Chapter 5: Mermaid

One day, when Leah is at a lake alone to relieve her mind from all her work at the castle, suddenly she heard a girl crying at the lake and Leah saw a girl lying down at the edge of the lake. She then later went to the girl.

"Hey, why are you crying?", asked Leah to the girl.

Leah was then shocked to see the girl's condition. The girl's skin is torn and also what makes Leah shocked is that she's a mermaid.

"Are you...a mermaid?", asked Leah.

"Yes. But I'm really in pain right now. I can't go back home", said the girl and she cried.

"What's your name? My name is Leah", said Leah.

"My name is Princess Naomi from Cearus. You can call me Naomi. Could you please help bring me to the nearest hospital?", asked Naomi.

"Sure, Naomi. But....", Leah stopped talking and think how to bring her because she is a mermaid.

"Oh, don't worry. I can transform into a human", said Naomi.

She then later transforms herself into a human but her condition is still the same as when she became a mermaid.

"Let's bring you to the castle", said Leah.

"Castle?! You're a princess?", asked Naomi.

"No. I'm just a royal secretary. I need to bring you to the castle to meet my brother, Sam. He will ask someone to treat you."

"Oh, I see. Okay then, let's go!"

Leah then later brings Naomi to the castle. But first, Leah needs to bring Naomi to meet the queen. At that time, Sam and Athena are also in the heir's room to discuss something with the queen regarding Zagary.

"Your Majesty, this is Princess Naomi from Cearus. She needs our help to cure her. Can she stay here until she fully recovers?", asked Leah to Queen Maria.

"Sure, she may stay here. I hope she will be okay after this. If anything, please let me know", said Queen Maria.

"Thank you so much, your Majesty", said Leah.

Leah then later brings Naomi to Sam.

"Sam, can you please help to cure Naomi? She's very sick now and she needs our help", begged Leah.

"Alright. I'll try to cure her. I also will call Dr. Bill, David, and Adam to come along", said Sam.

"Oh yeah, she's also a mermaid and the princess of Cearus", said Leah.

"Wh...what?! She's a mermaid?", Sam was shocked to hear what Leah said.

"Yes, I'm a mermaid", said Naomi.

"Can you transform yourself into a mermaid? Because if you are a mermaid, I can see the real issues on what happened to you", said Sam.

Naomi then later transforms into a mermaid.

"Wow, she's a mermaid!", said Athena.

"Can you please cure me so that I can meet my parents?", asked Naomi.

"Sure, Naomi. Anything for our new friend", said Sam.

Sam then later started to cure Naomi.

After a few weeks, Sam and the Heroes team tried to cure Naomi, they finally cured her.

"Alright, Naomi. You're cured. But you need to stay here for couple more weeks because you need to recover from your injury", said Sam.

"Okay, Sam. Thanks so much for curing me. Uhh, can I ask you something? You already married?", said Naomi.

"No problem. Yes, I am already married. Why are you asking me this?", asked Sam.

"Nothing, I just curious, not intended anything with you anyway. But with who?", asked Naomi.

"With my friend and also my Earth Elemental teacher, Iris", said Sam.

"I...Iris?" Naomi was shocked to hear that name.

"Why? Do you know her?", asked Sam.

"Of course! She's my best friend. If she's practicing her Earth elemental power at the lake behind her house, I'll always accompany her. But a few months ago, I didn't see her practicing again. Now, I know she's married and stayed with you. Can I meet her, Sam?"

"Sure! I will bring her here tomorrow."

"Thanks so much, Sam. It's been a long time since I didn't see her. I missed her so much."

"No problem, Naomi. I do this because we're now friends."

The next day, Sam brings his wife Iris to meet with Naomi.

"Who do you want me to meet, honey?", asked Iris.

"I can't tell you. It's a secret", said Sam.

Sam then brings Iris to the ward where Naomi is in there.

"Here we are in the wardroom. I believe you know her, darling", said Sam.

"Her? Who?", Iris still wondering who she needs to meet.

"Hi Iris!", said Naomi.

Iris was then shocked and she had heard that voice before.

"N...Naomi? Is that you?", asked Iris to Naomi.

"Yes, it's me, Iris. I'm Naomi, your best friend. Did you forget about me?", said Naomi.

Iris then hugged Naomi.

"It's been a long time since I didn't see you, Naomi", said Iris.

"Same with you. Where you've been? I always waiting for you at your training location", said Naomi.

