Cam's POV:
"Bree! Wait!" I exclaimed. I was running after her as fast as I could. Since she had super speed, you can probably guess how exhausted I was. Then she was out of sight. I couldn't find her anywhere.
I was near the Ocean Café so I went inside. I went up to the counter where David and Carly were working. "Have you guys seen Bree?" I asked. They pointed over to a table. I turned around and there was Bree sipping a smoothie and looking super depressed.
I walked over to her table silently and sat down. We were both quiet for a minute. Then I spoke up, "You know, after all I've been through the past year or so, this has been the least weird thing. I mean, finding out that your best friend is a fish is… strange."
She smiled. I could tell she was trying her hardest not to laugh. "There's that smile I adore," I said quietly. "I'm so sorry about all of this, Cam," She said. She looked like she was going to cry.
"What are you sorry for? You told us your darkest secret. You were all super brave. And the most trustworthy thing is, you're leaving your summer vacation to keep the secret. You guys are great friends," I told her.
"I just don't want to leave, Cam! This place makes me happy! You guys are amazing. This has been the greatest vacation I have ever been on. I don't want to leave!" Bree said. I was silent.
"You don't have to leave yet," I said. "What do you mean?" She asked wiping away her tears. "When are you guys leaving?" I asked. "First thing tomorrow morning," Bree replied.
I looked at my watch. "It's three o'clock in the afternoon," I said. "What does that have to do with anything?" She asked. "You still got about twenty hours until you guys have to leave. Why not enjoy it?" I replied.
We both smiled at each other and ran out the door. We spent almost the whole day doing things together. We went swimming, got ice cream, walked around, we did almost everything.
We were back at the Ocean Café again ordering dinner. "That was so much fun. Thanks, Cam. I really appreciate you cheering me up," Bree said with a smile. "No problem. I'm glad we got to spend time together."
"I'm gonna miss you," She whispered. I smiled, "Me too." I leaned over the table to kiss her and suddenly Leo came barging in. "Guys!" He exclaimed. I quickly sat back down. "What is it, Leo?" Bree asked. "I can't explain here. Come on!" Leo said.
Bree and I glanced at each other and followed Leo outside. "What's wrong now?" Bree asked as soon as we were outside. "A bunch of secret agents are here. The President sent them," Leo said quietly.
"Why is the President of the United States coming to Australia? Australia isn't controlled by him," I asked. "The agents said that they had put surveillance cameras in our hotel to check on us," Leo started. "Stalkers," Bree murmured.
"So why are they here? Did they see Adam break-dance or something and they're arresting him for his bad moves?" Bree asked sarcastically. "No! They heard us talking about you know who being you know what!" Leo exclaimed.
"Mermaids!?" I asked quietly. Leo nodded. "So what are we going to do?" Bree asked. "If it is true, they're going to take Zac and the girls away," Leo replied. "So how are we going to stop it?" I asked.
"Big D is trying to convince them they got it all wrong. Tomorrow they're going to test if it's true when the President gets here," Leo explained. "We gotta get to the hotel and figure something out," Bree told us.
"Grab on guys, I'm gonna super speed us home," She said. "Uh, is this safe?" I asked. "We do it all the time. Come on!" Leo assured me. I hooked arms with Bree and Leo did too. In a matter of seconds we were back at the hotel.
I got off dizzy. "That was… something," I said. We looked at the hotel and there were secret agents everywhere. "Come on, we have to get inside," Leo said. We followed him inside to the Davenport's hotel room.
We walked through the door. "Thank goodness you guys are okay!" Mrs. Davenport exclaimed. "Where are Zac and the girls?" I asked. "They're here too. The agents are asking them questions," Chase said.
"Then we heard Mr. Davenport talking on the phone, "Mr. President, you got it all wrong! We were planning on doing this movie thing. Where uh… three bionic superheroes discover that their friends are mermaids!"
Then I spotted Zac I ran over to him. "Is everything okay, mate?" I asked. "No, not really. They're getting their proof tomorrow. When they put water on us and we pop a tail, they're going to know we're mermaids and expose us," Zac replied whispering.
Mr. Davenport got off the phone. "We have all the information we need. We'll be back tomorrow for the final testing's, have a nice night," One of the agents said. He motioned to the other agents and they all exited the hotel.
As soon as they were gone Sirena started crying and Lyla and Nixie were silent. "The pod is never going to forgive us," Sirena whispered. "Maybe we should go somewhere else to talk… in private," Mr. Davenport suggested.
We went back once again to the Ocean Café. "Hey! You guys are back! Do you want anything?" David asked us. "Just a lot of coffee," Mr. Davenport said. David nodded and we got a long table.
"We're so sorry about this," Chase said as soon as David brought out the coffee. "Yeah, we didn't mean to have them find out that you guys are fish sticks," Adam told them. "It's not your fault. It's not anyone's fault," Zac said quietly.
"But you trusted us. And then this happened," Bree said. "It's not your fault," Lyla told her. There was a silence. "So what are we going to do?" Mr. Davenport asked. "We need to come up with something. We can't just give up," I said.
"We have to! There is no way that they won't see our tails tomorrow when they do the testing," Nixie said. There was another silence. Nixie was right, this was it. Then Chase's face lit up, "I have an idea."
