-h2o-

A short film is playing in het juice net café about a little boy walking in big boots. After the film stopped playing, the group starts discussing what they are going to do to win this year's competition.

"If we are going to win this thing, we have got to be aware of the rules."

"It's a short film contest, we're making a short film, how hard can it be?"

"Last year they rejected an entry because it was seven seconds over three minutes."

Before Rikki could react, Wilfred drew once again everyone's attention.

"Alright moviemakers, this year's theme is heroes and courtesy of Zane's father, the very generous and wealthy doctor Harrison Bennett, this year's price money has doubled. And doctor Bennett himself is on the judging panel. Good luck."

Rikki goes over to fetch an entry form. She sees Zane sitting and can't help herself from saying something.

"So your dad is judging and sponsoring, wonder who is going to win."

"If your implying that you're an automatic loser, I'll second that."

She turns back around and Zane turns to Nate.

"I'll love getting under her skin."

"Oh yeah."

-h2o-

Rikki sits back down and sees Zane and Nate giving an high five, he smiles at her seducingly. She quickly turns her attention back to the others.

"Why does Zane's father get to judge?"

"Probably because he is putting in all the money."

"But..."

"Maybe because he is a genuine hero too? Look."

Cleo points to the windsurfer hanging above the bar.

"That's the wind surfer that Harrison Bennett used to ride to Mako Island. All around and back in record time, right Zane?"

Zane was getting an entry form.

"Yeah whatever, old news."

"The record still stands for twenty years."

"Yeah my dad, the big hero, blablabla."

"I had no idea your dad was a hero. You must have been a tremendous disappointment to him."

Rikki got sorry the moment her words came out, because Zane really looked hurt. He leaves the juice net café. The others don't notice Rikki's face.

"So if we are going to work together we are going to need to do some research."

"Done."

"Great, oh I just remember, I've got to be somewhere. Ciao."

"Rikki…" But she was already gone. "I really don't know what is up with her sometimes. So what do you got Cleo?"

"I've rented all the movies we need."

"Cleo, those movies aren't right."

"You wanted research, these are classics like Tracy and Hepburn, real romance."

"Alright, what about these?"

Emma shows them the films she rented.

"C'mon Emma, they don't have stories."

"These are real films with poetry and mood."

"But romance can be so sweet, right Lewis?"

Lewis immediately backs his girlfriend up.

"Everyone needs romance."

"Ohh, you're so cute." Cleo sits closer to him and Lewis starts kissing her deeply. But Cleo pulls away.

"Lewis there are people. You know I don't feel comfortable doing that when others can see us."

"Sorry."

"So who goes first, we can't watch them all tonight."

"Let's just be civilised about this, best of three scissors, paper, rock."

-h2o-

Rikki is running to catch up with Zane. "Zane, hold up." He keeps on walking, she catches up with him and pulls him back. "Hey." She notices that Zane is on the brake off tears.

"I don't want to talk right now."

He starts moving again, but Rikki stands in his way.

"Look about that in the café, I'm sorry, alright. I was to harsh."

"No, you were right, my dad shows it every day that I'm a disappointment."

"But you're not."

"You really think that?"

"Yeah, I do. I mean you have loads of qualities."

"Oh yeah, like what?"

"Well, let's see: you can be funny sometimes, you're also very stubborn and euhm… you're…euhm."

"You do think I'm useless, don't you?"

"No, it's…"

"Well, why don't you go and play with your little friends, I'll prove to you and everyone else that I'm as much a hero as my father."

"Zane, wait up."

Rikki wanted to get after him again, but a man bumped into her. "Hey watch it, wow." She noticed he was dressed in some superhero costume, black with a purple A on his chest. She started laughing. "And who might you be 'merry Andrew'?" He grabbed her neck and pulled her from the ground. "I was just laughing." Rikki managed to get out.

"Who are you?

"Rikki Chadwick."

"I'm the Aggressor and I don't like people making a fool out of me, do you understand Rikki Chadwick?"

Unable to speak she nods. He throws her into a bush and starts running so fast as the wind.

"Oh no, not that too."

-h2o-

Rikki comes into the juice net and sees Cleo and Emma are still sitting at the same place, they're discussing something, probably the contest.

"… You have an idea, already?"

