while collecting seashells, levy makes a new friend. in a rather unusual way.[mermaid au for mermay. first part of many.]

The water was halfway up her shins when Levy saw the dorsal fin.

It had been a long day of work—sitting some village children in the morning and then running around the shop for most of the afternoon. Levy had bid her parents goodbye before running off, eager to spend the last couple hours of sunlight doing her most favorite past time.

There were, after all, some positives in living just by the beach. (Even though the breeze could turn cold in times and they ended up with more bugs than most other places.) She'd run home from her parents' flower shop and then immediately headed out to the rocky shore just outside of their humble home.

For the hour and half of fun time she'd allowed herself, Levy had managed to fill half her bag with shells. Pride filled her chest every time she'd found a different piece in the water—some in soft cream, some in oily black—all unique. Some of the village kids had often called her strange for her fixation with the sea, but Levy could barely go through a day without the thick scent of saltwater and seaweed on her lungs, without the scrape of sand and wet stone against her soles.

And then she'd noticed the shark.

Sharks were not, exactly, a common occurrence at the reefs. They weren't particularly rare one either—sightings were known to happen at least once per week. Reef sharks were curious animals and often would wander close to the shore. There were many attractions for tourists in the area to go swimming with sharks. Back when she was little, a family friend had arranged Levy to go along one and she'd even managed to pet one. The people here, long used to their unusual neighbors, lacked some of the irrational fear inland people seemed to possess.

This particular shark, however, didn't seem to be exploring.

Levy bit her teeth as she slowly straightened up, sliding the last shell into her bag. The shore stood just to her right. 5 meters? 10, perhaps? She could run that for a second. But… it might be more. Without her glasses, she wasn't quite as able to perceive the distance.

And the shark… She couldn't pin it down. Oh, sure, the dark dorsal fin stuck like a sore thumb in the setting sun's blazing light. But what kind of shark was it? How far was it?

Could she outrun it?

Levy knelt down and dug her hand into the wet sand. Her fingers brushed something hard and smooth and she tried to take it. A gasp slipped from her lips at the sharp stinging sensation. When she pulled her hand out of the water, red dripped from her open palm.

Distress filled her mind and an uncharacteristically colorful line of curses fell from her mouth. Levy stood up, perhaps a bit too fast, and took a couple of shaky steps before she regained her balance. Her vision was swaying. She wasn't grossed out by the blood— she was a med student, for Heaven's sake—but the situation at hand terrified her. She tried to force out the violent memories of all those childhood encyclopedias about how sharks were able to smell blood from kilometers in the water, but they pushed against her walls. Her vision blurred at the edges, eyes locked on the dark dorsal fin in the distance. So Levy did the most logical thing her frantic mind could come up with.

She dropped her bag and ran.

Luck was definitely not on her side. Barely a few steps later she promptly stepped on another broken shell. Or perhaps the same one she'd cut her palm on. Burning pain shot up her leg and she cried out, doubling over into the water. The saltwater was stinging against her cuts and it made her eyes mist.

The waves splashed around her as she tried to regain her senses. The dark fin had moved closer and now she could see its colors—a band of white around the bottom of it that slowly darkened to the oily black tip. She couldn't move, couldn't think, couldn't breathe—

Then the water moved and the fin shifted and something big and dark began raising from the water where it has just stood.

Levy threw all sense through the window and ran in the opposite direction, screaming bloody murder.

The thing was calling her.

"Small human!" the thing yelled after her. "Don't go!"

Hallucinations. She was having hallucinations. She'd cut herself and got poisoned, or she'd inhaled too much water—

Something dark filled her vision and before she could react, Levy collided with a rock. The force of the impact made her lose her ground, her fingers feeling for the growing swell on her head.

It took a moment for her system to catch up, for her senses to take in her surroundings. A moment too much, it seemed. The soft sloshing of water announced the thing's arrival.

Levy turned her head around to face it.

After the initial shock wore off, she saw it was… a person. A weird person with gray skin and what looked like gills and fins and— Breathe, she commanded herself and squared her shoulders. Then she lifted her head and stared right into it.

"Hello" she said, her voice as calm and even as her terrified state could keep it.

"Hello" the creature copied her, as if speaking a foreign language.

The thing was, for the lack of other words, big. The upper part of it resembled a person—that is, if people had scales and gills. From the waist under, it looked more than a shark than anything else. A big and long and strong and most likely able to kill shark.

"You're a mermaid" Levy blurted out.

She was surely having a hallucination. Mermaids weren't real—mermaids were the dream of a small, lonely little girl with no friends and no other way to entertain herself beside old fairytale books. Mermaids were children's animations. Mermaids were not real.

