Oceane
Chapter 1 - Meeting


In the middle of a dark night, in the middle of the ocean, a swarm of mysterious creatures with half-fish bodies were circling around a fishing boat. The melodious but also sinister humming sound penetrated the ears of the fishermen on the boat, as if being drugged with that melodious voice left them dazed and unaware that they were in danger.


"Hmmm~ hmm~ hmmm~"


No words were spoken from the lips of the mysterious creature, but their humming sound was able to sedate anyone who heard it.


After a while one of them wagged his tail until it split the boat. When the boat split, and the fishermen fell into the sea a swarm of mysterious creatures immediately attacked the fishermen. Instantly the sea water around them turned red due to mixed blood.


*


They are a group of sirens, mythological creatures that are almost similar to mermaids. Equally beautiful face and melodious voice. What distinguishes them is the nature and color of their tails. If the mermaid is meek and loving, then the siren is the opposite. They have a cruel, violent nature. They are bloodthirsty, and have no pity.


If the mermaid has a bright tail color such as pink, blue, orange, or a combination of these colors. While Sirens tend to have a dark tail color with very sharp fins.


*


The murder of ten fishermen at once by a group of sirens turned out to make the sea goddess wrath. The Sea Goddess had long tolerated the evil of sirens knowing it was their natural nature, but this time it was not. The Sea Goddess was wrathful because this time they had already passed.


JDARR!! JDARR!! Thunderous lightning snatched one by one the sirens that had contributed to attacking the ten fishermen just a moment ago.


"Die! Ii! Ii!"


They shouted unhappily, swimming here and there to escape the anger of the Sea Goddess. A bunch of sirens in the fog. Including a siren with the longest tail among the group and dark green shimmering, fins that are even sharper than a knife, and also a skull sign wearing a crown behind his ear, one of the sirens that has the cruelest nature, he who was wagging his tail to split the boat of the fishermen.


The five sirens that were with him attacked the fishermen had already died in the hands of the sea goddess. He's left alone.


JDARR!!


"Amachi!!"


And finally he was hit by the lightning released by the Sea Goddess. But he didn't die, he just fainted. His body was bobbing in the ocean following the direction of the waves.


On the other hand, a silent guy was staring towards the sea. The gaze depicts the astonished eyes. Seen around him bright no cloudy, even the moon and stars are clearly visible. But deep in the middle of the sea there, his eyes clearly saw the lightning that was snatching even when there was no cloud up there.


"What the fuck?" muttered the man, with a glare fixated on the lightning that was still striking in the middle of the sea.


"Woy Bi! Why lo? Logging in! It's midnight, you want to kidnap the devil?!" shouted a man of his age from a residential balcony.


Abian Rajakshaa, an eighteen-year-old boy who is on vacation tonight with his friends over his first semester break. Has a calm, friendly nature, but if you are angry at once he becomes very creepy.


The guy came in because it was late at night. Not to mention the rumors circulating among fishermen about the mythological creature siren that enough to make the feathers stand.


"What the hell are you doing outside this hour?" ask the guy who called her.


"Look at the sea." replied Abi as is.


"Njirr, are you serious? Out in the middle of the night to see the sea?"


"Hmm yes. Lo himself? Don't you usually come out in the middle of the night to see the moon?" asked Abi who was immediately greeted by laughter by his best friend.


Iqbal Devandra, one of Abi's best friends who is a man who likes the moon and stars. Have a cheerful nature and also flippant when talking. And also kind of gesrek his brain.


"Biarin, moon mah beautiful. Kayak neng Citra." said Iqbal.


Plaque!


"What does anjer have to do?! Milea is the same Dilan!"


"The actor is Iqbal." said Radit with his flat face.


"It's up to you and the anj's son." Iqbal finally relented from being sprayed again


Abi laughed a little at the behavior of his two friends. "Have it done, let's go to sleep. It's late." take Abi.


When everyone was fast asleep, but Abi still could not fall asleep. The boy looked at Iqbal and Radit who were already fast asleep. Unable to sleep, Abi got out of bed and walked to the balcony. His eyes were pointing towards the middle of the sea, the lightning was no longer grabbing anymore.


Honestly, he was very curious about the rumors spread among fishermen about Siren mythological creatures that he said always endanger the fishermen who came home late. That's why he ventured near the sea at midnight.


"The sea is calm." murmured Abi.


Suddenly someone called him from the balcony next door.


"Pig!"


Abi looked over and saw who was calling him. That's Rania Axellyn. One of Abi's female friends. Girl jolly, chatty, has the nature of kepo and also fierce.


"Lo hasn't slept?" ask Abi.


"Not yet, I can't sleep." replied Rania as she gazed towards the sea.


"See what?" Abi asked again.


"Not really, just curious. Lately you are interested in the sea. What's the matter?" rania asked back with a curious facial expression.


Abi shook his head. "Like the sea, nothing more" replied Abi. When Rania was about to ask another question, Abi interrupted first. "Sleep, it's night" Abi said and then immediately entered because he didn't want to be asked more.

Next day. Early in the morning, when the sun is coming up. Iqbal, Radit, Rania, and Citra go straight to the beach to find Abi. But, they were surprised by Abi who was holding a girl with a naked state. The girl's body was covered only in Abi's jacket.


"Anjer, what are you doing?!" tanya Iqbal with a face of severe shock saw her best friend holding a naked girl.


"Don't misunderstand me! I found this girl stranded on the beach!" abi said quickly so that his friends did not misunderstand.


"Such beautiful but pale, like she was all night bobbing in the sea" Citra said while stroking the cheek of the girl in Abi's sling.


"Bring to the inn alone, we treat his wounds there" said Rania who was immediately approved by everyone.


They immediately returned to the inn. Rania and Citra help the girl wear clothes and treat the wounds on her body.


"If he's from the sea, how can he get a burn?" rania was wondering.


"Have it, just treat it first. Later after he realized we can ask him directly." said Citra while treating burns on the girl's legs.


The image of Fanandira, the smart and brave girl. Always optimistic and never lying. All the words that came out of his lips were the truth even though it was a bitter truth he kept telling the truth. She was the girl who managed to seize the heart of Iqbal Devandra.
