Hi guys, sorry I haven't updated in a week but I've been excited to upload this chapter! Thank you for reading my story so far. Please review! It helps me know where you want this story to go. Once again thanks and enjoy! Also XxMeggyxX yes this is set in S2 but charlotte has already come and gone. So basically it picks up on the last episode of season 2 and doesn't change to S3! And catlover10808 their powers do work on the zombies but take a couple minutes to take effect (1-3)
Rikki's POV:
I slowly turned the handle on my front door. I carefully stepped outside with Cleo and Emma following behind me. We carefully started to head towards the water, yes… almost there
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I screamed. A zombie was attacking me
"RIKKI" yelled Emma and Cleo almost in unison.
Emma stuck her hand out to freeze the walker. Nothing was happening yet. Cleo pulled out her hand and twisted it around, I also held mine up while kicking the zombie away from me. Suddenly we lifted the zombie in the air, just like with charlotte. It went flying away farther than it needed to keep us safe, but then again I could never be far enough from these things. The screaming had attracted more zombies. We made a quick flee for the open water. I felt the water rust past the tips of my fingers and down to my toes as I dived in. I transformed into my mermaid from. Instinctively all 3 of us head for Mako Island.
Cleo's POV:
I pulled myself up on top of the sand and I felt the warm shining sun drying me off. I looked to my right and left to see Emma and RIkki on either side. They had a desperately sad look on their face. I realized I must to, who wouldn't considering the conditions at the moment? I shook off the thought and tried to think about our chances if we stayed on Mako, mainly in the moonpool.
"It would be safer than anything out there" I reassured myself. A tingly feeling in the tip of my tail arose. It went up through my body ending at my head. My legs were back, I stood up and brushed off the sand.
"Well what would you guys think if we stayed here on Mako?" I offered. Emma swiveled her head around and looked at me.
"For tonight at least that seems like the best option" was Emma's feedback.
"I really don't think anywhere but here is safer, for now" Rikki concluded.
In unison my two best friends stood up and we formed a circle. We glanced back and forth at each other.
Cleo's POV 8:00 pm - 6 hours later.
We sat together in the moon pool when Rikki spoke up.
"Well, we ought to do something instead of just sitting here!" Voiced Rikki.
"Well" said Emma slowly "I suppose we could go catch some fish?"
"That's probably the best thing to do" I spoke up.
"Right, I will go collect some sticks from outside and when I get enough I will make us a fire" Decided Rikki
"Ok, we will see you back here in a bit" I told RIkki.
"Got it" was her simple reply.
Emma and I dove into the water and out of the moon pool to find some fish that were safe to eat! I spotted a fish that my dad told me was very safe to eat. He told me about lots of fish, because he's a fisherman of corse. I pointed Emma in the direction of a school of safe for eating fish passing by. We each grabbed 3 of the fish and held them tight so they wouldn't escape. I swam back to the moon pool entrance and went inside the moon pool.
Rikki's POV:
I went out to go get some fire wood, I didn't know my way around the entire island, just the parts near the underwater moon pool entrance and the overwater. I quickly gathered lots of long sticks, some thick some skinny and bendable. Next I grabbed a small log so the fire would be stronger. I ran back to the overwater entrance and went down into the moon pool. Walking back inside me saw Cleo and Emma with six fish in a pile.
"Great!" I said half-enthused. "I'll get the fire going." I set down the log and made a tent shape with the sticks around the log. I lifted my hand into position and lit the fire. My hand picked up 3 extra sticks I didn't use. I handed one to Emma and one to Cleo.
"Thanks" said Emma
"Awesome" Cleo responded seeming to be zoned out.
Each of us slid the stick through the fish and started to cook the fish over the fire. Suddenly I heard a someone coming down the moon pool entrance
"Cleo? Rikki? Emma?" He yelled. "You here?" He called with desperation in his voice
Ooooooooh! Clif-ish hanger! I wonder who "He" is…well I know, but if you want to know then come back for the next chapter which should be up soon! Please comment or PM me with any comments, suggestions, questions ext. Please leave a review! – H2o42
