| ATLAN AND CALLIOPE |
half human half sea creatures swim free of fisherman nets With strange mer-like features They dont know each other very well but fate works in mysterious ways they are meant for a destiny In the coming days He is a warrior, brave and strong she is a maiden mermaid Years apart in their very souls that time soon to fade A shark swims in the water as the two are nearby the shark chases them the two almost die They escape by a spear made from a sunken ship Atlan he saves the day with a finely executed flip She feels safe he saved her life and a fast friendship hath grown into something much much deeper the seeds of love were sewn These two were never apart Always being together Till the evil Squid man Set to split them apart forever He took the girl and ran away to an evil cave in an undertow he set to let her fall beneath would hold her there then let go She would be lost for an eternity there is no way to escape one of those Atlan came in the nick of time To see the squid in such a pose Swiftly he swam with the dolphins He saved her again as hed planned the dolphins head~butted the squid to another ocean was he banned They swam home and only to find another problem to overcome till they would surely be completely and utterly as one There was a witch of a barracuda she was evil and held infinite power She was going to take over the city Within the hour She saw them and took up her wand to cast a horrid ugly spell As she pointed it at them to an underground passageway they fell Calliope she knew this place twas her fathers Treasure trove she knew all the passageways in the castle In the mer-town of seasnake cove They got a weapon and used it well Went back to the room with their foe Atlan held on to the spear then aimed and swiftly let go He got her right on, into her heart green blood did sprout out her vein As they stood and watched this whole scene They knew she would never hurt again So they got married, two months later And ruled the great palace as one All was well in the sea as it should be Their quest was finally done.
