Bella Hartley quotes from H2O: Just Add Water

Rikki

Water wouldn't attack us! We're mermaids. We're supposed to control it.

Cleo

I know Rikki, but it's what I saw! And it's a full moon.

Rikki

I thought we had that sorted.

Bella

You alright, Rikki?

Rikki

Shouldn't you be singing?

Cleo

Lewis thinks we do.

Bella

There's something I need to ask you.

Cleo

Well, whatever it is it can wait.

Bella

There's something going on here, isn't there? Something magical.

Rikki

That's ridiculous. There is no such thing as magic.

Rikki

Nice tail.

Bella

Likewise.

Lewis

You been a mermaid since you were nine?

Bella

We were living in Ireland at the time. My parents were working, so I took off to the coast. And I found this sea cave, and I went into a pool and... (Demonstrates her different mermaid abilities by turning the water into jelly)

Lewis

Wow.

Rikki

So when my bike still had training wheels, you had a tail.

Bella

When did you guys change?

Rikki

Oh, we been mermaids for ages.

Lewis

Do that again.

Bella

I was nine years old. We were in Ireland, so I took off to the coast. I found this sea cave, it felt so beautiful...like I was at home. And then something magical happened.

Will

What about the others- Cleo and Rikki? Are they...

Bella

No.

Will

You sure.

Bella

Yeah. I'm the only one. We can keep this between us, right?

Will

I don't know. Let stay here to think things through.

Will

Okay, guys. Ever since the full moon, Rikki and I haven't been totally honest with you.

Bella

Why? What happened between you two at Mako?

Will

I didn't save her from the water tentacle. Rikki saved me.

Cleo

What? How?

Will

She has some connection with it, the energized water. It's like she can control it. Like it was listening to her, obeying her.
