The Fourth Mermaid
What if, there had always been four mermaids? What if it had been Gracie, Louise, Julia, and Amy? And what if now, it was Cleo, Emma, Rikki, and Meredith? What if Max made four lockets, there were four powers, and four different personalities? This is a group of one shots centered mostly on the fourth mermaid, Meredith. In some scenarios Meredith replaces the other mermaids, but everything ends the same. Warning: Meredith has a short temper like Rikki, but she doesn't just sneak up behind the person and take them down like Rikki, she just explodes, making her the most reactive mermaid. Rated T for a reason. *Hint: language. Hint*

I gasped as Charlotte ripped the necklace from my neck. She did she think she was? "This was my grandmothers," She hissed, "and now it's mine, just like it should have been." Oh no she didn't. She had no idea who she was messing with. I gaped at her, and she looked at me smugly. I suddenly lashed out with my foot and kicked the back of her knee. She gasped and fell to the ground. I popped up and snatched the necklace from her.
"Listen. You think you know what you're dealing with. You think you know how to handle everything, and that everything is gonna turn out alright. But you have no idea how wrong you are. You are risking you life, literally, every time you use your powers in public. You want to spend the rest of your life under a microscope? Be my guest. But, if you don't, then watch yourself there Charlotte, you might find yourself in a situation where you can't get out, and there will be no one to help you." I put the necklace back on and walked away.

Well? I know it's really short, but it's sort of just a test run. Please rate and review! ;)
