Ludwig's POV

"Finally, some peace and quiet where I can finally read my book without anyone disturbing me," I muttered softly to myself. "Nothing beats reading a book at the beach." I walked around and finally found a shady spot where I usually read my book in peace. Yes, now its peaceful and quiet, meaning there's no bruder of mine, no one shouting about and no sound of a piano being played. After adjusting myself to a good spot under the tree, I flipped open to a page and started reading on the part where I last stopped.

"I was awakened by a soft hand caressing my cheek. Opening my eyes slowly, I couldn't make out who it was since the figure was a bit blurry. "O-Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to wake you up," Blinking a few times, I just stared at the person in front of me, He must be a guy judging by his voice. He had a beautiful hazel brown hair with two small curls sticking out of his hair. "Where am-" I was stopped by a soft lips pressed against mine. "Gera.."

"P-Prince Ludwig?"

"..."

"Prince?"

"H-Huh? F-Francis?"

"Your father King Roderich wishes to see you.. He told me to come and look for you." Francis said. "What is it he wants this time?" I stood up and closed my book, annoyed that this French bastard interrupted me when I almost got to the good part of the story . "I'm not sure myself Prince Luddy." Sighing and rubbing my temples, I headed towards the castle with my father's advisor. Upon reaching the castle, I was greeted by one of my three dogs, Blackie. "Hello there Blackie~" I said while giving him a good pat on the head before heading to my father's room. It took me a few minutes to reach to his room. I knocked on the door before entering. "You wished to see me father?" He was sitting on a armchair sipping his tea (as usual). "Hello Ludwig. Take a seat please." He pointed to another armchair just opposite of him. "I want to tell you something." Closing shut the door behind me, I walked towards him and sat down. "Before that, would you like some tea or coffee and perhaps some desert to top with that?" He asked me. "I rather have beer… or some wurst… ahhh wurst… pure German sausage"I thought to myself before answering him. "N-No thank you." Putting down his tea cup, He sighed before speaking. "We're going on a holiday… on a cruise ship." A-A cruise ship? Holiday? "For how long?"

I asked him.

"I don't know, Maybe a week perhaps, But we're only going to do some fishing.. This is all your mother's idea" He sighed. "She suggested we all do some family bonding together and we're leaving tomorrow." Fishing? Why go fish on a cruise ship? Is that even possible? I rather stay home and eat wurst for the whole week!" I complained. My father sighed "No buts, your not the only one who is rejecting this idea. But, your mom insisted that we go together as a family.. Besides.. You know you can't reject your mom.. Unless you want to meet your head with a frying pan.." "Okay, Then I should go pack my things for this trip." Without waiting for him to reply, I stood up and left the room. After walking a few hallway down, I reached my room and entered it before closing it shut behind me.

"Done" I sighed as I place my bag on the floor, as I only packed a few clothes, some shorts and underwears, Sun block lotion, a sunglasses and my book which I had yet to finish reading it. It's already past 6pm, so I'm sure dinner will be ready soon. I walked to my closet and grabbed a towel before heading to my bathroom. I wanted to soak myself in the hot warm water just to relieve myself from stress. After soaking myself in the water, I felt my body relaxing a little.. until a certain someone just barged into the room.

"Kesese! Hey West~!"

"...What is it?"

"Mother asked me to get you since it's already dinner time~!"

"I'll be down soon.." I sighed before getting out of the water.

"Okay! Don't blame me if I eat some of your portions! Kesese!" He said before slamming the door shut as he left. I went on to dry myself before getting my clothes.

Once that was done, I went out and headed towards the dining hall. "Oh, hello Ludwig~!" My mother said before motioning me to sit beside her. Why was she the only one at the table? "Erm.. Mum.. Where's everyone?" I asked looking around. "Your father wanted to eat in his room, He can't stand leaving his piano alone since we're going on a trip tomorrow~" She chuckle to herself. "O-Oh.." I took a seat beside her. Looks like we're having Stelze* today.