"I think the film should be called 'my mother'."

Rikki sits herself down next to Cleo.

"Sounds like a thriller."

"Hero's aren't always pumped up super freaks who fly around and fight crime, Rikki."

"Too bad, because we need one. There is a supervillain in town."

"What do you mean, a demon?"

"No, I mean a villain like in comics and movies."

"I still don't get it."

"Let me explain it to you. I was chasing Zane when this guy bumped in to me. He wore a black leather suit with an A on it and a mask and he had superstrength and superspeed."

"I'm still not convinced."

"What do you mean when you say chasing Zane."

"That doesn't matter, but Emma I'm serious about this guy: black leather, a stupid mask, a name like the Agressor and superpowers, what else could he be?"

"Alright then, pretend I believe you, how are we going to fight him?"

"I have no idea."

-h2o-

Lewis is on his way to the girls, he has found something interesting to help the girls face the new bad. Unlucky for him, he ran into Zane.

"Hey Lewis."

"Hey what?"

"I know we didn't always see things eye to eye in the past."

"Whatever you want the answer is no."

"Let me break it down for you: I'll take my dad's original windsurfer, I re-enact his trip to Mako Island, I break his record and you film the whole thing."

"A re-enactment, so it's not even original?"

"It's a tribute. Like Hilary Sun climbing Everest. You'll be capturing a moment in history. Specially if I beat his record."

"Me doing you a favour? One problem, I don't like you."

"If we finish the film, my camera is yours."

"Zane, my very, very close friend, now we are talking."

-h2o-

The girls are walking over to Emma's, while Cleo is on the phone.

"We're heading to Emma's, why don't you get over when you're done with your research?... Alright see you then… Love you… No I love you more… That is not possible… No you hang up… Alright we'll hang up together. One, two, three… No, but you also didn't hang up."

Suddenly the Aggressor stands before them. "I'll hang up." He takes Cleo's phone out of her hands and throws it into a bush. "So, got any money for good old Aggressor?"

"No but we do got water."

Cleo makes a bubble water and throws it at him.

"Oh no, now I'm scared."

"Let's see who is laughing when we are done with you. Let's cool you down."

Emma starts freezing him, but the cold doesn't seem to bother him. "Silly little girls." He is so fast that he stands in one second behind Emma and Rikki. "Behind you." He pushes the girls and Rikki flies into some bushes and Emma comes in contact with a tree. "Now look who's left." He makes some steps towards Cleo when suddenly a couple comes behind the corner.

"Hey let those kids alone or I'll call the…"

The Aggressor immediately goes up to them and brakes the guy's neck before he can finish his sentence. The girls starts screaming and running, but he stops her and turns her around. He puts a lock of hair back into place.

"Hello gorgeous, what's your name?"

"Cindy."

"What a beautiful name. Well what's to expect from such a beautiful girl? I'm the Aggressor, but you can call ma A.G." She tries to get out of his grip. "Don't worry, I won't hurt you. What do you think about a date?" She faints. He picks her up in his arms, lovingly.

Rikki gets back to Cleo. "Let go off her."

"What can I say every king needs a queen."

And with that he races off.

"Great, now we got one dead guy and a kidnapped girl. What kind off mermaids are we?"

The girls run over to Emma who has a cut on her head but is coming by.

-h2o-

Lewis finally gets at Emma's and finds the girls eating chocolate at Emma's room.

"Here I am. What's wrong."

"We're failures."

"Well then I am right on time I see. What is the only thing that can defeat a supervilain?"

The girls look puzzled.

"No one. Alright then I'll tell you: a superhero."

"Great, but if you haven't noticed it, we're lacking those."

He shows the girls a bottle. "I found this on Ebay, It's supposed to conjure a superhero."

"How is that possible?"

"Well I thought if supervilains are real, the stories about them must also be real. One of those stories say that when you drink of this bottle, you'll conjure a superhero."

"Well, let's try it, because I'm not ready to lose another innocent."

Emma gets up and drinks from the bottle, followed by Rikki and Cleo.

"Alright, now what?"

"We wait."

Suddenly the girl's outfit's change. Cleo is now wearing a purple mini skirt and a purple top, Emma a blue dress and Rikki red pants and a red top. They all have black belts with a S on and black masks.

