain her composure. After a few minutes, she finally said,"W-what just happened?"

"Seriously, now, will someone please tell me what is going on here!?!", she shouted for the fifth time in the past minute.

"No mom," I replied ," just drop it."

"No, I will not just drop it! Now I demand to know what is going on!"

"No".

"Seraphina Lilian Anderson!"

"Grrr.... Mom! You know I don't like being called that."

"Exactly, it was the only way for you to listen to me".

"Fine, ask away, but we get answers, too.", I sighed.

"Agreed. Now, when did you start having, well, you know?"

"It started today, actually - for both of us.", I said pointing to Emerald and me."I guess it starts on your sixteenth birthday, right, Zane?"

"Well, yeah, actually - for royals, that is.", he said.

"Royals?"

"Yeah, I'll explain later."

"Okay, so, umm, I guess, am I adopted?", I asked.

"Well, yes, sweetie, you are. I'm so sorry. I should have told you sooner.", she told me.

"It's ok."

"Seraphina", Zane asked.

"Yeah?"

"Well we kind of have to go to see your mermaid parents.", Zane said nervously as if I was just going to snap on him.

"When?"

"Now..."

"Now?"

"Yes, now. Your father gave me a communicator to talk to him to let him know when you are coming, he is demanding to see you now.", Zane sid shakily.

"Now? Wow, someone's demanding. Who is he - King of the Seas?", I said with sarcasm.

"Well, yes, actually."
