When Caleb awoke, he was lying in the sand on the island he had safely put Seria on earlier. Caleb gazed around and noticed Seria sleeping next to him, facing away from him. "S...Seria...?" Seria moaned and wiggled around like a worm. When Seria turned her head, her face was covered in hair.
Caleb chuckled. "Cute..." Caleb pulled away Seria's hair from her face.Caleb looked at Seria's face. Cuter... Seria moaned, and blinked a few times. Seria sprung up and whacked Caleb's forehead with her's.
"Ow..!" Caleb and Seria said together. They both chuckled. "Sorry..." Seria blushed. Caleb smiled. "It was my fault...kind of..." Caleb scratched the back of his neck.
"What's this?" Seria pulled something out of the sand under her hand. "A necklace?" Seria held it up to Caleb. "Not...possible. You're touching it..." Caleb snatched the necklace out of Seria's hand. "it...?" Seria questioned. "This necklace...is black magic. And it can give me legs..." Caleb smiled.
"What're you waiting for?! Get your legs!" Seria smiled. "Um...My tail would disappear... revealing...certain stuff..." Caleb blushed. Seria froze. "Okay..." She finally said. Seria jumped into the water and floated down a few meters.
Okay...just stay afloat and you'll be fine... "Okay..." Caleb held the necklace by the chain. Then he grabbed the little tail charm and pressed it into his neck.
Caleb began mumbling in a foreign language. Then...all Caleb saw was a bright white light. Then...he saw sky. And Seria. She kept repeating something quietly. Seria? Caleb blinked and sat up slowly. "What happened?" Caleb stared at the necklace clutched in his fist.
Then, Seria grinned brightly. Caleb looked up at Seria. "What?" Caleb stuck his tongue out. "Look at your 'tail'" She pointed to his 'tail'. Caleb looked down. He hand feet! and Legs. But he had some sort of fabric over his hips and...other things.
"Huh?" Caleb looked at Seria. He just noticed that she had ripped her shirt even more to 'cover him up'. "Thank you." Caleb said. Seria smiled.
"No problem!" Seria stood up. "Practice standing..." Seria held her hand up. "First you need actual clothes though...let's go to shore again." Seria said. "But what about my legs...?" Caleb frowned.
"They will probably come back when you are dry. come on. i want to get you some clothes!" Seria pushed Caleb into the water. The fabric went flying into the water. Caleb's head jumped out of the water. "What was that for?!" Caleb smiled. "Forget it. get on." Caleb swam over to the island and Seria jumped onto his back.
Caleb swam just below the water so Seria could breath. But the zapping feeling was harsh, and it was really strong. Seria's breathing became uneven, but Caleb was fine. When Caleb and Seria reached the shore, Seria was sleeping on Caleb's back. Rough night...maybe...
Caleb crawled onto the shore and as soon as his tail was completely out of water, his feet came back. uh oh... Caleb pulled Seria off of his back and laid her softly on the beach. Then he jumped back into the water, growing back his tail. Whew...
When Seria awoke, There were people crowding around her. maybe seven people. Seria sat up. "Are you okay?" "Who are you!?" "What were you doing?" Seria stood up on her feet and pushed the people out of her way. Seria looked back at them, they were just staring at her. "Hm..." Seria began walking around.
When Seria found boy's clothes; it was in someone's backyard. Hanging on strings. "Good enough..." Seria snatched some jeans, sweatpants, and a tank top.
Seria walked back to the beach. The people were gone. good... Seria walked into the water until the water was up to her knees, then she looked around. "Caleb!" She Whisper shouted. "What?" Caleb popped up next to her.
Seria jumped. "Don't do that!" She smacked Caleb's arm, the zap came up their arms. "Here." Seria threw the clothes at Caleb. "What the...?" Caleb held up the pile of clothes. "Just...ARGH. Do I need to dress you!?" Seria snatched Caleb's arm, the zapping still there, and pulled him up to the shore.
"STOP!" Caleb shouted, the end of his tail the only thing in the water. "Fine... get dress though." Seria walked away and sat down facing the opposite direction. Caleb slipped the shirt on. "Easy..." Then he pulled his tail onto the beach, and his feet came back. Caleb tried to put on the pants...but he put them on backwards.
"There..." Caleb smiled as he was sitting down on the beach. Seria peeked over her shoulder. "AH!!!" Seria marched over and pointed to Caleb's pants. "No...no no no no. That's backwards!" Seria shouted. "Okay okay..." Caleb mumbled as he began to take them off. "AH NO NO NO!" Seria turned around and covered her eyes.
Caleb smiled. "Done..." Seria peeked at him again, the pants were on right this time. "Good job!" Seria clapped once. "Now let's practice. come here..." Seria grinned. Caleb stood on his feet. "Easy..." Caleb wobbled. He took a step, then another, but he fell forward into Seria. "Ow...Ow! OW OW!!!" Seria's body felt as if she were being cut in a million pieces. "GET OFF!" Seria shouted as she pushed Caleb off of her.
