The Adventure Kids in A Dolphin's Sequel

Chapter 6

Soon, everyone was busy at work helping to prepare for Mandy's release. They had managed to get Mandy into a stretcher and were now lowering her down towards the truck that would take her back to the ocean. 

"All right, are you guys ready down there?" Clay asked his team. 

The staff nodded already in position. 

"Okay, here we go. Keep tension on the ropes, please" Clay said as the crane started lowering with Mandy in the stretcher.

"Whoa! Whoa! What is happening?!" Mandy started freaking out. 

"It's okay, Mandy" David assured the adult dolphin. "You're just going for a little ride"

"Yeah, on a return trip back to the ocean" Brock added. 

Mandy began slowly moving down towards the staff who were ready to recieve her. 

"We're gonna take her in tail first" Phoebe informed the rest of the team. 

They soon grabbed a hold of the stretcher. "Easy" Teeders said. "Watch her fluke"

Hazel was watching the progress from above with her dad. Seeing how much she's proven herself over the past few days, Clay decided to put Hazel in charge of this operation. 

"Lower her to Phoebe's side as we go up the ramp" Martin told the gang.

Everyone did just that as they carefully loaded Mandy into the truck and soon drove off. They didn't have to go far, arriving in minutes at the beach. 

"All right, we're here" Teeders said. 

"Oh, this is so exciting!" Ann beamed. 

"Keep your wetsuit on" Cynthia reminded her. "It's only beginning" 

A staff member then lifted up the back door to the truck. 

"Here we go, guys" Kali told the Akids. 

Meanwhile out on the bay, Chris, Aviva, Koki, Jimmy and Zoboo were in the Tortuga with Kyle, keeping track of the team's progress from there. 

The team began to unload Mandy while Hazel did a quick check on the walkies. "Radio check? Kyle, Chris, do you read me?"

"Yeah, we hear you" Kyle replied on the other end but then asked. "Sorry, but who is this? Is that you, Phoebe?"

Hazel soon smiled in reply. "It's Hazel"

Kyle smiled, telling the others. "It's Hazel"

"Well I'll be" Koki said. 

The Wild Kratts crew chuckled, being proud of Hazel for taking charge of Mandy's release. Chris then replied back. "Hey, Hazel. We read you loud and clear"

Back on the beach, a crowd had gathered as the adults brought Mandy out of the truck. That's when Sawyer spotted someone in the crowd. 

"Hazel, guys, look!" Sawyer pointed to them. 

The kids looked over spotting Mandy along with her brother Troy and their mom holding up a sign that read "We love Mandy forever".

"It's Mandy!" Brock said. 

The gang smiled, waving back at her as Clay, Martin and the team started walking Mandy out. The kids came to help carry the stretcher as they headed out into the water. 

"Doing good, guys" Kali told the gang. 

"Watch your footing" Cynthia added. 

The gang were soon about torso deep in the water when Hazel said. "Okay. That's good. Stop here"
