~Next morning~

My eyes fluttered open but my vision was blurred due to the sunlight and it dawned on my that Lestat was probably fast asleep in his coffin. Now that I think about it, Lestat and I never slept in his coffin together as weird as that sounds but maybe we just aren't ready. I don't know why that sounded weirder than I thought it would but my mind didn't stay on that topic very long because the sound of my stomach rumbling and begging for food filled the room.

I got up, put my robe on, then went downstairs and made my way to the kitchen as I began to prepare my food. A sigh escaped my lips as I realized how lonely this morning was gonna be while Lestat slept but might as well watch the house while I'm up. After my breakfast sandwhich that contained eggs and bacon was ready, I wasted no tome ripping into it like it would be the last meal of my life but for some odd reason it made my stomach turn in disgust.

Despite the delicious smell, it made me sick to my stomach and in no more than 3 minutes of finishing the food, it came back up all at once but luckily I made it to the nearby bathroom and to the toilet in time. I brush my teeth to get the nasty taste out my mouth, I had eaten this breakfast sandwhich before so why in the hell is my body rejecting it now?

Once the food was all out of my system I started craving seafood, I had allergies to seafood when I was younger but now it sounded like heaven. I thought about grabbing some money but then remembered that I'm a creature of the deep which means I can save money.

I go outside to the beach and looked around to make sure that nobody was around then go into the ocean and go deep down then feel myself begin to transform. An inhuman scream surged from me as I rip my clothes and robe from my body, it took alot of strength to transform because like any other shapeshifter our bones snap and reform themselves.

My transformation completed soon after and I swim off to look for food, I swim a bit deeper because it didn't take me long to learn that our people are suppose to stay away from the surface to avoid exposure to humans. While swimming, a flock of fish caught my eye as my tail picked up speed. Once the fish was in my grasp, I dig my claws into its side then devour it.

An inhuman hiss filled my ears and I turned around then saw one of my people, she was from my pack or tribe whatever you call it but it gave me comfort knowing that she wouldn't try to attack me. Swimming closer to her we exchanged a few words and I learned her name was Mel and that she was 150 years old but still looked like she was at least 20. We lived a very long time and we have slow aging but we can still die from simple but fatal injuries like a gunshot to the head.

Mel and I swam 2,600 feet below and saw one of those creepy looking fish with long sharp teeth and slithery body and those light thingy that hang from the top of its head on some type of wire or whatever the hell that thing is called. I wondered if it was good eating so, I grabbed it and ripped its head from its body but of course it tried fighting back by squirming and snapping at me but that didn't phase me much.

~Hours Later~

Mel and I eat a few of those things and to be honest they didn't taste bad at all, more better than other fish actually. We made our way back to the surface and continued our conversation while we were at it, Mel was a cool mer-person to chill with. "Wait, so you mean to tell me that you're in love with a vampire? And your some type of witch/mermaid hybrid now because of one of us saving you? And your family, what about them?" She asked while tilting her head out of curiosity "they died, long ago..murder" her hand made its way onto my shoulder to comfort me "I'm sorry to hear that but at least you got something out of it" those words made my eyebrows foward now in my own curiosity "and what is that?"

"New life~"
