The next day Black Sea

5am the mattress is red and blanket is dark red and grey pink there is a horn having from a candle stick attach to the wall with bell high nearby the horn the bed is on top of drawers and small door that will open nearby the small door that will open is a dark pine tree chair table with candle and jewels above it is the two windows that has four window flames

Greta( Angelica) lying in bed, she has red blanket around her Greta breathes rapidly, she feeling that she got hit by car

Greta( Angelica)'s Foresight

A huge wick on rotating platform with a large mirror behind, the system fed by a series of pressure controlled pipes leading back to a very large tank, she saw Witty examines the view out one of the archways; a silver crescent moon rides above the blue horizon, Earthshine giving a glow to the moon's dark area.

The mood on the boat is somber; the pirates know the danger they face. Only Scrum is upbeat. Heads turn as the Lighthouse BLAZES to life in the distance.

Greta (Angelica) saw herself Greta (Angelica) hears singing

"My heart is pierced by Cupid, I disdain all glittering gold ..."
Gunner gestures, and various other Pirates join in

There is nothing can console me but my jolly sailor bold!"
One of the pirates, moved by the song, wipes away a tear –

Greta (Angelica) saw brightly-lit Longboat, a shining star in a watery sky.

"Come all you pretty fair maids, whoever you may be ..."
Some Pirates, despite themselves, are getting into the song:

Time has passed. Most of the pirates are slumped down, tired. Only Scrum keeps up the singing, low energy:

"While up aloft, in storm or gale, from me his absence mourn ..."
Philipy spots something in the water, sits up.
SCRUM (CONT'D)"And firmly pray, arrive the day, he home will safe return ..."
And then Scrum notices it too --
IN THE WATER, a small ripple. Nothing much, then it's gone.
Philipy and Scrum relax. But then Philipy 's eyes widen as he sees something over Scrum's shoulder. He can only point, Scrum turns slowly to look –

Greta (Angelica) saw mermaid she is smiling, just her upper body is out of the water as she leans on the edge of the longboat; she is naked, golden hair covering her bosom. Her eyes are sea-grey, her pale skin blue-tinted by the light of the moon PHILIPY said
Men, look! Look there!
Other pirates come awake and see the sight; their drawn swords glint in the moonlight. The Mermaid feints back.

SCRUM You're scaring her off!
EZEKIE LAye, and good riddance!
Scrum pushes Ezekiel away. The Mermaid hesitates, then ...showing her shoulders and back as she pulls herself out of the water. Exactly where her body meets the surface, she TRANSFORMS, from scales and fins to skin.
She stares at them innocently. Her tail swishes back and forth beneath the water Greta (Angelica) hears
Do you talk?

Greta (Angelica) watches Scrum and Mermaid she said

Are you the one who sings?.
The Mermaid smiles, radiant, utterly compelling.
MERMAID Are you my jolly sailor bold?
SCRUM Aye! That I be!
PHILIPY Scrum! Comport yourself!
Philipy and pirates pull Scrum back; he fights free of them he said

'there ain't much been given me in my brief, miserable life, there's the truth of it. But by God I'll have it said, Scrum had himself a kiss from a mermaid'

Greta (Angelica) watches Scum crawls toward the Mermaid. She smiles, and sings

My heart is pierced by Cupid, I disdain all glittering gold ..."
