Sienna höll krampaktigt i den lilla flaskan. Kristallflaskan var fylld med en grön vätska, och knogarna som omslöt den var vita av ansträngning. Flaskan hade legat gömd bakom en sten i flera dagar, de dagar det hade tagit Sienna att förbereda sig. Drycken var nämligen nyckeln för att Sienna skulle få tag på blomman som skulle rädda hennes far och de andra sjöjungfrur som hade blivit drabbade av sjukdomen som gjorde att deras liv långsamt rann ur dem.

Sienna hade hört talas om drycken på ryktesvägen. Den skulle finnas hos en häxa i det djupaste vatten. Det hade tagit Sienna en och en halv dag att hitta henne, och väl där hade drycken mycket väl existerat på riktigt. Häxan hade dock berättat om konsekvenserna av att dricka den; Sienna skulle bli människa så länge solen var uppe, men när solen gick ner blev hon en sjöjungfru igen fram tills solen gick upp igen. Så skulle det fortsätta fram tills Sienna hade utfört vad hon skulle göra; hitta blomman och få alla de sjuka friska igen. Blomman fanns bara på land, och det var knappt att Sienna visste hur den såg ut. Men det var hennes enda chans.

Den röda fiskstjärten rörde sig fram och tillbaka i vattnet, och förde den svarthåriga kvinnan uppåt, mot ytan. Sienna kände nervositeten öka och nå sin topp när hennes huvud bröt vattenytan. Hon befann sig bakom några klippor. Hon simmade längre fram tills det var väldigt grunt och därmed svårt att simma. Hon svalde och tittade på flaskan i handen.
”Nu gäller det” sa hon till sig själv och satte den lilla flaskan mot munnen. Hon tippade över den och den gröna drycken var ovanligt söt. Sienna svalde och tittade ner på sig själv. Hon kände besvikelsen komma krypandes när en annan känsla tog över. En varm känsla spred sig från stjärtfenan och uppåt. Sienna föll bakåt och kunde för ett par sekunder inte se någonting, det var som om hon var omringad av ett skimrande ljus.

När hon äntligen kunde se igen kände hon hur munnen gapade. Hennes röda fiskstjärt fanns inte mer, istället var det två långa människoben. Hon var klädd i en röd klänning, som dock var blöt som hela hon var eftersom hon fortfarande var i vattnet. Hon försökte ställa sig upp, men upptäckte till sin förfäran att det inte gick. Benen darrade och kunde inte hålla uppe henne, så hon föll till marken. Hon tog ett djupt andetag och försökte en gång till med hjälp av att hålla sig i klippan. Det vinglade fortfarande, men hon stod upp i alla fall. Hon släppte klippan och försökte ta ett par steg mot stranden. Hon lyckades ta fyra mycket vingliga steg innan benen vek sig under henne. Sienna föll framåt och kände hur hon landade i sanden som var mjuk och raspig på samma gång. Hon kände det mellan fingrarna och försökte dra sig framåt, men hon var nästan helt slut av ansträngningen hon precis hade gått igenom. Hon kände hur tårarna började bränna bakom ögonlocken. Såhär skulle det ju inte ha blivit.

Förlåt

The castle stands on a cliff, overlooking the vast ocean. The rulers here are known and capable seafarers , the Lord himself had spent a great deal of his life hunting creatures of legend and myth. His son had joined a hunt once, it was not as fun as the boy had hoped but that had been years ago, the little Lord is now a man, tall and strong, he spends most of his time practicing swordfighting and reading, when he's able.

Jacen, the Lords son has broken away from his friends for some much needed solitude, a stroll towards the beach and white limestone cliffs seems like a excellent idea. As the day is oddly warm he is only spoting a thin, dark blue linen tunic and some undyed breeches, too expensive and fine clothes were not a ideal for a walk on the beach. His blonde hair is tied back to keep the thick hair from his neck and face.

He swears to hear something odd behind the large curve in the cliffs but it must just be the waves and heat that are getting to him. As he continues his usual walk, he spots something in the sand ahead of him. 'A woman?' his steps are quick and sure through the sand as he kneels down beside the woman. "Are you alright? can you hear me?" he asks, a worried tone sets in his voice.

Sienna had managed to land face down, and felt the sand stick to her arm, legs and face. Her black hair was wet and tangled, not smooth as silk like it was in the water. Was this how it supposed to feel like being a human? Sienna certainly didn’t hope so. She turned her head and lied on her side, too scared to try and stand up again. How would she be able to pose as a normal human being if she couldn’t walk? Were there humans unable to walk? Sienna didn’t know. Her knowledge of humans was very limited, even though she had tried to gain as much knowledge as possible before leaving for her little mission. They even spoke an entirely different language than mermaids, and Sienna sure hoped that she had gotten the language with the potion. Appearance wise, mermaids and humans looked very much alike, besides from the fish tail. Some mermaids had golden eyes, which humans apparently didn’t. But other from that, they looked the same. Sienna had never seen a human before, not even from far. She had gone out on this mission, risking her and her people’s existence, and she had no idea how the threat even behaved. But she did have a limited time, and she needed to find the flower quickly.