"D-Delicious.." I quickly took another bite, while my mother giggled after seeing my expression when I first tasted it. Then there was an awkward silence between us, none of us spoke, we could hear our cook humming a tune while my mother… She just sat there in her own world. I don't really talk much with my parents anymore, since I was busy with my"stuff"

"Ohh~ I can't wait for tomorrow~" I raised an eyebrow before looking at her. "Tomorrow? You mean the cruise ship trip?" I could see her eyes sparkle with excitement as she nodded her head. I just stared at her before placing my fork down. I don't really know what to say actually. Perhaps maybe she's right. Its been so long since me and my family have some bonding together.. The last trip we ever went as a family when I was 10? Or younger? I can't remember my age.. But I can still remember how we spent our trip together. All I remembered was playing catch with bruder near the beach.

"I'm done eating." I took a napkin to clean my mouth and putting the utensils on the plate. "Oh no! I forgot to pack my things for tomorrow!" she said before standing up. "Ah! Goodbye my dear son~" She walked towards me and planted a small kiss on my cheek before skipping out of the kitchen while humming a tune. Sighing, I stood up and went to my room. I changed into my pajamas and headed straight to bed. A few tossing and turning before falling into a deep sleep.

~*~The next day*~*~*~

I opened my eyes due to the sunlight shinning upon my face. I blinked a few times before getting up to prepare for the trip. I stood up, bathed and went to the kitchen to have breakfast before settling off to this "cruise". Upon reaching the kitchen I was greeted by our cook, Wang Yao. "Zao An aru~" "Uh.. Guten Morgen, what are you cooking now?" " Oh~! I'm cooking some paos and dumplings for you aru~! Why don't you wait for me to cook finish aru~! It's almost done anyways~! OH~! I know~! Why don't you get Prince Gilbert aru?~" I nodded before going out of the kitchen and headed to my bruder 's room.

"B-Bruder? Are you awake?" I slowly entered the room be-

"KESESESESESESESE! Sup west! Trying to sneak on me, eh? Well you can't, 'cause the AWESOME me woke up earlier then you to prank on good oh franny."

" Oh gott.. I'm only here to wake you up. Anyway, Yao wanted us to go down for breakfast." I told him before heading down to the dining hall.

" Kesesesese, I'll be right there west! Just gimme a minute"

As I walked towards the dining hall(which was awkward) , Yao had already placed the food on the table, And gott it smells good. Yao is actually a very good cook, Even though he usually cooks his homeland dishes for us. Sometimes he learned how to cook our culture dishes as well. "Aru~! Prince Ludwig did you wake your brother up aru~?" He asked me and started humming a tune. "U-Uh.. He says he'll be down soon." I replied back before taking a seat. "Here~ Come try this dishes aru~!" He said while placing my plate in front of me.

I took no hesitation in eating the dumplings, "Hmm, It taste delicious." I said while chewing on the soft texture of the food. Gott.. They are some strange fillings mixed with chopped vegetables and mince meat.

He just laughed and thanked me before heading back into the kitchen while humming a tune again.

As soon as I finish eating, I took the napkin to clean my lips which was covered in strange soy sauce and spices before placing the napkin on the plate. As soon as I was done, I heard a familiar annoying laugh followed by a dramatic screech, and I sighed as I knew who it was.

"What did you do this time Gilbert?"

"Kesesese~! Sup again west! The awesome me has arrive~! Kesese!" Gilbert said before taking a seat beside me.

"What did you do this time Gilbert?" I asked him AGAIN, Hoping he'll listen to me and didn't do anything related to stupidity or the prank he mentioned earlier.

"Well, I changed franny's hair conditioner to a pink hair dye! You should see the look on his face!" He burst out laughing. "Ah~! Zao an Prince Gilbert aru~!" Yao greeted him before placing a plate of dumplings and pao in front of him. "Kesese" was Gilbert reply.

A few minutes later, I felt a dark aura- wait.. Let me rephrase, I felt a rapist, dark aura heading towards the dining hall.

