"Shark! I thought you were only a talking wolf!" Yelled John Egbert. Or Heir as I call him. "B-but-"started Dave. Well at least tried to because before he could finish his sentence he fainted. Dave Strider in front of people. The world must be coming to an end. "So if your going to be going around in human form you'll need a different name" Dirk started. "No. I like my name because it suits me well." I replied, not liking him trying to change stuff about me. Dirk scowled at me. And Vlaud who I was still sitting on. NAKED. "And how does that suit you! Mrs. Know-it-all!" He yelled. I couldn't take it. "To...much....pressure...not

...enough...water!" I practically yelled. I shift and run out of the room with Dirk,John, and Dave following me. 'When did Dave wake up?'I thought. As I ran I tapped into my 'shark senses'. They aren't all that special,just me being able to smell water. I easily found what I needed. Down in the basement,were the prisoners were drowned for being bad, there was a huge tank of water. At least 70ft.long and 472ft.deep. At least that's what the sticker said. I rocketed toward it. Going faster and faster.

When I came to the tank I jumped. I was so proud of myself that I let my speed slack in the jump. Before I could get to the water Dirk grabbed my tail. "No!" I screamed. "No,no,no! I an to close for this." I stated. And with that I flapped my giant wings so I could propel myself into the water. And Dirk of course. We plunged down going deeper and deeper. After a few seconds Dirk slowly let go and started trying to swim upwards. He tried and tried but couldn't quite pull himself up. We soon touched the bottom. And surprisingly he was still breathing. I winked at him and turned to the side showing him my gills that allowed me to breathe underwater. I was to busy to realize that Dirk was slowly and unwillingly opening his mouth. When I turned to face him his mouth was closed but he had small holes in between his lips that let water filter in. After a few seconds I realized the pressure down here was so great that it was squeezing his body making water go through his lips and into his lungs. As I hastily grabbed his arm I couldn't help but panic. He was cold. So with two big flaps of my waterproof wings I rocketed upwards. But Im so far down I don't think I'm going to make it. I kicked and thrashed with my paws. And flapped with my wings. Yet I still wasn't close enough. "Maybe I could...." I started to say but was cut off by Dirks gasp for air. The air I couldn't reach. So I kissed him. On the lips of course. But instead of it being for love I sucked the water from his lungs and replaced it with oxygen from my body. When I pulled away Dirk was staring at me. I'm not sure what the twinkle in his eyes is and I don't have time to ponder because it was only so long before he ran out of breath. Flapping my wings again I kept going up. Faster and faster I went, soon breaking the surface. As I flapped one last time I was in the air above the others. As they stood there with their mouths agape I set Dirk down by their feet and shifted back into my human form. But this time I had a shirt on. Dirks shirt. When I looked down Dirk was staring up at me with a smirk." Now your clothed" he stated as if it was normal. "Wait didn't the queen lock the door!" I yelled remembering her and the guards locking the door. "No" answered Vlaud"my mom locked the door across from our door. We set out tomorrow." We all just stared at Vlaud wondering how he knew all this.

When we got back to the room we shared we all got sleeping bags wich we had found in a corner. We all said our goodnights(except for Dirk) and went to sleep. Or at least tried to. For we were all to excited to sleep. We hummed,talked,and just stayed quiet until we all fell asleep around 2am. Well I did at least.
