Leo's hand waved, and the water changed forms. It went from triangles into spheres. "Hmm." He wasn't satisfied with it. He saw the flowers outside and had an idea. Concentrating, he waved his hand again and it turned into a water replica of the flowers outside. To his surprise it had the same color and details of them. His eyes lit up in awe.

He decided to test out this new technique he discovered he could do. He made water replicas of his tv, games, comics, and skateboard. He looked at himself in the mirror and smirked. His brothers were running frantically to get everything packed. "Can you give us a hand Leo? The first ever school festival is going to be held thanks to us being so persistent. We don't want to be late!" they spotted Leo moving towards the kitchen.

"Hold on bro." he turned to face them. "Take this box will you?" when he reached out to catch it, the box went through him and landed on the floor. that made Mikey scream. Everyone ran in. "What's going on?!" Donny and Raph were alarmed. Mikey jumped sky high. "Leo's transparent again!" He was swatting his hand to make a point. Before they could freak out, Leo came downstairs. "Sorry I'm late, had to grab the last of the items for our mermaid booth."

They jumped in fright. "Two Leo's?" Leo looked at his double and laughed. "You can move?" it mimicked his movements perfectly.

The others were freaked out. "Leo? mind telling us what the shell is going on here?" Leo smiled. "It turns out I can make water copies of things and people. Observe!" he changed the form of himself into the kitchen table, then the stove, then a replica of Raph with his arms crossed. Mikey squealed in excitement. "It looks just like you Raphie." He jumped up and down. "Do me! Do me!"

Leo waved his hand and there was a Mikey replica in the room. They did a high five. "Cowabunga!" Mikey exclaimed. "Radical!" the replica responded. That shocked everyone. "The replicas can talk too?" their fun was cut short with Splinter walking in. "Just the last few boxes and we are ready." He stopped. "Are there two Michelangelo's in the room?" Leo waved his hand to get the water in one of his vases. "I learned a new trick dad!" Splinter's ears drooped.

They made it to the school to get the festival set up with everyone else. "Leo!" he made his way to the booth that he and his friends made. It's a booth with a mermaid painting on it. "You got the vases?" "I sure do!" he took them out of the box before placing them neatly on the table. "This is going to be great. Mermaid magic tricks. They won't know it's actual magic." They filled the vases with water and added seashells for pizzazz. "I learned a new trick just now."

That got everyone's attention. "Really? Show us! Show us!" angel was getting as giddy as Mikey was earlier. Behind a pile of boxes, Leo demonstrated his copies. "This is incredible. I never knew water could do that. Can you make a replica of this dollar bill? That Cola over there is calling me." Gerry said before April punched him in the shoulder. "Ow." He rubbed it in pain. "It's time! You guys ready?!" they huddled before cheering in excitement. "Too bad Venus isn't doing the same booth. Which one is she working at?"

They pointed to a snow cone booth. "Darn April, that would've been perfect for you." she growled at Angel. She backed away slowly hiding behind Leo for protection. Leo waved to his girlfriend. She waved back and blew a kiss. The others were teasing him with kissy faces. "Stop that!" he was getting embarrassed. The festival commenced. It started off great. Everyone were fascinated with their tricks. "How did you do that?" a student asked them. Angel held her finger up. "Magicians never give away their secrets."

Unbeknownst to everyone, Venus's dad Chung I and his wife Mae had entered the festival. They came to support their children and friends but the smell of meat permeated Chung I's nostrils. He has more primal instincts when it comes to food. He goes crazy over the smell of blood and any meat being prepared. That's why they eat raw fish and cook the meat before he's home. When his primal instincts kick in, he changes into his snake form. The same happens to her brother Mars except he's in-octopus form.

Mars began smelling the food as well and did his best not to change but failing. Before anyone could react, they changed. Chung I ran behind a tent. "Dear! Please no!" Mars ran to the bathroom before he changed into his octopus form. He grunted while swinging his arms around. He knocked some booths down and began running around. Chung I slithered away from his wife, hissing at the people who saw him.

People were screaming terrified. They were running for their lives. "What are those things?!" Leo and the others heard. To their horror, there was Chung I and Mars causing chaos. As everyone ran away, Venus ran to them. "Dad! Mars! No! Sit Mars! Sit I say!" her dad slithered passed her and began knocking booths down with his tail. Distracted by her dad, Mars knocked her down.

He began devouring all the food. "You okay Venus?" she rubbed her head. "Yeah I'm fine." She looked at all the people running. "No one should remember this. Angel help me! You guys stop my dad and my brother!" as she was running April asked, "How?!" she yelled, "Get rid of the food!" they rushed into action. Leo and April were getting food from other booths before they could devour them.

Gerry is the lucky one to deal with the two booths being eaten. He slapped the tentacles away. Mars growled at him. "Bad Mars! This foods no good for you!" before he knew it, he was being squeezed by Chung I with his gold and silver tail. He looked him straight in the eyes. "Hello Mr. De Milo, is that a rat over there?" he turned and spotted Splinter. He put him down and went after him. "No! There's supposed to be no one there!" a tentacle grabbed his ankle.

"Ah!" he screamed before spotting some water and using his powers to cover the food with it. The smell was gone, and Mars reverted back to normal. "Yes!" he yelled as he was freed. "Awe my head. What happened?" before Gerry could explain, there was a struggle between Splinter and Chung I. "Father no!" they ran to aid them.

With Venus and Angel, they ran to the swimming pool that's close to the festival grounds. "The plan is for me to spit my venom into the pool and you make a steam to cover the whole area. Luckily, everyone is stuck in the parking lot." Angel crossed her arms. "What? It's not poison, just a venom that I can manipulate for people to not remember what happened." She uncrossed her arms and nodded. The venom was added in and steam was being created.

It covered the whole school, people who were panicked were inhaling it and they just stood still waiting for orders to be given. Leo and April got the last of the cooked food and threw it in the trash.

They high fived each other. "That was easier than I'd expected." They heard crashing and saw Leo's dad being held captive by Chung I. he was knocking down the rest of the booths as Gerry and Mars tried to wrestle him. they ran to help them. they grabbed onto him only to be thrown a few feet away. Leo noticed he released his dad but would be after him. he saw the puddle near him and got an idea.

Before Chung I could look at Splinter, Leo whistled, and he saw a Splinter replica. He began chasing it down into the pool. He landed in there and screeched. After that, he rose from the water and after ten seconds, he was back to normal. All that was left was destruction. Venus gave the people the orders to go home and sleep and not remember this night. They obeyed.

Once everyone regrouped, their friends and families were yelling at the mermaids and sea creatures. They were so mean, so cold, it broke their hearts. A couple of days later, Leo and the others were meeting Venus at the beach. She asked them to come over. When they arrived, they saw her family there with backpacks strapped on them. "What's going on Venus?" Leo asked worried.

She looked very sad. "We've decided to leave for a while. I, I don't know when or if we are coming back." "You guys don't have to leave it wasn't your fault." She nodded her head. "I know, but we caused so much trouble and panic. Everyone were so cruel to us. We just need some time is all." they were crying. They were hugging each other. Leo gave Venus a silver necklace with a seashell on it.

"It's for our 4th month anniversary." She gasped and hugged him tightly. "I love you." "I love you too. Please call us." She nodded sadly. It was time to for them to leave. They walked into the ocean until they transformed and with a final wave they were gone, leaving the mermaids to sulk and ponder about their lives as mermaids.
