*No one's POV*

Once upon a there was a kingdom but not just any kingdom, a kingdom under the sea that was run by a race of fish hybrids. They were all ruled over by King Finnball who had been protecting the kingdom for over a hundred years. As much as he loved the sea kingdom he loved his children much more. You see he had six daughters and one son. Netty, Amy, Rosie, Sqaishey, Mousie, Polly and Stampy, Netty was his oldest child she was very calm most of the time and very mature. Amy was the second oldest and she could always be found in the palace garden tending to her favorite undersea flowers. While Rosie was mostly the same as Amy always in the garden but she also loved to play in the coldest depths of the palace. Sqaishey loved to spook the palace staff and groom her feather like fins on her tale. Mousie was a spunky mermaid though she had her girly tendencies she wasn't afraid of speaking her mind. Polly was a mermaid who was mute from birth so she had to use sign language though she was a very loving person. And then there was the youngest sibling Stampy, Stampy was a very sweet and hyperactive young lad but there was something exquisitely rare about him.  He was a Neko Siren hybrid, Stampy was very different from his sisters he never really wanted to stay in the palace he always wanted to explore to ocean's many wonders. But what he found most interesting of all was the humans and their way of life. Stampy often got into a little trouble by turning up missing only to be hanging out in an abandoned shipwreck that crashed into an underground sea cave that he made his hideout that only his best friends Lee and Squid  knew about. Lee was a spiny dogfish but he was a lot bigger than the average spiny dogfish so he would call him a bear fish and Squid was a caribbean reef squid that liked to follow Stampy wherever he goes trying to keep him safe. Stampy's father Finnball decided to have his royal adviser/assistant william the robber crab or most commonly known as the coconut crab. Watch over Stampy and keep him out of harm's way and to keep track of him. But soon Stampy's world view would be changed forever.

*King Finnball's POV*

"Thank you all for coming to the party for today we celebrate our a hundred and thirty fifth year of being hidden from the humans sense I have been crowned king after my father Poseidon!" I declared to my subjects as I held my trident high in the air for all to see "Now the royal court proudly presents your entertainment, the royal siblings!" William announced to the crowd and stepped away from the stage so my children could swim to their places.I sat down on my throne and watched my children begin their song "Ah~ we are the six daughters of Finnball, the great king who raised us well~" my daughters sung together as they twirled around  "today's the day we celebrate and say hooray,  let us remember this day of prosperity~" They sang in unison and held hands. "And now our favorite little brother has come to sing to you, It's our little brothers musical debut, To sing a song that William wrote, his voice is like a bell~." they sang as a shell covered in sea flowers rose from the ground and began to slowly open "He's our brother St-am-py!!" They sang and gestured to the shell finally revealing......Nothing. Everyone gasped in shock seeing the prince was nowhere in sight "WILLIAM!!! Where is Stampy?!" I growled out angrily "H-He was here e-earlier..." William stuttered and clicked his claws together in a nervous motion "WELL THEN GO FIND HIM!!" I yelled and watched him scuttle away in a hurry. I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose "what am I going to do with that boy...."

*Stampy's POV*

Today was the big party...well we have a party every year to celebrate being safe and stuff but this was the first time I have ever sung for one of the parties. My sisters performed every year for the last few years. I know it sounds like a dream to perform at the royal celebration but I didn't want to, I was very nervous and didn't really like being noticed by other people in such a way. So I waited in the bottom of the stage on the clam that was waiting to be hoisted up with William until he left to do the announcement and conduct the band. Once he was gone I swam out of the palace and to my hideaway shipwreck where Lee and Squid were waiting for me. I entered through the side of the broken ship where there was a huge hole. As I enter I can't help but giggle when I see Lee and Squid fighting like angry brothers chasing each other around the ship. "Lee, Squid come on stop fighting..." I said as I put my hands on my hips where my skin transitioned into the scales of my tail. When they didn't stop I smirked and turned around folding my arms across my chest "Oh if your too busy fighting I guess I can just find two other fish to give these coral cakes too" I said in a fake disappointed voice. There faces immediately whirled toward me and they stopped fighting. I giggled and tossed the coral cakes into the air and watched them float down until they were gobbled up by my two undersea comrades.
