I saw a person with blue clothes and a net come closer to the tank. All the other fishes in the tank got excited when they realized they might be chosen. A 10 year old boy pressed his face against the glass and pointed at me. I got scared when I realized I'll be going outside of the tank for the first time. "Don't worry I bet you'll have a lot of good attributes to offer the boy's tank," my friend smiled as he said that. "Thanks, I really hope we end up in the same tank," I said empathetic.
"That fish is a really good choice. It's very unique," I could hear the woman's voice even in the water. "I want the fish next to him too," the little boy said. I tried hiding behind the rocks, but eventually the net scooped me up. The five seconds when I had to get out of the tank to get to the water bag was horrible. I felt my gills drying up and it looked like my friend was going through the same thing as well. I was happy to be in water again even if it wasn't a lot. We were both swimming around the bag, excited to go to my new home. The boy took one look at us, smiled, and walked out with his parents.