"Sorry..." Caleb blushed. Seria brushed off her shirt. "It's...fine..." Seria said. "But, why did that hurt? You didn't land on a rock, did you?" Caleb got wide eyed. "No...i think it was that zapping feeling...but it was...worse."
"Yeah...that is how it will feel to touch a human..." Caleb said. "Now i know it hurts badly..." Seria held her arm.
"Let's just go..." Seria said grabbing Caleb's arm and pulling him to his feet. "Come on!" Seria said, practically dragging Caleb along.
Seria looked around. "I can't remember which way my house was..." Seria sighed. "Well...how much do you pay for your rent?" Caleb smiled. "About $250 with expenses. why?" Seria questioned. "So you're in the poor section." Caleb smiled. Seria gave him a weird look. "What? Don't judge me...i studied this town multiple times."
"Okay, then which way to the 'poor part' of town?" Seria smiled. "That way..." Caleb pointed to their right.
Seria looked at all of the houses they passed. then she saw her's. a tiny little two bedroom apartment. It was the only white house on the block. "That one..." Seria pointed to it. "Let's go inside then. i have to sit down." Caleb said.
Caleb stood behind Seria as she search her key chain for the right key. "This one..." Seria held a golden key with a triangle shape on it. Seria clicked the door open and walked in. Caleb hesitated to follow, but he did anyway.
"Don't worry. i live alone." Seria sighed. "Why?" Caleb asked as he closed the front door behind him. "Well...my mother died when i was born. And my dad is in the army so he only comes home once every two years, usually." Seria frowned.
Seria walked into the kitchen. Caleb followed. "Want anything to eat?" Seria smiled as she opened a cupboard. "I...don't know. I have never had food from here before." Caleb grinned. "Oh right. The only thing you eat is seaweed!" Seria and Caleb chuckled. "Nah! I don't really eat anything." Caleb shrugged. "Well you have not lived 'till you've tried my Mac 'n Cheese!!" Seria smiled as she took out a yellow box of Mac 'n Cheese. "Could i help you?" Caleb walked over to Seria.
Seria gazed at Caleb. "Uh~" Seria froze. Caleb poked Seria in the forehead. The feeling was still there. "Oi! Quit gazing off into space. Can i help you cook?" Caleb smiled.
"S...S...Sure..." Seria stuttered. Caleb took the box from Seria. "Great...!" Caleb began to read the box. Seria stared at her empty hand. "C...Caleb?" Seria looked up to Caleb. "Ye~ah?" Caleb continued to read. "How old are you?" Seria grabbed Caleb's attention.
"Uh~...almost seventeen. Why?" Caleb raised an eyebrow. "No...reason..." Seria smiled slightly. "Just asking. Let's cook." Seria snatched the box and peeled the top off. Caleb scoffed and leaned on the counter. His ember hair flowed around.
Seria took a pot out of the dish drainer and set it on the stove eye. then she poured water into it, and turned on the heat. "Now...we wait..." Seria smiled. "What do you wanna do?" Caleb frowned. "I don't DO anything, really. i just stare at the pot and wait." Seria giggled nervously. "Well...i know something we could do..." Caleb smiled. "Wha~t?" Seria raised her eyebrows. "Talk. Talking always speeds up time!" Caleb snapped his fingers.
"O~kay. Then we can talk...about what, though?" Seria shrugged. "How about your family. Do you have any other siblings?" Caleb asked. "No...i did." Seria poured the mac 'n cheese into the pot and threw away the box. "Hand me that white spoon?" Seria pointed to a spoon in the strainer. "Really? what happened?" Caleb asked as he grabbed the spoon and handed it to Seria. "Well...i had a brother. an older brother." Seria stirred the mac 'n cheese.
"He died last year. Before i did. He was almost 18. He got in a car wreck with my drunk stepfather. he crashed into a telephone pole. My brother died, but John, my stepfather, suffered a concussion. That's all." Seria sighed. "One more question," Caleb said. "What was his name?" Caleb asked. "Irang." Seria smiled. "He was so nice to me after my mother left me. And then John left me all alone when he was supposed to be hospitalized for three and a half months. i am all alone." Seria sniffled. Caleb sighed.
"You're not alone anymore, remember what i told you? we can't part..." Caleb rested his head in his hands. Seria stared at him. Seria pulled the mac 'n cheese off of the stove and hovered it over the strainer in the sink. She poured all of it into the strainer. Then she switched the pot with the strainer. she poured all of the mac 'n cheese into the pot again and put it back on the eye. Seria grabbed the cheese packet next to Caleb's arm and poured it into the pot. Then she mixed it up and put a serving on a plate. Then another serving on a different plate.
"Let's eat..." Said Seria as Caleb took the plate and followed Seria to the table.
