We walked out of the room and to the right toward the water/land changer. We all walked in the room and sat down on the provided chairs. They were bolted to the floor so they wouldn't float around when the water came in. Tavien shut the door and quickly sat down by the lever to open the water doors. "Ready everyone? On the count of three. One.... Two.... Three."
As soon as he said three, he pulled the lever and ocean water flooded in from the outside. After ten seconds of touching the water everyone's legs were changing to tails. One by one we got up out of the chairs we were sitting in and swam out the door.
We gathered outside and shut the door behind us. "Ok. Now that that is taken care of, lets examine our tails.", Tavien stated. I looked around at everyone's tails expecting them to be the same. Well, everyone did have the same rainbow shimmer to them. Other than that, they were completely different.
My tail is bright blue. Emerald's tail is a bright seaweed green. Tavien's tail is bright blue like mine. Alyssa's is a bright purple. Dana's is a bright pinkish tan color that sparkles in the sun. Rebecca's tail is a light green, and Louis's tail is a light blue. Kai's tail is blue and so is Zane's.
"Well, has everyone taken in each others tail colors. They are important to remember.", Tavien said.
"Why do need to remember everyone's tail colors?", I asked.
"It's like clothes. People usually go by hair color and clothes to find someone in a crowd. Today is a big day. They are celebrating you guys' return to Aquadia, so there will be little more people than usual. That's why."
"Oh. Ok. Let's go."
"Nooooo.....",Tavien whined. "I'm the tour guide!"
"Ok. Fine. You're the tour guide. Now, whennnn are weeee goooooiiinnnggg?", I whined back.
"Patience. Patience.", he snapped, his blue tail flipping about in the water. "We are going..... Not right now."
"Urgghh.... Whyyyyyyy....."
"Because we're leaving now."
"Finallyyyy!!!! Thank you!"
"Whatever, but I'm the tour guide. I called dibs inside, don't you remember?"
"No. But, you want to know what I do remember? ZANE IS A CHICKEN!!!!!!"
"What? Where did that come from.", Zane asked.
"Remember? You pushed me in the water and ran away."
"Oh. That."
"Yeah......"
"Well, stop your bickering, guys, so we can get this show on the road.", Tavien said.
