Later after Bella had just finished telling her story of how she became a mermaid.

"So that's how you became a Mermaid?" Jason asked.

"Yeah." Bella replied, "Pretty cool huh?"

"Are you kidding it's totally AWESOME!" Brett exclaimed.

Bella smiled at his enthusiasm. "Yeah," She told them. "Though sometimes it can be annoying. Having to run and hide every time I come into contact with water or stuff that has mostly water."

"What about when you have to..." Jason trailed off.

"When I have to what?" She asked him.

"Use the Restroom."

"My own bodily fluids don't trigger the transformation." She informed them, "Only other people's."

"Oh okay." Jason replied.

"Have you already shown her around the Island?" Brett asked Neri.

"Yes." She replied. "Showed her whole Island."

"So how was migrating with Charley?" Jason asked.

"Good." Neri replied, "Fun. That's how I met Bella."

"You met Bella while you were migrating with Charley?" Brett questioned.

"Yes." Neri said. "She was following and watching." She continued, "Then we meet each other and become friends."

"So are there others like you?" Jason asked.

"Possibly." Bella said, "After all there's a Moonpool in Australia as well as the one in Ireland."

"What about when you have to take a bath or Shower?" Brett asked.

"Well I always take a Bath since I turn into a mermaid anyhow and then just scrub my scales with soap and wash my hair with shampoo and condition it." She replied answering their quesions Patiently.

"Well we better head back to ORCA." Jason said reluctantly.

"Okay." Bella replied. "See you later Jason, Brett,"

"Bye Jason and Brett." Neri added soon after.

"Bye Neri. Bye Bella!" Brett waved to them along with Jason after they got aboard their boat. The two girls waved in return until they were out of sight.

"They're nice." Bella said to Neri.

"Yes, Jason and Brett very nice." Neri agreed. "So is their mother."

"Their mother?" Bella questioned, "They're brothers?"

"Yes." Neri replied.

"That's cool." Bella replied. They were both Quiet for a few minutes.

"So why you not tell them about other fish girl friends?" Neri asked.

"It's not my secret to tell." She answeed, "I shouldn't have even told you."

"You not trust me?" Neri questioned.

"No I trust you Neri." She assured her, "I really do but, My friends would be really mad if they knew I had told you about them being Mermaids."'

"But Jason and Brett Bella's friends too." She replied, "They not Tell Bella's or Bella's friends secrets. Not unless Necessary." She replied.

"But my friends don't know that because they don't know them." Bella told her.

"They we show Bella's friends Brett and jason. So they can see they can trust." Neri told her.

"I don't know Neri." Bella said.

"Not know what?" Neri replied confused.

"I don't know if we should introduce them to Brett and Jason." Bella replied.

"Why not?"

"If they find out that you know about them being mermaids. They'll be mad at me because it's not my secret to tell." She told her.

"Friends will forgive. I sure." Neri told her putting her hand on her shoulder in a comforting gesture.

"I hope so." Bella said in reply.
