It all started out as just a regular, (but still totally sweet) day riden' the EAC. Squirt and the other little dudes were playing hide-and-seek around us. Everything was a-ok. Awesome.
Then the current, like, took us over this huge jellyfish forest. Wouldn't want to be stuck in there, man! You'd have to have some mega thrill needs to so swimming in there, dude. But as I gazed into that mass of pink jellies, I, like, saw these two little fish racing through them. One was blue and the other was orange with white stripes. The little blue one was, like, totally loosing it, man. The stripped one wasn't doing much better.
"Yo, dudes! Hold up," I called out to my fellow turtles. "Check out those bitty fish down there taken' on the jellies!"
"Whoa!" Squirt exclaimed as he swam up to me.
"Yeah," I said. "Hey, maybe we should, like, help 'em out. They don't look too good." The other turtles agreed, and so we exited the EAC and drifted down to them. They had just exited the jellies, but they were so gone, man. I scooped up the orange one onto my back and I saw my dude friend, Spike, get Little Blue on his shell. We swam back up and reentered the EAC.
"Dude, are they gonna be all right?" Squirt squeaked.
"No worries, dude," I said to my offspring as we continued to ride the EAC. "I reckon they're going to be a-ok in no time."
"Sweet," Squirt said with a smile. I smiled back, happy that we had, like, helped the little fish out, you know? I watched Squirt speed away to ride the current for himself. Yeah, well, all right... they had received some pretty nasty stings, man. Little blue would have scars for the rest of her life, but you know what was totally awesome? She was the first one to recover! Sweet. Her memory wasn't too good, but we didn't care. It wasn't long before she was playing with Squirt and the other kids.
The Jellyman on my shell though, he couldn't focus, dude. But he lived! "Uh...what happened?" he asked.
"Oh, saw the whole thing, dude." I replied. "First you were like, 'whoa!' And we were like, 'whoa!' And you were like, 'whoa...'" I pulled some moves for effect, dude, to ya know, help him remember.
"What are you talking about?" Jellyman asked. Hmm...He still seemed a bit out of it.
"You bitty man!" I exclaimed. Like, who else was I talkin' about? "Taken' on the jellies. You have some serious thrill issues, dude. Awesome." My body shook as I gave a little chuckle. Jellyman didn't seem to like that much, though.
"Oh, my stomach..." he moaned.
"Whoa, no hurlin' on the shell, dude, okay? Just waxed it." That would be so totally uncool.
"Look, Mr. Turtle," he began. Whoa, that was uncool too.
"Whoa, dude. Mr. Turtle was my father." I told him, looking around to make sure no one had heard Jellyman. "Name's Crush."
"Crush? Really? Okay, Crush, I need to get to the East Australian Current. EAC. Do you know where that is?" Man, was it just me, or was this little dude more out of it then I thought?
"Oh, dude," I said as I raised one flipper to my forehead. This guy was unbelievable! Oh well, gotta go with it, man. "You're riden' it dude! Check it out!" He turned around and slowly swam up a bit to look over my shell. His face like, totally lit up when he saw all the other Turtles and other fish crusin' the EAC with me. Hmm... Maybe I should warn him about this totally awesome, really fast bit coming up though. "All right, grab shell, dude!" I shouted over my shoulder as we entered the speeding vortex.
"Grab what?" he shouted, but by then it was too late, dude. He, like, latched onto the front of my shell and held on for dear life as we blew through the current at, like, top speed.
"Righteous! Righteous!" I screamed in, like, pure pleasure from the rush, dude. Man, THIS was a thrill. Much safer then swimming with jellies, too, dude.
Awesome.
AN/ And so, there you go, dudes! Don't worry; I'll get the rest of it done eventually... Please R+R!