The thing stared at her, dark eyes shining from under a curtain of dark, wet hair. It tilted its head to the side. Small rivets dripped down the lines of its body. A drop fell from the tip of its nose.

Levy found herself unable to move, her back pressed to the rough stone as if it could provide some protection. Despite the fear that she was probably going to die, despite her instincts screaming for her to run, she was rooted to the place. Levy was fixated.

"Mermaid" the creature repeated, as if the word was foreign to it. It probably was. "I… I think so?"

"You think so?" Levy asked. Laughter bubbled in her chest—at the absurdity of the situation or at the confusion written all over the creature's face, she couldn't say. "You look like a mermaid."

"I look like a—" The thing blinked in confusion and then shook its head, sending water everywhere. Levy made a face at the sudden cold against her damp skin. It extended one of its limbs—its arm—to her. Its fingers were gripping the strap of her bag. "Yours?"

Her… her bag. The creature was chasing her because she dropped her bag. The creature wanted to give her back her bag. The creature had probably watched her while she collected her shells and didn't want all her work to go to waste.

Levy started laughing.

Her lungs ached with the force of her laughter, her stomach spasming. The thing did not attack or threaten her. It probably did not know how to deal with hysterical girls. Poor thing. Levy leaned against the rock and lifted her head to meet the creature's—the mermaid's eyes. She had lost her fear somewhere along its confused expression and its calm gaze. She wasn't afraid. Not anymore.

After slinging her bag over her shoulder, she offered the mermaid her hand.

"My name is Levy. It's—" she giggled, "it's my pleasure to meet you. Excuse my… initial reaction."

The mermaid stared at her hand. In the soft light of the setting sun, Levy had to admit it looked beautiful, like a drawing out of her old childhood books.

"You're supposed to shake it" she told it when it just stood there, the top half of it half submerged into the chilling water. "And then you say your name."

The mermaid nodded slowly, then lifted its hand from the water and wrapped it around hers. Levy expected it to be cold, like fish were—instead, she felt a gentle, reassuring heat against her skin, smooth scales brushing her palm. Its hand was larger than her own, with longer, stronger fingers with silvery webs between them and small calluses. She could hardly believe she had been afraid—no creature with such gentle hold and such kind eyes could be dangerous to her.

"Gajeel" the mermaid said slowly, shaking her hand as it spoke. "It's my plea— plea—"

"Pleasure?" Levy suggested.

"It's my pleasure to meet you." It seemed very proud of itself. "Levy. Sounds pretty."

Despite everything, Levy giggled again. She brushed the hair from her face and gave the mermaid her best smile.

"Thank you. So does yours." She slipped back into the water with a small "plop". "Thank you for bringing my bag."

It seemed to have some trouble putting its thoughts into words. Levy winced in sympathy. Human languages were different enough from each other—she couldn't imagine how much harder it would be for a non-human creature to change its whole way of speaking.

"Sorry. For scaring you" it said after a while.

Levy hummed and carefully headed back to where she'd been collecting her seashells. When she didn't hear any movement behind her, she lifted her head.

"Are you coming?"

With what she was sure was a relieved expression, the mermaid swam after her. Levy smiled to herself. She'd just made a new friend. A new magical friend.

7 years old her would be so happy if she knew.

Hello to everyone once again! 🙂

‘Today i’ m going to share my experiences in wonderful city, Hikkaduwa, which is situated in the southern province of Sri Lanka, which is a sea-side sun resort.’

So, I started my journey with my partner-in-crime ( boyfriend 😉 ) whose  thumbs-up  to wander with me anywhere, and my beloved brother and his friend. We took a ride in Southern express highway starting from kahathuduwa entrance at Moratuwa to Kurundugahahetekma exit at Hikkaduwa. we got to see the beautiful nature around highway. We took just one hour and thirty minutes to reach Hikkaduwa. (Travel Tip! But I recommend you to take train to enjoy the beautiful coastal line through out the journey, even though it’s slower than highway drive.)

Now let me show you what’s special in city, Hikkaduwa.!

Image of the beauty of  ‘Hikkaduwa’ Beach

Hikkaduwa is a tourist and local attraction too. This location is mainly famous for coral diving, which is a coral sanctuary and a shelter to marine turtle and fish and sea board surfing. It’s must-visit place in the country.

Famous Hikkaduwa Beach festival (also known as Hikka Fest), which is usually a five-day event held between July /August. This festival is ideal for anyone who’s looking for an unforgettable experience. The sun-kissed beach of Hikkaduwa will be vibrant with DJs’ , dancers, and musicians. There will be something for everyone, starting from sand castle building, movie night to jazz festival. Catch a Hikka fest to have lot more fun! 😉 Hikka fest sure has better party scene, cheers, rock meet reggae.

