Inside some truck's trailer far from the beach, the man from the boat was drawing on a map to find exactly where Aquapolis was.
"Hmmm. If I could capture one of them, he or she should reveal where they live at" The man said, he got up to get an coffee, looking at the trophies of illegal acts he has done, he had like taken fangs from an vampire hanging on an necklace and an stuffed up Chupacabra.
"Dead or alive, these mermaids are gonna make me, Ivo Eggman Robotnik filthy rich! HOHOHOHOHOHO!" He laughed like an evil Santa Claus.

At Fiona's house, she was resting at her hammock when she saw an car drive up nearby. She got onto the wheelchair using her belly gem to hover into it and cover her fishtail with an blanket.
"Who's there?" Fiona asked. Then she saw no other than Tails coming at her.
"Hello there Fiona" Tails waved to her. "Hey Tailsy" Fiona greeted him.
"You're not gonna believe what Sonic told and showed me. His new girlfriend's a mermaid" Tails said.
"Oh, really that's great" Fiona acted surprised. Tails sat on the hammock to continue his story to her.
"Well trust me to not tell anyone else. Amy showed me some necklace so I could breathe underwater and if deep enough I'll turn into an mer-mobian as well" Tails said.
"Wow. I'd wish I could see that" Fiona said. But then Tails heard a near wet noise.
"What was that?" Tails asked.
"Just some seagulls nearby" Fiona lied but Tails didn't buy it. "Fiona, are you hiding something? Don't lie to me please" Tails demanded. Fiona gulps, knowing there's no point in hiding anymore.
"Okay Tails. There's something I have hidden from you for a while. You see I'm not actually crippled" Fiona confessed.
"If you're not crippled then can you walk?" He asked. "No, only with this gem" Fiona points at her bellybutton, there was an gem and when it glowed, Fiona levitated into the air. The blanket came off her revealing her scarlet red fish tail, Tails jaw dropped at the sight.
"Fiona?! You're an mermaid?!" Tails gasped and fell onto his butt on the balcony. Fiona shreds some tears, fearing Tails would get mad at her for lying to him.
"Yes. I'm so sorry for keeping this an secret" Fiona said. She looks away but Tails instead of getting mad cups her face with an smile.
"You're even prettier as an mermaid" Tails hugged her.
"Aw thank you Tails. Now that you know Amy and I are mermaids, we got more to talk about" Fiona said. The two foxes then shared an passionate kiss together, holding eachother by the waist and neck.
Soon they pulled apart for air. "I love you Fiona" "I love you too Tails" Fiona smiled. "No matter what you are, I'll always love you" Tails assured her. "Thank you for understanding Tails" Fiona said. They got into the ocean to have an swim together to explore the reef. Remembering what Amy said, Tails put the necklace on and dives into the deeper waters and his legs and twintails became a fishtail. "Wow! Cool!" Tails smiled and waved his fins. Fiona giggled and took his hand swimming through the reef with Tails. A large manta ray swimmed over them amazing Tails.
"Awesome"
"There's more to see Tailsy" Fiona said and they swimmed further in the reef, stopping at an moray eel's hole. They saw an green fat moral eel peek out and Tails carefully reached out to it.
"Don't worry, he's like an puppy" Fiona said. Tails nodded and pets the moray and it smiled at his gentle touch and he even gave it a slight belly rub. Fiona couldn't contain her giggles at the sight of this.
"Seems this moray loves you" Fiona giggled.
"Yeah it appears so" Tails stops rubbing the moray. They continued to swim in the reef and saw different kinds of fishes, crustaceans, some octopuses, mammals and even some sea turtles were around.
Suddenly Fiona stopped when she saw an boat at the surface.
"Um Tails, is that an ordinary fishing boat?" Fiona asked nervously.
"It appears so. So we better avoid the hooks" Tails saw some hooks with baits on. The two swam away and they got to safer areas.

At the beach, Amy and Sonic were sitting at the cliffs with Amy having her fishtail in the water while Sonic dipped his feet. They were watching the clouds on the sky.
"That cloud sure looks like an dolphin" Sonic pointed at one cloud.
"Yeah, and that one looks like an turtle" Amy pointed at another one. Sonic looked over and saw the turtle cloud.
"Cool"
"Mmhmm. Well it's fun spending time with you" Amy touches Sonic's cheek.
"Same here with you my sweet rose" Sonic said. Then he reaches into his quills and showed a seashell necklace.
"A new one?" Amy asked.
"Yeah. I make those when I'm bored" Sonic said, putting it on Amy's neck.
"It's beautiful. Thank you Sonic" Amy hugged Sonic.
"You're welcome Ames" Sonic hugs back and they shared an kiss. But from afar, Eggman was using some binoculars, seeing the two.
"Ah perfect, I got them on sight!" Eggman grinned. He puts the binoculars aside and drove the boat to the cliffs. Sonic noticed the boat coming and Amy freaks out and jumps into the water with him.
"AH! We can't let other people on the surface see me!" Amy cried.
"As long we're hidden we should be fine" Sonic said. But little they knew, Eggman had an catapult machine sending a submarine drone under water searching for them.
"Get an load of this!" Eggman gloated as the drone searched. Amy noticed a red glow from the sea bottom and saw a search light.
"A drone?! Quick we need to get out of here!" Sonic grabs Amy's hand and the swimmed away from the drone. The drone turns and spotted them, it's red eye glowed yellow beeping and it drove at an incredible speed, firing some kind of harpoons at the two.
"Watch out!" Amy dodged the harpoons with Sonic.
"Hehehehe! Good luck trying to get away from me! I can see you there!" Eggman watched the whole thing through an camera.
"Missed us! Whoosh! Ah ah ah!" Sonic taunted the drone. The drone then came at a faster speed at the two merhogs and fires two syringe harpoons at them. "It's coming right at us!" Amy screamed when the harpoons came at them. But it was too late, the harpoons has hit them and they were injected and blacked out.