"P-Prince Gilbert…" Our father's advisor stood in front of us, filtrated and angry. I couldn't help but let out a small chuckle, He really do look funny in pink. "M-My hair.. Look what you've done to my beautiful mane!" He started sobbing dramatically.

"Kesese! But you look good in pink!" Gilbert said laughing at him. "Aiya~ Francis aru~, I do have a bottle of light brown hair dye, Do you want it? I can give it to you since I don't really need it aru~" Yao said while trying to think where he placed the bottle of dye.

"YES, I need to get rid of this hair colour before King Ro-" Before he could even finish his sentence,

"F-Francis? What's with the sudden change of hair colour?" Then there was an awkward silence.

Everything seems like slow motion, Francis turned around slowly to see my father standing right behind him with a what's-the-matter-with-you face. AND BAM! Both their faces met and my bruder, being the asshole he is, took multiple pictures of father and francis.. kissing, for some awkward reason, they continued staring in awe and shocked.

"Oh my~ Francis~ I didn't knew you had a thing for pink~" Elizaveta walked in while giggling, She stopped mid-way and looked at both Francis and Roderich before saying, "Francis… Are you trying to hit on my husband?" " W-WHAT? E-Elizaveta!"

"I'm joking, sheesh Roderich…"

"Jó reggelt mindenkinek~" She said before taking the seat just opposite me. Francis just stood there before saying "I-I'm not hungry.. Uh.. Yao please come with me." "I'm sorry your highness for such an act." He quickly motioned him to come out of the dining area. Sighing, I stood up and left to bring out my bags.

After bringing my things to the living hall, I sat down on a couch and sighed. "Going fishing on a cruise ship huh..." I couldn't stop myself from letting a small smile, thinking about it, how is it possible to do fishing on a cruise ship when the ship keeps moving? My thoughts were interrupted by small licks on my hands. Looking down I saw it's one of my dogs, Aste. "Hello Aste~" I smiled at him. "Woof!, Woof!" He waged his tail excitedly.

"I guess I won't be seeing you for about a week huh.. Don't worry, Wang Yao and the servants will take good care of you" I patted his head. Aste whined before jumping on the couch and snuggled right beside me. I just smiled and pat his head, even though I know I'll get mad for him to seat on the coach. Closing my eyes, I managed to fall asleep.

When I woke up I wasn't on the couch but on... A bed? Sitting up and rubbing my eyes a few times just to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Where the hell am I? Before I could think any further, The door was bang wide open and there came my bruder.

"KESESE! Hey west! Glad you're awake! If you're wondering where we are, We're on the AWESOME cruise ship~! Kesese!"

Being confuse, I asked him, "Then how the hell I got in here? Wasn't I on the couch befor-?"

"Kesese! Silly bruder! The AWSOME me carried you all the way here! Kesese!" Oh right.. Should have thought of that. "WELL, since you're awake, Lunch will be ready soon." He said before leaving the room. Once the door close shut, I got out of bed and went to take a shower before heading out of the room. Grabbing a mini bag I brought with me, I stuffed the sun block and my book inside before going out of the room.

After walking a through few hallways, I only managed to reached the pool area. I wasn't really expecting to come here, I thought I could find somewhere quiet other than my room to relax and read the book. Sighing, I decided to take a seat at one of the pool chair since it had a good view of the sea. As I was adjusting the colorful umbrella to shade myself from the rays of the sun, A lady, Okay maybe a waitress walked up to me and smile, "Good day sir, What would you like to have?" She handed me a small menu. Well.. Since I'm hungry, I might as well order something to eat while reading. Flipping the pages, I saw that they had my all time favorite, wurst. "Uhh.. I would like to have some wurst and, a glass of beer." I smiled at her. "Okay sir, please wait for a moment." She said before going off to who knows where, Probably the kitchen or something.

Well, after a good 10 minutes, she came back with a plate of my favorite wurst with a glass of beer. "Here you go sir." She placed the items I ordered on a mini table just beside me.

"T-Thank you." I told her, she smiled before leaving.

