It's sad that I have to wait in order to destroy them. I hope they hurry up, and find all their powers so I can move on with my plan. They don't even realise that they have powers beyond water: the sight, the flight, the sound, and the invisible. I know their powers will show very soon, and will become obvious to them I know Kira's has.

Alley was eating breakfast alone...again. she guesses Avery, and her mother were probably at the therapist trying to figure out why she always hurts herself, but Alley knows that she's faking an illness for attention, but whatever. She got her bag, and walked outside amd waited for Terra, Kira, and Vanessa.

At school Alley called Kira, Terra, and Vanessa over to the bathroom " Why are we here?" Terra asked

" because I want to show you something" Alley replied

" probably something dumb" Vanessa remarked

" oh really?" Alley asked sarcastically as she moved out her arm towards the sink. The water turned on, Vanessa was surprised. The water started floating until it got on top of Vanessa's head then she let it drop. She gasps as she was drenched in water. She fell on the floor as she grew her tail, she was both amazed, and angry.

" what the fu-"

"TERRA!"Kira yelled

" what? I'm amazed"

"that's not it" Alley revealed. She brought her hand up again to where it was pointed above Vanessa's head. A cloud forms and it started to rain. Vanessa was both terrified and amazed

"oh and one more" Alley brought her arm out again, and this time she made a pool in the sink, it turned into a small wave that hit Vanessa

"oh and how could I forget?" She picked up Vanessa with her mind. She was 5 inches off the ground then Alley dropped her "ugh! ALLEY JEEZ" Vanessa yelled

"oops sorry hehe" Alley mocked. Vanessa was still on the ground a mermaid so Terra decided to "steam dry" her. It started smoking in the bathroom

"ow! That stings" Vanessa hissed in pain.

Vanessa stood up, the smoke was already starting to disperse, but it set off the fire alarm. They could hear the alarm, but they couldn't know when the sprinklers would spray

" Dang! we have 7 seconds before the sprinklers turn on" Kira yelled. They all ran out of the bathroom as fast as possible, they looked for the closest exit once out of the bathroom then Terra heard it, the pipes were shaking with water

" 4 seconds"

"what?!"

"4 Seconds come on over here!" Terra lead them to a door to a different hallway. The hallway behind them had water all over it, the teens were coming out of the classroom getting drenched in water. Terra heard it again

" The pipes...We have 6 Seconds come!" They ran out the door in front of them, and led them outside. They were all panting, and struggled to speak

" Terra... How... Did... You... Know?" Alley managed to get through her pants " I... Could... Hear... The pipes". Everyone composed themselves and looked at Terra "What do you mean?" Asked Kira " you couldn't hear it?"

"No I didn't hear anything" they all said making Terra feel crazy "nevermind I was probably just being silly" Terra moved across the street from the school.

Everyone was coming out of the school drenched in water

" hey Kira!" A voice greeted behind her. Kira turned around to be greeted by a smiling and...WET Eric, she had to stay away from him

" hey Kira I was thinking about what you said about you know... Us" Kira wasn't listening, she was looking at the water dripping from his skin. " you understand right?"

" Huh?" "Um yeah yeah I understand"

" great!" Eric tried to go for her hand, but Kira pulled away.

" what's wrong Kira?"

" I don't touch wet people" she said playfully then walked away making him chase after her.

Dan finds Terra on a bench

" hey T what are you doing here all alone?" He asked

" I don't know thinking I guess? "She noticed his dripping hair, and clothes and when he went to sit down next to her she squirmed away. "Is something wrong Terra?"

"Your wet!"

"It's just a bit of water."

" Well if you touch me with that little bit of water then I'll get wet and uncomfortable"

" hahaha I guess you're right, but I've never seen you so scared before" Terra blushed from Dan's words then he laughed even more.

Terra was in class. She was doing her classwork when Daniella sat next to her 'what does she want?' "So Terra how did you do it?" She asked

" what are you going on about?"

