Tom Kaulitz was the richest boy in Germany.

At 17 he was known as a heart breaker and dated many girls.

His parents bought him whatever he wanted and they lived in a huge mansion by a lake.

Tom had an expensive guitar, an expensive car, and all of the video games that he wanted.

But he wasn't happy.

On the first day of summer vacation, he woke up and his butler came in.

"Tom, sir, the master would like to speak with you."

Tom rolled his eyes and went to his fathers' office.

"Yes, Gordon?"

Tom wasn't even allowed to call him dad, or his mother mom. They were always Gordon and Simone.

"Tom, Simone and I are going to London on a business trip. This is very important, and my job depends on it. Do you understand?"

He nodded.

"Yes, Gordon."

"Good. I would like you to stay here."

"By myself?"

"You are almost 18; I think that you can handle it. Besides, you will still have your butler, Charles, and the rest of the household staff."

"Yes sir."

Bill lived a much different life then that of Tom.

He had long black hair, radiant skin that seemed to glow, and sparkling eyes. There was something magical about this boy, something uncanny. Supernatural beauty, almost as if he was filled with magic.

Bill himself had a very wealthy father.

King, actually.

Yes, Bill was a prince. But not of a kingdom that many people know of. This is a place that few of us have seen, even in dreams. A sparkling palace of ice under the surface of all human life.

Yes...Bill was a mermaid. Merman, to be exact, but he didn't act like one...

Bill loved to swim up to the surface, which was forbidden, and look at human life. It was so fascinating to him...

Across the lake where he lived was a huge mansion, and it seemed to sparkle at night when all of the lights were on.

Bill longed to walk ashore and see the mansion, to see human life in general.
It seemed so much different...

Bills' maid came into his bedroom.

"The king would like to see you, your highness."

Bill sighed and swam to his fathers' office.

"Yes, father?"

"Bill, do you have a girlfriend yet?"

"No, sir." Bill, embarrassed, looked down at his feet.

"Look me in the eye! Do you know how important it is for you to marry soon? Who will take over the kingdom when I'm gone? You need a queen!"

It was well known that his father was sick.

"But father... oh, never mind!"

"What is it that you would like to say?"

"Well... what if I don't want to rule?"

Bill could tell that his father was angry now.

"Well, that's nonsense! You are the only heir to the throne, and I will not have you being childish!"

"I'm sorry, sir."

"You very well should be! The future of Aquawell is in your hands."

Should be called AquaHELL, Bill thought.

He hated his life.

He longed to see the world above the water. And he knew that somehow he had to find a way.

A song that I thought fit this chapter:

As you might know, my father was a rich man,
his father was rich, I'm gonna be a rich man too, oh yeah!
Right now my job is to have fun, buy whatever I want,
just be with my girl, it's such fun, you know?

I guess you don't 'cos your daddy ain't driving a Rolls Royce,
and your family ain't famous after all.
I flush my money down the toilet, if it is the best choice.
Nothing is my problem, see?

I don't have to pay my bills, right?
I don't have to get a job.
I don't have to train my skills, right?
'Cos I will never be poor.

What would you do, if you had my money?
You wouldn't go to school, you wouldn't get a job, like me.
You'd just hang around.
You would go to the parties where all rich people meet,
where people are having fun.
Yeah, such fun, you know.

I guess you don't 'cos your daddy ain't driving a Rolls Royce,
n' your family ain't famous after all.
I flush my money down the toilet, if it is the best choice.
Nothing is my problem, see?

I don't have to pay my bills, right?
I don't have to get a job.
I don't have to train my skills, right?
'Cos I will never be poor.
