(RP IDEA) Dracula's New Pet (TAKEN)

[NicholiDeSchidor]

Dracula's New Pet

 

Name: Arin

Age: 26 year old

Race: Mermain

Powers: Shapeshift (Human Form)

History: He had been a prince in a hidden land, Deep under the ocean's surface. The coral and pearl castle was something out of a dream. The way the ocean's surface managed to cascade down on the shiny wall's would make most fall into a trance. Well, for those that didn't live under the waters surface. They had no worry about that, their homeland was to far under for most diver's to reach.

 

But it was Arin who was the one that travelled further than most of his kind. Wanting to know thing's that were not of their small sanctuary. That is where he made his mistake. One day when he had broken the water's surface, He found himself in deep trouble. Having gotten himself caught in a fishing net that he had somehow managed to swim into.

 

Unknowning to him, in the human world. Their tail's were prized and very valuable. The scales alone were worth more than gold. Panicked, Arin found himself dragged on deck along with various other creatures of the sea. That was the last thing he remembered. Everything else had been a blur to him.

 

Appearance:

 

Seeking/Your Character Preference:

A vampire Seme. Kind hearted, but no push over. Intimidating, but has a soft spot for "pretty things".

 

The Plot:

A merman having gotten himself in more trouble than he originally thought finds himself in a pet shop. Even though he was the most valuble thing in the shop, he was only shown to certain customers. Year's he stayed in his small tank, unable to swim around to much. The tank just big enough to allow him to move, not uncomfortable for the most part. But he missed being able to swim, being able to move more freely. That is until a special customer is let in to view such a pretty, but miserable creature. (This roleplay is meant to be continued on to see where it will lead from here. Please dont expect this to be a one shot.)

My Starter Post:

The room dimly lit, so that most was hidden behind shadows. The owner of the shop had preferred it that way. Just in case anyone came snooping around in the back. When he had been out fishing, He mainly caught small fish to help keep some of the pet's fed. That was until he had managed to pull something up in his net's that he had not expected to see. Half human... with the tail of a fish! He had only heard stories of these kinds of creature, not believing them to be real. It had been the way that Arin's tail glistened in the sunlight and his fin seemed to quiver in shock. Coming to a thought, he wanted this marvellous thing in his store.

 

And that is where he had ended up later that day. In this small tank, only with one large rock to hide himself away if he so wished to. And there is where he normally stayed. Out of view, only coming out from his hiding place when he was being presented food. The shop owner wasn't a terrible person, but he did have a shop to run.

 

Arin kept his mouth shut, not even allowing the shop owner to know that he could speak the human's language. He wanted it that way, not wishing to grow to attached to the man. And after a while of learning that he was to be sold off to someone who could take better care of him. Only confirming his hunches of why he was in such a small tank. The man was no wiser about him, thinking him only as another lovely and exotic pet. But it was the years that past by, having only been seen by a few people. Most were scammers that tried to gain the boy out of greed, Not caring about the merman as anything more than some sort of thing to toss aside and kill.

 

Growing tired and weaker as time went on. The shop owner had noticed that life seemed to be draining from him. This was no place for him, and he couldn't let the poor boy die. Not with the beauty that he displayed.

 

A hand pressed against the class, tapping a few times. "Dont worry... I will find someone who can take care of you, and give you the freedom you need." The shop owner tried to comfort the poor creature. But tried as he did, more day's seemed to pass by as if there were no one to take him home. That was until one fateful day.

 

A strangled noise was drawn from him in his sleepy posture. There had been murmurs in the room that had pulled him out of his slumber. But wasn't the shop suposta be closed by now? Arin couldn't remember the shop being open this late at night. His tail had barely been poking out from behind the rock that he had hidden himself away. Twitching just once before he heard a soft tap to the glass of his tank. Drawing him more out of his sleep.

 

"The poor boy... He has been looking so lethargic lately. I didn't know anyone else who would want him-" He shop owner paused at his own words. "who would take care of him without wanting to kill him." He corrected himself. Tapping on the glass once more. "It's ok... you can come out." He cooed softly.

 

Arin's body flinched once more at the tapping. The noise echoing around him drew him more awake before he pulled his tail behind the rock. Taking a long moment before he lifted his head up over the top to take a look at what the shop owner wanted from him.

 

"There you are... I have brought someone that I want you to meet." The shop owner cooed once more. "Would you come out? I think you might find him a bit interesting." He smile warmly towards Arin.

 

Arin ducked a little more behind the rock, clinching his finger's at the rough surface for a moment before hiding himself away again. That was until he pushed himself out from behind it. The dim light's of the room made his scale's shimmer as he moved. His gaze moved to catch an odd glow within the shadows behind the shop owner.
