Chase's POV:
They threw water all over us! I wiped the water out of my eyes. "What the heck was that for!?" I exclaimed. "They should have turned by now," Zac said. "Maybe we did it wrong," Sirena suggested.
"What's there to do? They should have turned by now!" Nixie told her. "I don't get it though; they fell in the moon pool on a full moon. They should have a tail!" Lyla exclaimed.
"We uh… might know why," Leo said softly. "Leo, no!" Mr. Davenport exclaimed. "I think you guys should tell us. We told you guys we were mermaids, it's time you guys start talking," Nixie said crossing her arms.
"Please don't be something weird, please don't be something weird," Cam said under his breath. "Mr. Davenport, they trust us with their secret, we need to trust them with ours," I told him.
"Yeah! Besides, the whole world basically knows who we are," Leo reminded him. "Only the United States! No one else!" Mr. Davenport exclaimed. "We can trust them," Bree assured him. "Yeah! The fish sticks deserve to know," Adam said.
Did he seriously just call them fish sticks? Mr. Davenport sighed, "Alright. Tell them." "So who's gonna tell them?" Bree asked. "Not it!" Leo and Adam said putting their fingers on their noses.
"Just tell us already!" Zac exclaimed. "We're bionic," I said quickly. "What does that even mean?" Lyla asked. "We're bionic superhumans," Bree told them. "What does that mean!?" Cam asked.
"We have these really cool powers. Chase is super smart, I am super fast, and Adam is super strong. We have other abilities like Chase has molecular kinesis which makes him move things with his mind, I have vocal manipulation, and Adam has a blast wave to name a few," Bree exclaimed.
"Don't forget about me! I'm half bionic. I have a bionic arm and a bionic leg," Leo told them. Then we did this big explanation about how our bionics work, how we got them, the Bionic Academy, everything. Just like how they explained how they were mermaids.
"So, why would that cause you guys not to turn into merpeople?" Cam asked. "We're not real people. I guess that's a big reason," I replied. "Well I guess that explains a few things," Sirena said as she put her hands in her pockets.
"So what do we do now?" Adam asked.
"You guys have to pretend this never happened. We'll all go back to our lives and pretend that you guys don't exist and you'll pretend we don't exist," Nixie explained. I shook my head, "I don't want to."
"Me too!" Cam exclaimed. "Same here," Leo and Bree said as well. "Me one hundred!" Adam said. "Us too," Sirena, Lyla, and Zac added. "We have no choice!"Nixie told us.
"What do you mean? It's not like we are putting each other in danger," Sirena said. "Anything could happen! What if you guys go back and a bunch of people are wondering what you did your whole vacation? Oh, you know we fell into a moon pool, we were saved by mermaids, and then it was all cool?" Nixie asked.
I sighed. She was right. "Then we need to leave," Mr. Davenport said quietly. "Leave? But we have one week left!" Bree exclaimed. "We got no choice! I would hate it if anyone found out you guys were merpeople," Mr. Davenport said.
"I'll start packing," Tasha said. She left the kitchen and went into her room. Bree ran out of the hotel room. "I'll go talk to her," Cam said. He opened the door and ran outside.
"We'll leave you to it," Lyla said softly. Zac, Lyla, Nixie, and Sirena turned to leave. Nixie looked back at me. Maybe she was disappointed. But what would she be disappointed about? We're keeping their secret. They should be glad.
"I don't want to leave," Adam said as soon as they left. "I don't want to either," Leo confessed. Mr. Davenport got up and put his hands on Adam and Leo's shoulders. "It's the right thing to do," Mr. Davenport said softly. To be honest, I wasn't sure it was.
No one's POV:
The kitchen in the Davenport's hotel came up on a small computer screen. Someone was watching them. Then the President entered the dark room. "What did you find out that was so important?" The President asked.
"Sir, the Davenport's discovered something huge," The security guard told them. The President crossed his arms, "And what's that?" He asked. "They discovered mermaids."
