The Scar of Memories

Chapter 2: What Is Happening To Me

Chapter 2: What Is Happening To Me

I woke up in the middle of the night feeling strange. I can't describe this feeling it's like I can't breathe properly like what I'm suppose to breathe isn't air, like my legs are melding together. I feel like something is calling me, and trying to make me remember something important. Something from before I came here before I was human. Wait were did that thought come from why wouldn't I be human.

Then I remembered in the attic is the stuff I had brought with me when I first found dad. He had told me I wouldn't even let him look at the stuff I had. For some reason my mind was telling me that those objects are very important for understanding who I am.

Walking up the ladder to the attic I saw a little bag made of seashells and I was glowing. It was pulling me towards it this must be the bag I had brought with me from my life before I moved here. I slowly walked towards it the glow dimming as I came closer. I could here music coming from inside it.

Bending down in front of the bag I opened it. At first it just seemed like I used to have an obsession with mermaids. Because I had a mermaid locket when I opened it music filtered out. It was litterly a locket shaped like a mermaid. I also had a globe that said Aradien on it and had mermaids swimming around a castle with little houses surrounding it.

There was also a photo album, but when I opened it the pictures in there didn't make any sense. Inside was pictures of me when i was younger and who I assumed was my mother. The weird part is that we had tails in the picture. My mother had a bright blue tail and long red hair. The picture of me had my purple and red hair, my

silvery-purple eyes, and a long silver tail with splashes of other colors all mixed in.

It doesn't make any sense I can't be a mermaid neither can mom. It has to be a dream that's it I'm dreaming! Of course I am how could I be a mermaid. I've never sprouted a tail in the bathtub. I'll wake up in the morning and none of this had ever happened.

Next thing I know I blacked out. There's a mermaid who looks like an older version of my picture and a merman with a bright green tail, but I can't see his face.

"Princess," the merman said.

"Yes," I answered.

"I don't know if I'll ever actually find you in real life. We've looked for you forever. Your grandparents are worried and the number of times I see you in a dream are dimming. I can't even see what you look like at all. Please tell me your name princess. Time is running out," the merman said.

"What do you mean," I asked.

"The longer we can't find you the easier it will be for......" but it cut off there and the merman was slowly getting farther and farther away.

"Wait come back. Don't leave me," I screamed out.

Waking up with a jolt I realized that I was still in my bedroom. I knew what happened in the attic wasn't real. Looking at my clock I saw it was 7:00 time to get up. I hurriedly put on my uniform and ran downstairs.

"Morning dad," I said kissing his cheek.

"Goodmorning Ky. I was just about to call you," dad replied pulling me down for a hug.

"Yeah yeah dad. What is it fend for myself day today," I said not seein my breakfast anywhere.

"Sorry Ky, but I have to leave in a minute. I got up later then I was suppose to and I have a major meeting at the Marina today," dad said.

"Ok dad. Bye love you," I said shooing him out the door.

"Bye Ky. Be good."

"Yeah. Yeah dad," I said shutting the door behind him.
