P.o.V the Siren

I'm was just singing. Singing as normal when I began to feel as if I was being watched. But I continued with my song. Just as I was about to enter my 'Sirenetic State', I heard the bushes rustle. What was that?! I stop singing and turn my head to the bushes while spreading my fins apart in case escape was needed.

"I'm sorry if I spooked you, I didn't mean too."

What?

"I really didn't mean too. I was just fascinated." As they said this, a young girl with h/l, h/c flowing to the left in the slight breeze appeared from the bushes.

"You were... fascinated... by me?" I managed to squeeze out through my surprize.

"Ahhhh, yeah. I could tell the song I was hearing was a sirens song but... I wondered why I wasn't falling under your spell. So, I followed the sound of your song to here..."

"You didn't fall under my spell?!?!" I half asked, half exclaimed at this. "No one has been immune to my song..."

"Well I am for some reason- "she was cut short by some distant noise.

"What's wrong?" I asked curiously. A face a dread creeped onto her face.

"Swim..." she said.

"What do you- "

"Quickly!!!Swim away!!" She cut me off with fear and worry in her voice. Then in the distance I hear them.

"The siren has been rumoured here." My blood ran cold. Hunters. I turn and head to the deepest part of the pool to hide. If I ran down stream, they would see me. My tail, fins and scales all begin to change to darker shades of purple as a reaction to my fear.

I watch the young male siren swim into the depths just in time. "Here the lake where the beast has been spotted- Y/n?! What are you doing here?!" Jack the head huntsman of the villages in the area, asked looking bewildered.

"I'm collecting berries and herbs for my potions Jack, what's the problem?" I replied.

"The siren is the problem. That beast is scaring the life out of the villagers." He replied gruffly avoiding eye contact with me.

"He is not a beast; he is a living creature that has a home here. Don't just kill him for living. Has he done anything? NO!! no one is missing or dead, everyone just fears sirens cause an old tail. If you listen to the elders, they don't fear him. Why? Cause there has been sirens in this area for hundreds of thousands of years. Don't be stupid and break the silent truce between the locals and the villagers." I replied slightly annoyed at Jack. This man has the balls to call an innocent creature a beast. That's when I realised what I said. "Jack, I'm not- "

"I've heard enough, Y/n. You will be arrested for your crimes. The counsel may have pardoned you being a witch, but they will not pardon you for working with an enemy of the villages." Jack interrupted me pointing his crossbow at me.

"I'm not working with him Jack, I'm simply- "I tried to defend myself only to be met with more crossbows and the sound of several clicks signalling that all it would take was a simple pull of the trigger and I'd be dead. I began backing away slowly.

"Don't fight this Y/n, make this easier for yourself." Jack then began on a lecture explaining something, but I block it out thinking about how to escape. Despite what he is saying, if I go in the same thing that happened to my mother will happen to me. Shit! I'm at the edge. I have no choice now... Just a small... simple spell... is all...

Potens Ventis.

P.o.V Shinso

I'm staying as still as I can when the pressure abovechanged rapidly. Curiosity got the better of me and I began to surface a bit only to thegirl from before, surrounded by a powerful ball of air and streams of powerfulwinds pushing the hunters away. I watch in awe. Splash. What was that? Ilook to my left and see a crossbow's arrow in the water. I dive under thesurface for cover. Several splashes later I find myself surfacing again. Click,Click, Click... Click, Click, Click... What was that? All I know the windstops. I look to the mystery girl only to see her fall into the water. Click,Click, Click. They're going to fire again!? I dive back down for cover. WhenI'm deep enough I look back to see the girls body floating with blood beginningto leak eerily into the water...
