Malevolent Mermaid

Chapter 2; Power Eruption!

"Here they are!" Pearl, said it in happiness, as she finally found all the bottles with letters inside Ianthe had written.
After weeks of searching she finally found them and wanted to share them with her and make up for her mistake. Or at least the mistake she thought she did.
Sitting there, she was wondering, why Ianthe got mad at her opening the letters, what was the thing that disappointed her that much? Why were they so important to her? Was she trying to communicate with someone? All of that, what was it about?
She starts swimming around glittery parts of the water, meaning this is where Ianthe had passed by, hoping this would make it easier for her to find her.
While swimming she makes questions in her head she will never know the answer to, and that only Ianthe would be able to answer her, that, if she made things right between them!
And she finds her; well, her tail.
Sitting inside of a cave, her long beautiful tail was still outside, but not moving. This concerned Pearl, knowing Ianthe had this undeniable energy.
When she gets close, she gets on top of the cave, and suddenly lets her head down in speed yelling out "Hello!"
Ianthe gets scared, really scared, Again!
"Will you stop doing this?"
Pearl starts laughing and gets inside of the cave "Where have you been? I have been looking for you everywhere!" she hugs her.
"Get off of me. I do not like showing affection!"
Pearl lets go and has a big smile on her face!
"You were looking for me?" She says surprised, this entire time she was judging that Pearl was running away.
"Yes. I have something important to show you. And something important to tell you."
"What is it?"
"Come and find out yourself!"
They both start swimming, Pearl leading the way and taking her to the bottles all in happiness and excitement.
"You are not tricking me into something bad, are you?"
"Oh Ianthe, do i look like that kind of a person?"
"Yes?"
"You have read me wrong then!"
"I have read you not true."
"What is the difference?"
"My statement was said more politely."
"Alright alright."
The rest was very silent, with just a few conversations, reaching their destination tired Ianthe asks;
"Are we there yet?"
"Almost."
"You said this five times already."
"Then stop asking me every two minutes!"
"Last time i asked you was five minutes ago correct yourself!"
They get even closer to the cave where Pearl lives.
"Stop ignoring me! Why are you ignoring me? SAY SOMETHING! DO NOT IGNORE ME!"
"IANTHE! Be quiet!"
"Alright sorry!"
They stop in front of a big shiny cave
"Wow, it is beautiful!"
"That is my house" she says entering inside.
"Why am i not surprised?"
"Follow me!"
They enter a room, and Pearl drags a wooden chest smiling.
She opens it, and asks Ianthe to get closer.
Ianthe does not know what to feel about this now; happiness or shock?
"You- you have been saving them?"
"Totally! I told you i loved them!"
"Why you didn't you tell me from the beginning?" She says with her disappointed face back again.
"I did, but you weren't listening to me, your head was who knows where"
She feels sad, the imaginary scene of her banging Pearls head comes up to her mind, she could have listened to her, and not be this angry now.
"Just like right now. You are gone again!"
"I am so sorry Pearl!" She hugs her tightly
"For what? I am at fault here!"
"No, i judged you too fast, i thought of you so badly, i cannot believe myself."
"And you have every right to, clearly they are very important to you!"
"I don't even know anymore!"
"Who is the one you are talking about in your letters Ianthe? Who is 'D'? Why you had to create all of these conversations with him?"
"Pearl" tears start rolling down her eyes.
"Ianthe you can tell me! Is he still hurting you?"
She has this scared look on her face, making it easy for Pearl to pick up she felt scared and threatened! She wanted to help her, she felt bad! Those things written on the letters were terrifying, horrific.
She thought they just came out of Ianthe's imagination and that she was this amazing writer, now she knows they were real, and why she behaved like that!
"I know the D you are talking about is still alive. You have all the facts you need to know that, maybe you could just be right, want to search for him?"
"I found him..." she says, more tears attacking her face.
"No...!"
She loses total control of her tears. Making her a crying mess, a total failed emotional mess.
"Listen Ianthe, we were not set up to a good start, and maybe you do not trust me! But now I understand the reason behind your anger, behind your uncontrollable behavior, and, i am here for you! Let us collide our powers, he will not be able to do anything to you!"
"He is dangerous Pearl."
"And so are we.! Let's join forces, build each other up, and keep us staying high!"
