Uniqua awoke to the sting of the ocean salt in her nose, and the persistent crashing of waves against a rocky shore.
Her blurred view focused, and she soon was presented with the scene of a vast ocean beyond the deserted island she sat on. Behind her was a dense tangle of tropical foliage, along with a towering mountain even further away in the distance, masked by a heavy fog.
Cautiously, she began to stand up, her legs quivering and her pink overalls now a ragged mess of cloth. She began to make her way along the rocky beach, wincing as the balls of her feet met merciless shards of rock.
As the fog in front of her cleared, she was able to spot a strange object lodged in the gritty sand. Soon after she had initially spotted it, she was able to identify it as a simple conch. She swiftly cleared the sand from the surface of the curious treasure, her soft fingers caressing the rough ocean-carved surface of the majestic shell. A memory of backyard imagination drifted into her mind, for once her and Pablo had blown into a "conch" much similar to this one, except of course it hadn't made any noise, being make-believe. Now perhaps she could finally live out that moment for real.
She slowly brought the mouth of the conch to her lips and prepared her breath. With a heavy sigh she released her air into the conch, and an echoing, haunting sound followed. The island trees in the distance seemed to shiver, as if her breath had been a mighty gust of wind sweeping through the whole island. Astonished by the eerie beauty of the sound, Uniqua stood where she was, still listening for the echoing bellow of the conch traveling through the sea air.
She wasn't sure of how long she had been standing in a trance, but when she came to her senses the sun was setting, and a hungry rumble rolled through her stomach.
Suddenly a strange rustling sound came from behind her, and she whipped around to see something emerge from the bushes.