"What did just happen?"

"I don't know, but Cleo I must say I'm liking your new outfit."

"Really, thank you Lewis."

She comes over and gives him a passionate kiss. When she pulls away, Lewis is looking baffled.

"I thought you didn't like to that in public."

"Really, can't remember why."

"So girls, ready to kick some ass."

Lewis is confused by Emma's recklessness.

"Shouldn't we first make up a plan?"

"Why? I feel indestructible."

"Shh, I hear something. An innocent crying for help."

"What I don't hear anything?"

"Doesn't matter, I did, let's go."

"Guys it's very late already."

But the girls already race off.

-h2o-

The girls are standing outside a building.

"It's on the third floor."

"How do you…"

But Emma is already gone, quickly followed by the others. The girls appear with a rapid speed at the third floor where a guy is trying to steal a purse from an old lady. He pushes her to the ground and wants to make a run for it but Cleo stands in his way.

"Now that wasn't nice."

The guy pulls out a gun and threatens Cleo with it.

"Get out of my way."

"Or what?"

The guy pulls the trigger but the bullet doesn't penetrate Cleo, it just falls to the ground.

"Now that actually hurt a little bit."

She gives him a kick and he falls on the ground. The girls make a circle around him and start laughing.

"Alright you're going to listen very carefully to us. You're going to give the purse back and you are going to put yourself in at the police, okay?"

"Okay."

The guy gets up, lets the purse fall and runs off. The girls get over to the old lady and help her up.

"Thank you so much, but who are you?"

The girls smile at each other and Rikki is the one answering.

"We're the Saviours."

-h2o-

The girls run back outside.

"How did you know?"

"Know what?"

"That it was on the third floor?"

"I could see it."

"How?"

"Well Rikki has superhearing, I apparently have supersight."

"Great I'm the one having nothing extra."

"Hey you were the first to discover your mermaid power, now you'll be the last."

"Wait I smell something. Great, so you get extra hearing, you sightseeing and me, I can smell."

"What is it?"

"Fire."

-h2o-

The next morning, Lewis meets up with Zane on the beach. He is carrying his father's windsurfer, Lewis instantly goes to work. A few minutes later he is finished.

"Alright, now I made some slight modifications. This waterproof camera is going to send images directly back to me in the boat."

"Good, but I don't want the filming to slow me down."

"Yeah." He gives Zane a microphone. "Now put this on so we can stay in contact in case…"

"In case what?"

"Ohh, just in case anything goes wrong."

"Nothing is going to go wrong. I'm pumped. Let's do this." Zane gets into the water, but he sees Lewis is still on the sand. "C'mon Lewis, move it." Lewis gets his stuff and hurries himself into the boat.

-h2o-

The girls are also on the beach, but on another side.

"Still no sign of him."

"Wait, I hear something. I think I know where he is."

And with that, the girls are off again.

-h2o-

Back in the see, Zane is doing pretty good.

"How am I doing for time?"

"I hate to say it, but when you keep this speed up you'll probably beat your dad's record."

All of a sudden Lewis' boat broke down. "Great." He tries to get I back running. "C'mon, c'mon." and gives up. "Zane are you okay? I think I flooded the engine."

-h2o-

The girls have found the Aggressor's layer, they are standing outside, waiting for the opportune moment to enter.

"Do you see anything?"

"Cindy just entered, wearing a beautiful long black dress, although she looks very unhappy."

"Wait they are saying something."

Together Rikki and Emma tell Cleo what is happening.

The Aggressor comes towards Cindy. "I know you were going to shine in it. Let's dance." He twirls her and starts slowing with her. She doesn't react to anything he says. He turns around and starts kissing her but she doesn't react. "What no 'thank you', no sign of gratitude. Now that is not very nice. Maybe you need to learn a lesson." He pushes her to the ground.

-h2o-

Zane is almost finished. "Lewis, once I get around this point, it should be plain sailing." Right then something swims past him. "Wow what was that?" A shark bumps into Zane's board and he falls into the water. "Help shark." Lewis gets in action while Zane keeps on screaming for help. Luckily the engine does it again.

"I'm coming Zane."

-h2o-

"Let's enter."

Rikki suddenly hears Zane's screams. "I can't, I hear an innocent."

