Miraculous Mermaids - H2o Adventure

Boat Mishap

"12.2 seconds!"
"Cool that's my personal best!" Exclaimed Chloe as she slid out of the water. "A couple more weeks and I will be fit for nationals."
Marinette gave nothing but a slight nod. She envied the way Chloe glided in the water, and wished she could do so herself.
The two walked together back to their houses and said their goodbyes.
----------------
It was close to sunset when Marinette decided she would take a walk at the boardwalk. She had a biology test the following week and needed some fresh air to clear her head.
She walked along the wood planks, admiring the beautiful sunset set over the blue water. She was so lost in it; until someone abruptly called her name.
"Marinette! Oi, Marinette"
Marinette turned around to see who this annoying person was. None other than Kim.
"Yeah that's right, I'm talking to you." Kim reassured.
Marinette couldn't believe it. The guy who teased her constantly was addressing her by her real name instead of Maritrash.
"What do you want Kim?" Marinette said, trying to make as little eye contact as possible. Who knows what he wants to do. Pour ice on her, pull on her hair, make her eat sardines-
"I need some help." Kim consoled, in a sweet tone. "Do you mind?"
Marinette was conflicted. This could just be another one of his pranks. Or maybe Kim finally decided to change his ways and be nice for once. But because Marinette had such a kind heart, she gave in.
"Well... I guess I can help?" Marinette muttered, still a bit concerned.
She started walking carefully towards Kim and his boat, making sure to keep an eye on him
"What do you need me to do Kim?"

"All I need is for someone to pass me the tools."
Sounded easy enough. Marinette slowly stepped into the boat and started rummaging through the tools.

"It took me a while to realise someone stole the spark plug straight from my boat."

"Well does it work without one?" Marinette questioned, inspecting all the tools.
"Why don't we find out?"
Just as Kim said that, he untied the rope that attached his boat to the boardwalk and used his foot to push his boat and Marinette astray into the lake.
Marinette hadn't dared to move. One small step and it could tip the whole boat right over. And let's just say, she wasn't the strongest swimmer. But she made sure to keep a poker face. Seeing that it bothered Marinette, would only make it more entertaining for him.
"Come on Kim, this isn't funny!" Marinette whined, carefully stamping her foot.
"It might not be for you, but it is for me! If you can fix it, keep it! My Dad will buy me another one anyway." Kim belowed, walking away.
This was it. Marinette was doomed! She could barely swim, she would tip over the boat and hit her head and start bleeding and then sharks will-
BAM!
Marinette realised that not only was she on the boat, someone else had jumped in too. Looking up, she saw an olive skinned girl, with dark ombre hair and a pair of glasses.
"Look, I don't know if this is some kind of attempt to rescue me, but the boat is pretty much broken. Well unless we retrieve the stolen-"
The brunette started to pull an odd looking metal thing with a smirk on her face
"You- You took it!" Marinette gasped, angry yet relieved. If this random girl didn't take the spark plug maybe she wouldn't be in this situation. But at the moment she was just glad.
"Well Kim needed to learn a lesson for being such an ass."
Marinette couldn't help but chuckle at that true comment.
"Well, wanna go for a ride?" The girl with glasses said. "Oh, and my name's Alya by the way!"

"Marinette."

They exchange a small smile before turning on the jet engine and blasting off deeper into the lake. It was obvious that they were enjoying it due to their laughs and grins. She wanted a clear head but didn't think she would get this much of a clear head! Marinette and Alya were having the time of their lives, not worrying about any problems.
Just as they are about to exit the lake and enter the deep, mysterious sea, Marinette catches a glance of Chloe and halts the boat to a stop.
"Hey Chlo, wanna come for a ride with us?" Marinette yells.
"You guys have a driving permit?" Chloe asks, concerned.

"Who are you, my mother?!" Alya calls out.
Chloe have a slight smirk to this comment, and before she knew it, her feet jumped onto the boat. Sure Chloe could be uptight at times, but sometimes she knows how to have fun.
Alya set the jet off again and drove deep into the salty sea.
----------------------
"We're stuck"
"Stuck?! How can we be stuck?
There they were, the three girls out in the middle of the ocean, with the jet blocked and panicked expressions.
"Well it's quite obvious. The jet is stuffed." Alya hissed.
Mean whilst the arguments between Chloe and Alya, Marinette was silently freaking out. She thought being in the lake was bad, and now she's in the middle of the ocean. Who knows how many hungry sharks are surrounding this area.
"So what's your idea genius?!" Chloe scoffs sarcastically, crossing her arms.
Alya lifts up her hand and points her index finger at an island nearby, Mako Island.
"I say we go there."
