Note: This is my first story I have ever written so don't judge so hard, thanks and enjoy.
"The ocean" the mother dolichorhynchop thought to her self. Where she was born and raised. She had been swimming for miles and reached the end of her journey. She was a couple months pregnant with two baby dolichorhynchops and she was nearing her birthplace where she would soon give birth to her own children. As her own mother had done before her she would give birth where her family had done it for multiple generations. Her mate would have been there to witness it but he had been killed trying to protect her.
She saw a shallow spot close to the surface of the water and immediately recognized it. "HUH, we made it, " she said with a very exhausted voice. She scanned around the area and saw a couple other mother dolichorhynchops or Dollies giving birth and realized they were old child hood friends that had survived the dangerous journey they all faced. Many had died or got separated from a group and were lost.
After she observed the area, a pain welled up inside of her. She grunted and looked under herself. She could see her first child emerging from her underside. After the baby Dolly had completely removed its self from its mother, it swam up to its mother's face and nuzzled it. It was a boy. He was the same exact shade of grey-blue as his mother. She quickly noticed the pain hadn't gone away as the other baby Dolly emerged. This one was a female Dolichorhynchop. She was a darker shade than her brother and mother. She swam up to her mother as her brother just watched her. She nuzzled her. The mother looked over what she had just brought into the world, two beautiful creations. She smiled "Welcome to life children," she said softly and soothingly to her new children.
They looked immediately at their mother and swam up close to her. Hearing their mother's voice seemed to sooth them. The mother Dolly looked at her children as they looked up to her with smiles on their faces.
"Well what to call you two then," she thought of a couple names and two perfect names clicked in her head. She pointed at the male and said, "You will be called Edward." He seemed to like the name he smiled and backed up giving his sister room to swim up to their mother. "You," the mother looked at her daughter, "your name will be Carlia." She nuzzled her mother and smiled.
