Carmen didn't even need to see her, she felt her, practically smelled her, because of f Lonely Coast, she and Ruth where connected somehow, but she also felt an enemy presence around her, she swam from the rock she was sitting on to the borders of her home, she saw Ruth, she was swimming towards her home, holding hands with the enemy, she swam towards them, she stretch her hands before her, the water around the merman became thicker, almost like jelly form and he couldn't move, Ruth was shocked
"Move away from him Ruth"
"What is going on?"
"Move away from the enemy"
"He's not our enemy Carmen... Let him go"
"No"
The Jelly around Yeon tightened and he winch, Ruth panicked, she felt a strange pain in her chest, she couldn't stand seeing him hurt
"Let him go Carmen"
"Why are you defending him? He's from the enemy tribe"
"What enemy tribe, none of us here are of the same tribe remember"
"Obviously you don't know, he hasn't told you has he?"
"Told me what?"
"He's tribe are from the Northern part of Lonely Coast, they are Savage and blood thirsty, they attack other tribes, they wipe out Colonies and claim their territory, you can't trust him"
Ruth heard what Carmen was saying but all she cared about was the pain in Yeon eyes
"Let him go!"
"No!!"
Ruth has never seen Carmen this stubborn and determine, Ruth took a deep breath
"He's probably here to spy on us"
"Spy?"
"Ask him Ruth, if all am saying is a lie"
Ruth faced Yeon, he looked her back in the eyes
"She isn't lying, but as I told you, my kind are not accepted here"
"Don't play the victim!!!"
Carmen shouted and the jelly tightened, Ruth heard Yeon bone crack, he groan in pain
"Please I beg of you... Stop hurting him, let him go"
"I can't, it's either I kill him here or I take him prisoner"
The word kill rang in her mind, she rush to Carmen and grab her arm
"That's enough"
She shouted at her, Carmen gasp in shock, she felt a wave of electric shock all over her body, her body heated up and she lost her sight for some seconds, she weakened, Carmen knew this power came from Ruth, Ruth had weakened her and blinded her for these seconds, when she regain her sight, she turned to see if the enemy had escape, he was still there staring at Ruth in shock
"Carmen..... Am so sorry, are you okay?"
Carmen wrapped her arms around her, it took a while to regain herself and her powers
"Am fine... How did you do that? Where did you learn that?"
"I don't know, it just happened"
"Why are you defending him"
Ruth couldn't answer that, even though her head was screaming the answer, her human instincts were over coming her mermaid senses.
"Please don't kill him..."
"I'll take him prisoner"
Carmen said after thinking for a while, she called the other mermen and they came and took hold of Yeon, he smiled at Ruth
"Its Okay, I'm going to be fine"
He said and let them take him away, Ruth felt her inside twist, why did she feel this strongly towards him? She's never felt this for anyone before.
***
Lonely Coast was beautiful, Ruth had told her about its beauty and wonders but she never expected it to be this gorgeous, the cool blue waters, the island far ahead, everything was a wonder, they had been in the middle of nowhere some minutes ago, surrounded by vast waters but now they were on shore, in an island.
"WOW!!! Why haven't we been here here before?"
Lee asked burying his fingers in the sand, the sand was warm
"Because this place has been left undiscovered, until today"
Cleo replied him, suddenly she felt sick, if lonely coast has remained uncovered until now, why had they discovered it and what about the danger Ruth spoke of, they were not suppose to be here and she could feel it.
Dorothy couldn't take her eyes off the sea, her feet were buried under the sand, yet she kept her eyes fixed on the sea they'd just left behind, how did they reach shore so quickly? And why did she want to return back to the boat, she wanted to stay back at the vast sea.
"Come on Dora, let's explore"
Lee dragged her along, he pushed all of them into the Forest
"Lee...."
"What were you doing staring so longingly at the water, hello earth creature, we came here for an adventure didn't we? And that friend of yours, coming to a place like this without you guys, how selfish.. Good thing we found it too"
He said staring at the large coconut trees.
"Let's explore the wonders of Lonely Coast"
