     "Oh Randy," said the fair and beautiful mermaid 

princess Celia. "You have no idea how much I long 

for the beautiful cities of humans, and the fabulous 

cloths made by their hands."

     "Well why don't we ask your father to permit you 

access to the shores," replied her childhood friend.

     "Don't you dare call that man...fish...king my 

father he's a foul and cruel individual with no right 

for his place on the throne."

     "Well Celia it can't hurt to ask."

And so the two visited the king, Tomo.

     "Father, I wish to visit the land of humans," said 

Celia as she swam into her fathers seaweed garden.

     "What brought this upon," questioned the king as 

he turned to face his daughter. "You know the human 

land is dangerous, and I don't know why you can't 

understand that!"

     "But father, I'm eighteen now, you can't keep me 

here for..."

     "ENOUGH, I have had enough of this foolishness, I 

am the king of the seas and my rule is final, Celia I 

forbid you from leaving the 

     "Why won't you listen, just because you are king 

doesn't give you the right to be cruel and mean, why 

can't you be a nice and gentle ruler like my mother 

once was!" yelled Celia, now very very angry.

     "Do not bring up your mother, she was a petty 

Queen and even worse mother, to have raised such a 

child!"

     "How can you say such things, I thought you loved 

her!" And with that she swam off to find Randy, and 

leaving her father, who was already planning her end.

     "Oh, why must he be so mean to me and all the other 

creatures of the sea," cried Celia as she sat on her favorite 

cliff.

     "Well princess, why don't we go and visit the shore while 

your father is busy?" hissed Randy as he waded towards 

the cliff.

     "Why yes that sounds like a wonderful idea Randy, you 

know I don't say this a lot but I don't know what I'd do 

without you."

     "Well Celia, I feel just the same, now, lets go to the 

beach!"

     And off they swam to the golden cove of the mermaids, 

in search of the answer to their problems.

The Golden Cove of the Mermaids is a 

beautiful place where no humans can go 

because of a magical spell of illusion placed 

on it by Celia's mother so her daughter 

would have a place to swim and play.   For 

the longest time Celia felt as if this was the 

only thing her mom had left her, but she'd 

soon find that, in a way, her mom had 

predicted this very time in Celia's life.

     "OK, so what can we do that will stop that evil king 

from being so mean," said Randy as he slithered onto 

the sandy beach.

     Celia had already climbed further up shore and sat 

under the shade of a large and beautiful palm tree, in 

fact one her mother had planted.

     "Oh I curse this useless tail, the only things it's 

good for is swimming, but walking, the only place I 

can go is under this tree."

     "Princess focus, if we're ever going to find a way to 

get you to dry land we need to focus!"

     And so the two plotted a way to overthrow the king.

     While the princess and Randy were planning, the kings 

barons were visiting Little Ms. Puffer.

     "Well lady, are you gonna give us the goods?" This evil fish 

was Sam the shark, and the other thieves with him were Ollie 

the Octopus, and Carrie the Crab.

     "Yeah oldie, where's the goods," mocked Ollie and Carrie.

    "Ohhhhh, I don't have any, sonny, all I have is the 

donations for the little urchins..."

     "Well that will be just fine, and remember Puffer, we want 

the same tomorrow, or else you'll be sleepin' with the Tuna!" 

"Yeah sleepin' with the Tuna!" 

     "Oh what will I do!" yelled Ms. Puffer but little did she 

know help would be on the way soon.

     While Celia and Randy were planning, they hardly 

noticed the many fish that gathered on the shore.

     "Oh my goodness, when did you all arrive, oh no it's my 

fathers subjects, now were done for!" yelled Celia.

     "Oh, no princess, we also want your father off the 

throne, don't worry we're ready to help," said Baron Van 

Dolphin "For we've seen your the kings evil, why just a 

while ago I saw his hired thugs stealing from Little Ms. 

Puffer."

     "No not the Urchins!"

  "Yup"

     "We must stop his horrible crimes" and with that 

Celia told them of how to stop the king and his royal 

guard.
