A/N: First off, I want to ell you guys how thankful I am. All of you have been so supportive of this story, and it's only the first chapter! I can't tell you how much it means to me, and I am so happy with how many people have responded to this story, it's totally overwhelming.
In further news, because this story has been so well received, I have decided to make this a threeshot, so, without further ado, chapter 2...
Zac's POV
I immediately freak, and I completely forget about our disagreement from earlier. I quickly swim over to her and pull her into my arms. She's completely limp and ice cold, and she is even paler than this morning. This new information sends me into a frenzy. I tighten my grip on Mimmi and head for Rita's.
Rita's POV
"Help, someone help!" I hear Zac's panicked cries from the water entrance and I rush over to him. Zac is struggling to keep himself afloat with the. Weight of an unconscious Mimmi in his arms. "Get her inside, quickly." Ondina and Serena look up from a spell book they were going through. Ondina freaks out "Mimmi! What did you do to her!" She cries out as she runs over to the unconscious girl in Zac's arms. "Lay her down here." Zac puts her down on the sandstone ledge.
I check her pulse and her temperature. "She'll be okay. She has a small fever, but other than a bit of a headache from what knocked her out, she should be fine." Everyone is visibly relieved. "But it's probably for the best that I make some of that healing potion, just to speed up the recovery process. And that means that you three should go wait upstairs. The potion has a tendency to knock out everyone in its surrounding when it is being made, and we wouldn't want that." Zac, Ondina and Serena leave the grotto, and I set about making the potion, knowing full well that there is no chance of it knocking me out.
Mimmi's POV
I wake up and find myself lying down in Rita's grotto. "Uugh." I groan in pain as I register a huge headache. "Hello Mimmi, good to see that you've woken up." Rita says with a smile "here, drink this. It'll help with the headache." I take the potion off her hands, and drink it eagerly. The sharp pain at the back of my head is gone almost instantaneously. "Can I go see the others?" I ask." If you feel well enough, they are waiting for you upstairs." I nod and thank Rita, then I head up to the balcony.
"Hey" I announce myself to the small crowd looking out at the view. "Mimmi!" Ondina rushes over to me and gives me a huge hug. "It's good to see you up and alive." Serena says as she hugs me. That's when I see Zac. " I'm gonna go, I need some sleep." I say quickly and turn away. I practically run down the stairs. "Mimmi wait!" I hear Zac call, but I am not interested in talking to him. I jump into the water, and head for mako. I sit down under a palm tree, I get about 30 minutes to myself.
Zac walks up the beach. " I thought you'd be in the moonpool." "I told you to leave me alone." I move to stand up, but what Zac says next stops me in my tracks. "You might be right." I turn to look at him." After you left, I started thinking. I talked to my-the Blakely's, and it turns out I'm adopted. So, there is a chance it could be true." I'm drowned in fury, and I shake my head at him. "Could be true, could be?! By the moon Zac, the evidence is literally staring at you in the face, and you say it could be true?!" I shake my head again and run into the ocean. After about two minutes of aimless swimming, I pick a destination; I start toward the docks.
A little while later I'm walking along one of the docks, when two girls walk by me. One of them glances my way and then whispers something to the other, and then they both laugh. Then I hear "she's so weird." And they glance at me again.
That's it. I've been called weird and different my whole life because of where I'm from, and because of who my mother is, and these girls just pinched the wrong nerve. I turn and pull them both into the air, I silence their screams and drop them closer to the waters' surface. "Mimmi no! This isn't you!" I hear Zac say. I feel him put a soft hand on my shoulder. I bring the girls back down and they run off screaming. " Mimmi, we need answers, let's go talk to Rita."
A/N: and that's chapter two. If you guys have any suggestions for how the next chapter will play out, that would be phenomenal. Thank you so much for being so so supportive of my writing. More comin' at ya soon.