Hikkaduwa Sea Turtle Hatchery

My first stop was at the turtle hatchery, the place where they conserve the turtles and make a home to baby turtles. There are numerous varieties of turtle species and all information about their life styles of survival. This place is managed by a family living in Hikkaduwa. This hatchery is a family-run conservation hatchery where they carry out maintenance through international foundations, fund raisers done through different projects, donations and entrance fee charged from visitors. For locals: LKR 100/= pp and for foreigners: LKR.500/= pp. You can even give donations for them voluntarily. This place is full of access to the lives of turtle species.

Image of the turtle Hatchery

Well, human colonization of the prestige shoreline, destruction of turtle habitats, and other treats of human like they sought turtles for meat, skin, eggs and shells are the major threat to these creatures by human. Collision of boats, fishing nets,and propellers are threat to theses creatures as well which cause their death. Due to these threat to these endangered species, initiation of conservation centers begun.

Image of the sandy area allocated for turtle hatching.

Just as you enter this place you will see a sandy area where they have buried turtle eggs to hatch, tagged with the breed. In here, eggs of turtles are collected or bought from local villagers and buried under sand hatchery. If there is a good direct sunlight, they hatch after 48 days. If no sunlight and during rainy seasons it might take up to 60 days.

Image of baby turtles in conservative tanks

Now you will see the most adorable bunch of baby turtles there. These turtles are conserved in different tanks separating them in to different kinds. Once these turtles become young , they are released to sea for their own survival.

Five species out of seven visits Sri Lanka’s coastal line to lay eggs. Most of the female turtles visit the shore. The male turtles in sanctuary are the ones saved from threats in the ocean. The five types of turtles available in the sanctuary are:

1. Loggerhead turtle 2. Hawksbill turtle 3. Green turtle 4. Leatherback turtle 5. Olive Ridley turtle

Image of a Logger-head Turtle holding the edge of the tank and learning to swim on his own.

This place is full of information about turtles. They allow you to pet baby turtles too. (Be cautious! when petting big turtles as they might harm you.)

Tsunami ‘Honganji Viharaya’ at ‘Paraliya’

Situated right opposite to the hikkaduwa turtle conservation center,  the Tsunami ‘Honganji’ Viharaya is a beautiful scenary. It’s is built in 26th December 2016, as a memorial to over 35,0000 people who got killed from Tsunami wave which came on 26th December 2014.

Image of the satute of Tsunami ‘Honganji Viharaya’ at ‘Paraliya’

This statue is a exact replica of the 5th Century of 175 feet height, ‘Barmiyan’ Buddha Statue destroyed by the Muslim Fundamentalists in Afghanistan. This replica was built using the earliest art of the statue. A pulp like material has been used to obtain the color and the texture of the statue. Ideal place for sight seeing.

Community Tsunami museum

Then we stopped and took ourselves through an emotional journey through the history of the 2004 tsunami at Community Tsunami Museum. This museum educates communities about the dangers of tsunamis, while commemorating the 2004 disaster that claimed so many lives.

Image of the Community Tsunami Museum

Entrace ticket fee is LKR 250. You will see photographs of the area after the tsunami, giving you a sense of how the disaster affected Sri Lanka, and how people banded together to repair the damage across the island. Read the stories of people who survived and get a sense of the true horrors of this tragedy.

National Coral Park

Here we come to the best experience in the city. Situated in the Hikkaduwa coastal line, National coral park is famous for coral diving and snorkeling as this place bears a huge coral reef. (Make sure not to step on coral reef as it damages and harm living creatures.) There are places where you can get snorkel kits and diving kits for hire. (Travel Tip! Easiest and cheapest way to enjoy coral watching is snorkeling. 😉 )

Image of the beauty of ‘Hikkaduwa’ under water, Corals and Fish!

You can even go on boat rides, where you can accommodate 6-8 people, for a reasonable price like LKR 3000/= for coral and fish watching.

These boats contain with a glass bottom for tourist to watch corals. (Travel Tip! Remember to wear safety jackets while on the boat ride.) During Southwest monsoon, from May to October, the visibility of corals is low. So I recommend you to visit this place during November to April, to see colorful corals when snorkeling. Because during May to October, entire coral reef gets covered with sand due to high tides and sand storms.

Hikkaduwa beach

Finally we visited public beach area in Hikkaduwa for sea and sun bathing. We were in “Citrus Hikkaduwa” hotel near coastal area where we were able to enjoy seashore while at our stay. (Travel tip! Grab a stay at Citrus Hikkaduwa hotel or Hikka Tranz hotel )

So, Are you ready to explore Hikkaduwa?
