The first to follow her was Kat, who caught up to her quicker than she'd liked but she didn't let that bother her. This was the new moon celebration plus she promised to play nice with Kat for the night. Once they reached the far side of the island Nina rose to the surface again. This time the group wasn't alone. Hundreds of other Mako Mermaids joined them, forming small circles in the ocean. "Don't worry, humans rarely come here. Especially at night." She said motioning them to form their own little circle.
This would have been the first time Kat even sang with the pod let alone with Nina. Maybe things would be fine, Nina could play nice with Kat but from Nina's point of view Kat was the problem not herself. One by one the circles of mermaids began singing in harmony. Loud enough for the rest of the pod to hear but not the unknown humans on the other side of the island.
Once they got to shore, Colin helped he rout of the boat even though she really didn't need it. He also refused to let her help him unload the boat, which also annoyed her a little but she knew what he was doing so she didn't push it. She scanned area "Are we camping on the beach or in the forest?" Personally she loved the beach, it was much easier to set up your tent on the beach rather than the forest. She looked at her phone, two bars, The closer they got to the forest the less bars she'd have which was good for her. That way if her mother tried to call or text she wouldn't be able to answer which was another reason why her mother hated her going to Mako. Her mother just didn't understand, Mako has been a part of Amber's camping trips for years and it wasn't going to stop now.
Once things were unloaded she grabbed her bags and threw them on her shoulders, "Come on, quite texting. We have to find a place to set up camp. The sooner we do that the sooner I can get to extra smores." She said leading the way farther from the water.