"Rikki wait…"

But Rikki is already off.

"We can't let Cindy down."

"It will be the power of two than."

The girls come in trough the ceiling. The Aggressor turns around.

"Nice to see you again."

"Who are you?"

"We're the Saviours and if there is one thing the Saviours can't stand than that is an Aggressor and you happen to be one."

"Do you girls really think you can beat me? Believe many have tried, none succeeded. Leave now before I get really angry with you."

The girls get ready to attack.

-h2o-

In the meantime, Rikki has already arrived at the water. She gets really worried when she keeps on hearing Zane scream. She jumps into the water and combines her mermaidspeed with her superherospeed. She is so fast that she doesn't even notice that her tail is red.

-h2o-

The aggressor comes towards the girls for an attack. But Emma stops him in the middle of his attack by putting her arm out and he falls to the ground. He immediately gets back up and still goes for Emma. She jumps over him and gives him a kick in his back. He flies towards Cleo and she is already waiting. She starts giving blows in his stomach in an unbelievable speed. He falls on his knees. "Ready to finish it?" Emma points to a stick that is sticking out a wall. Cleo and Emma each grab an arm and drag him over to the wall and put him on the stick. He screams and turns into wind. "Now that was fun." Suddenly their costumes disappear.

-h2o-

Rikki has reached Zane and gives a shark that is ready to attack a blow in the face. He backs away and Rikki gets ready to give another punch when she suddenly feels insecure. She looks down and sees she is again an ordinary mermaid. When a shark gets ready to attack she gets scarred and starts boiling the water. The shark backs away and she gets an idea. She starts boiling the water around her and Zane. When all the sharks are gone, she stops and swims away with a smile on her face.

-h2o-

The other two girls run over to Cindy.

"How can I thank you? You saved my life."

"Just don't tell anyone about what really happened."

"You can count on it."

-h2o-

When Lewis arrives at Mako the sharks are gone. Zane climbs in the boat.

"There were sharks everywhere, I thought I was a goner."

"Are you okay?... I don't see anything."

"Just get me out of here."

-h2o-

Back on Zane's father boat, the boys are watching the footage. Zane's dad comes in.

"Amazing."

"Not exactly the word I would use. I've been at the juice bar. Wilfred was about to go to the police."

"It's your windsurfer. Not his."

"Okay, maybe we should have asked first. But this footage is fantastic. It will be a great film."

"You can't do that."

"I sponsor that competition, do you think I want my son in public view looking like that?"

"There was a twenty foot shark out there dad. There were heaps of them."

"Did you see anything?"

"Well, euhm."

"I didn't think so. Zane created this charade because he knew he couldn't really break my record. Now get rid of that."

"Nononono, I shot that footage, that disc belongs to me. It's mine."

-h2o-

That evening everyone is in the juice net for the contest. Lewis has made the film of Zane look like a little fish attacks him. Rikki looks disgusted at the movie while everybody else laughs.

"Do you think that's funny?"

"I think the audience is the best judge Rikki."

"I was there Lewis. Who do you think scared away the sharks when they were about to eat him? Zane isn't acting."

The movie ends and Wilfred takes the microphone.

"So congratulations to you all for the effort. It's time to announce our winners. And the winner is: for the second year in a row, for a wonderful comedy, Lewis McCartney, 'Scared of the water'." Rikki gets out while Lewis gets his award, looking ashamed. "And winner off the gold star fish for best actor: even with his father upstanding from the vote, Zane Bennett."

Zane gets to the front and starts his speech.

"What can I say, I like to donate the price money to this establishment to compensate for any trouble I caused. And thanks for this award. But what can I say? The Bennetts are winners, right dad?"

He also gets out.

-h2o-

Zane is standing on the docks looking at his award, when Rikki comes up to him.

"You were good."

"Acting you mean?"

"No, the whole thing about you surfing to Mako and everything else. It took guts."

"You're the only one who thinks so."

"Yeah well."

"My father still thinks I'm loser. Can't really blame him."

"Do you think I would kiss losers?"

He looks confused at her. Without any hesitation, Rikki comes up to him and starts kissing him deeply. He doesn't react the first second but quickly recovers and pulls her closer to him, making the kiss more passionate.
