Two days passed,since Nelly had been grounded.She was not going out with her friends.She only went out for school and went back home for studying.Her mother had taken her cellphone.Nelly could not call or text to Ethan.It would not matter anyway.Ethan had not called her or texted her since the day he left.
The King had invited his son and his soldiers to the Palace.The King seemed anxious.
"Father!What is it going on?"Inkan asked.
"It is an emergency"the King warned.The soldiers were whispering to each other.
"Quiet!"the King commanded.
The soldiers stopped to whisper.
"A ship is about to come.A marine ship.Inside this ship,there is the nephew of the marine whose uncle betrayed Nelly's mother and the whole mermaid nation.That ship is so dangerous because we cannot even circulate.They are going to watch the sea,all the time.We have to sink that ship"the King said.Inkan was silent for a while.But he took a deep breath and he had courage.
"Who is the nephew?"Inkan asked.When the King confessed the name,Inkan commanded:"Soldiers!Follow me!"
When he openned the door,Alicia,Kelcy and Crystalena appeared.
"What is going on?"Crystalena asked.Inkan explained the situation.They were shocked when they heard all that stuff.
"Inkan,wait!"Alicia said and followed him.
Inkan and his soldiers had gone out of the Palace.
"What do you want?"he asked her.Alicia could not speak.The only ,she did, was to kiss him.
"Alicia,please.Do not make the things worse"Inkan said to her calmy.It was obvious that he did not have any feelings for her.
Alicia started to cry.Kelcy and Crystalena approached her.
"What were you thinking?"Kelcy asked.
"I won't hide my feelings anymore"Alicia said.Crystalena grabbed her from her neck.
"You had played with the fire,Alicia"it was the only thing she said.It was 23:00am.Nelly was sleeping.She woke up.She saw a marine ship through the window.Ethan would be there.The only thing she did,was just watching the ship who was coming.
Inkan and his mermen soldiers attacked to the ship.Their purpose was to sink it.The marines were terrified.The ship began to sink.Some mermen jumped to the ship and fought with the marines.Ethan was in his cabine with a friend.When they realized what was going on,they went to the deck.They saw angry mermen trying to sink the ship.The Captain lost the control of the ship.
Suddenly,Ethan watched Inkan.Inkan looked him like he was an enemy.The next step was Inkan's attack to Ethan.His friend tried to kill Inkan with a gun.But Inkan watched it and hit Ethan's friend with his tail.
"You gonna pay the price!"Inkan threatened.
"Nelly is mine!"Ethan said.Inkan laughed like an evil.He had become evil with his actions.
"I am not talking only about that.Your uncle tried to betray our spiece.He died.So will you.How would Nelly react if she found out your secret?"Inkan said.The turbine was on fire.Ethan's friend went to save him again,but Inkan hit him with his tail and injured him badly and jumped to the water.Ethan tried to help his friend,who was bleeding.
"People come to help us.Everything will be okay!"Ethan assured."First aids,quickly!"And a nurse came to help the injured friend.Nelly realized that the ship was sinking.The mermaid's instrict was telling her that Inkan and his mermen were attacking to the ship.
"Oh,no..."
She could not leave from the door.So she jumped from the window.Inkan was under the water and waiting for his soldiers to accomplish the mission.
"Inkan!"a voice was heard.It was mermaid Nelly.
"Stop the attack,please.I will do everything,I will stay with you,but please stop the attack!"Nelly begged.
Inkan was inflexible.
"If Ethan gets hurt,I will never forgive you!"Nelly warned.She was ready to go and save Inkan.
"Have you ever wondered who is the real Ethan?"Ethan was still with his friend.The nurse had left.Suddenly,Nelly came up to the surface.Ethan's friend was terrified.Meanwhile,the help had not come.
"Sshh.She will help you"Ethan said.Nelly touched his cheeks and said some words in ancieny greek language.It was prayers to Poseidon to heal the injured and forget that mermaids exist.
The ship was about to explode.Nelly grabbed Ethan and his friend and jumped to the water.Then,the ship was explode.Almost all the marines and some of the mermen were dead.Nelly drove them to the port.There were survivors but they were compelled to forget everything.
Nelly asked help from a policeman and he helped the three of them.Nelly was human and Ethan's friend was healed.Reporters,policemen,ambulances and other people had been gathered.
"Thanks"Ethan said.Nelly did not speak.Ethan was about to hug her but she slapped him and left crying.
"Hey?What's up?"
He followed her.Nelly stopped walking.
"You lied to me!I told you everything and you..."Nelly felt on knees and cried.
"I could not tell you the truth.I knew about my uncle's death and that he was a dick but when I learned the cause of his death,I was in shock!I love you,I could never hurt you..."
"But you did!Do you know something?I would choose to live as a human not only because of my family,but because of you.But now,I change my mind..."
Ethan could not accept losing his beloved Nelly.
Nelly left.Inkan had been watching everything from the water.And then,he was lost in the dark sea.
