Mako's Last Black-Tailed Mermaid

Kayla Smith

I remember everything.

*FLASHBACK*

Oh no. Zac found out that he is actually a real merman. And that his parents aren't his real parents.

"Zac, I know this must be hard to take in, but you're my brother. Don't you see? We found each other!" Mimmi said happily.

"I'm not you're brother! I don't want anything to do with you!" He shouted at Mimmi.

Then he turned to face me. He raised his index finger and pointed at me. If looks could kill, I would be dead.

"And You! I don't want anything to do with you. Out of everybody that has disappointed me in my life, the biggest disappointment would be you! If you killed yourself, I wouldn't care. In fact, I don't think anybody would care! That's how worthless you are to everybody! Nobody loves you and our mother killed herself just to get away from you. You can die for all i care. So do us all a favour and just die!!!" He shouted at me. I felt a tear stain my cheek and i let it sit there.

"Kayla, he didn't mean it. He just found out that his parents weren't his real parents. And that you and Mimmi are his only family he has left. Wouldn't you be surprised too?"Evie asked.

"It's OK, i probably deserved that." I said and walked off. I didn't know where i was going. But I just ran somewhere.

I walked into the nearby woodshed and cried. I stayed there that night and the following morning, i began my bad habit. I started to cut.

If the only person that i feally looked up to, thought i should die, then so would I. Every night, i would attempt suicide and everytime, it would fail.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

That was 2 months ago. The rest of the mermaids and mermen have obviously moved on and forgiven one another.

But everybody had forgotten about me. Which i was OK with. I have started to wear more and more, pants and long sleeve tops. I had to wear scarves to cover the scars and scabs on my neck. I had to now cover, EVERY inch of my body where I had cut.

And i didn't only cut, sometimes i would even burn. I have nothing to eat and no money. I don't have a degree, so I cannot work at a real job. I was a lone in the world.

Especially beacuse i was the last rare Black-Tailed Mermaid left in the whole world.

My mother, Narissa had left me here with the pod, but then i was banished and I came on land. I basically had the exact same adventure as Sirena, but alone. She had Ondina and Mimmi. I have me, myself and I.

Anyway, today was my first day back at school. A lot had happened in the last 2 months. I had been raped, i almost killed myself every single night and I had been told that I was pregnant but cannot afford the abortion. So yay!! (Note the sarcasm).

I walked into the school grounds with a thick black scarf, my black fat pants, my black tank top and my black converse. If you hadn't noticed, black is now my favourite colour.

The bell rang for everyone to get to their first class. Which, for me was science with Miss Gradey.

She absolutely hated me. She calls me names and abuses me after class, when everybody is gone. I walked in and sat down with the rest of my classmates. Zac was also in my class.

He was seated in front of the only seat available. So i sat behind him. He gave me this REALLY apologetic look. I just shook it off and sat down with my pencil and book.

"Now today we are-" Miss Gradey started. Then she gave me an evil smirk.

"Kayla, why don't you tell the whole class what we are doing, since you obviously know what we are studying this term." She said. I didn't say anything.

Over the year, i have learnt to never acknowledge Miss Gradey as she will just shake it off anyway. But she didn't let this go.

"I said speak, girl!" She shouted at me. I decided to use my Black-Tailed magic for some good. I read her mind and knew exactly what we were doing.

"We are studying the chemicals and bacteria found in marine animals for the term and then we will be writing an essay on 1 animal we found interesting." I said, giving her a taste of her own medicine.

"That is correct. See me after class Miss Smith." She said. Here goes the rest of the day!

When the bell for the end of class rang, all of the students, except me left. I stayed seated and waited as Miss Gradey drew the blinds and closed the door.

"How could you have possibly known that?!" She shouted at me. I gulped. What should I say?!

"I saw your notes as you walked into the class and I memorised them." I said.

Phew. She looked me up and down and then when she seemed satisfied, she told me to leave before she beat my ass. (A/N Sorry about the language).

I ran out of class when I saw Zac, Cam, Evie and Carly. I walked right past and then some guy picked me up and threw me against the lockers. And can i just say, that hurt SO much.

"Not so cool anymore, now are you, slut!" Some jocks behind the guy started laughing as the dude holding me up, thrashed me on the floor by my throat.

They left and I stood up as soon as I coukld and looked in Zac's direction. They all had shocked faces and Cam looked like he was about to walk over when i started to cry and ran off.

As you could see, not a lot of people liked me at my school, since they found out i was pregnant. Well at least everybody but Zac, Cam, Carly and Evie. But they were bound to find out from someone, so I'm going to count them too.

I ran to the school's bathroom and locked the door with my powers. Then i took my blade out and slid it into my wrist. I let the blood pour out and i repeated this process until the next bell rang. Then i cleaned up, unlocked the door and walked out with my earplugs in my ears.

Names echoed in my head as people said them while walking into their classes. Hoe. Slut. Whore. Idiot. Bitch. You name it. And this was just another day of my life.

Hey!!

How are you liking my new book? I decided to make one about Mako Mermaids because, admit it, every girl wants to have a tail, swim with fish and have powers. I'm just like anyone of those girls, so waa-laa!

Love you
