Ellis And The Boys Stand Up For Patrick

Leonardo arrives with his boys and sees Ellis and everyone sitting in the living room. Sensing the tension around he asks, "Is everything okay?"

"Leonardo, where were you all? After we came back you just disappeared, and the boys left." says Ellis worried

"Sorry Ellis, but we had to go. We got information, the castle's been attacked but when we went there, everything was OK and Lucifer said they didn't send any such message. Anyways, it was the legion vampires trick. We sent them to hell. But, now we're here, what's the matter?"

Denver says, "Patricia came and invited Ellis, Jane, Fallon and you to her kingdom. Patricia was seen beating Patrick. Ellis is waiting for Orlando to know if he can go underwater cause Fallon is a werewolf, he can't and you..."

"Celestial beings can survive on land, in water or in the air. And, we can give the ability to go underwater to anyone with a pure heart for a few hours, so it's possible but only if it's of utmost importance."

"Saving Patrick, is of utmost importance. We've only seen or heard three percent of the full story. We don't know what he's enduring behind our backs." says Clive

"OK then. Ellis when you say we'll take you there. I'll give you guys the ability to breathe underwater but remember five hours is all you have. When I say you have to come back up with me. I mean it."

"No problem brother, anyways it's only me, Jane and Ellis whom you need to give the ability to." says Fallon

Taking a deep breath Ellis says, "OK then let's send a message to the princess we are coming."

Sam goes to the rocks and waits for someone to come. After a while a mermaid comes out. Seeing Sam he says, "You're the ruler's friend. What brings you here?"

"I've come to give a message. Ellis has accepted princess Patricia's invitation and shall come to your kingdom with Jane, Leonardo and Fallon."

Excited, the mermaid says, "Oh that's great news. We'll make sure it's of the ruler's level. Our kingdom may not be large, but our hearts are big."

Smiling Sam says, "Then tomorrow afternoon they'll come here. I'll take leave now."

When Sam reaches home he tells the meeting is set for tomorrow afternoon. Leonardo says he'll get the boys ready and will meet at the rocks.

The next day at noon Ellis, Jane, Fallon, Leonardo and the boys reach the rocks. Then they see some movement in the water and soon five mermaids come out of the water. One comes on the rocks and transforms into man. He comes forward and says, "Sire it's a pleasure you gave us the opportunity to greet you into our small kingdom. But who are the other boys. I was only told to receive you, the queen, your friends, the werewolf and the celestial being."

Ellis replies saying, "I'm Ellis, she's Jane, you're future cosmic queen, he's Fallon and he's Leonardo, my friends. Leonardo is also the leader of my bodyguard force and they are members of my bodyguard force and my friends as well. Now, I don't think as the ruler I should go anywhere without my friends, I mean bodyguard force, right?"

Smiling, the mermaid says, "Of course Sire. Then please let me escort you."

Leonardo comes forward and takes hold of everyone's hand for a few seconds and says, "Please remember only five hours and to come back up when I say."

All agree and the five mermaids make a circle around them. Seeing this Leonardo signals his boys and they make a circle around Ellis, Jane, and Fallon and start walking. First the mermaid jumps in followed by Leonardo then Ellis, Jane, then two boys then Fallon and the rest of the boys followed by the rest four mermaids.

As they enter the water Ellis Jane and Fallon realise it's like they are breathing naturally and can see clearly. But all they can see is water, fishes swimming here and there and corals.

Then they see a bright light and enter a gate. Beyond the gate lies the kingdom of Mermaids. Beautiful corals full of rainbow colors. Mermaids swimming here and there. Small fishes swimming in harmony. Guard mermaids were all around them making sure everything was fine. Must then they see three more mermaids swim over to them and escort them towards a castle. As they enter the king comes forward and greets Ellis saying, "Sire it's our pleasure and honor to greet you our ruler to my humble kingdom. And, my lady (Patricia comes forward and kisses her hand) hope our hospitality is to your liking. If you have any issues please let Patricia know, she'll deal with it instantly. We don't know much about humans so we might end up serving wrong. (smiling Jane says, 'It's alright. You don't have to be so formal.') And, you must be Fallon and Leonardo. And they are?"

