Deep Sea Girl

Shock Twist

Emma, Martha, Sarah and I walked along the beach. The soft sand got stuck in between my toes. Luke ran and caught up with us.

"Hows my two mer-" he paused.

"Great," Sarah interrupted.

"Mermaids?" Martha asked.

Sarah gave her an evil look.

"Because, um, they're magical creatures!" Martha laughed, trying to cover up her mistake.

"Hey look, it's Reece and Alice," I smiled and waved at Alice.

She waved back, so did Reece. I saw Alice dive into the water, followed by Reece. Sarah put her arm around Luke.

"It sure is nice out here. Nice enough for a swim." Luke hinted.

Sarah smiled at Luke and flipped her hair.

"Hey, guys, how long have Alice and Reece been under the water for?" Emma asked, a little bit nervous.

Martha looked down at her watch.

"2 minutes." Martha answered.

"So you timed them when they went in the water?" I laughed.

Martha shook her head. Something in my mind just clicked.

"2 minutes!" I screamed.

"Maybe they drowned?" Emma suggested. I slipped my jandals off.

"Where are you going?" Sarah asked.

"To save my friends!" I replied and ran down to the water.

"You can't! What about our secret?" Martha cried.

"They're in danger, and all you care about is our secret?" I asked.

Luke stood there, with his mouth wide open.

"So, Martha and Emma know too?" he asked Sarah. She nodded.

I dived into the water. I couldn't see them anywhere. But then it struck me, there was a boy, and a girl, holding hands, both with....... tails! Reece looked at me, and quickly tried to hide, but then he saw my tail. We all came up to the waters surface.

"You're a mermaid!" We all screamed at eachother. Emma, Martha, Sarah and Luke stared at us from the sand.

"How, how, did this happen?" I asked Alice.

"We were playing around in this little cave and then, I'm not sure what happened next." Alice explained.

I couldn't believe it. There were more mermaids, and a merman.
