"Here we are mateys" I exclaimed, "where is here exactly?" Saber questioned, "take a look for yourself" I said gesturing to the gup-C's windscreen, saber walked to the front of the ship "fest your peepers on that" I remarked pointing towards an old shipwreck, "wow, I didn't know that existed" saber exclaimed with a smile, "that's not it, if what I'm led to believe is true then this should be the ship of.." I paused for dramatic effect, "midnight moon" I finished, saber stared at me wide eyed "you okay sab?" Kateleen asked placing a paw on saber's shoulder, "yeah.." saber replied quietly, "I'm sorry treasure, if this is too much we can head back to the Octo-" "no, it's fine" saber snapped interrupting me, she started towards the back of the gup and picked up an air tank, placed it on her back and activated her diving helmet before jumping through the ship's hatch and into the water

"That could've gone better" I sighed, "well, you meant well but I'd imagine it's a lot to take in at once" Kateleen reasoned, "true" I responded, there was a knock on the windscreen, Kate cat and I turned to see saber "are you guys coming or not?" She asked impatiently, "aye" I replied handing Kate an air tank, I pulled an air tank on meself as Kateleen activated her helmet and jumped in the water, I quickly followed suit "this could be a long day" I thought as I swam to catch up to me sister and daughter, I hope saber's not too mad at me

Am I happy that dad found an old shipwreck to explore? Yes, am I happy that it might of belonged to midnight moon who might of been my biological mother? Maybe, if this ship was captained by midnight moon when it was seaworthy that would be kinda cool but if she was my mother I wouldn't know what to think

I was so wrapped up in my own thoughts that I accidentally tripped over a creature buried beneath the sand "that one hurt" I remarked picking myself up off the sea floor, "watch where you're walking" the creature snapped in a New York accent before swimming out of the cloud of sand that surged through the area revealing itself to be a shovel-nosed guitar fish, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you" I apologize, "I had this patch of sand just the way I liked it and I certainly don't appreciate you coming in and missing it up" the guitar fish shouted angrily in my face, "so that's how you want to play huh? I did apologize you know?" I growled, the guitar fish backed off and stared at me for a moment before swimming off having grown tried of the argument

"Well, he was certainly rude" I sighed shaking my head in displeasure, "you okay saber? What was all that commotion  about?" Dad asked as him and Kateleen swam towards me, "yes I'm fine...that shovel-nosed guitar fish clearly had no interest in talking civilly" I explained in annoyed tone, "at least he wasn't an electric torpedo ray" I added aiming a playful smirk at Kwazii, "really?" He asked, "well, I'm not the one who got zapped" I remarked with a small laugh, "now you two let's not fall out just yet" Kateleen said in a motherly tone, I admit this may be more fun than I thought it would be