"Good thing they had my favorite food here.. Ahh wurst.. Nothing was better than wurst and beer.." I thought to myself before chewing on my food and sipping a bit of beer. Placing the beer down, I took out my book and opened to the page where I last stopped.

"R-Rome? H-How did you know my name? I asked him. He just smiled at me before touching my locks of golden hair. Then, suddenly, I noticed sometime disturbing.. His beard is awkwardly grown. Shave it Rome, Shave it.. I sighed and said "Shave your beard.. Its awkward." He chuckle before adding "Your beautiful, My love," What the.. Did he just call me "BEAUTIFUL"? Before I could say anything, He pressed his lips against mine, this time, with much more force. I could feel his hot breath against mine, There's no denying that my face was flushed red. "W-Why are you doing this?" I asked even though I'm out of breath as his lips paredt. "It's because you're beautiful Gera, Can't you remember?" He looked straight into my eyes, I could see sadness inside. He leaned forward and kissed my cheek before removing my shir-"

"KESESE! Reading again huh west!" That annoying laugh again, not only annoying.. It's creepy, seriously Francis laugh goes 'ohonhonhon' and his was 'kesesese' seriously, who laughs like that or creates this weird noise. Just when I'm about to go on to the good part too. I closed my book and looked up at the stupid figure in front of me.

"W-What are you doing here...bruder?" I asked, annoyed the fact that I really couldn't read my book in peace.

"Going for a awesome swim of course! Kesesese! Don't you want to go for a swim west?"

"No thank you. I rather sit here and read my book in peace."I stressed on the word "peace", Hopping that he'll get the message and leave me alone, if possible, FOREVER.

"Whatever, West! You should try having fun! Kesese! Even Francis is having fun!" He point to where Francis was at, who was at the other side of the pool surrounded by lots of women giggling, away.

'Kesesesese! Well I better get going now!' Gilbert said before heading towards the pool.

Sighing, I reach out my hand to grab another piece of wusr- paper? It said,

'P.S I ate your wurst while you were busy reading! Kesesesesese!'

I could feel my eye twitching as I let out a small "tch", doesn't matter anyway, at least I still have my beer.

"That bastard…." I swore to kill him once I see him again. My beer was replaced with a glass of water instead with a note saying, "P.S.S I drank your beer too! Hope you don't mind~! KESESE!"

Rubbing my temples to cool myself down, I sighed as I got up and walked to towards the railing. My mood brightened a little due to the beautiful scenery that nature has put in. The ocean was clear deep blue that reflects a thousand image under the sun, the smell of fresh salty seas and the sound of seagulls passing by, the wind was refreshing and gives a calming effect. ''Ah.. Such a beautiful sight.." I breathe to myself. It was until I felt a hands caressing my hips, and starts humming a familiar tune.

"Mom, what do you think you're doing?" I groaned.

'Kesese! Spread your arms "Rose"~! Spread your arms~ Kesese! The awesome me will hang onto you "darling" " I swear I could feel my veins popping out.

Upon hearing the word "darling", my stomach felt uneasy and queasy. "What the hell do you think you're doing Gilbert?"

"What! I'm trying to imitate a certain part in the movie called Titanic, which I find it hilar-ious~! Kesese!" Gilbert laughed.

'Then do it on someone else dumb idiot!' I shouted at him, But not too loud.

"Nah! There's no one to do that other then you! Kesese! Francis is busy going all horny corny with the ladies" He pointed to Francis. "While mom and dad are busy 'Fishing', Kesese!"

Before I could even say anything, He disappeared to the pool laughing his signature laugh.

"I hope you drowned…" I cursed softly, Even though I knew cursing was bad, Mom used to say that if you curse someone, it might happen to you instead. But I don't really care anyway.

Looking back at the beautiful sight, I spotted a few dolphins not far away. They were jumping out of the water doing flips and communicating with each other. I found it entertaining to watch. They were heading towards a rock? Examining the rock carefully, I spotted something sitting on it, Wait sitting? I leaned forward hopping to get a better view what that "thing" since the ship is moving just pass of the rock but a few distance away.

