Thread: Under the Sea {Paper Mache Banshee and Seraph}

Darrien! Darrien! Darrien! There is new people on land! A little sea horse came swimming as fast as she could to Darrien who was preoccupied with getting a clam out of a tight situation. Darrien tugged and tugged at a clam who had gotten stuck between two wedges of rocks. The sea was just too rough these days for the poor sea creatures. Except for Darrien and a few other merpeople he knew. People like him were rare but they did exist, each leaving in different oceans or seas. It was unlike the little story that came up about Atlantis. Darrien had been there before... all it was was a big group of coral, twisting and turning and forming a very pretty scene that almost looked like a castle. Alot of fish lived there and merpeople would visit it occasionally. It was no home to the merfolk though. Darrien finally managed to wedge the clam out of the rocks and set it down on safer grounds before turning to the sea horse. He grinned. New people? He asked, looking at the waters surface. He was gently being pushed and pulled in the waters as he stayed there thinking about land. He was just as interested in humans as they were in them. To him, they were just like them, expecpt unable to grow fins. Occasionally, if he could he would transform and go on land but he had to stay wet so he didn't bother going on land too much. It took too much time and effort. Darrien was just like every other boy a little over-the-top curious and could be pretty stupid at times. He would always be seen as different though. He had eyes that were so white you could barely see if there was color in them. You could assume he was blind if you never met him. He wasn't though. To match that his skin was a snow white along with his long hair that went to his waist. He never had the nerve to cut it. His tail however from the rest of his body being like snow was a faint blue over the tops of every scale with a pink outline, indicating that under the scales were a pink layer. His tail was also very long, and it kind of looked like a koi tail but only in his color and much, MUCH larger. It trailed at least 6ft behing him starting from his waist. But if he were to transform into a human he'd be a good 6'7. Now, if he were to stay straight enough to measure the length of his body from head to fin he would be almost ten feet. He was very beautiful though if you were to see him. He looked like all the fatasy mermaids in story books, really beautiful and scales would sparkle in the sunlight. It was as if he was ripped out of a book or painting. He was an arctic merman on vacation. He let out a small cheer before swimming up to the surface, his tail moving to the side rather then up and down. Only flaw in him was that he had nips in his ears and a few scars from rough play with sharks. He took a deep breath of the salt air as he looked over to the nearby island. He wondered who had moved in. Not much people would live here. It was just a vacation spot. He smiled and went back underneath the water and swam closer to the island to get a better look. Maybe if people were lucky, he would transform and walk around on earth. If people were to look at him wrong though, he looked like a shark from above. He definately didn't have te personality of one. He was a good boy and hard to hate. He was also very loyal to his friends. Once he got closer to the shore he peeked back above the water at the old house which had a for sale sign on it for a while but it had been taken away so he assumed that was the house they moved in. It was a rather old house and Darrien didn't see why anybody would want to stay there.
