The Lost Fruits

Chapter 57 - Red-headed Mermaid

"Is this really a mermaid?!"Elsa looked at the new coming half-human, half-fish in front of her with shock.

Ace was surprised, as far as he remembers, there were no mermaids in Aladdin. A mermaid wasn't strange to him "Let me see, a beautiful girl upper body, shellfish for a bra, and a fishtail, yup, this is a mermaid." Ace said.

"Who the hell are you people?" The mermaid spoke with a worried expression as she crawled to the edge of the ship.

"Ay, we are pirates!!" Blue shouted, "I am captain Iblis sparrow, you're now on my ship which means, you are now my property!" Blue walked forward with his wooden leg and eye patch trying to show them off as much as possible.

"Pirates?!!" The mermaid was scared "Please no!!" She then hurried to the edge of the ship

The mermaid then tried to jump off the ship but Blue shot a fishnet at her catching her "Pirararara!! I caught you, little mermaid! You shall be my--" before Iblis can finish his words. His body was frozen.

"Enough!!" Elsa stomped near his frozen face before she shifted her gaze to the terrified mermaid "Are you okay? Please forgive him, he was just playing around." She bent down and took the net off of the mermaid. "We are not really pirates, we are travelers." She said.

'Of course...No one is a REAL pirate in here.' Ace thought while standing behind her with a smile.

The red-headed mermaid was still in doubt, but she has seen pirates before, and these people don't seem like them, especially the white-haired girl in front of her.

"Are you really not pirates?" She asked.

"Of course not," Elsa said with a smile. It seems that the trip and training is taking its effect on her as she finally forgot about her magical outbursts and the whispers.

"I am Elsa, this one behind me is Ace, that Blue guy is Iblis, this is my first time seeing a mermaid, what is your name?" Elsa asked.

"My name is Ariel." The red-headed mermaid now named Ariel replied with a smile. Somehow, she felt she can relate to Elsa, not sure how, but she can feel it.

Ace coughed to get some attention "So, Ariel, how come you flow out of the ocean?" He asked the important question.

"AH! That's right, I almost forgot, I was being chased by a horde of sea monsters." She said.

"Sea monsters?" Ace laned on Iblis's ice-covered body "Why?"

"To eat, probably," Elsa added.

"Close enough, but they want to kidnap me to use me as a hostage." Ariel said with her head down " I was almost caught, but thankfully I dived down to lose them and then I saw your ship, I mistook it for a floating rock...and here I am, getting pranked by some Blue creature!!" Ariel looked at Iblis with anger. For a moment, Iblis's frozen lips moved in a creepy laugh with his eyes open like a dead corps scaring Ariel making her take Elsa as a cover.

"As a hostage, against whom?" Elsa hugged Ariel as she reminded her when Anna used to hide behind her when their mother got angry at her.

"My father," Ariel responded. Ace went to the edge of the ship as he felt an incoming presence rushing towards the ship. He peeked at the water saw a huge shadow growing.

While Elsa and Ariel were talking, Ace pointed casually with his index at the shadow and formed a hit fire beam and shit it down, the beam went down like Lazer, it burned down everything. The shadow became smaller that only scattered parts of it remained.

"Hm? What are you doing?" Elsa asked when she sensed the abnormal heat.

"Nothing, but I think that the monsters are coming our way." Ace pointed at the water.

"They are here?! I have to go." Ariel frowned, she moved he hand and water floated from the ocean and carried her on it "I will distract them so they won't follow you, thank you for your help." She said.

Just when she was about to dive in the water, Ace grabbed her arm and throw on the ship again letting her evade a splitting water slash from below her.

"Ouch! Wh--" Ariel looked up to see three mermen jumping on the ship.

"Finally!!" One of them said as he landed behind Elsa. "You are really good at running, princess." He said.

Another merman landed beside Ace "What the hell was that attack from before??" He shouted, "our squad is whipped out while!"

Then the final merman landed beside the frozen Iblis "It must a secret technique of the Royal family, Tamatoa would be happy if we squeezed it out of the princess." He said.

"You!! Why are you three working Tamatoa? you're supposed to be my guards!!" Ariel shouted.

"Those are your chasers?" Elsa asked she was not scared, why would she? Her magic would protect her from any harm.

"Yes, they are extremely powerful, they can wield the power of water," Ariel said as she tried to use her powers but she was blocked by the man beside Elsa.

"Don't even think about, princess, we need you alive, but not them, come with us and we will let them live, we only want your father's trident for Tamatoa." The merman behind Elsa spoke with his hands holding a water blade near her back. "C'mon princess d--" before he could finish his words. He saw a white flash in front of him "Eh?" Before he was overwhelmed with a wave of ice shards that froze him and one half of the ship together with a good portion of the water behind them.

"My ship!!" Ace shouted with agony.

"Wh-- what is that girl?" The man beside Ace asked in disbelieve. Then he also saw a red light in front of him "Eh?" Before he was burned to death, together with a good portion of the water behind them. He didn't touch the ship, he loves this damned thing.

"What the hell is going on?" The last merman beside the frozen Iblis was shocked "I have to get out of here." He then jumped off the ship before he was followed by a fire fist from Ace burning him in the water "STAY AWAY FROM SHIP YOU CREEPS!!" Ace shouted.

Ariel was shocked, she could only watch with her little bubbles in her balm, the level between them is so big.

"Don't worry, Ariel, we will get you to safety..." Elsa said.

'We will?' Ace was surprised, an escort mission was not in his mind.

"Where do you live?" She asked.

"Ah...Erm, this direction..." Ariel replied while pointing forward.

"Good, we are heading that way anyway." Elsa said, "Come with me, we need to talk." Elsa dragged Ariel who was raiding a water bubble to move around.

Ace sighed "What a drag, man." He scratched his head "We will get in trouble with this Tomato dude." He mumbled before going to the steering wheel and control the ship.

Iblis...A single tear dropped from his eye from sadness, with his frozen teeth smile he spoke "Psst, anyone! I am still here, you know, your favorite Genie! Hello! It is cold in here. No for real, it is really cold. C'mon, Ace, A! Heeeeey!!"

Muhahahaha! It is payback time!!
