A tail of a hero

CHAPTER THREE (at the beach)

Splash! It had been three days after that villain was in town. me, Kaida and Akio were all at the beach, having a great time swimming and more.

"Ayia! Come on! Let's build a sandcastle." Kaida pleaded. her shovels and buckets were in her arms. I sighed.

"alright..." I said, rolling my eyes and smirking.

"Yayy!" Kaida said as she ran to a nice sandy spot, wobbling as she tried not to drop anything. I followed her, trying not to laugh. "what?" she asked as she noticed me with my hand covering my mouth, hiding a smile.

"oh, its nothing." I said looking away from her. she sat down and everything in her arms fell to the ground, some landing in her lap.

"alright, where should we start?" she said as she picked up one of the buckets. I grabbed a small red shovel.

"let's just get dirt in the bucket." I said as I stuck it in the sand and started to dig a small hole, putting the sand in the bucket.

When we finished the sandcastle, the sun started to set, making the sky pink and purple. Akio dug a mote around the castle.

"there!" he said as he stood up. Me and Kaida looked at it. It was small but it looked ok. It had all kinds of sized seashells covering it.

"Yayyy!!" Kaida spun around and grabbed me and Akio in a big group hug.

"oof." We said as she squeezed us.

"alright you guys, lets head home." Akio said as he grabbed his shoes and his shirt.

"can we come back tomorrow?" Kaida asked in a hopeful voice. He turned to us.

"umm... I don't know." He looked at the ground and started to walk away from us.

"well, lets go eat something. I'm hungry." I told him.

"yeah! Me too!" Kaida exclaimed. Akio rolled his eyes and kept walking.

"fine. If you can cache me first." He dropped his shoes and shirt on the beach as he dashed away.

"HEY!! No fare!" I said as I chased after him.

"wait for me!" Kaida cried as she flew after us. Akio looked back at us, a smile on his face. when he saw how close I was to him he blinked in surprise at me. I reached out at him, my fingers only half an inch from his tail. He poled his tail away and smiled at me as he started to shrink.

"NO!! you're such a cheater! You know I can't do that!" I said as Akio shrunk so much his pans fell to the ground. A small tan cat jumped away from them, still running away. Kaida flu over me, arms outstretched towards the cat. He looked up and dashed away, dodging her hands. Kaida lost her balance and fell to the ground, rolling and landing upside down in a pile of sand.

"ow..." she moaned, grabbing at her head in pane. I glared at Akio the cat and started to run even faster. He didn't notice. I ran right beside him; his tail was so close. I reached for it... and grabbed it.

"MEAHOW!" he cried and turned to me, biting my hand.

"Ah!" I yanked my hand back, glaring at him. "you bit me!" I said. He just glared at me; his green eyes glaring at me. "Hey! Don't look at me like that! You're the one that wanted us to cache you." he growled at me, knowing I was right. Me and him started to walk back to where he left his clothes. Sitting on his pants, he started to go back to normal, putting his clothes back on.

"don't grab me by the tail." He growled. Walking back to get his shoes and shirt. Kaida met us halfway, rubbing her head. "alright... let's go eat." He huffed in defeat.

"yayy!" Kaida said happily.
