World of the Sea Shell.
webpage: http://dailywriting.net/SeedWeb.htm
The smooth, silkyness of the mother of pearl surroundings envelope me in a sense of luxury. The perfect temperatures, the reflected light and colours hints at wonders yet to be explored.I am happy in my little Sea Shell home. This is my little world - a perfect world for me.
I am what is called a Sea Fairy, I live in a Sea Shell, I have no need for food, I never feel hot or cold. My shell is insulated with beautiful, mother of pearl like walls, floors and ceiling. The curl of the shell is my bed, here I huddle and rest, re-energizing myself for the night time romps.
The reflected lights and colours of my shell home illuminate me at night time, it is another wonderous secret yet to be discovered by the humans. So, when the night arrives, I poke my little head out of my shell and look up to the jewelled sky, how beautiful it is!
I carefully step out of my home and stretch my arms and wings wide, oh, that feels good. My bright, shimmering form slowly hovers above my Shell, I hear the call of the waves, I smell the salt air, I take a deep breath and fly to the waters edge. In frantic activity I flap my wings together, this makes a humming noise which attracts my friend.
Dawtreen is my sea horse, he comes to the waters edge and I pat his head as I climb aboard for my ride down into the depths of the ocean. We surf the waves and I laugh with pleasure, how limitless is life as a sea fairy!
We dive, down, down, down into the deep, dark ocean. I feel the waters caress my body, my hair floats around my face, my wings trail behind me like a tail.Far off in the distance I can see the shimmering lights of an underwater city called Atlantis. It's here we all meet to romp and play upon the ocean bed, but only 'til dusk - for it is too dangerous to travel back during daylight, fish love to gobble up sea fairies and sea horses.
We reach Atlantis and enter into the bustle of waters depths. It seems like all the Sea Fairies and the Sea Horses of the world are here! The illuminating lights from our bodies light up the City and draw others like us through the black ocean depths. Bubbles effervesce around us as we race each other here and there, others watch to see who will win, while others just catch up and chat.

There are rumours that tonight King Neptune will come into our presence to inform us of a threat to all of us sea creatures. King Neptune is always accompanied by his Merpeople. Mermaids and Mermen closely follow the King to do his bidding, His most loyal subjects and usual messenges to the humans. Tonight is no different, they will accompany Him to discuss the problems we all have to face.
I look around and realise our friends the Jellyfish are enclosing us, the Jellyfish only do this at important times when we are not to be disturbed and intruders are not permitted to enter. The Jellyfish close up every gap around us in the open sea, they have a special power specifically for times like this. As they get close they create electricity that gently hums between them, each strengthening each other incase of attack. They literally become our protective forcefield.
Seadragons huddle together awaiting King Neptunes arrival just incase He has a special job for them to do. They often feel overlooked when it comes to the order of the seacreatures and their given tasks. They wait in anticipation that they too can be a part of whatever great event was about to take place.
Suddenly two electric eels swim into view clash their tails together and create a light beam that stretches deep into the ruins of Atlantis. Firstly, the Merpeople arrive, gracefully swimming around looking for some rocks or ruins to recline upon. Once settled, their eyes turn toward the deep recess now illumined by the lightbeam.
King Neptune's trident is first seen as He parts the seaweed floating around, then King Neptune in all his glory gallently swims into view. Awestruck by His powerful presence, gasps of delight and amazement echo through the ocean swirl. For many, this is their first sighting of the King. King Neptune chooses His position so he can be seen and heard by all.
He stands and awaits His recognition from His loyal subjects. As if woken from a dream we all suddenly realise we have yet to bow before the King of the Ocean. We pay our respects by bowing in unison, this pleases the King and a smile creeps over His face but quickly dissappears as He announces His message.
'My loyal subjects, I have come here tonight to announce a very serious matter which we all must play a part in solving. It has come to my attention that the humans are destroying our wonderland, our great Ocean is being polluted to such an extent that if we allow it to continue, we ourselves will sadly perish.
The humans do not mean to do this, it is a result of their ignorance and folly. In their efforts to trade with other countries, or as a result of ignorance they are quickly filling our Ocean with waste and Oil. The fishermens plastic bags, fishing lines, and empty bottles, cans and rubbish kill the seabirds and smother the fish. The Oil spillage destroys millions of Ocean life before they can clean it up.
They do not realise the importance of the Ocean and the life held therein to the world they live in. Something must be done. Come, my subjects, let us work together to help each other survive this chaos'. I am open to suggestions'.

Name: World of The Sea Shell. part 3.

We all looked at each other dumbstruck, how could this be? Are we really in that much danger? The telepathic, fearful thoughts could be heard all around us. A graceful Mermaid swam into King Neptunes presence."My King, I have an idea, could we your Merpeople show ourselves in great numbers and lure these silly humans to their deaths along the great coastal rocklines so we would not have this problem".
The Kings looked shocked but then he smiled gently as he said, "no my child, that is not the way, we have learnt from times past we must peacefully co-exist with the humans, they on the land and us in the Ocean depths." The Mermaid swam back to her rock a little embarrased.
A little Sea dragon timidly floated into the Kings presence. "My King, can we not make more contact efforts with the deep sea divers who visit us and tell them to let the other humans know of our plight? "The King replied. "Ah, little seadragon a much better idea! Alas, the humans only fear us, kill us or want to catch us for pets, no this would not work either". The little seadragon bowed and returned to his group.
I had an idea but I was too scared to enter into the Kings presence. I must ! I chided myself. So, I took a deep breath and swam to float in front of the King. "My King, could us Sea Fairies use our sea shell homes to whisper the message of the Oceans magic to the human children? A haunting but peaceful, serene sound, one which would ignite their imaginations and stir their souls so deeply, they would grow up wanting the Ocean to stay clean and healthy?
"The King smiled, "Yes! Yes, little Seafairy, you have a wonderful idea, one that can be used for the future but we still have the problem of the present, thank you my child". I was both elated and shocked at the Kings praise and a little embarrased I humbly bowed and swam back to my group. I received pats on the back and praise from them all. I'm sure I must have glowed a little brighter from the feeling of accomplishment I had!
King Neptune raised His trident - a sign that meant we were all to listen. "My loyal subjects, I have the plan, listen closely, this is now a royal command. Merpeople, you shall swim around the oil spills and create the beginning of a whirlpool.I shall open up a hole on the ocean bed, when I raise my trident you shall swim away as fast as you can because soon after that I shall pull the whirlpool and the Oil it contains and cause it to be sucked down into the hole before it can spread and cause any further damage.
After this, I shall cause the hole to be covered over with sand by striking the Ocean bed with my trident, this will create turbulence and cause great waves which will continue the burial process.
Little Sea dragons, you must warn all creatures of the sea to stay away from the area or they too shall be sucked into the void, this is a very important job, one which you can feel proud.
Electric eels, Merpeople and Sea horses, you and the Rays, Whales, Sharks, Seals and Fish must draw all humans, whether divers, fishermen and boats on the seas away from the area, so they are not harmed and in so doing will also save yourselves. If you forget, you do so at your own peril, for we all need each other to balance the world.
Little Sea fairies, you are to make the soothing sounds of the Ocean hum through your Sea Shell homes, so when human children pick them up to listen, their imaginations will be triggered and their souls will be so touched they will love the Ocean with a great passion and will grow up to take care of it. This is how we shall save ourselves, our home and the humans, this is now my law".
So, ever since those meetings, that's the way it is. Children listen with awe and wonder to the sound of the sea shell...