" Did you really think you were the only ones in the bathroom I mean come on" as soon as Terra heard that she felt a Pang of anger in her heart. 'Oh my gosh this little witch! Why didn't she say something or give a sign that she was there!? How much did she hear?' Terra thought in anger " what Little baby going to cry?"

"Shut up Daniella!"

"or what? I know your secret, and I won't hesitate to tell everyone"

"you heard nothing!"

"Oh yes I did I learned about your little cult"

"cult?"

"Yeah cult you guys are in some weird cult where you splash water"

"Hahahahaha oh Daniella you know nothing" Terra was relived to know that Daniella truly knew nothing. Class ended Terra walked outside only to be tripped by Daniella, but Terra didn't fall she flipped herself upward. Daniella was surprised at this motion which caused her eyes to widen. "What is wrong with you?" Terra yelled getting in Daniella's face Daniella grabbed Terra's hair from the back " you think I don't know anything ,but I do I just don't want to share . I could be the one to bring you down" Terra looked at her dumbfounded she wasn't scared, but Daniella took it as fear and walked away in confidence while Terra is thinking of ripping her face off.

Later that day Alley, Vanessa, Terra and Kira were at the beach it was warm with a little hot breeze " have you guys been swimming since you transformed? Asked Kira"

"no I haven't I didn't have anyone to swim with" Vanessa replied viciously "ugh" Alley sounded annoyed. "I can't even swim how can I go deep like you guys do?"

"Alley it's okay mermaids can't drown we can breath air and water"

" how does that work?"

"I don't know we just can"

" come on guys enough of Alley's dumb questions let's swim" Vanessa was waiting anxiously to get in the water. She's always enthusiastic about swimming and now that she's a mermaid she feels even happier. While Alley never really swims she soaks, she's not really enthusiastic about being a mermaid, but she thinks it's cool. They all stepped in the shallow end of the water. They slowly descended deeper, and not so long after they all grew their tails. Whenever they turn into mermaids their appearances change and they have different colored tails. Kira has red hair that's typically at her shoulders now at her waist. Her eyes turn from a peircing blue to an ocean blue color, her face looking more adultish From her child like exterior. her top is a nice green color, and resembles a small piece of cloth wrapped around her torso stopping at her waist, her tail is a nice light blue color almost the color of the sky. Terra had a dark blue tail kind of like Navy, but lighter. her top was pink, but more like a bra unlike Kira's. Her eyes turn from a dark brown to hazel brown color. Her hair was usually to her armpits now is to her hips. Her face looks more childish than her usually mature face. Alley's hair was no longer chin length it now touched her shoulder, she no longer had light green eyes her eyes were now a turquoise color. Her top was a beige colored tank top like cover. Her tail was a bright yellow color and it gets darker as it reaches the fin. Her face no longer had that "Asian" look now she looked like she was american, but with larger eyes. Vanessa's tail was purple with a long fin floating out on top. Her top was like a sports bra, and was black colored, her hair grew from waist length to thigh length, and her face grew slightly uglier from her normal cuteish look.

they all swam into the deeper parts of the water the deeper they went, the more scared Alley got. As soon as they went underwater she panicked while Vanessa got it in one swift motion. Kira swam up to Alley and put her hand on her back to calm her down. Alley soon after stopped flailing her arms. "Calm down it's ok I'm here" Kira reassured Alley started to relax she looked at everyone else who were swimming then started to follow their motions. "I'm doing it! I'm doing it!" She exclaimed in excitement. She started to swim freely as the rest of them, and started to go deeper "wow! The ocean sure is beautiful" the look of the ocean made her more inclined to swimming 'walking is now obsolete! ' She thought.

They swam and swam as far as they could go and they lost track of time. The sun was starting to set, but they couldn't care less they kept swimming. They swam up to a coral feild it had so many colors they started to play around in it. Kira started to feel something it was like a type of intuition that some one was watching them. Terra heard someone swimmimg near "hello?" She heard a whisper.

