(Shellington's pov)
I swam into a cave near the gup-A's wreckage, I looked around and didn't see much "better keep looking" I said aloud, this is going to take a while, I know kwazii and the captain have to be around here somewhere, the hard part is finding where they are exactly but like saber said we're bound to find them at some point

as i was swimming along I felt like something was watching me "um...hello?" I asked into the darkness of the cave, "why hello there" said a voice whose owner soon appeared, "jumping jellyfish, you're a cuttlefish" I said relieved, "that's right, um...are you lost?, I've never seen a sea otter around here before" the cuttlefish asked, "I'm not lost but my friends are, I came here to look for them" I explained,  "then allow me to be of some assistance, I know this cave inside and out" the cuttlefish offered, I noticed the cuttlefish was holding something with one of its tentacles "may I see what your holding?" I asked curious, "oh, this thing, I found it half-buried in the sand, you can keep it if you want, it's pretty useless" the cuttlefish explained, she handed me the object "jumping jellyfish, this is the captain's-"

"Shellington" I turned in the direction I heard my name come from and was relieved to see it was kwazii and captain barnacles, I sawm towards them and the cuttlefish followed "are you both alright?" I questioned concerned, "aye matey" kwazii responded, "wait, these are your friends?" The cuttlefish asked shocked, "yes, this is kwazii and captain barnacles, captain this cuttlefish found your octo-compass" I said handing it to him, "I thought polar bears ate guys like you" the cuttlefish said looking at me, "I may be a polar bear but I wouldn't hurt a shrimp" the captain laughed, kwazii nodded in agreement "aye, the captain ain't like most polar bears" he remarked,

"DAD" saber yelled grabbing our attention, her and peso swam towards us and saber wasted no time hugging kwazii, "ahoy me little treasure, I'm glad to see you too lass" kwazii laughed at Saber's excitement, "are you alright?" Peso asked, "we're alright peso" the captain reassured him, "thanks for all your help" I told the cuttlefish, "no problem, have a safe trip home and make sure these two don't get lost again" the cuttlefish remarked pointing a tentacle at kwazii and the captain, "don't worry, I'm sure they won't let that happen again" the captain laughed, we bid farewell to the cuttlefish and sawm back towards the gup-C, that reminds me, I still need to give saber her present
