Kaito had to do something. In his heart he knew that since he had first laid eyes on Lucia that he felt something strong for her, but he also loved his mermaid. As he walked home from the concert a young girl approached him. Her golden orbs sad, like she had been crying.

"What is wrong?" The girl sniffled. "Are you lost?" The girl nodded, her long, golden tresses bounced. "Where are you going?"

"To find my sister," the girl said with a sniffle. Kaito smiled. "She has blond hair in two long pigtails and she wears a pink locket in the shape of a shell." This shocked Kaito as he took a step back. She couldn't be referring to the girl that he had just watched on stage, though had not noticed a pink, shell shaped locket. Then his eyes opened wide. Lucia had a pink, shell shaped locket, but he was unsure of her siblings? Besides her older sister, did she have anymore? "Have you seen her?" the girl asked, her voice taking on an edge of impatience. He looked down at the girl in confusion, but blew it off as hearing things.

"I think I have. Let's go see if it is her, okay?" The girl nodded as she followed beside him, his warm hand enveloping her cool one. They headed back to Pearl Waters. He approached Nikora, who upon seeing him again glared. "This girl says that she is lost and that she is looking for her sister."

"What does that have to do with me?" she asked as she looked down into the girl's golden orbs. Suddenly she enveloped the girl in a hug. "Ohh, Yuuri! I was wondering where you were!" The girl smiled, but not a smile of happiness. This smile was that of triumph, but neither of the adults noticed. "Come on, let's go see Lucia."

"Can I see her?" Kaito asked as the pair headed for the door. Nikora looked back at him and with a shake of her head walked the girl into the back room. Something told Kaito that something was wrong with this picture, so instead of leaving he followed the two. Yuuri followed the woman that she suspected of being the Pink Mermaid's guardian. As they walked along they came to a room where three girls stood talking to a penguin.

'At last!' Yuuri thought to herself. 'And to add icing to the cake I have the last two, though Gakuto only seems interested in the Pink Princess.' With a mental shrug she entered the room, the four grew quiet at her presence.

"Who are you?" the blue haired girl inquired. Nikora giggled.

"This is Lucia's sister, Yuuri." Lucia frowned. She had never seen this little girl before. "Come on. Yuuri wants us to come with her." All three girls looked at Hippo in confusion, but before anyone could say anything a shock overcame their bodies. Just when Yuuri thought that she had them all Kaito ran into the room.

"Who are you!?" he asked as he ran to Lucia's prone form. He turned to glare at Yuuri. She smirked, evil oozing from her small form.

"I am Yuuri of the Dark Lovers!" With one flick of her wrists the room disappeared as Kaito lost consciousness.

"You have done well," Gakuto said as he looked down at the blond girl before him. Izuuru walked out from the darkness with a glare on her smooth features. "You could learn from her, Izuuru." This seemed to piss her off more, but she said nothing as she nodded. Gakuto stood up and headed for the room where all his new prisoners were being held. When he had gone two other girls appeared in the room, all glared at Yuuri.

"How could you, a little wisp of a girl get all of them?" Yuuri smiled at the older girl who wore a bandanna on her head whose yellow eyes flashed dangerously.

"Well, Eriru, I just happened to be smart like that." Another woman chuckled in the shadows as she walked out to greet the group, her cold voice crawling up the spines of the other three.

"I think it was just luck because you caught three extras that Gakuto will not want." The others realized that this was true. There was an extra mermaid that was not a princess along with a human boy and a penguin. Gakuto would probably dispose of the three because they were of no use to him. As they stood there Gakuto stood in the dungeon of his castle looking over his captives when one of particular interest caught his eye. It was his brother, a boy who had he had not seen in years since they had been separated at birth. He would recognize him though because they were almost exact replicas of each other. Yes, they were twins. He turned his attention the girl that lay next to his brother. It was the North Pacific Princess, the one that he wanted for his own. He reached out for the girl, but before he could touch her a yellow light sparked out and blasted him away from the girl. He looked down in time to see his brother tighten his grip on the girl. Then his brown eyes opened and looked up at him, the eyes were full of anger.

"Who are you?" he asked as he stood to face the silver haired man before him. Somehow this man looked familiar to him. Then Gakuto smirked.

"I am your brother." These simple words filled Kaito with confusion. "I am Gakuto, king of the Panthalassa clan and you are my brother, the discarded prince. I wonder why our parents decided to get rid of you?" These words were absorbed into Kaito's brain and his first impulse was to slug the man in front of him, which is what he did. As they fought Lucia woke up and upon seeing both men fighting sat up and yelled at them to stop. Though she did not understand what was going on she was not about to let her beloved get hurt. Both men turned to her.

"Oh my God!" she cried. "Kaito, he looks just like you!" Kaito looked at the girl before him. It was his mermaid, not Lucia that looked back at him. As if reading his thoughts Gakuto turned to him with a smirk.

"Hai, it is her. This is Lucia, your precious mermaid and human." Kaito stood shocked as his head put both of them side by side and then on top of each other. He could see it, but why hadn't she told him? "Oh, you're probably wondering why she deceived you..." he faded off as he turned his attention back to the princess. "She was forbidden to speak a word of it. Even then she tried to hint it to you." Just then her friends made their presence known.

"Lucia!" Hippo shrieked angrily. "You didn't!" Gakuto smirked.

"Oh, she did. She gave him hints so that she could be with him, but that will not happen," Gakuto said as he grabbed Lucia and disappeared. "She is mine!"

"LUCIA!" Kaito yelled as the room filled with a yellow light before all went black.
