An idea I wanted to try out. If you want me to continue please let me know. I have a basic direction for the story but would love to here some other thoughts. This is my take of what would happen if it had made it past season 3 at lest what I would have liked to see happen.

Chapter one, Not This Again.

At The Moon pool

Bella and Cleo where sitting in the moon pool talking about what had happened the pervious night. "I wonder what happed to Rikki; do you think she is alright?" Bella had asked a little worried after all last night was a full moon and they where going to stay at Will's but just as the full moon came up Rikki said she had something to do and left. It took both Lewis and Will to convince the girls that Rikki would be fine and a few phone calls to Rikki all ending the same with Rikki saying that she was fine and not to worry.

"Well, Lewis and Will are out looking for her now so it should be fine. However, I am a little worried myself after all she did leave during the full moon so there is no telling what could have happened." Cleo told her just before Lewis and Will entered into the cave, the girls turned to see the two males as they walked over to the edge of the pool. "Well, did you find her is she alright?" Cleo asked hopeful of good news

Will prepared him self to tell them that no matter where they looked nobody had seen her and they couldn't find her but Lewis cut him off "You can ask her yourselves she is coming in now." He said making everybody relaxed a little.

Rikki swam over to join the girls along the edge "So what's everybody doing here?"

Cleo was the first one to speak "We where so worried, Lewis and Will where out looking for you, Bella and I came here to see if this is where you had ran off to last night and then stayed to see if you would show up. What happened?"

"Well that's what I wanted to talk to you GIRLS about." She said with a pointed look at the two males in the room. Once the bots had left the same why they came in she told the other two mermaids the story of what happened, well what she remembers and what Zane says happened. "Now I am in no way ready to forgive him for everything that happened but if he was willing to do all that for me do you think he is ready to get back into a relationship with me?"

"Well that's hard to say really, he helped this full moon but is he going to for the next full moon or any of them after and what about non full moon nights?" Cleo had to ask know that although true wasn't what her friend was looking for.

Thankfully Bella was able to step in with another view that was more what the girl was looking to hear "But he may have realized that he needs to change and this is just the start of what he is now going to be like. The time you two where together you where happy and now that your not its visible that you both are missing something. I'm not saying jump back in but maybe start to test the waters."

"Defiantly, test some water see if he is ready to have that relationship and but make sure he knows that the same ups and down will not work this time." Cleo added hoping that things would work out better this time

"Well" Rikki said "I do believe it is time for a swim, would anybody care to join me?" all three girls dove down in to the water and left the cave for a swim before returning to there life's on land

Later that day Rikki had wondered into the café that at one time she and Zane and owned and worked at together. The last she had heard of the place was that with the summer tourism that business had finally picked up and the café was now making money instead of just barley getting by. Finding an empty table Rikki sat down and ordered a smoothie from on of the waiters. Knowing that Zane and probably told the waiters that should she come in while he was in the office to make sure that he knew and as luck would have it that is just what happened. When Rikki saw somebody stop at the table she was at she looked up to see none other then Zane holding the smoothie she had just ordered. With a smile on his face he handed her the smoothie and took a set at the table hoping for a the chance he needed to talk with her. "So what brings you here? You're more then welcome to come by anytime you want but lately you have been avoiding this place like your life depended on it." Zane stated.

" I actually wanted to talk to you." Rikki replied taking a sip from her smoothie, "about last night and where that leaves us"

Zane seeing his opening took Rikki's hand as it lay on the table. "oh, well you know what I want. I now know what I did wrong and I don't plan on making the same mistakes twice once was enough I don't like how things turned out and I don't want it to come to that again. I hope that you will give me the chance I need to show you that I did change, that I do care and mostly that I love you. However what really matters is what you want and I am ready to accept anything you want, as long as I get a second chance. So what is it that you want?"

"As you know I went to talk to the girls and went for a swim. And I think that we may be able to do just that. Well the second chance thing even though this is more like a twentyish chance." Zane couldn't help but to smile it looked like he would finally be able to get what he wanted. "BUT," Rikki throw in before his ego could get to big "it would be a trial bases till I am sure that you really did and are all that you say and we wont be jumping back to how things where before but a slow fresh start."

"I promise you wont regret it." Zane said standing up and wrapping her in a hug and a kiss he was so happy to have her back in his life and was going to do everything to make sure he didn't mess up again after all there was no way he would be another chance after this
