Chapter 28.

(Zac POV)

It was the night of a Full Moon and I was going to be staying with Mel, for it. Of course, my parents said it was fine and so did Rita.

I woke up like I was having a bad dream, about the chamber on Mako. Man that was one bad dream. I got up and got finished getting dressed, as there was a knock on the door.

"Yeah," I said. Then the door opened and saw Mel coming in.

"Hey," Mel said.

"Hey," I said as Mel got over to me.

Then Mel just hugged me, "You ready for tonight," She said.

"No, I really want to have it back under control again," I said.

"Me too, Zac," Mel said. "The others are gone to talk to Evie, so they can try get her to push through the full moon,"

"So she won't get moon stuck again," I said.

"Yeah, Any way you ready," Mel said.

"Yeah, Just want to check with Evie, before we go do our thing," I said.

"Come on, then," Mel said.

And we headed out and was walking towards the Cafe, Where we knew Evie was going to be. The way there Mel was just at my side the whole way there. Damn I love Mel so much, this whole tail thing just brought us even closer together.

When we got to the cafe we saw Serena and Mimmi talking with Evie.

"I really want to be able to control this," Evie said.

"So they filled you in then," I said.

"How'd you know about it," Evie said.

"I was there while they were talking about it," Mel said.

"You shouldn't be alone tonight, Not after last time," Evie said.

"We already have that sorted, We just need to get his stuff," Mel said.

"See got it covered," I said.

"Zac, could you give me a min with Evie," Mel said.

"Okay, be outside," I said before I kissed her and headed outside. Just when I got outside I headed over to the railing waiting for Mel.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and I turn to see Mimmi.

"You saw something this morning, Didn't you? A vision," Mimmi said. "I saw it too, The connection's getting stronger,"

"It was just a dream," I said. "It's nothing,"

"You sure," Mimmi said.

"Yeah," I said.

"Okay," Mimmi said. "Be careful, just in case,"

"Plan on it," I said. Then Mimmi headed back in and Mel came out.

"What was that all about?" Mel said.

"Nothing, At least to worry about," I said. Then I grabbed her hand. "Come on, let's go for a swim,"

"Yeah, Come on," Mel said as we started to run and a place where no one was and made sure of it before jumping into the water and letting our tails form and sped off towards Mako.

Once we got there, we swam around our spot which was completely Fantastic, we must of spend a good 2 hours just swimming around before we surfaced.

"We must of been down there for a good 2 hours," I said.

"I know, But it was just so perfect, Come on we better get back to yours and get the stuff packed," Mel said and we went under again and sped off towards mine. Once we got there, we made sure that no one was there and pulled ourselves out of the water and dried off with our powers and went in and packed up some Clothes, my laptop, PS4 and controllers. Then we headed over to Mel's place.

Once we got there, we went to Mel's room which was already set up for tonight and we left the stuff there and setup the PS4 onto the TV.

"Mel, We need to go there tonight," I said.

"What, Why?" Mel said.

"I need to see that place while it is activate, with you there, you can keep me centred so I see the place for real, and Me not under the moon," I said.

"What about the others," Mel said.

"We tell them what we find out," I said.

"You not going to keep this a secret from them," Mel said.

"No," I said.

"Okay," Mel said. "We head after they left, but if anyone is still here, we need to go, Quiet,"

"I know," I said.

The Moon was about to rise and Mel and I was already in where the Moon Pool in the grotto, we saw only Ondina and Serena in the grotto. We got gently into the water quiet enough but quick enough to get in before our tails formed and we went under and Sped off to Mako.

Once we got to Mako, we pull ourselves onto the beach and and Dried off our tails and I got up and help Mel onto her feet.

"Thanks," Mel said.

"You ready," I said.

"I should be asking you that," Mel said grabbing my hand and we headed towards the Merman Chamber entrance.

Once we got there, the Entrance wasn't open yet then I felt the Moon again.

"Zac, Hey, Focus on me," Mel said. Turning my head towards her.

Then I focused completely on her, and next thing I knew the Moon spell, passed for now.

"It's okay, It's gone for now," I said.

"You sure?" Mel said.

"Yeah," I said before I kissed her.

Mel moaned into the kissed but it was cut short as the Chamber entrance opened. "Damn," She said.

"Come on," I said still got her hand in mine.

Then we went in. Once we got to the main room I saw everything start up how water was going around the Trident symbol. And in the center. I went over to the what looked like the Control matrix for it. Then I saw some sort of vision of the moon over the Trident symbol.

"Zac, you still with me, Baby," Mel said.

"Yeah, still here," I said.

"Give it a try," Mel said.

"Okay, be careful," I said and I went for the symbol that looked like the ocean. but after that I could get it to stay on like the others did.

"What is it?" Mel said.

"It's like a pin code, but it something I have no idea," I said.

"If we can find out how this place runs maybe we will know just how dangerous it is," Mel said.

"I know, But we going have to figure it out," I said then I took out my phone and took a photo of the Control Matrix Panel with the symbols, So did Mel.

"What now," Mel said.

"Keeping trying," I said. I kept trying different symbols but only 2 of them but then it was cut short as Erik came in.

"What are you doing here?" I said.

"Came to check this out," Erik said.

"Well you have," I said.

"Move your hand away now," A women said.

"Got some nerve saying that, Even if finding out just how dangerous this place is," I said.

"Who's she?" Erik said.

Mel stayed next to me.

"Veridia, Head of the Mermaid Council," Ondina said.

