La Sirenita

Chapter 1

Couple of things you should know before you read this. There is a crab called Jorge in this and yes I plan to make him Jamaican because it's funny, Davi is a fish, Senor Chapi can say more than Viva pantalones, and Che is a grandson of Sartana, also Frida is sixteen and Manny is eighteen in this hope you enjoy and please don't be rude. 

Once upon a time there lived two separate kingdoms that were both different in many ways but also glorious and thriving. One was the kingdom of the land which was home to many people, most of them sailors and explorers. They were ruled over by the good and honorable King Rodolfo, his wife the lovely and kind Queen Maria, and their young son Prince Manny. He was a brave young man with good intentions but he was very adventurous and spent most of his time sailing and having fun with his pet Zebra Donkey rather than do boring things like politics.

"Isn't this great?" Manny said as he watched the ocean from one of the ships. "The salty sea air, the wind blowing in your face, ah. Perfect day to be at sea."

"Oh yes, it's simply." Rodolfo said turning green as he got seasick. "Delightful."

"You okay Dad?"

"Oh hijo, why couldn't you hunt or fence like the other princes do for fun?"

"I fine strong wind and a following sea, King Emiliano must be in a friendly type mood." A sailor said.

"King Emiliano?" Manny said.

"Why ruler of the merpeople lad." Another one said.

"He's king of the sea and commander of all the ocean."

"He's also got three fair daughters." A third one said. "I hear he's youngest is the prettiest."

"Manny can we please go back?" Rodolfo pleaded. "I'm about to heave ho!"

"Okay Dad we'll-"

Then he became distracted by a lovely voice singing from the sea. "What is that? Dad did you hear that?"

"Hear what?"

"Singing, coming from the ocean."

"Must be the sea king's youngest daughter." The first sailor said. "She sings like an angel you know."

"Really?"

"Aye lad, there's no sound more magnificent, the merpeople adore her singing and we sailors don't mind it either."

"Merpeople." Rodolfo scoffed. "Manny pay no attention to this nautical nonsense."

"But it ain't nonsense it's the truth!" Second sailor said holding up a fish that flipped and flopped in Rodolfo's face.

"Ugh, do you mind?"

"Sorry your highness."

"Manny we really should be getting back. We can't keep your mother waiting and I've thrown up at least three times."

"Not yet Dad! Follow that voice!" Manny ordered the man at the wheel. "To the ends of the earth if you have to."

"Aye-aye captain."

The other kingdom was the sea which just as the sailors had said, was home to the merpeople and they were ruled over by the wise yet short tempered King Emiliano. With his trident he ruled his underwater kingdom with a just hand along side his beloved Queen Carmela who was very loving and adored music. But she died a long time ago leaving behind their three daughters for him to raise alone.

Anita, Nikita, and Frida. All three were quite pretty but Frida was the most beautiful and she possessed a wonderful singing voice which she inherited from her dearly departed mother. But she was also a very free spirited girl and was more interested in observing the human world than being prim and proper like her sisters which often led her and her father to butt heads. Especially since the sea king hated humans.

That aside, today was a festival to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the sea kingdom but before the festivities could begin, the sea king insisted on having a concert be preformed by his daughters.

"Jorge." Emiliano called.

"Yes sir." A crab asked. Jorge was the king's advisor.

"Is everything ready?"

"Yes sire, your daughters have been practicing for hours, they will sing to perfection."

"Especially my Frida."

"Ah yes, she has the most beautiful voice. Why I haven't heard anything thing so lovely since..." He said trailing off nervously.

"Her mother the queen I know." He said. "My dear Carmela may she rest in peace."

"Well I better get your daughters ready." He scurried back stage "Everyone here? Anita?"

"Here." Said a mermaid with a blue tail, a matching two strap bra, and brown hair tied into low pigtails.

"Nikita?"

"Here." Said another mermaid with a yellow tail and matching one strap bra who looked similar to Anita except her hair was tied into high pigtails.

"Frida?"

No answer.

"Frida?" They looked around but she was no where to be seen. "Where is that girl?"

"Uh-oh, looks like our little sister has wandered off again." Anita said.

"Daddy's not going to like this." Nikita said.

"Ohhh! You're darn right he's not going to like this! Your is going to be furious and guess who he's gonna take he's fury out on."

"Jorge!" Emiliano called impatiently. "We're waiting!"
