Natalia Kozlova - Mermaid Silena’s adventures. Fairy tales

– My father, don’t worry. I’ll go down to the bottom alone. I will do everything in my power, I promise you. Tomorrow I will start, – the prince answered confidently.

And early in the morning, he and his team loaded scuba gear, food and other supplies and loaded it all onto a large boat. The king wanted to go with his son on a ship on a voyage in search of a sunken ship and jewelry, but the prince dissuaded him:

– Stay, I’ll find it on the navigators without any problems.

When they arrived at the appointed place with the latest equipment, they dropped anchor. They decided to first lower the bathyscaphe with professional scuba divers to check the bottom. The prince remained to wait, but more than an hour passed, and still no news came. Two hours have passed:

– What to do, what happened to them? – the prince was worried. He’ll have to check himself.

He put on flippers, scuba gear, put on a mask with a balloon and dived. But the undercurrent slightly carried him aside and the guy, no matter how he resisted, could not cope with him. And gradually the prince began to sink to the very bottom. Underwater flashlight illuminated the space around. It illuminated through the dark water column multi-colored jellyfish, small octopuses, huge tropical fish – all the beauty of the underwater world began to appear before the prince little by little. He had never seen such beauty, even though he dived more than once. Surprised:

– Something today everything looks like a fairy tale.

And then he saw a very huge fish with thick elongated lips, as if she was looking for someone to kiss. Her bulging eyes widened even more, clearly noticing the prince: is it really him I have to kiss?! But, having changed her mind, she hastened to sail away. The guy only managed to touch her tail, which slipped out of his hands. And at that moment he stumbled on something, and his hand grabbed onto something round. After examining it carefully, the prince realized that this was the helm of the ship.

– So I’m already on deck? thought the prince. – That’s luck. So our ship has slightly shifted along the course, or this sunken one has moved. Over time, he was swept aside by the current, and he began to examine the ship.

And at the same time, the little mermaid was there. She also decided to swim to the sunken ship, where a group of students sailed with Catfish on an excursion.

In the hold of a sunken ship, last time she discovered a large beautiful vase with carved flowers and wanted to take it away:

– I’ll put my underwater mimosas in it – they’ll look nice together – and she was already dragging a vase out of the wreckage.”

And at that very moment the prince was backing away towards her from the other side, curiously examining the ship’s hull. And, having scraped off a thick layer of mud and shells, he found ancient frescoes with half-erased inscriptions. The prince thought:

– Obviously, it says who this ship belonged to. Judging by the frescoes and documents that we own, he is of our dynasty, – and then he saw the coat of arms in confirmation of this: – So I found what I was looking for! Here are our treasures! But I need to hurry up, the oxygen is running out, – he, turning around, strained, trying to remove part of the fresco, but he didn’t have enough strength – the fresco held tight. The prince tensed even more, putting his feet on the wall, grabbed it with both hands and pulled it with all his might, so much so that he was thrown back.

Meanwhile, Silena was backing away, with an effort, afraid to break it, pulled her huge vase out of the cabin, which looked like a closet. The prince fell to the deck under the weight of the scuba gear, and at that moment the mermaid, pulling out the prey, stumbled over him and fell next to the vase in an embrace.

Seeing each other, they simultaneously cried out from the fact that they were face to face:

– Oh, what is it? Human! – she screams in horror.

– Oh, girl! Without a mask on the bottom?! – cried the prince in surprise.

Silena convulsively, not understanding anything, waved her tail, trying to get up, but the vase interfered with her. The prince, rising on his elbows, and seeing the whole picture, screamed in horror, realizing:

– Oh my God, I already have glitches from falling: I see a mermaid, and even with a vase!

Having hit a stone, the balloon was damaged and began to release oxygen – bubbles went. The prince began to choke, waving his arms. Fell and lost consciousness. The mermaid was frightened that the man would die, threw back the vase and quickly called the familiar stingray taxi using her underwater radio. Quickly plunging the breathless diver onto his back, giving an electric discharge, the stingray, shaking its wings, pulled with all his might along with the mermaid and the prince to the surface.

Once on the waves, she directed the stingray to the nearest island. The prince was still unconscious. Silena noticed that the guy was suffocating and tore off his mask. And she threw up her hands in surprise:

– Oh, how beautiful! As if I had already seen him before … – she slightly strained her memory and remembered: – Oh, he looks like my bronze figurine. Blimey? Well, this is what I wanted to meet! – quietly laughed: how quickly it came true.

Her admiration was interrupted by the stingray:

– So, we sailed. Let’s unload, I’m not helping you here. The little mermaid raised her head and saw the shore. Having dragged the prince off the slope by an aqualung, she dragged him onto the white sand of an amazingly fabulously beautiful island with palm trees full of ripe coconuts and thickets of lianas over which monkeys jumped.

Having quickly delivered the victim to the island and dragged him ashore, Silena stroked his hair affectionately. From this, the prince slightly opened his black eyes and in front of him through the muddy haze he saw again the green-eyed beauty mermaid. Opening his eyes wide and shuddering, he exclaimed:

– Again I have a glitch! – groaned and again fell into unconsciousness.

The mermaid furrowed her brow.

– Oh, what strange people: have you seen mermaids or what? How tender and sensitive they are. Slightly that – at once fall without feelings. Hmm, we’re not. We are very strong. If they tried to live in our kingdom, ha-ha, everyone would have clapped in a swoon, – smiling at her thoughts, Silena turned around.

At this time, the horn of an approaching yacht signaled. The mermaid started, frightened, and rushed into the water. Sliding behind a huge gray stone, she hid behind it and began to observe what was happening.

And on a two-story luxury yacht owned by an oil tycoon, a rich heiress and friends celebrated her coming of age. The snow-white ship really dazzled with its luxury. The youth celebrated. The father gave the yacht to his beloved daughter to have fun and the youth had fun, music played, everyone drank champagne.

And then the hero of the occasion, Milena, shouted:

– Today I’m a birthday girl, and I wish those coconuts out! – she held out her hand and pointed to the island.

Everyone shouted:

– Yes, yes, we also want to go to the island. Let’s continue our fun there! Swim, swim there!

The captain moored and immediately saw a man lying on the shore. Shouted into the hand:

– I see a man on the shore! It looks like he needs help.