A little mermaid swam up to them with a smile. The tension was now gone from Terra and Kira. The mermaid looked about 10 or 12 she looked happy "hi" she beamed "hello" Alley replied cautiously. "You guys look diffrent I've never seen you around here before which pod are you from?"

"Pod?"

"Yea which pod and cave are you from?" They all looked at eachother they had no idea what she was talkimg about. "We don't have a pod" Kira answered.

She gasped "are you rogues?" She asked in fear.

" nonono we came from up there" Vanessa pointed up

"land? Oh my gosh!" The girl started to bow "please forgive me godesses I didn't know" they were all dumbfounded by the girls actions "um what?" Vanessa questioned "please don't punish my mother for my mistake punish me"

"Punish you? For what" an older mermaid swam up and asked

"Aunty! I mistook godesses for mere rouges and foreigners. The aunt's eyes widened in fear "YOU INSOLENT CHILD! Your mother could be punished for this"

"what is going on?" Terra asked confused Vanessa shrugged. The aunty turned to them and started to beg "please don't hurt aqua! she's didn't do anything it was her child's densness she is very sick and-" "sick?" Kira cut her off "yes sh-" "take me to her" the aunty and the little girl started leading them. The aunty smacked the little girl in the head with a dissappointed look on her face.

They were in some kind of underwater cave filled with mermaids and mermen it looked like a busy street of people. They were selling food, taking romantic swims, and eating in...restaurants? 'Ok this is freaky' Terra thought. They showed up at a large coral dome "this is our house" the little girl stated. The small sign on the outside of it said sea's Kira didn't know what that meant, but on land it usually meant their last names.

They were lead inside "sorry for the mess" the little girl apologised. There was little peices of medicine like coral containers everywhere. They lead them to a room with a bed anf a sickly woman sleeping on it. She was skinny pale, and looked like death. She opened her eyes and faced us "oh hello" she said with little energy. She put on a weak smile for the visitors in her house "you see her right? So please don't punish her she's been punished enough already"

"Punish me?" She questioned and looked at Terra, Kira, Vanessa, and Alley with wide eyes "I understand" she sighed and called for her daighter she held her daughter's hand in her own "take care" she said handing her daughter a green necklace her daughter started crying and moved back. The woman sighed "I'm ready" she closed her eyes. Terra, Kira, Vanessa, and, Alley didn't know what to do. Kira suddenly lifted her hand and got closer to the fearful woman. The aunty and the little girl turned away. Kira put jer hand over the woman's heart the hand glowed a golden color. Kira wasn't sure what she was doing, but suddenly the woman's hair had volume and was a vibrant blonde color, her skin was no longer pale she had beautiful golden skin, and curves started to appear on her body, she looked healthier and she opened her eyes "huh?" She looked in the mirror and touched her face. She turned to Kira and smiled. "Mama?"

"Aqua?" The little girl and aunty beamed they swam and hugged her they were so happy. They turned to the mermaids and said "thank you, thank you sooo much" "how can we repay you?" The aunt asked "oh no no that's unnec-"

"I want food" Terra interrupted

"Oh me too!" Vanessa agreed

"I could eat" Alley stated

"C'mon guys really?"

"That's perfectly fine. Come on let's make food for the goddesses"

The family went into the kitchen to make food they were happier with the woman...Aqua back on her fins, but the girls were forgetting something going back home.

"Where is she? That brat is always trying to take attention from me" Avery searched her room for anything incriminating on Alley "ow!" She felt a pang of pain from the bruise she left on herself 'mom never looks at me enough' she thought she looked through her drawers to find a book "what's this?" She opened the book it was filled with drawings of mermaids, and explainations of their powers. "I'm keeping this" she took it to her room and started reading.

What are they doing here? They're not sopposed to be here! Why are they in my territory? Why aren't they leaving? And why did she heal my experiment?
