Spindle had searched for decades, for centuries, for most of his long life, for another creature like himself. For another siren who's voice could kill and lure in unsuspecting victims. He never found anyone, not once. Not even his own offspring carried on his genes. He'd gone through plenty of mates trying for so long, had even coupled with a few ancient mers in a desperate hope, but not one yielded his desired results. In conclusion....he was, had to be, was surely the very last siren Cybertron would ever see. It only stung at first. Then the knowledge weighed down on him. Then it ached like an old wound. And then the pain and dismay came, and it all crashed down on him. And Spindle, terror of the sea, destroyer of lives and boats, sea monster of legends and folk songs.....wept. He wailed and keened and sobbed his loss, and when he was too tired to do that... He sang, of his sorrow, his loneliness, of the knowledge that he was the last o his kind, the very last siren. Other mers came close to listen, and an ancient, somewhere far below the rock on which the distraught siren lay, added their voice to his song. When Spindle's throat was sore, and his voice hoarse, he went to the nearest shore and curled up beneath the remains of a shipwrecked fishing boat. There he wallowed in his misery on the wet sand, crying for the loss of an entire culture, an entire species, for the loss of the loveliest voices and the once proud sirens.
