Undine - part 1

A myth about the water nymph

If you think my story is only a fairy tale, you are wrong, you are completely wrong. People may say that i do not existed, I was only a myth, something that you can only imagine,but if you really want to know, I do existed. I meant, I did existed, not until I died because of love.

I was named Undine, I was not born like you humans, because I am not a human, I am a nymph, a water nymph, or, as you may say, a water spirit, a creature without a soul, who lives on our proper place. I was summoned from the water, the pure water.

We, water nymphs, appeared much more like a fairy, except that fairies lives on the ground. They have their tiny beautiful transparent wings which is used to fly among the trees. We live on the water, but not the sea. Only mermaids live on the sea. We only live on the forest pools or maybe the waterfall.

I was also well known as Undina and Ondine, but i still prefer to be named Undine. I am one of the most beautiful water nymphs among the others. I was summoned with a long hair, a long silky hair, my skin is the fairest of all and I got the best saphire eyes. many other nymphs envy my beauty, but I think many nymphs were more beautiful than me.

Sometimes, I loved to accessorized my self with a candle crown in my head. At dusk and dawn, i loved to go to the surface, I loved to illuminate the waterfall with my candle crown. And I always brought my harp with me, the harp which Neptune gave to me. The plants and the other water creature were always pleased to hear the sound of my music. And sometimes, me and the others loved to perform an ensemble. It was all full of joy and happiness

That was my world, full of pleasant things that I couldn't even describe it well enough. It was all perfect until one day, one twilight which almost turned to dusk, the sky was really really perfect. Clouds turned from orange to red and later turned to purple in the great blue sky. It was all a perfect harmony, completed with the tranquility around there, I was hovering in the surface, playing my harp and until out of a sudden, I heard something moving on the ground.

A sound of horseshoe was beating constantly. At first it was all a total blur, I couldn't hear it well. And it was about a moment later, the sound was coming towards me. For a while, i gazed at the forest, full with anxiety and the willing to know who or what is coming. Finally, a horse with it's saddle and his master came up. It was still a blur about their appearance. As my vision was a total blear, I only saw a knight. At first, the anxiety filled me with such terror that i went under the water again. For me, i thought it was better to stay away to human, as some said they were so hideous.

But, my will-to-know the look of the knight beat up my anxiety. I scurried to the back of a big rock, near the knight stand. And with a little bravery I took a peek from there. And as I saw them close enough, I saw the horse was taking a break and it was having a sip of water from the waterfall. And the knight, he was looking at the water and washing his face. As he stood up and looked to the beauty at the waterfall. I could see his face perfectly.

His face was the most handsome face I've ever saw. I could see it in his face that he was friendly, but yet he looked like he wouldn't give any mercy for the bad guys. His eyes was as sharp as the eagle. His eyes were as green as emerald. And his lips, only by looking at it, i knew he was a good kisser.

At that time, I felt as I was being cast under a spell. His great handsomeness had completely made me go day-dreaming. I couldn't get my eyes of him. His charm enchanted me with great pleasant seduction.

When I was awaken from his spell , I knew it that I am already crazed by him. I needed him. I wanted to be right by his side. I wanted to have him. I wanted to kiss him, to fell his touch, to conquer his mind, to make myself the only one he needs. And as a water fairy with great beauty, I know I could have him. I knew what I want and I knew he was going to be mine.
