Pressed her body to his body, Laughed; and plunging down Forgot in cruel happiness That even lovers drown.”

A song, but the woman wasn’t singing. Magic was certainly involved, and if Jiminy could just figure out how, he could stop the woman. “Ariel?” He’d known the prince was having trouble, but he didn’t know all the details. “Who’s Ariel?” She was someone the prince wanted to protect, and he could be right about her being in danger. But, perhaps she had a bigger role in this. He seemed to have met Ariel in much the same way as this other woman; perhaps she would know something about this magic. Maybe she could help.

“She's this girl I found on the shore, she'd been ship wrecked. She had no where to go so I gave her --- let her stay here in the castle. She's my friend. She came here days, weeks before this other girl came to see me. The witch, her name is Vanessa...she's the one who's making my head pound all the time. And I feel like I'm there, like I'm there but it's not me. Like I'm watching myself move and talk but it' not me. It happens sometimes but it's getting stronger.”

He was panicking for some reason and he felt as if he was loosing his mind. But he had some control for now. “How are we going to stop her? What if she takes control of me and she makes me hurt Ariel?” Erik's eyes widened, “I'm getting married to Vanessa tomorrow at sunset. What're we supposed to do?”

continued from this.

“And did you know that she was the one, papa? That she was    the one that saved you? Were you the prince that she dreamt of?” 

Of course she knew the story, that there were trials and obstacles in their  way–that they were not a perfect love story. But it was this story, the story of how her parents met that made her feel closer to her mother. Especially  lately when the maids would talk about her coming into womanhood, did her mother become distant with her, as if she was awaiting for something to happen. 

  “How did the song go again? Do you remember, papa?” 

[rescuedbythewater]

“The moment I saw her, no. I was convinced she was someone that would be there for me, a friend. But when I saw her dance. And your mother was the most beautiful dancer in all the realms. I knew that my betrothal would not stand. You see, when I met your mother. She must have gone through a terrible ordeal. When I tried to speak with her and I often tried, she would let out these little croaks and gasps. I was a boy and the fact that she could not speak told me she was not the songstress that saved me. I was so stupid back then. As all boys are. Keep that in mind, dear one.”

Erik held a grin recalling on those long flowing strands that lit up like fire under the sunlight. Ariel was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. But he had been convinced that she was not the one who saved him, and that made her beauty worth nothing more than aesthetics. “There was this slender young woman who sang a song very close to what I heard your mother sing when she saved me.” He smacked his lips, “The song? Let's see....If I were to sing it, then, oh how mu little one will laugh.”

[rescuedbythewater]

"Do you remember me?"

“I’m pretty sure, I do. Yes.” Thenurses had all left his side. Erik had obtained a cut on his hand,that needed just a few stitches. “Your face is familiar but yourname eludes me for some reason.”

A puppet. Jiminy knew what it was to feel like a puppet, like someone was controlling him. Though, he hadn’t been controlled in such a direct way. “If we figure out how she’s affecting you, we can stop it,” Jiminy suggested. “I can spy on her, figure out how she’s controlling you, and we can stop her then.” Stop the magic, and her control over him would disappear. Because Jiminy was almost positive magic was involved. If they could stop the magic, they could stop her.

[rescuedbythewater]

“I don't know how.” He shook his head, “I always hear this humming. I heard a song. There was a song and then I'm always fighting with myself, now. But she doesnt sing. This woman, she was on the shore. I let her into my kingdom to help her just like I did with...” he knew he had to figure something out quick. “If she's doing this to me, then what on earth could she be doing to Ariel...” All his worries about the witch seemed to grow. “If you can't help me stop the sea witch then please, make sure that you help Ariel get out of here... the sea witch is across the hall...near Ariel's room.” He winced. Erik was fighting whatever magic she was using on him but it was taking it's toll.

“Yes, the waves and beings down under speak highly of you King Eric.” She smile as she inclined her head, walking up from the shores onto land, she changed her form to become a beautiful red head, changing whatever was left of her scales to human flesh. “I am like the wind, I’m fairly silent and only am seen when I want to be.” She smiled slightly as she sat down on a rock, lightly brushing some of her long hair behind her ear. “My name is Reyna. A lot of people don’t really like me which is probably why you don’t know my name, but you would most likely know who I am as a being.” She admitted thoughtfully, showing no sort of indignation towards those who disliked her. She knew it was because of her people and Reyna felt rather obligated to show that Sirens were more then just flesh eaters. They, as well as mermaids, could be kind, they just chose not to most of the time. However, Reyna wasn’t like most Sirens and she only ate humans on occasion. It was more of a delicacy to her than an every day meal, and she was full for the time  being.

“I find that when most aren't too keen on an individual, then their name will be spread through every corner of every land. Perhaps then, it is those that dislike you who are not important.” He was not inclined to trust anyone from the waters. His kingdom did keep a truce with the ocean dwellers, since the moment his brother had captured their sea beast. The Sea King was shamed; but so was his own. His father had lost a son, Edrik. And him a brother.

Erik moved through his garden, his pace slow. “The  what brings you to my gardens. Come to take in the sights? I would encourage you to stroll through the water gardens, my wife takes great pride in that piece of land. It is her joy to take our daughter there, to enjoy the small amount of water we do allow in our kingdom. Since we have placed a rather high wall to guard us from the ocean and it's treacheries.”

She lofted a brow. “And how do you propose you extract all this infinite knowledge, exactly? Dead men can’t talk, you know.”

“There are those women who call upon them. And do those ...with the candles and insence. There is always that.” He smacked his lips as he prepaed his answer. “Dead don't men talk. But they make a spectacle of themselves for hours, especially at night when they won't stop random footsteps around my chambers. Believe me, they don't use words but they talk enough.”

Jiminy had become accustomed to people thinking he was part of a dream. After all, you didn’t exactly see a talking cricket every day. “I can’t kill a sea witch. And I don’t really know how you can, either, though I’m sure there’s a way to.” Still, Jiminy tried to avoid bloodshed whenever possible, so even if there was a way to kill her, he wouldn’t have suggested it outright. Sometimes death was unavoidable, but when it wasn’t, it should be avoided. “I’m here to help you come up with another way to defeat her.”

[rescuedbythewater]

A different way other than killing the sea witch. That did not sound fun at all. “What's another way? Am I supposed to talk things out with her? Ask her to stop?” He nearly shouted, his words weren't confrontational they were desperate as he paced back and forth. “She's doing something to me. I know she's doing something. I can't think. I can't eat. Pretty soon, I feel like I won't be me anymore. I feel like I'm just a puppet or close to being one.”

“Um, no sorry. Behind the lizard,” Jiminy explained, flying up higher so the man could see him better. “I’m a cricket.” Which probably would seem just as strange as a lizard. “And I wasn’t sent by your ancestors, but I am here to help.”

Erik furrowed his brows and tilted his head, “So a not lizard...a cricket...” The cricket was right it did seem rather strange that there was a cricket talking and saying that it would help him. Erik remained confused. “Dream. This has to be a dream. Okay, okay. You're here to help. Tell me how you're supposed to kill a sea witch.”
