Username: SilentMelody | Name: Pike | Gender: male

Pike considers himself to be dark. He's a siren with a catch - he doesn't just use his voice, but he also uses a guitar. It's not a traditional one since he made it himself out of large clams and tightly strung kelp. Even so, it still does the trick. He lives an evil life of luring mortals living on land to their death so he can feed on their souls. Pike has a large appetite, and he needs one soul a month.

There was a day that started seemingly normal for Pike. He swam out of the depths of his dark cove and towards the shore, plucking his handmade guitar. Lowly, he began humming.

A figure was on the beach and paused to listen. From far away, Pike couldn't see who they were or make out any aspects of them. Part of it was better that way. When he would take their soul, he wouldn't have any connection to them and he wouldn't feel guilty. Not that Pike ever did.

He opened his mouth and began singing, projecting his voice across the waves loud enough for the kalon to hear him. Slowly, he flicked his tail and brought himself closer to the shore so that they could see him. But that also caused them to come into focus.

A pretty kit, not yet an adult but too old to be a kid, turned to look at Pike. Her brown pelt glimmered in the sunlight as if the stars were embedded in her fur, and he had to look away before his eyes burned. He hissed and closed his eyes, swimming closer. Pike continued to sing and strum the kelp strings on his guitar, a ballad-like riff.

The girl began clapping. Instead of throwing herself into the ocean, she giggled and applauded him. She approached him and dipped her feet into the lapping waves, but she didn't go any closer. "Bravo!" the girl yelled.

Pike frowned and swam until he was on the shore with her, close enough to grab her by the ankles. But as soon as he got near her, a part of him was compelled to remain still and calm. "What are you?" he finally managed to ask and squinted up at her. Certainly, she wasn't like any normal kalon he had met before.

She grinned and crouched down to look at Pike closer, her dazzling pink eyes now clearly visible under her bright blonde hair. Her shadow shielded him, and his eyes adjusted to her colors. Now he could see that there were sparkles in her fur, but they weren't stars. Although vaguely, she answered, "I'm not from this world. But I don't think you are either, in some way. Living on land is much different than living in the ocean. Have you ever wondered about living in the stars?"

That was just the beginning.

I swear, one day I will take her soul, Pike promised himself as she walked away. From then on, she continued to return and listen to his songs, unfazed by his magic.
