Hello! I've hit a road block in Passion, so it's one shot time! I'm kinda suprised that there isn't a fic in this catagory yet, and maybe when I'm done with Passion, I'll continue this. I don't know, though...

Disclaimer: I do not own Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch or Vocaloid. Pink Hanamori, Michiko Yokote, and Yamaha do...

I sighed as I looked up at my ceiling. There wasn't anything to do! I was so bored that even Neru couldn't cheer me up.

Hi. I'm Rin, and I'm the princess of the South Pacific Sea. I'm fourteen years old. My best friend is Neru, a yellow mermaid and the daughter of a mermaid in my council. She's seventeen.

"Rin," Neru said, prodding me with her hairbrush. She's so lucky. Her hair goes down to the base of her tail when it's down and not in her usual side ponytail. Mine, however, only goes down to my waist. "You have to do something. Want to go chase the elders' fish?" she asked.

"Nngh."

"Come on!" Neru said, putting her hands on her hips. "You've always loved to chase the elders' fish!"

"I guess I'm just tired form the coming-of-age ceremony yesterday." I said, rolling over

"Oh! That's right." Neru said, sarcasm oozing out of her voice. "You're an adult now. You can't have fun any more. I'm three years older than you, and I love to have fun!"

"Neru," I said. " I didn't say that." I said, rolling over again to face her. "I'm just tired."

"You know what?" Neru asked. " I bet you're just mad 'cause the elders won't let you go up to the surface yet." I rolled over again.

"That's it! we can go up to the surface!" she said. "We can see if Miki and Luka want to come, and maybe even Kaiko and Defoko." I pulled my pillow over my head as she continued on.

"I'm pretty sure that Miku and Gumi are already there." she said. Neru trailed on for a while, and I think I actually fell asleep, but that was all ruined when Neru grabbed my arm and yanked me from my bed.

"Hurry up!" she said. "We're gonna be late! I already contacted the others, and they said that they'll meet us by the Marianna Trench."

"Why there?" I asked. I hate trenches. They're so dark. It's like a black hole in the ocean. And we were going to the deepest and darkest one. Oh joy.

"It was the first place that popped into my head." she said. "I guess it's because I did my Oceanography report on it last week."

"..."

"Come on Rin, it's time to go!" Neru said. I just groaned

"I think I'm starting to wake up." I said, rubbing my eye. "Hey, there they are!" In the distance, I could see four figures at what seemed to be the end of the world. It was, in fact though, the Marianna Trench. A shiver ran through my body.

Miki's voice was the first one I could hear.

"Hi, Rin! Hi, Neru!" she said, her long, orange hair waving in the current. "Are you guys ready to go up to the surface yet?" she asked. Neru and I nodded, and slowly, the six of us started swimming towards land.

"Oooohh! this is so exiting!" I heard Kaiko squeal.

"I know," Luka said.

As the sun got closer, I started to have second thoughts. Was I really ready for this? I only turned fourteen yesterday.

We surfaced, and it being brighter than I expected, I sheilded my eyes. I saw Miku and Gumi on the shore waving to us, and It was the I realized that our human forms looked different than our mermaid forms. Instead of aquamarine, Miku's hair was teal, going down to her feet. Gumi's was the same color green as it was underwater, but now it was very short. Both of their eyes were a darker shade than when I last saw them.

We crawled on to land, and I could see the same kind of changes happen to the rest of us. Neru's hair was now only down to her waist, and her yellow eyes became a gold-ish color. Miki's hair also got shorter and became a darker, almost red, orange, and her eyes changed to match. Defoko's eye color and hair color transformed into a darker version of itself, and her hair became boyishly short. Kaiko's hair, now the same leanth as Defoko's, became as dark as her eyes, but her eyes, however, stayed the same. Luka's hair got shorter, but stayed the same color, and her eyes became blue. Lastly, my hair, now down to my shoulders, had become lighter, and my eyes changed to a blue like Luka's.

We stepped out of the water and started walking towards Miku and Gumi.

"Hello, Miku, Gumi," Luka said, nodding to each in turn.

"Hey, guys," Gumi said.

"Shall we go to the hotel where we're staying?" Miku asked in a funny voice. We all laughed.

"Lead the way," I said.

We followed Miku and Gumi down to the street, and we started walking down the sidewalk. They started talking about something, but I didn't participate in the conversation. Instead, I watched the people around me. There were two girls with pink hair, a boy with teal hair, and two boys talking about something. One of them had white har, and red eyes, and looked pretty annoying. The other one, however, had blond hair in a small ponytail, and blue eyes. Thoses eyes were as blue as the sea.

I don't know why my gaze lingered on this boy longer than any of the other people, or how, for a few moments, I felt like he knew I was starring at him, but he turned around, and we just stood there, starring at each other, like we were lost in a transe. The other boy turned around, noticing that his friend was gone, and saw us starring at each other.

"Come on, Len," he said, smiling. Len (so that was the boy's name), hesitated a moment and then followed his friend. By that point, my friends had noticed that I wasn't with them, and turned around.

"Come on, Rin," Neru said. I think she ment it to come out as a snap, but it was very gentle, unusual for Neru.

"Here we go again," Gumi said, shaking her head, she and Miku out of range of everybody but me. Miku smiled, and the eight of us continued down the road.

As you have probably noticed, I bumped up the ceremony one year, 'cause I didn't feel like having Rin be thirteen.

so, what do you guys think?

BTW: I'm having fishsticks for dinner! All of you people who know me know what that means!

Please review! I might update if you do!
