Pirate and the Merhog

Stolen

(Sonic's POV)

I walked at the beach near the shore with bare feet. One of the best childhood memories of the beach where my dad takes me there to learn how to be a pirate. But I was a free-spirited kid to choose my own interests on land.

One time I saw a struggling baby sea turtle trying to reach to the water but was too scared of seagulls going after it. And I helped the baby by guarding him from predators and he made it to the water.

Another time was a struggling seagull whose wing was stuck between the shore rocks. But I managed to free it without hurting it. I even fed it for a period until it was fully recovered and flew away.

And the other time that a shark couldn't move to the water. Before it could suffocate, I brought it to deeper water letting it out.

My father knew that I loved the ocean and as I got older and understood that pirates sail the seas, I took my father's place as captain of Blue Wind. Though retirement does not bother him much now. Now I have to wait see my time as captain coming to an end.

It's nearly sunset and I know Amy will come tonight at the docks, "Alright, it's time to go" I said to myself.

I headed to the docks making sure no one was around there, "Okay just a few minutes left. No Fiona in sight"

While waiting I looked at the moon, "I can't get enough of seeing your pretty face, warm hugs and giggles" I said to myself.

I think I fell in love with an angel fish. But....she's a princess and I'm not royalty. Royalty in her world probably doesn't let royalties fall in love with non-royalties.

Then I saw movements in the water, it was her, "Hello there Sonic" Amy poked out of the water.

"Hello angel fish" I said.

"Hey, I haven't come up with a nickname for you Sonic" Amy said.

"Oh yeah. What should that be?" I wondered.

"What does your family call you?" Amy asked.

"My family calls me the blue devil or blue blur. But at high school after my graduation, girls would often call me Sonikku. Because they think I got the handsome looks and they know that I'm the descendant of Papa Ronic. I wanted someone caring and sweet to call me Sonikku" I said.

"Okay. Sonikku it is" Amy giggled.

I jumped in the water to join her, "Sometimes your beauty drives me crazy, angel fish. If my grandpa and your father were here, they would be wondering what's happening to us" I teased her.

"Well who knows, maybe they think we're silly kids playing?" Amy joked.

"Heh, it's like we are breaking the rules. Land and sea together, legs and fins" I held her hands.

"Yeah, together at last" Amy said.

"The only ones to see each other from different worlds" I said.

"So what do you wanna do now?" Amy asked me.

"We could go for a swim in the reef" I suggested.

I wished to be a merhog again and swam with her to the coral reef. Right now it was glowing in the reef at night. I never seen it do that at night. Do they or is it the mermaid ability?

"Beautiful as usual Sonikku?" Amy asked me.

"Breath taking. Well, gill taking actually when breathing underwater" I said.

"Oh yeah, we merpeople have both lungs and gills" Amy said.

We swam up to the ship wreck nearby and then above a blue whale.
