The pirate ship lurks over the water as they throw their rubbish deep into the sea,

The pirates laugh at each other feeling chuffed that they have polluted the waters and about to catch some fish.

As the netting pulls up, the mermaids who weren't caught swam for years and years until they found a water cave which was hidden from the maps, and stayed there for a 1,000 years. As the pollution of their home is so horrific they cannot live there any longer.

A young man comes along with his elderly father and they enter the cave to come across 2 mermaids who were shaking in fear since they have never seen a mermaid and only read about them in books, mermaids were known as a mythical creature.

The mermaids explain of their ancestors past and tell them about polluted waters, the young boy reassures the mermaids times have changed and that they will help them.

New laws was brought into place, no fishing anywhere in the world and if you was caught throwing rubbish into the sea you would be jailed.