".Gott…" Right in front of me, Okay maybe a distance away from me, sitting on the rock was a human with a f-fish tail? I rubbed my eyes to make sure my mind was not tricking me or anything. But I was wrong.

I set my eyes on the rock again, It was oddly shaped covered with moss and barnacles on it. I stared closely at the mysterious figure, judging by the shape of that "thing", it must be female because she was wearing a shelled bra or something. But I remembered something about this… Francis had once told me about it.. Was it a manatee? No, no, ah yes! Mermaids!

Looking back at the "mermaid", she must have caught me starring at her, she looked in my direction. As soon as the setting sun shone its rays upon her, I was amazed by the sight. She had short light auburn hair and her eyes were what caught my attention, hazel brown met my icy blue and I could tell that there was a bit of excitement shone in her eyes.. She was indeed a true beauty. Soon the sun was overtaken by darkness behind her, the way she was s-smiled at me... It was just.. beautiful and I could feel my pulse increasing,..

She looked at me one last time before saying something and jumped into the depths of the unknown. I couldn't make out what she was saying since it was too dark to even read those delicate cheery lips. "Ohonhon, Prince Ludwig~" I jumped and turned to the person who called me.

"F-Francis.." I muttered. "I-I saw it.. J-Just now…" I said in a disbelieving voice. "Yeah, yeah I know, You're talking about the sky right? Anyway, I'm here to get you to the dining hall, There's a buffet there and I bet you're hungry~ Ohonhon." He stood beside me and looked at the sea.

"No.. Not that.. I saw a mermaid.." He looked at me eyes widening. "I know, I know.. You're gonna say I must be drea-" Before I could even finish my sentence, "YOU SAW A MERMAID?" He shouted at me with excitement written on his face, If some passer-by had heard what he said and they must think his crazy. Which they did…

"Shush! Not so loud! People will think you're crazy!" I hushed him, Even though it's a little too late already, There were people looking at us with a what's-with-that-guy look. Francis just laughed and laughed which creped me out before motioning me to come follow him. He walked towards the door which lead to some random hallway.

"W-Where are we going exactly?" I asked looking around at the nicely decorated hallway, but it seems awfully quiet. The only sounds that could be heard is the sound of our footsteps walking and the smooth noise of waves moving at its own pace. He didn't say a word but continued walking along the hallways until he stopped in front this huge door before pushing it open.

A library? Damn! I should have known it was here all along! Its peaceful environment was what I was looking for.. No wonder no one comes to this side of the hallway.. "W-What are we doing in the l-library?" I asked looking around hopping that I might be able to any of my favorite novel.

"Did you know there's a rumor about these mermaids?" Francis said with seriousness in his tone. I knew whenever he uses that tone, it meant I shouldn't joke around with him, Even my stupid bruder knows this. It took me a few minutes to answer back, "Uh.. No?" I looked at him with curiosity.

"Legends say, that mermaids harbor pearls within their tails and who ever got hold of their pearls, they can have their wish come true." He sighed, "But I thought those weren't real until you told me you saw one. I did believe you because I seen one myself, That mermaid…" He trailed off and looked somewhere.

"That mermaid what?" One eyebrow raised at him, It seemed like he knew something about them but he couldn't bring himself to tell me. "Ah, never mind. We should go to the dining room now." He walked towards the door without waiting for me, but I managed to catch up with him.

~*~*~*~ At the dinning hall. ~*~*~*~

"Ludwig~! Francis~! What took both of you so long! I thought both of you went missing!" Elizaveta said looking worried and on the verge of crying.

"I-I'm sorry mom.. "Please forgive me Elizaveta.." We both said at the same time. "It's okay now, since both of you are here, go get something to fill yourself~" She pointed to a buffet filled with food and drinks at the corner. Without a word, I walked towards the set of food, Grabbed a plate and a fork I quickly started taking lots of wurst since I'm really very hungry. Thank Gott they have wurst here, Or I might die already.

