Sinbad stretched his arms over his head, and yawned loudly whilst gazing at the roaring ocean. The ocean's wave rushed to fill the sand, and Sinbad spotted a figure washed up on the shore. Furrowing his eyebrows, Sinbad leaned forward to further inspect the mysterious figure. Sinbad stepped towards the sleeping creature, and the moonlight accented the creature's features. Sinbad then realized the figure was a woman, but no ordinary woman– a mermaid.

The mermaid's features somewhat resembled one of Sinbad's eight generals, Yamraiha. The young mermaid whom was named Mariana had flowing coral blue hair that was in soft waves; her prided hair seemed endless, it reached down to the tip of her tail. Mariana's eyes were unknown to Sinbad for she was in a deep slumber. Gills were adorned on Mariana's neck, and they were colored an aqua blue. Mariana's skin was tanned despite her home being the ocean, and she had light blue scales on some quantities of her body. Mariana's tail was a light aqua blue, and the scales formed unique patterns. Golden charms decorated around her tail which signified royalty and wealth. Mariana had similar golden charms around her wrists, arms, and forehead. Mariana's scales covered her large breasts and the sides of her stomach; plunged in her ample cleavage was a blue shell necklace that carried an important pearl inside.

Sinbad was infatuated with the sea creature's appearance, for he admired a woman's beauty greatly. They don't call him the "Lady Killer of the Seven Seas" for nothing after all. Sinbad scooped the blue-haired woman up in his muscular arms, and he watched in amazement as a bright light shined around the two. Sinbad closed his eyes briefly so he wouldn't be blinded, and when he opened his eyes, the mermaid was a human! Mariana's beautiful tail had turned into a pair of shapely, long legs and the golden charms still remained, but on her ankles. Sinbad gaped for a moment or two, and Mariana's eyes suddenly fluttered open.

Sinbad's golden eyes met with a pair of sea green orbs that resembled the seaweed and kelp of the ocean. Mariana's light pink lips opened slightly, and before she could make a sound, she started to cough violently. Sinbad slightly panicked and he patted her back in effort to help. Mariana coughed up a small amount of sea water, and Sinbad worriedly began to walk faster to his castle. Mariana weakly brought a hand to Sinbad's face, and she gently brushed his cheek with the palm of her hand.

"Thank you.." Mariana whispered, and her eyes closed, and she fell unconscious once again.

Sinbad blushed a light shade of pink, and the image of the beautiful woman kept replaying in his mind. Her long coral colored hair, her sea green eyes, her perfect figure... Sinbad mentally slapped himself for fawning so excessively over a mere woman, and he finally reached his destination.

"Yamraiha, may I come in?" Sinbad asked, still cradling the woman in his arms.

"Sharrkan, go away!" Yamraiha groaned, and Sinbad slightly chuckled.

"It's Sinbad, not your lover, Sharrkan." Sinbad teased, and the door immediately whipped open to reveal a disheveled Yamraiha. Sinbad assumed her and Sharrkan had another lover's quarrel. The two are rivals, but even Sinbad could tell how much they care for each other.

"Sorry! Come in." Yamraiha said, holding the door open for Sinbad. Yamraiha suspiciously eyed the unconscious female in his arms, and she began to scowl.

"You didn't..." Yamraiha seethed, and Sinbad rapidly shook his head in protest.

"It's not what it looks like! I found her washed up on the shore, and she turned into a human and I-I didn't do anything this time, wait I never did anything, you have to trust me-" Sinbad rambled, and Yamraiha giggled at the king's behavior. Sinbad regained his composure and he blushed slightly in embarrassment for acting so rash. Sinbad laid down the woman on Yamraiha's bed, and Sinbad tried to avoid his gaze from her naked body as he covered her with a blanket.

"Okay, now explain slower this time." Yamraiha said, rummaging in her drawers to find some clothes for Sinbad's guest.

"I was gazing at the ocean, and I suddenly saw this figure. It was a mermaid, and she was unconscious. I picked her up to carry her back here, and she turned into a human! That's why she's naked." Sinbad explained, and Yamraiha nodded.

"Turn around, I'm going to change her. Anyways, when she wakes up we'll question her on who she is and such. I mean, she could be working for the Kou empire.." Yamraiha said, and she changed the blue-haired woman into an outfit after Sinbad turned around. Yamraiha took a shell and brushed through the mermaid's hair to get the seaweed and knots out.

"You're right... I find this woman interesting, and do you notice her powerful aura? I can sense white Ruhk fluttering around her, it's a large amount too." Sinbad commented.

"Yes, tomorrow we'll introduce her to Aladdin. Maybe Aladdin can decipher what she is based on her Ruhk." Yamraiha said, and Sinbad nodded and turned around; he scooped Mariana in his arms, and cradled her close to his chest once again.

"I'll be taking her to my room. Thanks for the clothes." Sinbad said, smiling slightly at Yamraiha. She smiled in return, and Sinbad began to carry her to his luxurious room. Sinbad prayed that Ja'far is far away doing something because he knows Ja'far will jump to conclusions and think he deflowered a random woman, again. Sinbad pushed open his door with his free hand, and he quietly walked to his bed and placed the mermaid on his large sleeping quarters. Mariana subconsciously cuddled to Sinbad's side, and he laid down next to her. Mariana entwined her body with Sinbad's, and the king blushed heavily. This woman will be the death of him, and he doesn't even know her!
