The next morning when I woke, my stomach growled. I was hungry and the day before I didn't catch any fish. Azar, Mira, and Glaze were peacefully sleeping and I felt bad for getting them into this whole mess. Even though I was scared to go in the water because of the Leviathan, I wanted to surprise them with some fish. I wasn't gonna be Glaze and chicken out, I was gonna go back in the water, but this time stay near the cliff to catch the fish.

I slowly got up and walked to the edge of the cliff and dove in again. I kept an eye out for fish that would taste good. I swam to the reef and collected as many nice and tasty fish I could find and fit in my mouth. I swam back to the surface and flew to the top of the cliff.

Everyone had just woken up when I dropped the fish on the ground. They all looked surprised, and hungry, but mostly surprised.

"Wow, fish. Oh my gosh I am so hungry. Amaya, did you catch them?" Mira asked.

"Yup. This morning you all were sleeping and I felt hungry too. So while you guys were asleep, I dove into the ocean and caught a few fish for us all, so dig in everyone." I began to eat a fish and everyone came to join me.

"Thanks Amaya. You're the best friend! All of you are." Azar commented.

"Of course you guys. I got everyone in this mess. It's the least I could do for you all. I am sorry for getting you all into this mess with me." I felt bad. I shouldn't have asked them to come. Not only did I put myself in danger, 3 of my best friends were in danger too. Who knows what would happen.

"Aww, Amaya it's ok. I chose to come with you knowing anything could happen. If we didn't come, you would have gone alone and would have been in more danger without us. Friends stick together." Mira was honestly the greatest friend.

"Yeah. I am glad we came. No matter what happens we are together. We support each other." Glaze for once seemed fine with the whole thing. Azar nodded.

A few hours went by and we got ready to leave and go to Asia! I hoped it would be as cool as they all said it was, I wanted to see the cool things, not just the ocean and the cliff.

We packed up the stuff I had brought and then we flew off and began to head towards Asia. I was very excited. I couldn't wait to explore more than what we had explored. I loved seeing and trying new things. I wondered if all of the world was just the ocean. So far it didn't seem like there was much of the world. Although we didn't explore enough of it to really know for sure.

All you could see for miles and miles was ocean water, nothing more, nothing less. I was getting bored with the view. I wanted to see more cities, or forests. We had been flying for 4 hours and my wings were getting tired. I needed a break, but there was nothing in sight to land on and rest.

"Guys I can't fly any more. My wings are in pain." I told them.

"Mine are too. Flying too much can damage feeble wings, that would be mine." Glaze agreed.

"I agree, my wings have never done this much work before." Mira was needing rest as well.

"Yeah I need to rest too." Azar said. We all looked around, but we couldn't land on anything.

"Well there goes that plan." Glaze looked about ready to fall into the water, which then gave me an idea.

"Guys, we can bob up and down in the water for a bit, just to give our wings time to refresh and fly again. The water is nice and calm. There is no way a huge storm will hit us if we rest for a while." I assured them.

"Amaya, did you forget that your three best friends aren't water dragons, we can't breathe underwater and we can't hold our breath for long." Mira stated. She was right, they weren't Water Dragons.