Ellis replies saying, "They are my bodyguard force and my friends. Leonardo is the leader of the force and my friend."

"oh, then we must take special care of them more than Fallon, as they are your protectors."

Somehow Ellis didn't feel good hearing this line.

Looking around Ellis asks, "Where's Patrick? I can't see him?"

The king gets amazed when Ellis asks for Patrick but since he can't end up scoring bad on Ellis's charts he calls for Patrick.

As Patrick comes out Ellis goes forward and hugs him (Patrick winces) asking, "Man where were you. ('you seem to know each other' says the king) Of course, Patrick is my friend. Knowing where he is? How is he? Is important to me. Plus my sister Sandra is waiting for you to come and stay for a few days. My father Edward has arranged for fresh water in the swimming pool so you can stay with ease. (looking at Patricia) I would call you but it's a boy's week out. So, when are you coming?"

Patrick looks towards the king to which the king replies, "Oh, of course whenever you say. But, before that I would like it if…"

Before the king could finish his line a few mermaid guards rush over and say, "Your highness please take Sire, the lady and his friends inside the slytherin have attacked. (looking at Patricia) ma'am please go inside."

"Sire, quickly please everyone come in." says the king. Just then the slytherin tries to attack Patricia so the king whacks Patrick with his tail and yells, "Save her."

Patrick falls but Fallon catches him. Seeing this Ellis gets angry so Leonard removes his sword and tells his boys "Let's put this slytherin where it belongs. "

Gaby pulls his sword out but Fallon stops him and says "Leonardo, we should let Patrick deal with the slytherin and if needed support him or else the king will get angry again.

Listening to what Fallon just said Ellis says "Guy's I agree with Fallon. Let's support Patrick if he needs our help."

Patrick thanks Ellis and the boys and removes his sword and goes to attack the slytherin. But since Patrick was already hurt from the king's beating he could not attack the slytherin and when Chris saw the Sloth is going to attack Jane, he says "Oh no you are not. Before you go and attack Jane, you've got to go through us." and strikes with his sword on its tail.

The slytherin starts screaming. Taking his chance Devon attacks the slytherin with his sword. But this slytherin had really tough skin. Seeing his boys were in danger Leonardo didn't take any chances and went forward and attacked the slytherin cutting it into two halves and asks "Is this the only one or more?"

A mermaid guard comes forward and says "No, it's always one and they come to capture the princess."

"Well the princess is fine. Ellis, Jane, boys, everyone OK. " Says Leonardo

All give a n OK nod.

Then the king comes forward and says to Ellis "sire, thanks for protecting my daughter. If you weren't here today, god knows what would have happened. And you Patrick, what got into you. How did you fail in saving the princess."

Patrick was about to say something but Ellis intervened saying "Your highness …"

"Oh no no Sire, please call me Raphael. I'm a humble servant of yours, nowhere near you."

Taking a deep breath Ellis says "Raphael, he did as much his body allowed him to do. If he wouldn't have been hurt, he'd have been able to beat that thing."

Leonardo steps forward and says "Ellis, we must leave. The time's up."

"OK, (looking at Patrick) you're coming with us. Raphael as I said before he's coming with me."

Knowing going against Ellis now with the boys here is no use, the king says yes and Leonardo escorts everyone back onto the rocks.

As they come out they are drenched. Patrick also comes out and transforms into a boy. Seeing Jane is wet Jewel swirls his finger and a gush of wind flows drying everyone down. Seeing Jane dry he says "Jane, are you OK now?"

Smiling Jane says "Of course, with you boys around I have no worries." and clings onto Ellis.

Then Ellis says to everyone "Let's go home. Patrick needs treatment."

Patrick says "Ellis, I don't know why you want me to stay over. The princess …"

"The princess should know how to protect her future husband but looks like she's no different. Patrick, when I befriend anyone, it's not just for the fun, it's for life. And, no one lives after hurting my friend. Your king and that princess are beating you and you have nothing to say about it." says Ellis
