In its earliest days, the Earth was covered by a vast ocean. Bugs and fish swam throughout corals and plants of all kinds, even underwater trees grew on the sandy ocean floor. A small creature, not so fishy or buggy looking, began waking up. It opened it's eyes and found itself surrounded by shiny orange walls. They were very close and the creature didn't like it, so she began to try and push the walls away. The walls broke which released an immense amount of water and plant particles into the newborn's face. She squirmed away from the egg remnants and into open water. The water was shallow and she didn't like the looks of the sky coming closer so she turned around to find a tree full of the same round orbs she had just left. She felt sorry for them and began chipping away at each egg.
Once she had made a small crack in each egg she backed away, creatures like herself began emerging from the eggs but they were much smaller and have odd shaped fins. The first hatchling started to wonder if they were even the same as her but one awkwardly swam up to her and the rest followed. They all had large black eyes like herself and the same color sets. Wherever she went now, they followed, swimming oddly behind her. She began to warm up to them and think of them as family. Over the years they all grew, her being the biggest one. She had flippers that were tapered at the ends while her family had flippers that got thinner as the went down and ended in claws. More years passed and the female creature and her family somehow ended back up at the same tree they were born at. It was paler and more flowy with the current than when they had left. The creature led her family to the shallow part of the water, now curious to see what the sky looked like up close.
She crawled onto a light sugary sand and the sun immediately began to dry her out. It made her leathery skin feel strange and when she looked back, her family was walking around using their claws. The looks doubtedly at her own clawless flippers and hobbled over to them. They didn't want to leave they had said to her. She slid back into the water, sad and lonely, as her family stayed on the small island. With a wave of her tail fin, she was gone leaving a trail of bubbles. She wasn't gone long when she knew something was wrong. She turned around and hurled herself out of the water onto the island. A ripple passing under the island had caused it to crack through the middle and her family was seperated. The crack developed two cracks that each reached quickly towards her family. She yelled out when suddenly her family was bobbing up and down in pools of water. A series of waves had, out of nowhere, filled in the cracks just as they had reached the creatures. No one knows what saved the creatures of water that day, but one thing's for sure...they were saved to make a change, to carry on a legend.
