Beautifully Gone

Regina Erue Hederam was nothing but a girl with a peculiar name, (one that did not go unnoticed by middle school bullies) well other than the fact that she was a mermaid. She was born in the blue of the Ocean and raised on land as every mermaid was, other than the royal family, of course. All her life she'd been waiting for her sixteen and half birthday, the day she got her tail. Her mother always told her to be careful what she wished for, and that day isn't the only thing she wished.
