The Kidnap Near the Railway

4.

  Sally is a new character. Obviously she is going to be a Salmon, kind of a mermaid. Same with Niki, so she will also somewhat be in this chapter. I couldn't think of a fish for Niki, so you guys can just think of a random fish.

  Wilbur had shown Tommy almost everything there was to see.

  Tommy hates to admit it, but he had grown to really like Wilbur. It almost did feel like they were brothers in a way.

  Wilbur stopped in his tracks all of the sudden and starred over at something.

  Tommy looked over a creek confused, "what are you staring at??"

  "Her." Wilbur said, turning Tommy's head to see a red head salmon.

  "Oh- do you like her?" Tommy asked, "go talk to her!"

  "No no, I can't do that!" Wilbur said all flustered.

  Tommy pushed Wilbur towards the creek, "Talk to her!! Talk to her!! Talk to her!!"

  The girl looked up confused and tilted her head at Wilbur, "hello?"

  Wilbur blushed, "oh! Hello! Uhm- are you Ariel? Cause I think we were mermaid for each other!"

  She looked at him confused as he stuttered over his words, "it was a fish pun- you know like mer-MADE. Like we were made for each other-"

  Tommy facepalmed and shook his head.

  The girl giggled a bit, "ohhhh. Okay, yeah I get it. That was cute. I'm Sally."

  "Uhm- very nice to meet you. I have been watching you for a while- not watching sorry.. I have seen you before, you're Niki's friend, right?"

  Sally nodded, "yes! You must be Wilbur then. You match her description very well!"

  "She talks about me to you? It's all good things right?" Wilbur asked quickly.

  "Of course. I don't see Niki saying anything mean about anyone anyways."

  "Yeah, that's true.."

  "So, is that your friend?" Sally asked, looking at Tommy.

  "Oh- that's actually my adopted brother. His name is Tommy."

"Well you guys kidnap-" Tommy started to say, but Wilbur glared at him, "I mean- yup. Adopted brother, but it feels like we are real brothers. He's just so nice and amazing and... yeah."

  "Aww. Well that's really sweet," Sally smiled.

  "Sally!! I'm back!!" Someone called from farther away in the creek.

  "Oh- hold on-" Sally said and turned to the other girl, "hi Niki!!"

  Niki swam over to them quickly, "hi Wil! Hi blonde kid."

  "Hello, Niki! This is my new brother, Tommy!" Wilbur beamed as he showed off Tommy.

  "Aw! Well hello, Tommy!" Niki waved and looked over to Sally, "wait till I tell you about the baking competition!"

  "Alright alright," Sally giggled softly and glanced back at Wilbur, "well we will see you both later then!"

  Wilbur nodded, "yes! I mean- that sounds great."

  Both girls swam away as Niki talked about the competition.

  Wilbur smiled like an idiot as he watched Sally swim off, "she's pretty."

  Tommy rolled his eyes, "yeah whatever, she probably thought you were ugly. Now come on let's go."

  Tommy started dragging Wilbur away back to the house.
