The story is a little messy and you might not understand it, but the next chapter will explain everything!

As I swam to Mako I felt happier than ever. The fish, the reef, the soft glow of the crescent moon .. I heard a few dolphins clicking in the distance.I finally felt at home.

As I swam in the moon pool, I saw a tail. I didn't expect a mermaid in the moon pool, I hadn't seen the pod since I left. I would come back every day, but the pod was nowhere to see.

Above the surface in the moon pool I saw an unfamiliar face looking shocked. She gasped and shivered as she saw me, like she never saw a mermaid before. 'Uhm hi.. Have I seen you before?' I softly asked the girl.

'Uhm. I. You. Y-You're a mermaid..' she said. I didn't know much, but this mermaid wasn't from a pod. I asked anyways, just to be sure. 'Are you from a pod?' She looked at me not understanding what I said. 'What is a pod?' She wasn't from a pod, that was sure. What if she was a land girl? 'You, you weren't born like this right?' I asked, trying to comfort her a little with a soft voice. 'You were? ' she asked shocked.

'Yes, I am a real mermaid. I was born close to this island, in a pod. A group of mermaids. Like me and like.. you.' I tried to explain and understand what was happening. 'I-I don't know what to say. I don't know why I'm here, or why I have this tail. Who are you? Where even am I? An island? Mermaids really exist?' She asked completely overwhelmed and confused.

But I was even more confused.. She didn't even know why she was there. She didn't know she was at Mako. I tried answering all of her questions

' I'll introduce myself.. My name is Ava and I was born here. You're on Mako island, close to the Gold Coast. I have no idea why you have got a tail.. Do you remember how you got here?' The girl was thinking 'I- I don't know.. I was in my bedroom, in Sydney. I remember drinking water then going to bed. I suddenly felt power. A lot of power. I felt so powerful. Then it became blurry and next thing I knew is floating here with a tail.. Oh and my name is Allie by the way'

I was shocked. She must have teleported here, the moon must have done that to her. But that power was unused for hundreds of years.. Well, since I learned to control it. I had to ask someone.. someone who knew about magic and this kind of things.. But the pod's wasn't there.. Wait! Why didn't I think of her earlier.

'I want to take you to someone.. She knows a lot about mermaids and old magic and she'll be able to anwer all of your questions. Just follow me' I said. 'You mean, swimming? ' 'Yes, your tail is very strong and powerful, come on' 'Okay' she said. And with that we dove under and swam off to Rita's

That's it for this chapter! I hope you enjoyed reading it. Next chapter, where Ava will explain a lot about her character, will come online soon! Love, mimi
