Narwhal here, narwhal there

Narwhal in Kai's room, and one in Jays.

Eight narwhal filled rooms.

Narwhals free from the evil clutches of trash.

Trash which was piling up in the sea

" Mia, this is bad." Jay commented as he watched his sister run around the house with her vet tools.

" It's all in the life of a veterinarian!" She called, entering Lloyd's room.

Jay watched as Mia darted from room to room, her small figure a blur of motion as she tended to the narwhals with the utmost care. "Mia, you can’t keep bringing every sea creature home," Jay said, trying to keep his voice gentle. "We’re running out of space. And, um, narwhals don’t belong in the house."

Mia popped her head out of Lloyd’s room, where she had just finished checking on one of the narwhals. "But they needed help!" she insisted, her eyes wide with determination. "The ocean is full of trash, and it’s hurting them. What else was I supposed to do?"

Jay sighed, knowing there was no arguing with Mia when she was in one of her protective moods. "Okay, okay," he conceded, "but we need a plan. We can’t keep them here forever."

Mia nodded, understanding but still reluctant. "I know," she admitted. "I’ll figure something out. But for now, they need rest and care." She disappeared back into Lloyd’s room, where the narwhal made a gentle, contented sound as she adjusted its makeshift bed.

Jay watched her for a moment longer, then went to find Kai. "We’ve got a narwhal situation," he said as soon as he found his brother.

Kai raised an eyebrow. "A narwhal situation?"

Jay nodded. "Eight of them. In the house. Mia’s playing veterinarian, and I’m pretty sure the bathroom is now a temporary ocean."

Kai groaned. "Of course it is."

The two brothers exchanged a glance, both of them aware that this was going to be a long day. They had faced villains, monsters, and world-ending threats, but nothing quite like a house full of narwhals.

"Let’s just hope she doesn’t try to keep them," Kai muttered as they headed towards Lloyd’s room to check on the situation themselves.

Mia knelt beside one of the five narwhals in Lloyd’s room, gently patting its side. "It’s okay, buddy," she murmured soothingly, her voice filled with compassion. The narwhal made a soft noise, as if in response, and Mia smiled, giving it one last reassuring pat before standing up.

Without missing a beat, she zoomed past her brothers, who barely had time to react before she disappeared into Jay’s room. Jay and Kai exchanged a look of mild concern and followed her quickly.

As soon as they entered Jay’s room, they were hit with a pungent smell—like a mix of seawater and fish. Jay grimaced, pinching his nose. "Ugh, Mia! My room smells like a fish market!"

Mia was already by the side of another narwhal, completely unfazed by the smell. She checked its flipper and nodded to herself. "Sorry, Jay. I think this one needed some extra attention. But don’t worry, I’ll get rid of the smell... eventually."

Jay sighed, knowing that 'eventually' could mean anything from an hour to several days. "I don’t know what’s worse," he muttered to Kai, "the smell or the fact that we have narwhals in the house."

Kai shrugged, trying to be supportive. "Well, at least she’s doing something good. And hey, it’s not every day you can say you’ve had narwhals in your room, right?"
