Josiah and the Mermaid
by Pirates Sparrow and Turner
Josiah sat fishing as he daydreamed about the reactions of the old women he would give the fish to. Surely they would cook a few for him since he caught them?
He suddenly felt a tremendous pull on his line. He jumped to his feet and pulled as hard as he could against the force on the other end of the line. Out of the water leaped a magnificent creature! She was half fish and half human. Her flame-red hair streamed out behind her. Her lovely green eyes enchanted him.
He leaped forward, his lips just inches from hers. There was a loud splash as he fell into the water. He thrashed about in the water.
Buck laughed at Josiah.
The End
