Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them - J.K. Rowling

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them -- J K Rowling
I must say this book is extremely interesting...
I mean it has all the information about mythical creatures...
And, there's the part wher Harry, Ron and Hermione keeps writing in the book...
BTW, anyone knows what's the difference between imps, elves and fairies??

Sinking...

Sinking...
Slowly sinking into a sea...
With my eyes closed...
Enjoying the soft, peaceful sound of the water all around me...
My ears finally free of all those noise in the city...

Soon, I'll have to breathe...
Soon, I'll have to go up for more air...
I gasped for air...
Trying to break free of the thing that's pulling me down....
Struggling to float up...
Finally, I gave in...
Water filled up my mouth...
For a moment, everything was quiet...
Even the water around me...
I can feel myself breathing in and out...
It was a miracle...

I opened my eyes...
Knowing that this is my last chance to enjoy this wonderful sea...
I could see the blueish-green sea...
The light shining brightly above me...

Corals hid from me....
Whispering softly to one another behind those rocks...
Their hair floating in the water giving them away...
I waved at them...
Giving a friendly smile...

Fishes swam all around me...
Red, blue, yellow, and many more...
Their fins brushing against my hands and legs...
Tickling me to fits of laughter...

Pink shells lying on the seabed...
Starfish dancing with each other...
The beat of my heart following the sound of crabs' claws...
A pearl shining beautifully in the mouth of a huge shell...

A voice...
Ever so pure and beautiful...
A shape came swimming to me from a far...
The body and face of a beautiful woman...
Yet, the tail of a wonderful fish...

Her eyes were like crystals...
Mesmerizing me...
Never letting her sight of me...
Her voice as hypnotizing as a siren's...
Her soft hand touching my cheek...

So mesmerized that I didn't notice her transformation...
The only thing that remained the same is her crystal-like eyes...
For her skin grown rough and scaly...
Her hair no longer the smooth, blonde strands...
They were eels...
Electric eels...
Her long finger nails digging into my skin...
Leaving scratches on my cheek...

I dared not move...
I could see blood slowly drifting into the water...
Ignoring the pain...
She raised her hand to her lips...
Licking it with her toungue...
She smiled wickedly...
Showing her razor sharp fangs...

More and more of her companions surrounded me...
Snarling viciously...
I'd never thought that I'd be so scared of mythical creatures...
Those beautiful yet cruel creatures...
I tried to swim away...
But it's impossible to get away from their incredibly fast speed...

Corals tangled me with their hair...
Fishes now blowing trumpets...
What came out was not music but complaints...
Shells smacked me...
Crabs clawed me...
A starfish was stuck on my face...

I felt pain all over my body...
Perhaps those blood-sucking mermaids...
I could smell blood in the water...

I opened my eyes...
I'm trapped in one of those huge shells...
The beautiful pearl my companion...
My flesh all eaten by those monsters...
I'm all skin and bones now...
Only waiting for the day to come...
For an angel to come and take my soul away...
