CHAPTER 1

A mermaid was walking around the cave at Mako Island. She was on the phone with her friend, Hannah.

"You promised you wouldn't do that!" Hannah yelled at her.

"I told you, my dad said I had to come home!" Alice protested.

"It's always dad this and dad that why can't you just tell me the truth!" Hannah shouted.

"You wouldn't understand!" Alice said.

"Well while your trying to figure out a better lie don't bother coming near me!"And with that Hannah hung up the phone. Alice slapped her phone shut.

"Stupid Hannah! Stupid Mako, I hate being a mermaid!" Alice yelled and dove in the pool.

Alice was walking down the beach side. She sighed and decided to sit on a rock. She looked out across the ocean to Mako Island. Her eyes landed on a shape at Mako. A boat. Hannah's Boat!

What does Hannah want with Mako? She thought.

The next day Alice was relaxing in the pool at Mako. Suddenly she heard a voice.

"It's a cave!" The first voice said.

"We dont know where it leads, Hannah, time to go back." the second voice said.

"Oh all right, Madison" Hannah said. She heard the shuffle of feet and them leaving.

Alive was really wondering what was going on now.
