Gray shook. He saw Hokuu following Takiza, he swam further but before he even knew what he was doing, he had been pushed backwards by his friend, Barkley. Barkley and Gray stood there watching Takiza use his Shark-Kata against his old shiro: Hoku. Hoku was an evil frilled shark belonging to the Underwaters. He was now fighting Takiza, but Gray knew this woudn't end well. One more time he swam further, this time, stopped by Snork. He stared at Snork for a moment then stared back at Takiza. His eyes glittered in dark, and his enormous tail kept moving back and forth. He could just make out a little figure and a bigger one and some green light in the middle. He was starting to panic. What if Takiza died? What if Hoku became Seazerain? When he cleared this thoughts out of his head he stopped moving. The little figure was-
" Gray, Gray wake up"
He opened his eyes. He could just make out a little fish swimming round him.
" Gray are you OK?"
" Yea yea.." he lied.
" You were shaking madly, i thought you would just faint!", now Gray could see it was Barkley speaking.
" Just had this nightmare again" Gray sighed and looked around for everyone else, but he just couldn't see them.
" Where are the others?" Gray muttered to Barkley.
" I reckon they just went swimming, they'll be back in any minute" said Barkley.
" Yea right" he mumbled.
Gray swam out of sight with Barkley behind him, he didn't know what he was doing or where was he going, he just kept thinking if Hoku might still be alive... and this was a terrible nightmare which made him stop suddenly. If Hoku was alive... No he couldn't be. But Gray had this creepy feeling that somehow, Hoku had managed to "escape" from swimming the Sparkle Blue.
