It was a bright , sunny day on the Gold Coast. Waves crashed against the shore.
Cleo walked along the beach to calm her nerves. Today was the day she was going to tell
her family that she was a mermaid. I guess i'd better get it over with, she thought.
-Later that day-
Cleo's P.O.V.
After lunch, i asked Sam and Dad if we could talk in the living room(Kim was at a friend's house)
They did. Dad,Sam-i have something important to tell you. Of course, Dad said. Well Dad...You know when
me,Rikki,and Emma got stranded on Mako Island? Yes,said Dad. Emma couldn't get reception on her cellphone,so we headed up
the mountain. I fell into a rocky cave. Emma and Rikki came down after me. We were looking for a way out, and we found this...pool
in the middle of the volcano. Emma swam through to the ocean and then came back to tell us that there was a way out. We all were in the pool
when the full moon passed overhead. Then we swam out and got rescued by the Water Police. The next day we discovered that...well,i'll just show you.
I picked up my glass of water and spilled a drop on my arm. 10 , 9 , 8 , 7 , 6 , 5 , 4 , 3 , 2 , 1 , 0. My large tail apperead. They gasped. Oh,my! Sam
exclaimed. So a few years ago-when Kim thought you were a mermaid-you were? Dad asked, confuesd. Yes,Dad i answered. I then made all the water
fly off my body and into my glass. How did you do that? Sam asked. I have the power to move water with my mind and create wind. Wow ,Dad said.
Please keep my secret Dad & Sam-i would be studied for the rest of my life, I pleaded. Of course ,Dad said. Yes,Sam answered. Thank you guys so much for
understanding,i said with relief. I went up to my room and texted Rikki,Bella, and Emma. they r ok:) Emma responded right away: gr8:) Rikki asked: who's next?
Bella texted Rikki back: u rikki. Cleo: Gtg-see u ltr. I logged off and sat on my bed. Tomorrow was the day when Rikki would tell her Dad about them. 2 down,2 to go.
