Princess of all Immortals

The Coral Reef.

Recap:

Suddenly they all started acting and arguing as if I wasn't there anymore so I decided to leave them to argue while I wondered off to think about what they had said and well to explore.

Story:

I was surprised at how naturally swimming with a tail came to me. I seemed to glide in the water and with one small flick of my tail I went shooting off! I realized that while I noticed the colour of the shells that covered Mekan's and Tidal's chest I failed to describe mine (this is probably because I don't look down at my chest every minute like those stereotypical cheerleaders on T.V.

I looked down and saw instead of one plain colour, my shells were a shimmering gold the same colour of my tail and the shells were outlined by tiny sparkling pearls that had been strung together. Looking around after this 'discovery' I found that he trio were tiny specks in the distance which I was shocked at because only a minute ago I had been next to them.

But somehow I wasn't worried, my gut told me that I could get back to them in an instant if I wanted to..... which I didn't but never mind. So with that stuck firmly in my head I started to explore the coral reef I had arrived at. It wasn't like the pictures in the books at the orphanage.

Oh yeah the nun's would have started to look for me, I doubted that they had called the police though I mean I was just another child at the orphanage with no relatives and no money, nothing so special that a fuss could be made up about it. Anyway back to the reef. The pictures in the books were so depressing, the water had been murky as if someone had thrown a handful of sand at the camera and because of this the reefs looked all dull. In other pictures you could only see the outline of the coral!

The coral reef here was completely different, the reef seemed to sparkle, there were multicoloured sea fans, spongy pink corals and rubbery red tube like things. Even the mysterious black and purple sea urchins seemed to shine! Light orange anemones swayed from side to side, clown fish darted in and out of the anemones, angel fish swam around in circles as if playing, a shoal of parrot fish paraded all round the reef.

All matters of sea life seemed to be here, starfish of all shapes and sizes, puffer fish, hermit crabs and normal crabs scuttled along the surface of the reef trying not to attract attention, there were even dolphins who now came up to me and were trying to get me to play with them and oysters crowed together proudly showing off their collections of pearls.

That's just naming the fish I knew, there were loads of others I that I didn't have the faintest idea about. Hang on a second rivers didn't have coral reef!

'So why is there a reef here?' I wondered out loud.

'Because you're not in the river anymore you're in the sea,' I spun around to see who had spoken...