"I'm sorry I didn't meet you before I'm staying with Sam. I am already married and I'm staying with him at the castle. I'm so sorry again I forgot to tell you about it", said Iris.

"It's okay Iris. Sam already explained everything to me", said Naomi.

"Thanks so much, honey, for bringing me to meet Naomi. It's been a long time since I didn't meet her", said Iris.

"No problem darling. I did this because of Naomi. wants to meet you and besides, she's here because she's sick. But now she's okay", said Sam.

"Really? Is it bad?", asked Iris.

"It's very bad. But I will recover soon", said Naomi.

"Oh, I'm glad to hear that", said Iris.

Then, Iris and Naomi have a long chit-chat at the ward because they didn't talk or met for months.

The next day, Sam and his team meet with Naomi to discuss regarding her kingdom which she said is in danger.

"Naomi, you told me before that your kingdom is in danger right?", asked Leah.

"Yes. Our kingdom is polluted with toxic substances and that makes everyone sick. We install a protection shield to recover the situation and it works for a while. Even my father is also sick because of the situation", explained Naomi.

"Oh no! So, how is he now?", asked Athena.

"He's very sick now. So I need to rule the kingdom for a while but on the day Leah found me, I was going to meet any medics or rescuer on the surface that can help my people because I can transform into a human", said Naomi.

"I see. Let us help you, Naomi. Maybe we can save and cure everyone in your kingdom", said Sam.

"You all want to help me?", asked Naomi.

"Of course! We want to help you because you're our friend", said Iris.

"Wow, thank you so much! We never ask anyone from the surface to help us, but all of you volunteer to help", said Naomi.

"You're welcome. Now have a rest first. For the next two days, we'll go to your kingdom. For now, I'll ask my friend, David to create tech gear for us to go to your kingdom", said Sam.

In Dr. Bill's lab, Dr. Bill with David and Sam trying to do tech gear so that they can become a mermaid and go to Cearus. Dr. Bill is not only a medical doctor, but he's also a famous tech creator in Zagary. He can invent a lot of cool things for Zagary's citizens such as a flying car! After a few tests they made on the gear, they all are finally done with their creation. Then, Sam met with his sisters to show their creation.

"Wow! What is this brother? Is this the device that we'll use to go to Cearus?", asked Athena.

"Yes, my sister. Dr. Bill, David, and I made this for like a day and we were finally done with it. This bracelet will transform us into a mermaid and we can go to Cearus", said Sam.

"When we will go to Cearus?", asked Leah.

"Tomorrow. You, Athena, Ben, Cally, and I will go to Cearus whereas Adam will stay here to take care of Adeline and Iris", said Sam.

The next day, Sam and his team together with Naomi went to Cearus. They are shocked to see that the sea is full of toxic substances. Luckily, Sam with Dr. Bill and David have already created an anti-toxic potion to reduce the acidity. They then drop a bit of the potion and it spreads throughout the sea and looks like the potion they created works.

They then went to Cearus to do the same thing and look like the sea and their kingdom is clean again and there is no more toxic water. Sam and his team then later went to meet the king. Sam tells his team to split up to cure all people in Cearus. Sam and Leah cured the king while the others cured the citizens of Cearus.

After an hour they did an operation to cure Cearus citizens, and finally, they all made it. They then need to meet the king of Cearus, King Aaron.

"Thank you to Sam and his team because all of you already cured my citizens and even our sea. Thank you so much!", said King Aaron.

"It's being our pleasure, your Highness. We're doing this because we want to help our friend, Naomi", said Sam.

"Oh yeah, father. Can I visit them again soon? Because I'm already in their team called Heroes", asked Naomi.

"Alright, my daughter! You can visit them anytime you want but you must tell me first before you go", said King Aaron.

"Thanks, father", said Naomi.

"Your highness, will you join our kingdom which is Zagary? We all can protect your kingdom and your kingdom will be one of our states but your power as a king and the administration system of your kingdom remain", said Benjamin.

"It will be an honor. I declared that our kingdom will become one of your states", said King Aaron.

After Sam and his team already met with the king, Naomi meets them before they leave.

"Thank you so much, all of you. You all have saved my kingdom", said Naomi.

"No problem, Naomi. After this, you can visit us more rapidly", said Sam.

"I know. I will see you soon!", said Naomi.

And the Heroes team saves a kingdom called Cearus and they also have a new teammate and a new best friend which is Naomi.
