Keith lost the smile on his face as he looked at me. "Miracle i'll swim back with you tomorrow morning the moon is almost up and every one want's to see you" I nodded with a smile. "okay i wont be long i just have to say my goodbye's" Keith nodded and swam beside me whispering in my ear. "some one has come to greet you, look" Following to were his finger was pointing i seen my sea horse i had named her rain drop a day before i was washed away. "Rain Drop!" my voice was full of joy as i held my hands out to hug my giant white sea horse. she was about twice my size with blue eye's and white color, her tail gingerly curled in to a swirl as she swam in to my hug. Wrapping my arm's around her i could hear her thought's she was as surprised to see me as i was to see her. As she nestled in to my side i spoke to her softly. "hey beautiful, how you been?" She responded with a snort and showed me her thought's. She had been looking for me all those year's with Keith, every day since i disappeared her and Keith started hunting for me.
It was hard to believe i had been gone for so long. "yea i know thirteen years is a long time rain, but I'm home now so.." Looking strait in her eye she new what i meant and we both got that wild look in our eye's. "how about a ride" I smiled as she swam under me i gently clung to her thick neck and we took off cutting through the water like a seal after it's meal. I looked down at Keith as he talked to Kiran pointing at rain drop and i. "You see that Kiran not ever has a water dweller and a creature had such a connection as that" Kiran's eye's followed us watching in awe as we zoomed passed the two boy's. I was truly happy to be with my faithful friend. We came to a stop as Kiran started talking. "Miracle can i ride with you?" I seen Keith's sea horse magenta come speeding towards us then looked back to Kiran. "yes of course, remind me we have to get you a sea horse" I moved back slightly making room for Kiran in front of me. "hold on to her neck but not to tightly" he nodded as he gently placed his arm's around her. Keith came over beside us on magenta. he looked at me and Kiran and spoke first to the young cheerful boy in front of me. "you look like a warrior sitting on rain drop" Kiran's face brightened even more as he let out a short laugh. Turning to me Keith started teasing me just like when we were still children. "bet i can make it back before you" his voice was smug and soothing inside my heart was buzzing and rain drop felt it to. "Keith we are not kids any more" I was laughing as his eye brows shot up wrinkling his perfect forehead. "well we missed out on allot of time being kids so what you say" The smile on my face got wider as Kiran looked through my thoughts and shouted. "yea Haw!!" He readied himself for the take off and i responded to Keith. "i say i never did get the concept of growing up" I flashed him a smile and took off in front of him. "NO FAIR YOU DIDN'T SAY GO!" we were all laughing as we passed a kelp patch surrounded by fish.
Small turtles were searching for their mother's as baby manatees feasted on grass beds laid deep in the waters sand. Oh how i missed this, the fish surrounding you every where you look, the moonlight coming through the water, playing with friends along with your faithfull sea horse and my favorite part was laughing so hard you sides hurt as the sound of your laughed echoed through the waters waves making the fish scurry away. It was wonderful and about an hour later the clam palace came into view it had not changed to much there was still big door's and moss growing all over the magnificent boat. we came to a gliding stop as we reached the door. Slowly i got off as Kiran swam off into the palace and Keith came up beside me. "welcome home princess" Keith had always's called me princess i was sure my parent's would name me that but i went missing before they had the chance to. Not long after Kiran went in he came back out with crowd of people and two on either side of him. One was a women she was stunning with her Orange hair and blue eye's. Her body and tail moved gracefully as she made her way towards me. But the man on the right side of Kiran had changed his chest was no longer muscular as i once remembered and his green eye's were full of sadness and grief. Mom and dad it was them here just a few feet away.. they were here!. "MOM, DAD!" I couldn't contain my joy and swam as fast as i could to meet them. mom opened her arms as a huge smile came to her shinning face. "your home" her voice was soft and full of relief and happiness. She took me into her arm's as my dad came over with a chubby stomach from year's of worry and loss.