"What are you doing here, Why help him?" Ondina said to Mel.

"We need to know just how dangerous this place is, and know what it takes to stop it," Mel said.

"There is a way, and I will not say again, Step away right now," Veridia said raising her hand at me,

"Back the hell off, Bitch," Mel said getting in front of me.

"Why would you protect a merman," Veridia said.

"I knew him far better than you ever will, we been friends since we met," Mel said.

"What now?" Veridia said.

"He's my Boyfriend, and you want to hurt him you got to go through me," Mel said.

"You would risk your life for a Merman," Veridia said.

"No, I risk my life for the person I love," Mel said.

"Leave them alone, and get the hell away from my Daughter," Rita said already to face her.

"You made your choice long ago. You should have stayed in your grotto, With you Daughter," Veridia said.

"I won't, You know what I'm capable of Veridia. Top of the class, Remember? And that's my daughter's boyfriend your threatening," Rita said.

"Why would you care about him?" Veridia said.

"Because I see exactly how much they love each other better than what you ever could," Rita said.

"Do you realize what would happen if the son of Nerissa controls the power of this place?" Veridia said.

Mel grab hold of my hand.

"What is she on about?" I whispered to her.

"No idea, Zac," Mel said looking like she didn't know anything about what was being said.

Then Mimmi gasped. Then looked at me and back to her.

"What is she talking about? What does this have to do with my mother?"Mimmi said.

"Tell her, Veridia, She has the right to know," Rita said. Did she know from when she said about the visions.

"Tell me what?" Mimmi said.

"Nerissa had a son, a son who could share visions with her daughter. A Connection made possible only through blood, your that son, Zac, You've never been a land boy. You were always a merman," Rita said.

"Why did you never tell me?" Mel said. Grabbing hold of me tighter.

"I didn't know till now," Rita said.

"Why now? Why didn't you say anything before?" Mimmi said.

"I had to be certain, and now I am," Rita said.

"This changes nothing, it ends tonight," Veridia said. Raising her arm at me.

"Bitch, I said it once and this is the last time, Drop it," Mel said having her ready.

"I won't let you hurt him," Mimmi getting going next to Mel.

"Move aside," Veridia said.

"No," Mimmi said.

"Ondina, tell her not to be foolish," Veridia said. "Ondina!"

"I'm sorry, Veridia," Ondina said getting next to Mimmi.

"You know the price for disloyalty," Veridia said.

"I know what loyalty is," Ondina said.

Then the Viewer of the Moon disappeared.

"We got get out of here," Erik said.

"You have betrayed your kind, Even you Daughter of Rita," Veridia said.

"I glad to do it, For my Boyfriend, No matter if he is a merman or not," Mel said. still holding my hand.

"You are no longer a part of the pod," Veridia said. Then she left as did Ondina, Erik, and Rita.

"Zac, Come on," Mel said as we headed for the exit.

"Your my brother," Mimmi said but we just kept going and got out and then Mel started pulling towards the ocean.

"Zac, Come on, Let's get back," Mel said.

"Okay," I said. Then we headed for the Water and jumped in heading for Mel's place.

We got there and Mel got out and so did I. As did the others at when it just came to Dawn and we were in the Grotto.

"It's not possible, I've lived here my whole life, I have a mum and a dad," I said. With Mel still next to me.

"I know it's hard to accept, Zac," Rita said.

"How can I be a real merman? I have been swimming since I was a kid, How come I never got a tail until recently?" I said.

"Your Mother, Nerissa, she was the most powerful of mermaids, only she was capable of an spell strong enough to stop you getting a tail, that spell was broken the night you fell into the Moon pool," Rita said.

"Please, Zac, this is strange for me too, I've always felt like part of me was missing, but now we've found each other, Don't you think it's wonderful?" Mimmi said.

"Right now, I'm too tired to even think about this, So I heading," I said before letting go of Mel and Headed up to her room.

"I go to him," Mel said.

Once I was in Mel's room, I just sat down on the bed and then Mel came in and sat down next to me.

"Did you know?" I said.

"No, I didn't. I would have told you if I did," Mel said.

"Did you ever think something was more to it?" I said.

"The first time we had lessons together then I though it was only because you watched me do it," Mel said. "Zac, Come on, You need to sleep,"

"You sure, you want," I said before getting cut off by Mel kissing me.

"Yes, I do want you next to me, I meant what I said to Veridia, I love you, Even if you were born like this," Mel said. "Come on, let's get changed and got asleep,"

"Okay, I love you too, Mel," I said. Then We got up and Got changed and got into bed and Mel Snuggled tight against me.

"Zac," Mel said.

"Yeah," I said.

"What are you thinking about this? You going to talk to your parents?" Mel said.

"Yeah, I need to know," I said.

"What if you are," Mel said.

"Cross that if we come to it," I said.

"If it does, just let Mimmi in, Don't just leave it to us," Mel said.

"What you mean?" I said.

"If she is your sister, just let her in, don't block her out, I will always be here. I Love you no matter what way it goes, Just let her Connect if it's real," Mel said.

"I'll try," I said.

"Thanks," Mel said. "Hey, I love you,"

"Love you too, Mel," I said before we kissed til we need to break for air and layed back onto the bed and Mel Snuggled back against me and fell asleep.

What if she is right and it is the way they say it was, what if Mimmi is my sister. What do I do. I can't just forget about it and ignore her. Maybe Mel is right, I should let her in.

Then before I layed my head on the pillow and fell asleep.

That's is it for this Chapter.
