Coral's View

I woke up to the sound of my mother waking me up for school. My beautiful red tail is wrapped around my books...ughh I forgot to do my fishwork. I decide to do it before school begins."CORAL ALICE REEF GET DOWN TO THE KITCHEN TO EAT YOUR SEAWEED..YOU ARE GOING TO BE LATE FOR SCHOOL"!!!

I get startled by how loud my mom yells at me and swim as fast as I can to the kitchen. When I get there I see my baby brother Fin my father, and my little sister Teresa at the table already. "Good morning Coral" says my father "Good morning" I say. "I eat as fast as I can, fix my hair, get my books, and swim to the door when my mom tells me " Coral remember to come home as quickly as you can, the fishstronimers have predicted a horrible storm today". I barley listen to her though because I am busy thinking about how am I going to finish all my fishwork before the first school bell rings."Ok" I say and leave the cave.

I am swimming as fast as I can to get to school, I see many mermen and mermaids already leaving for work or school. As I approach the school I see my best friend Liliana and we swim together in school. I then finish my fishwork and talk to Liliana, "Do want to go on a boat with a couple of my friends today, Its going to be fun and there are going to be cute guys","Sure"I say rolling my eyes and giving her a smirk.

Afterwards the teacher swims in and classes begin. It is boring as usual with the usual fish math, the study of the ocean, and various classes, After what seems like forever the shell bell rings and I wait for Liliana at the fish yard to go on the boat. We find each other and swim to shore with are waterproof bags were we find a place to transform. The transformation is a little painful but as we mermaids get older it is less painful. Liliana then puts on a summer dress and I just put on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt.

We then see a boat with people Liliana seems to recognize. I guess they don't know were mermaids . Liliana then yells "Hey guys, were over here"!! They see us and come to pick us " Hey Lily" says a cute boy with brown hair and blue eyes, "Hey Adam" replies. "This is my friend Coral..the friend I was talking to you guys about". "Oh..ya" says Adam, " Hi" he says, I stutter "H-hi". Liliana was right there are some cute boys here. "Coral meet Jahaira, Chris, Samantha, and Edwin", I wave and they wave back. As we get farther away from the shore I notice it is a beautiful day, it is pretty fun with Liliana and her friends. After a while of joking and introducing ourselves we realize that it is getting dark, I then remember what my mom had told me about the storm and we try to get back to shore ASAP.

The storm has gotten worse there is now thunder and the rip currents have gotten stronger.

I hold onto a pole so I would end fall as we get to shore. All of a sudden I seem to slip and let go of the pole, I fall out of the boat as it turns and hit my head against a rock. I only remember feeling the cold touch of water against my body and then just darkness.
Max' s View

"Max...Max"says my little brother Alex. "You promised me to teach me how to hunt today remember"," Ughh...What time is it" I say. "It's like the afternoon come on please wake up I don't want to help mom with her boring hypnotisem classes" " Fine" I say, "Let me get ready though". "Ok" he says with the biggest grin on his face.

I walk into the bathroom and shower,fix my hair and change clothes. I come out to see him biting a toy that I used to play with when I was a child. Alex looks at me and blushes, he puts the toy aside and turns around in embarrassment, I can't help but laugh at how foolish he looked. "I can see you are warming up" he blushes and looks at the floor" "Alright" I say,"let's go". He follows and in a matter of seconds we are outside.

We walk into the forest were a beach lies ahead "First thing about hunting your prey, do not make any noise". "Ok" he says and counts his finger to make sure he knows that it is rule number one. I laugh silently, "Second rule after you have spotted your prey get close and third rule catch your prey". Alex is still counting his third finger but I am sure he knows what to do. Then all of a sudden we stop, we see a beautiful(and appetizing) white tail dear. "Watch and learn" I mouth. Then in a flash I have caught it and suck it's blood, Mmm tasty I say to myself. Alex then runs over and drinks some "Delicious" he says. We then walk to the beach to see what water creatures we can taste. All of a sudden my heart stops, I see something at the shore, it's long and fish like. "Stay" I say Alex and walk to the creature. I then realize it's a creature that we vampires hate, it's a mermaid.

"Alex can you please go home and wait for me there","Why" he wines. "Just go" I say, "If you do I'll let you have half of my blood for supper", "Ok" he says and runs home. I just stand there staring at her and see that she has an injury at the back of her head..she's beautiful I say to myself...No Max don't think about that. I see that I have no other choice but to have her blood, we have been enemies for centuries..why spare one I say to myself.

As I am about to put my fangs into her neck I look at her. She is so beautiful and then all of a sudden I want to help her instead of ending her life. "Ugh...come on do it" I say to myself but I can't I don't want to. Instead I put my arms around he and carry her to a cave where she can be safe. I run to the cave and put her down. She's waking up...Oh my gosh what should I do. I'll just say I'm human and that I saw her hurt and decided to help. Then she opened her eyes...
