Humans know nothing about the truth of sirens. We are not a form of your fantasy of "Mermaids", we live on land, on islands away from people, in fear that humans will find us. We do not lure people to their deaths, we simple sing to sing. It's in our nature to sing, when happy, sad, or simple to let each other know where we are. It is not our fault that humans find themselves captivated by our songs. It is their fault that their ships crash on our shores. But it doesn't take long until they find fault in us, and seek a form of revenge. I don't know if the humans tales of us being sea creatures comes from with their fascination of the endless depths of the sea, believing that creatures beyond comprehension reside there; or if it's the fact that angry sailors find their revenge in tying our feet together with a large boulder and throwing us into the ocean to end our lives with water-logged songs. Maybe it simple comes from what they tell people when they return home; that the sirens are in the ocean where they belong. I grew up knowing the truth, of the horror of the relation between sirens and humans. I also grew up knowing that a human hasn't come in contact with our kind in many years. We thought humans lost their fascination with us and our songs long ago; We thought wrong.

For as long as his memory data had recorded, system 000002 had been... a system. Upon functioning, the clearest recorded data was the serene face of his first host and his 'mental' space, which already contained input data with information regarding the tasks of himself, the hosts and their responsibilities combined. Through the course of time, he noticed the upgrades in his software whilst travelling through hundreds.. thousands.. no, perhaps millions of different worlds and dimensions. Updates would appear the further he travelled, yet system 000002 had never paid much attention, his mental gears dismissing the upgrades as tools to better aid in completion of missions. As such, many updates of this nature would often occur: [Cognition advancement.. 20% completion. ] .. [Emotional Intelligence.... 40% completion.] .. and so on. Thus, the little system had never suspected, until the day his soul materialised- that with each passing day, he was able to think more. Sense more. Feel more. Until one day he tasted what 'love' was. // Author's note: This is my first story LOL so please give me feedback/support/anything 🤙🏻 Will have bl/yaoi mature content in the future as I've long joined the forces of the dark side so be aware (not that I've ever written that type of content before y'know so bear with me, I'll try to make it good *wink wink*) [Illustration for this story was not drawn by me, all rights go to the original illustrator.]
