I am wanting to write a cool action story with like action and stuff and make it like really really cool.  And there are people in it who do like things and stuff.  At one point there is tension, like you know a problem that they have to solve, but they do and then it has a cool ending.

Im having trouble coming up with a plot, you know, I have ideas but need someone to tell me how to put them into a story and make it really really good. Can I get some help or pointers please?

Best to subvert expectations in such an inflated market of "cool action" stories. Have you thought of writing a story that takes the audience by surprise with an action story that's not cool? It would have very little action and stuff in it and have a not cool ending. Could be cool by not being cool. Does that make sense?
