Doing the first thing that came to mind, he whipped his tail forward, hitting the sea witch that had a hold on him square in the face before swimming off as fast as he could. He wasn't sure where he was going, but he had to get away.
He decided the smartest thing to do would be to swim up, if he got out of the water, he was further away from her, so he yanked off the shirt he'd been wearing, it would only slow him down, swimming as quickly as he could to the surface.
Once his head popped above the water, he heard it.
"Blaine!"
His head whipped around in an attempt to find where the voice was coming from.
"Blaine!"
He heard again, he knew that voice.
"We're coming to get you!"
It was Kurt.
He quickly spotted a rather large boat, instantly recognizing the people on it and swimming as fast as he could toward it.
Until he suddenly felt himself being yanked into the air upside down by his fin.
He looked up, there was nothing holding him there, so how on Earth...
That was when he spotted her, the sea witch, laughing that evil laugh of hers as she held her hand up, using her dark magic to hold Blaine just above the water.
"Let him go!" Kurt shouted as he leaned against the side of the boat.
"Sorry, but you had your chance, and you failed, so now, he belongs to me." She said wickedly.
"You can't do this!"
"Oh, I believe I can. Little Princey signed a contract. His soul is mine."
Blaine's eyes widened a bit.
"What's the matter, Blaine?" She asked darkly. "It was all part of our deal. You had a year to be human and fool around with these filthy creatures, and if you failed, I got your voice, and your soul. Did you honestly think that if you couldn't get him to fall in love with you that you'd just get your voice back, return home, and be on your way?"
Kurt blinked in shock. "What?" He whispered as Blaine continued to struggle.
"Nothing comes free, Prince Blaine, you failed, which means I own you. Your voice will help return my youth and beauty, and I'll use you as bait to trap your father. Soon the entire undersea kingdom will be mine, and all because you fell in love with a human."
Kurt could see the tears in Blaine's eyes. "Blaine..."
"You risked everything for someone who couldn't even love you back after an entire year of being together... was it worth it?"
"She's lying!" Blaine whipped his head around to look at Kurt. "She's wrong, Blaine... I do love you... I've been in love with you for a long time... if love was what would've kept you human, then you shouldn't be a merman right now."
"It wasn't enough to just love him, you had to prove it with a kiss."
Kurt looked at Blaine, who glared at the sea witch, moving his mouth as if he were trying to say something. "Well, of course I tricked you, I wouldn't have all this control over you if I had told you that you lose everything if you fail to win his love. Why would I tell you stupid little merfolk that I get your soul and total control over you if you don't succeed? Nobody would come to me if I did. I have to play dirty, and now, your voice, your legs, everything you hold dear will remain in here forever... it will all go towards making me young and beautiful again, and I finally get what I want." She said as she held up a necklace made entirely of sea shells.
Before Kurt was even totally aware of what was happening, Blaine reached over and grabbed the necklace, ripping it off her neck. The moment it was away from her, the invisible grip she had on Blaine disappeared and he fell back into the water.
"No! Come back here with that you little monster!" She shouted as Blaine swam to the boat.
As soon as Blaine got near them, Kurt, Finn, and Puck pulled Blaine onto the boat, watching as he held the necklace up above his head.
"No! Don't you dare!" She shouted.
"Smash it, Blaine! Do it!" Kurt said.
"Don't do it, Blaine! If you destroy that, you'll destroy everything!"
"You'll destroy her! Break it, Blaine!" Puck said.
"Would you really trust him on this? A boy who didn't even know creatures like you existed until a moment ago?"
"Don't listen to her, Blaine, she's trying to trick you! Just like she did before!" Kurt said.
"It's probably the source of all her magic, destroy it!" Mike added.
"The only thing in there is your voice, and your legs, if you break that necklace the only thing you're destroying is your chances at happiness. You'll lose it all." She said with an evil smirk. "Do you honestly think these people would still care about you if you stay the way you are now? You're giving up any hope of being with that boy if you destroy that necklace."
Blaine bit his lip and lowered his hand slightly.
"That's it, give it back to me..."
"No, Blaine, she's lying again... I love you. I do, and I will, no matter what. Whether you have a voice, or not, whether you have legs or a fin, I love you, nothing is going to change that... she's just trying to scare you. Please, Blaine... you have to know that I love you no matter what, even if I never get to hear you say it back... please... I love you, we all care about you..."
Blaine bit down on his lip before glaring at the sea witch and smashing the necklace as hard as he could against the floor of the boat.
"No!" She shrieked, Blaine did it again.
"You fool! Do you realize what you're doing?" She asked as Blaine hit it a third time, watching as it fell to pieces, a bright light flashing, the force of it so strong that Blaine flew back and knocked Kurt over.
He heard a horrible scream from the sea witch. When he looked back up, she was no where to be found.
She was gone.