As soon I was about to eat, The ship starts shaking like as if there's a earthquake. Lights flickered before going dark. I could hear the people started screaming and panicking. "W-What's going on?" I thought to myself. "The ship's gonna crash!" Someone came slamming the door opening before shouting again, "Everyone! Evacuate the ship! IT'S GONNA CRASH!" As soon as the guy said that, Everyone start running out and panicking as they headed towards the life boats hanging at the sides of the ship. I managed to get to the outdoor pool area which the boats had been, everyone jumped into the life boats and started cutting the strings loose.

"BRUDER! BRUDER, OVER HERE!" I turned around relieved to see my whole family on the boat waving at me to quickly get on the boat. Since it was kind of cramped, with everyone pushing and running in different direction, I couldn't reach them, I was constantly pushed back and to the side. Suddenly there was another round of shaking, followed by the rushing of the sea waters, I knew if I didn't reach them in time, I might drown. Panic struck me as I tried to push my way through the retarded people.

"STOP CUTTING THE ROPE YOU BASTARD!" Elizaveta shouted at the guy who was cutting it and mumbling if they don't cut it, They will get drown together with the ship. No matter how many times Elizaveta hit his head with her frying pan, He wouldn't go unconscious. "Damn it! HURRY UP BRUDER!" Gilbert shouted, He reached out his hand, hurrying his brother to take it. He didn't want to lose his one and only sibling.

Just a little more.. A little more then I could be with them.. I reached my hand to grab Gilbert's hand, When I heard a snapping sound. What I grabbed in my hands were broken ropes. I looked down to see that the boat was already drifting away from me. "T-Too late.." Within a few minutes, the ship sank.

I tried swimming upwards, But no matter how much I tried, I kept going lower and lower. "I don't want to die.. I can't die yet.." It keeps on repeating over and over again in my head. I was afraid of dying..

It was then I felt something touching me, Am I going to die now? I closed my eyes, All I see is blackness now..

…..

…..

"Kesese! You lose west! So you should go get the ball!"Gilbert shouted at his brother.

A 6 year old Ludwig complained as he headed towards the rocky area where the ball had flown to.

As soon as he reached there, the ball was floating the water which was somehow drifting away,

He then jumped into the water using the underwater rocks as a "bridge" to get the ball, however, he didn't know that the water had already reached his shoulders since he was eager to get the ball.

Everything happened like a flash of lighting, He slipped off the rock and fell under the water.

"G-Gilbert! H-Help!" I shouted trying desperately gasping for air, but I was taken deeper into the sea. I was going deeper and deeper into the water, No matter how much I tried swimming upwards, I just couldn't.

Untill, I saw something coming towards me, I couldn't see who it was since my vision was starting to get blurred. I could feel something pulling me upwards.

My eyes were wide open once I'm above water holding onto a huge rock, Desperately sucking in for air. I heard someone giggling. Looking up, I came face to face with a…. M-Mermaid, I knew what it was because Francis had told me stories about humans with fish tail that are called mermaids.

"Y-You're a m-mermaid!" I choked on my words. I couldn't believe that I saw one.

"Where are you from?" She asked ignoring my previous comment. "I-I'm from Germany! A-Are you a mermaid?" I looked at her curiously.

"Vee~ Doitsu~! I am one~ You must be the weird creature Big brother Kiku told me about~" She giggled to herself. Out of nowhere a raven hair guy came out behind her and dragged her into the water.

"F-Feliciano-kun! W-What did I tell you about humans!" The raven hair guy started panicking and pulling her right behind him. "I-I'm sorry! P-Please forgive me for my rude act!" He then cautiously moved closer to me. I didn't know what he was saying until he reveal a rock in his hand.

Before I knew it, I could see stars and everything went black. The next thing I knew it, I was in the hospital, My mother sobbing beside me. "W-Why is everyone here? How did I got here?" I thought to myself, I didn't really remembered what happen to me…

~End of flashback~

"Doitsu… We meet again~"

To be continued….
