In the silence that Garnet and Emerald shared, emotions have been brewing underneath. Garnet has fallen for Emerald and he badly wanted her to trust him and Emerald, though uncertain, is slowly beginning to feel giddy yet comfortable whenever she is with Garnet. However, in the midst of all this silence, they heard a strong thunder and the waves became stronger.
"Emerald, Emerald, do not forget that you have to find the clam or you will stay as a mermaid forever." A loud voice that seems to have risen from the depths of the sea was heard.
"A mermaid forever?" Carlos inquired.
"Hmm..." Emerald did not know what to say. Carlos was waiting.
"Yes... Poseidon wanted me to be in his abode as a mermaid. I miss my parents. I need that clam."
" You mean... you're not a real mermaid?" Carlos was aghast and perplexed.
"Emerald! Emerald!" The voice roared again.
