Cleo yawned as she sat up in here bed, she stretched her arms above her head.

She suddenly stopped moving. She didn't remember going to sleep as a matter of fact she remembered that Emma, Rikki and herself had gone after Samantha last night. The Crescent moon did something to her twin.

She remembered when she and the girls had caught up with her in the moonpool. They were held in place as the moon did something.

Cleo also remembered that the magic was very strong, but Sam didn't look like it affected her in the slightest. There was a huge flash of light before everything went dark. So how did they get back home?

Cleo jumped out of bed and ran towards Samantha's room. She opened her door and found Samantha sleeping.

"Samantha wake up!" Cleo whisper yelled as she jumped onto her twins bed, trying to be quiet as not to alert the rest of their family. She shook her twin trying to wake her up.

Small groan escaped Samantha as she tried to wake up from her magic induced sleep. She vaguely felt that someone was shaking her. With a tired move of her hand Samantha pushed Cleo off of her.

"Woah!" Cleo exclaimed quietly as she was pushed of the bed like she didn't weight nothing. She looked at her twin with wide eyes wondering how she could move her so easily. "Sam! Wake up!" She hissed, shaking her twin lightly.

"Wha-? Cleo?" Samantha blinked, trying to remember what happened yesterday. She remembered seeing the Crescent moon, then nothing. "I didn't hurt you did I?" Samantha whispered, fearing that she could have accidently hurt her twin or Emma and Rikki.

Shaking her head Cleo hugged Samantha. "No you didn't hurt us Sam. Do you remember anything?"

Samantha shook her head. Somehow she knew it wasn't time for others to know about Luna. "Can you call Emma and Rikki? We need to talk before going anywhere near water."

Both of the twins dressed up quickly, but quietly before leaving. They were going to gather in Lewis's secret fishing spot.

After reassuring Samantha that she had not hurt them both Rikki and Emma told the twins that they just woke up from their beds this morning. None of them had any idea how they got back home.

Samantha stared at the crashing waves from where the girls were sitting. "What I don't get is why I was the only one affected by the Crescent moon."

"I was wondering that too." Emma said turning to look at Sam. "Maybe it has something do with your tail? Remember that it is different than our."

"I'm just glad that I didn't hurt any of you." Samantha shivered at the thought. Having no memory of last night also made her feel uneasy and she hated it.

"Enough with the depressing stuff." Rikki huffed standing up. "Who's up for a swim?"

"I am." Was the answer that Rikki received from the other girls.

After they dove into the water and transformed they noticed something was different with their transformation. Especially their tails and tops.

"I think we need to call your boyfriends." Samantha said to Rikki, Emma and Cleo after she had signaled for them to surface. They of course were to shocked by the changes that they could only nod their heads in agreement.

After they had dryed off Cleo, Emma and Rikki called Lewis, Ash and Zane. They told them to meet them at the Moon Pool. All they said was that it was extremely important and they need to hurry.

Then they hung up and dove back into the water and headed towards Mako. More specifically the moonpool.

On the way Emma Rikki and Cleo had somehow gotten way ahead of Samantha and she almost swam right into a diver!

It scared her bad enough that she had somehow disappeared from sight.

The reason why she knew this was, because the diver was looking right at her and showed no signs of seeing her at all and she had accidently let out her air supply when she screamed. She then noticed that she could breath normally like she was breathing in air.

Samantha carefully swam away from the diver and when she was out of eyesight she became visible again.

How she knew this? She accidently scared a school of fish.

She then swam into the moonpool to meet the others. Was she the only one who can breathe underwater? So many questions and so little answer.

Lewis, Zane and Ash could only stare at the new tails the girls now got. They had just arrived at the moonpool.

Samantha's new tail color was now the purest snow white adorned with different colored gemstones and she also had some pure gold scales. Her top was similar to her tail.

Cleo's tail was now deep purple and her gemstones were sapphire blue and some of her scales were pure silver. Her top had also changed.

Rikki's tail color was dark red, so dark that it was almost black. Her gemstones were different shades of red. Some of her scales are now made of pearls. Her top now matched her tail.

Emma's new tail color was light blue, her gemstones ranged from light blue and icy white, as for some of her scales they were made out of diamonds. She also had a new top.

Samantha whistled to get everyone's attention. She told about how she almost crashed with a diver on her way here and how she just had vanished from sight and how she could breathe underwater.

Zane's p.o.v.

When Rikki called me and told me come to the Mako Island for a moment I feared that Dr Denman was back. But when I saw Lewis and Ash at the docks, both of them were as clueless as me.

"What do think is going on?" Ash asked us as we all climbed on Lewis's boat .

"Don't know, but Cleo sounded like she was in shock." Lewis said as he steered the boat as fast as he could without killing the motor.

I shook my head. "Let's hurry up. I don't want to invoke Samantha's wrath more than we have to. She scares the s*** out me sometimes. But I'll deny ever saying this if you ever tell anyone." I glared at Lewis and Ash for a good measure. I have a reputation to keep.

