Magical Mermaids

Magical Mermaids

The magical mermaids that powers that everyone in the sea wanted for themselves

Under the sea lived a family of magical mermaids that had special powers. Their powers allowed them to draw beautiful pictures and bring them to life. This made their home one of the most beautiful homes under the sea.

News of their powers traveled far and wide making the pirates greedy for their power. The pirates had been hunting mermaids for years but none of them had successfully caught a mermaid from this family. Among the pirates, was a boy determined to catch one of the mermaids and steal its power. He knew the way to succeed was to practice breathing underwater over long periods of time. With his determination, he practiced so hard, that he got gills.

He then hatched a plan to live among the mermaids disguised as one of them. To do this, he bought a mermaid costume and went looking for the mermaid’s cave. He managed to sneak into their home and started living among them. One night while the mermaids were sleeping, he grabbed one of them in the hope of kidnapping her. His plan was to take the magical mermaid back to the pirates to harness her powers.

This was not his lucky day as the mermaid screamed so loudly that the other mermaids came to see what was happening. The mermaids were shocked to find that there was a stranger among them. Being the first time they saw a boy, they were amazed at him.

They thought instead of punishing him by keeping him to live with him as one of them. He lived with them for so long that he grew close to them and soon, he developed the same powers that the mermaids had.

Meanwhile, the pirates were planning a rescue. When they came to save their friend, they noticed that he had become just like one of the mermaids. Happy, the Pirates took him along with them in the hope that he would draw for them and become powerful.

Unknown to the pirates and the boy, anytime the powers were used for evil, it would remove a limb from the mermaid using their powers. Anytime the pirates asked the boy to draw something for evil or selfish gain, his fingers and toes would vanish, and this made him scream in pain.

Alerted by the boy’s screams, the mermaids rushed to the boy’s rescue.

To fight the pirates, they sang loud, powerful songs that made the pirates’ ears hurt. The pirates couldn’t stand the noise and ran away. The mermaids saved the boy and took him back to their magical home.

From then on, the boy lived happily with the mermaids as one of them. He even became their king and  loved his new life under the sea.

Moral: Anywhere can be home. Sometimes, a new place can feel just like home.
