It was morning, time to go. Soon Heather and Oliver arrived at the reef, finding their old cave quickly. "Home sweet home" "Yeah, but the triplets were right" "About what?" "We are freaks, who were kept in a cage to protect others, and that we are no more that place fillers" Oliver and Heather sobbed thinking of all the things the triplets had yelled at them, "I never want to go back" "Never" the two stopped sobbing and opened a hidden passage only they could fit through, swimming down the long tunnel, they surfaced in side a wall of thick coral, the water was high enough for them to see the surface world, and the wall was high enough that predators couldnt get in. 

"The surface is so calm" "Yeah, and look! Birds!" a pelican landed on the coral wall, looking down at them. "Skraw?" "Hello sir" "Skraw skraw" "You look nice" "Skraw" the bird flew away. "Lucky, i want legs" "Yeah, tails are only good for swimming" the two dove back under, not before a scrawny pirate saw their tails flip above the surface. "Sirens! CAPTAIN STAN!" "Yes Soos?" "I found some Siren" "Skeleton Reef eh? Ready the dynamite" "Yes sir!" both hurried back to their ship.

When the two surfaced again, they were met with a face, a human face. "Hello, im Wendy, first-mate to Captin' Stan" "Pirates? But, i dont want to be tied to your ship!" "No, our captain just wants to talk to ye" "How, we cant walk, and we cant stay at the surface forever" "We prepared some special tanks to hold water for you, so the captain can speak to ye" the twins nodded, "But, why is their dynamite?" "We are gonna destroy this awful reef, it does no good" "But, this is our home" "Ye must be real tough to survive here, ill get the tanks and a crew mate, the Captain is gonna treat you to a feast with more food than you could imagine!" they were hungry, "Ok, Im Heather" "Im Oliver, but you can call me Oli" "Aye, ye both have fine names" with that, Wendy walked over to a rather large man, the proceeded to point to the twins.

"It sure was nice to invite us Captain" "Yeah! I cant even NAME half this stuff!" the old pirate nodded, then let out a chuckle. "Now, i have a question" "Yes" "I want ye to travel as part of the crew! You will have your own rooms and our mage can give ye legs!" "We could be human?" "Aye" both Sirens looked at each other. "We will think about it, we have four older siblings, if they arnt here at the reef by tomorrow evening, we will come, if they are, then we will gift you with under sea riches, things no human has ever seen" the captain nodded, "Fair deal, i have a brother, but my great nephew and great niece were tricked by a demon, they were turned into siren, i miss them so much" "We will look for them!" "Thank ye" after good byes, the two dove under, and swam back into the cave. 

"You two are in big trouble" Arthur was there, along with everyone else. "Why, the triplets said we were useless and that nobody liked or cared about us!" Arthur turned around. "Heh, well, we were mad..." "No, they could have been killed, or captured by humans! Humans would do much worse than kill them!" the two shivered, remembering the dynamite. "Guys, we need to go. now." "Why Dipper" "Captain Stan's ship is anchored here" the two sirens swam out and to the surface. 

"WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING?!" Dipper, Mabel, Bill, Arthur, and the triplets surfaced. "Hi Wendy!" "Back already, but how did ye get out of that hole?" "We have lived here our whole lives, we know things" the female pirate laughed, "Aye, the Captain said you two were lively, although, why stay a siren when our mage can turn ye human?" "Family, but we arnt so sure we still have four older siblings, right now, just one" Arthur surfaced. "Back away or ill kill you" "Arty, you touch her, your dead" "What?" "This is Wendy! possibly a future crew mate!" the red head laughed. 

"Wendy! The Captain says he found the twins!" "Really?!" "Yeah!" Wendy cried, "It has been years, i just want to hug them both" "Yeah, they were the life of the ship" "Oh, the Captains great niece and nephew? We were gonna look for them" "No need, we finally pin pointed them, the poor kids must be terrified!" the twins looked at each other, then dove down. "How did you know this ship was Stans?" "You met him?" "His first mate is right up there!" Dipper was fidgeting, "Pine Tree...you know what will happen if they catch you two" "I-I know Bill, but Stan is my great uncle, my family" "He is mine too!"

The two surfaced, "Dipper and Mabel, are only under water, here" "What!" Wendy threw off her coat and boots and dove in. The twins dove down too. "W-WENDY?!" Dipper swam back, startled. "Great, Red is here, this confirms it, im dead, and you two are human again, nice knowing ya" Bill had a sad smile, he swam down. Wendy had to surface, "Wendy?" "DIPPER!" the girl hugged him, "Everyone was so worried, all Stan has been doing is searching for you two!" "R-Really, no looting, no daring adventures?" "No, you two were priority" Dipper smiled, but then dove down, "Mabel, Stan has been looking for us, that is all he has done!" "What?" "We need to go back" "But, Bill and everyone else!" Dipper frowned. "I-I dont know what to do about that..." Heather surfaced, "Get Stan, i have a deal"

Dipper and Mabel surfaced, only to see Heather talking with Stan himself. "So, if i turn them all human, even the demon, you two will join too?" "Yes, me and my brother may be the youngest, but we are the most powerful siren in existence, but of course, we will be able to turn back at will?" "Yes" "Deal" the shook hands, "Ok, everyone stay in one spot" she dove down nodding.

"Everyone, stay in this group" "Why?" "Bill, your getting legs" "WAIT, WHAT?" "So is everyone else, but if you dont want to just go swim away" "You didnt have to do that" "Hm?" "But, thank you" Dipper smiled, Mabel gave her a bear hug. "What did you do?" "Im now part of Stan's crew, and Dipper and Mabel dont have to leave anyone they care about behind" Dipper joined the hug, he was crying. "Thank you, wait Stan isnt gonna kill him, right" "No, part of the deal was if he tried killing him, then all bets were off, and he would die" "Die?" "Eh, its a bluff" Dipper rolled his eyes, then grabbed Bill. "Pine Tree, you are the stupidest human ive ever met" "What?" "You didnt need to take me" "Of course i did" "Why?" "Bill, if you dont know the reason, you're the stupid one" the two giggled and hugged.

It had been two days since the transformation, "Cool, our scales make up some of our clothes!" "Yeah, i look awesome!" Oliver was showing off his amulet, Heather had one too, they let them morph. "Skraw!" "Hey! its you" Skraw!" the bird dropped a letter in her hands and left. "A Letter?" "Who is it from" Heather's eyes welled up, "Mom and Dad"