"My lips are sealed. 'Cause I feel the same." Lewis said just as we reached Mako.

"Same here dude." Ash said, before we all broke into run.

So here we are now looking at the girls and their new tails. Samantha took it to herself to explain what she remembered of last night. Others then explained what happened after the Crescent moon struck Samantha.

By the looks of Lewis's face he was finding all of this really hard to believe, but Ash only nodded. I bet he didn't catch even the half of this, but I'm sure Emma will remind him later.

Nobody's P.O.V

After Samantha explained what had happened to her on her way here everyone sat in stunned silence.

"Wait so you can now turn invisible and breath underwater?" Ash asked Samantha.

"Let's not forget she has gotten stronger... She almost flung me into a wall this morning when I went to wake her." Cleo said. She didn't want to be a wall pancake and from now on she would have to be extra careful if she had to wake her twin.

"Okay let's see if we got everything." Lewis stated, as he had pulled out a pad of paper and pen seemingly out of nowhere. "First off Samantha had a dream about what would happen during the Crescent moon and then she told Cleo about it. Who in turn tried to get Rikki and Emma to Mako so you guys could make a plan. "

A couple of nods from the two in question.

"But Rikki and Emma had homework to do." After getting 'Yup' and 'Yes' from both Emma and Rikki, he continued. "And then you (Cleo) called me and I too had homework to do. Then you left Samantha alone and came to help me."

"Yes I did but I also called Ash and Zane." Cleo said while looking at the two. "Ash said he was going to be gone for a few days and Zane said he was grounded, because of something Destiny did."

"Wait if they said those things why are they here?" Lewis asked, he was now confused. If Ash was supposed to be gone for 3 days and he had told her this yesterday, then he should be gone until tomorrow. And if Zane was grounded how was he here without getting into trouble?

Apparently Lewis weren't the only one confused as Both Zane and Ash were looking a little lost.

"Cleo what are you talking about? I wasn't grounded Destiny was. And besides I never got a call from you yesterday morning." Zane told them, he was officially lost, very much so.

"Yeah I never received a call from you either and I was home alone the entire day." Ash told her.

He didn't like how this was going, first they had to worry about the Full Moon. Because it messed with his girlfriend (Emma) and the other girl's (Cleo and Rikki), and turning her from the nice loving girl to a girl that said mean and rude things. Not to mention made her kiss that prick surfer Byron.

The only one who had yet to be under moon spell was Rikki, but that was before Samantha had shown up and became a mermaid.
Now they find out they have to worry about crescent moons as well as Full Moons? JUST GREAT!

At least the ugly burnt orange tail was gone.

"Hey I have a question, if this is how the crescent moon affected Samantha, how will the Full Moon affect her?" Cleo asked, she was now very worried. "I mean all of us have one power, but Samantha has 6 now... Not only can she control anything that has some water in it like me, but she can also freeze and boil anything with water in it, but now she can also turn invisible, has super strength and can breath underwater." Cleo looked close to be hysterical. "What if the full moon gives her more? What if she gets stuck in her mermaid form forever!"

"What would happen if someone pissed her off, she can turn invisible now..." Rikki muttered under her breath, no one else heard her but Zane, Lewis, and Ash.

The guys felt shivers run down their spines. If someone were ever to seriously p*** Samantha of then they wanted to far away. The bright side is that she is on their side.

Zane's p.o.v

Holy s***! Is there anything Samantha can't do? I better start keeping chocolate with me from now on since it seems to one of the few things that can calm her down.

By the way she has been awfully quiet this whole time.

I looked at Samantha, but she was staring down at the water so I couldn't see her face. Her hair was also hiding her face form us.

"You okay Sam? It's not like you to be this quiet." I said tentatively, still feeling the shivers run up and down my back. There was no way I was going to be the one the p*** her of. I value my life as much as I value Rikki.

"Yeah, I'm fine...it's just that, what if I accidently hurt one you? Cleo could have been hurt this morning just because I didn't know my own strength. What if when I hug Kim or Elliot I brake their ribs?" Her voice sounded like she was about to cry.

Samantha's p.o.v

"I'm sure that won't happen..." Emma started, but I cut her of.

"But what if does happen?! What then!? I could never forgive myself if I hurt someone I care about." After I finished I could feel tears start falling down my face, but the small 'blip blop blup' sound that followed made me open my eyes and look down.

There right on my lap were pearls... My tears just turned into pearls! What the hell! Do I have to look out everytime I cry or is this just when I'm a mermaid? I need to speak with Luna.

Dropping the pearls on the stone I dived. I heard Cleo call out my name telling me to come back, but I simply couldn't. Things are getting out of control so I need to sort things out myself before I can face others again.

I turned invisible as soon as I came out of the entrance to the moonpool. Soon after I saw Cleo, Emma and Rikki come out and start looking for me.

'I'm so sorry Cleo.' I thought as I made my way to the cave I found when I became a mermaid. I'm sure Luna can help, she has to. Who else could I turn to for advice?