Sienna looked at the cliffs a few metres from her golden eyes. She had to try again, but there was nothing around her that could help her stand up. As she lifter her head, she felt some of the sand fall off of it, and down to the rest of the sand on the beach. She was about to try and stand again when she heard something on her other side. She turned her head and felt how her skin got goose bumps even though the sun’s rays were all over her body. In front of her, and not very far away from her, stood a human. A male human from what Sienna could see. He asked her something, and Sienna was able to understand him.
“I-I-I” she sputtered, surprised to hear this new language spoken from her mouth. Her body was tense, as if she couldn’t decide whether to fight or flight. Apparently, her brain chose the latter. Using her arms, she scuffed away from the human. She could hear her beating heart in her ears, and feel the blood rush in her veins. This was not the way she had imagined the first meeting with a human. But then again, the stories she had heard since she was young should make her terrified of them.
“I-I’m no-“ she didn’t know why she kept trying to speak. Sienna bent her legs and tried to get up. It went miraculously good, and she backed from him. Unfortunately, that didn’t go as miraculously as the standing up part. Her legs were asking and got entangled in each other, resulting in her falling down in the sand once again. Even though the sand was quite soft, Sienna fell hard and grimaced in pain.

The stories told, or at least Jacens nan had told him that mermaids ate people, if they could get ahold of the poor soul, that is, drag the man under and make short of him. They were all stories made up to frighten children but his father had told him of occasions where he had seen some mermaids wear bones as armor, he wasn't certain if that was true or not. They even spoke a strange language, not of this earth, no sane man could try and understand a word of it.

Jacen takes a step closer to the girl, ensuing that he will not harm her, his arms are up in a typical passive way, showing that he bears no ill intentions. "Did someone harm you?" it takes a moment for him to notice that the girl is naked as he watches her stumble and fall back down onto the soft sand. He keeps a distance but tries to examine her for wounds, he finds none from the first glance. In a quick movement he removes his tunic and hands her it. "You must be cold, put it on" he tries to keep his voice kind as to not scare her anymore. Jacen would be a fool if he didn't find her attractive, with her dark hair and eyes that seems to shine with a golden hue with a pale and smooth skin, he is only a man after all. He kneels down beside the girl, asking again "Are you hurt?" he's still holding the blue tunic in his hands , hoping the girl will have the strength to put it on by herself. "If you're ill, it would be best that I take you to the castle, we have good men there that could aid you" he speaks slowly , hoping the girl will understand as whatever shock she is experiencing settles.

The human started to…. Undress. Sienna didn’t realize what was happening until he held out his clothes to her. Of course, humans didn’t walk around naked as she did. She swallowed and accepted the piece of fabric, putting it in front of her to cover herself. The human kept talking, and the way he did made Sienna feel less scared. He hadn’t attacked her, or killed her, he seemed to worry about her. She shook her head as an answer to the question if she was hurt. She wasn’t hurt, not in the sense of having a wound. She looked at him, still hearing her heart in her ears. Even though he seemed nice, everything she had heard was not going to go away just because he sounded nice. He could still be as violent and horrible as Sienna had heard humans were.

She tried to stand up yet again, and this time she stood. Sure, she swayed a little, but at least she was now standing up. She clutched the piece of fabric close to her front to cover herself. The potion hadn’t provided her with clothes, which apparently was something humans used. Sienna wondered how it would look like, her walking into the town without something to wear. She briefly looked at the human. He didn’t have sharp fangs or red eyes like in the stories, but he could deceiving her.
“I-I” she stammered, trying to figure out what to say. He expected an answer, but she had no idea what to say.
“I c-can’t – use them” she said, gesticulating towards her legs. They were called legs, right?
“My legs” she added, hoping that was the right terminology. The humans had so many things on shore that mermaids didn’t. Those big things they travelled with on water were the worst, because it always resulted in pointy things killing things under the surface. Sienna looked out over the ocean. She had been a human for less than fifteen minutes, and she aleady missed her fin.

A small smile crosses Jacesn lips as he sees how she is holding the tunic. "It would help if you put it over your head" he tried to make her feel at ease, the girl clearly wasn't some Highborn lady , or if she was , she must be very unlucky indeed. His green eyes examine her , she is very much naked but seems to be unharmed, luckily. He doesn't understand how the girl ended up here, there was no shipwreck or other people that washed ashore , she didn't seem to be a Selkie as they can have a certain walk as they remove their seal skin and become human. Maybe she truly just had some bad or good luck , he doesn't know yet.

"I'll help you but it would make it easier if you put that on properly, please" He asked nicely , what else could he do? the girl was frightened and weak, he couldn't just leave her. Jacen holds out his arm for her. "Take my arm and I'll help you to the castle" hoping that she understands that he harbors no ill will towards her. "I'm Jacen" he finally thinks to introduce himself, the small smile is there. "what's your name?" he wondered if the poor girl even remembered her name, he hoped so.

Put it over her head. How would it help her if she put the piece of cloth over her head? Sienna lifted the blue fabric and held it in front of her. She looked at the human, and remembered how he had taken it off. She put her head through the hole, and with a bit of struggling she got it on her. She understood now what he had meant with over her head, he hadn’t meant it literally. At least now she was covered. Sienna looked at the humans arm as he offered it to her. If she was to pass for a human, she had to interact with them, and not be so frightened. But it was so intimidating. She swallowed, and took his arm. With that support, she could stand steadier. She tried to take a careful step, and it seemed to go well. She met the human’s green eyes as he introduced himself.
“I’m – I’m Sienna” she said, smiling. It seemed like the proper thing to do, at least since the human, who apparently was called Jacen, did so.
“I appreciate your help, Jacen” she continued, taking another step. This time she didn’t fall, thanks to the support Jacen’s arm gave her. Sienna wondered if she would need support every time she walked. She prayed that wouldn’t be the case, how would she ever find the flower she was looking for if she couldn’t walk by herself?
