I was splashing water around, stomping in puddles. It was a extremely warm outside of the water, so the water helped cool us down. The ocean surrounding me, and my two best friends, Sam, and Athena, seemed like it could go on for ever. Though I Figured the ocean was bigger than my imagination thought. Athena and I knew each other since we were very close to being neighbors, one day when I was 4 I met her while traveling to the beach right behind my castle. I met Sam when I was about 2 because my parents and his kingdoms have been aligned together. Athena has brown hair and brownish eyes while Sam has brown hair and blue eyes. All of us usually hang out at this ocean because it is in my kingdom. The ocean is this beautiful color of blue. It is so crystal clear that you could see the blue and green fish swimming throughout the shells and sand. My friends and I usually have races across the water and use water guns to shoot at each other. Today, that is exactly what we did. I brought my very cool high tech water gun with me. We use a surfboard sort of thing to make sure the water doesn’t hit us. If it hits one of us 3 times YOU ARE OUT. Anyway, I was pretty far deep into the water, The water was up to my shoulders. I Slipped. I Slipped on the slippery sand. The last I remembered I was falling, slowly as the tip of my head touched the water, until my whole face went in. There was that one split second where I couldn’t breath. Slowly, my eyes shut down. They closed. I couldn’t see.
Then the impossible happened.
“Am I dead?” I asked to myself. I was clueless. The earth or… where ever I was felt as though I was spinning in circles. I slowly, opened my eyes from their shut tight position. One by one. As though I was trying to wake my eyes up they couldn’t… then they could. They opened! I didn’t know if it was a miracle, I was dead, or that this was all a dream. Slowly, as I turned my head, I saw that I was in this place where the coral was 2 feet high and this luxurious coral pink color. Anyone, even in my castle would DREAM of seeing this. As the fish swam through and the coral and the sea horses playing happily. It didn’t look like the surface of the water was near for quite some feet. Though, you could still see the warm sun shining through the blue ocean. I swam around. None of the fish were scared of me, they just went on doing their business. This was a very lovely sight. I swam straight ahead and sat on the ledge of a rock just sitting there in the middle of this beautiful sight. As I sat down I decided to ponder. “Wait…,” I said to myself,“ How can I be here right now. How am I breathing?” This was very difficult to say it was nearly impossible. As I kept thinking I started to miss my friends and was wondering if they had forgotten all about me. I started to cry. I hugged my legs into my chest, and put my head onto my knees. I cried and cried. I kept thinking that I was no longer a living person, that I drowned and I was a lost soul, forever to be on this earth. I sat their for a couple of minutes, just sitting there seeing keeping my eyes on my knees.
I suddenly, felt a tap on my shoulder. With my head still On my knees I brushed what ever tapped my shoulder off of it. Then it tapped again. I lifted my head. I saw 2 people, about my age. For a second I smiled thinking that they could be Sam and Athena. Then when I looked at them and saw how different they looked from Sam and Athena my smile shrank. In the front there was a boy with blondish hair, and hazel eyes with a silver ring around the middle. Surprisingly, like mine! Behind him, there was a girl with brown hair and the same hazel silverish eyes the boy had. I stayed quiet as they started whispering and looking at me like I could hear what they were saying. When they stopped speaking, the girl swam closely to me, so close her face was about 3 inches away. The weird and creepy thing was she had a seal tail where her legs were supposed to be. It looked exactly as though a seal had eaten her legs up. She looked at me and said, “ Who. Are. You?”
I slowly swallowed and said, “ MY name is Bianka. Princess Bianka to you.”
She swam back to whome I suppose is her brother and was whispering to him again. I started to get annoyed because it has been a minute and a half and I don’t enjoy it has been this long and they are whispering about me.
Once they were done speaking(which felt as though it took 5 hours!(was actually 2 minutes.).) The boy came up to me this time and said,“ Come” that was it, just one simple word that this seal-boy said to me.
“ I’m sorry, I can’t because, Firstly, I’m not aloud to follow strangers. If I knew who you were, I would consider it but I don’t so I am going to try to go to my home.” And with that I stood up.
When I looked up the girl had her arm crossed and just looked at me. Then said,“ Hi, my name is Coral and this is…” addressing the boy next to her with arm gestures.
“ Hi, my name is Peter and I am Coral’s sister” The boy said glaring at this Coral girl,“ Please will you come with us, you are one of us.”
“What do you mean, one of you.”
“ Well, he means that you have the same eye color as us so you-” Coral said.
“ NO!,” I shouted, “ Firstly, I don’t think it is very nice that you are saying “Our Kind” that could offend someone, and secondly, just because I have the same eye color as you doesn’t mean I am one of you.”
“Actually…” The girl trailed on. I think I fell asleep for most of what she said because when I woke up she was saying, “ The point is, I think that we should at least be friends, and once you know and trust us you can come with us.”
“ I will remember that the next time I see you.” I murmured.
“ What?” She said
“Can I you show me to the beach, please. So that I can go to my house? I will visit again, really I will.” She smiled when I said that. Someday I thought in my head.
At this they bid their goodbyes and showed me where the beach was.
