The Siren Song

Chapter 2: Allies

    In the beginning I didn't know much about what to do. I swam for hours trying to figure out where to go. It was dark and sketchy. Almost impossible to see anything if you weren't a siren. It was nearly silent along from the waves crashing overhead.

    For now I felt safe; like nothing in this world could hurt me. I began to drift off into a sleep like no other. I had to find somewhere to lay down before I did so. *Boom* "What was that." I started to feel as if the ocean was spinning until *bang* I hit the floor.

      ........I woke up in a strange place. Surrounded by dead jelly fish and magical potions. It also smelled a little funny. "Glad to see your awake," he said, "I was beginning to worry I killed you."
    "I'm fine. I must ask though.....where am I?" I said
"Why only the best place known to man," he said with enthusiasm, "You see this." He says as he points at the potions. "These will help us become strong... You see you were chosen for a reason. What that reason is I haven't quite figured out yet. When I do, we will be ready for anything!!" He exclaimed. "I want to figure that out myself," I said. "I don't understand why I'm here in the first place."
       He walked towards me slowly: "Maybe we can figure that out together." He smiled brightly. I smile that sent chills down me but I ignored it. "Why don't you stay here for a while. I'm sure it'll feel nice to have a handsome face to look at. One you can trust," he suggested.
       I got the urge to run but he seemed nice enough. "Okay,I'll stay. On one condition though." I said, "you help me figure out my name. And you CANNOT touch me." He grinned widely, "deal!" I mean what's the harm of staying here one day or night. Was he the one that made me what I am though? Was seeing him for the first time the best or worst thing to happen for me?
