Preview:
Reef and the others had woken up from a loud crash sound. A tree had fallen down. They were all in the dining room, restless. As they started to talk, the door was thrown open. Lo, all wet, was breathing heavily. She had just come back from a run.
"You have to hurry! Quick!" she darted out of the house. Reef, Fin, Johnny, Ty, Broseph, Lance and Rip chased after her.
~Tides Around Me~
Quick To Jump
Hearing about the up coming hurricane that would provide the best waves for B.C, Johnny and Broseph were stoked. They told Reef, Fin, Lo and Emma. Hearing from Lo, Ty and Bummer told their friends. Now, more than 11 people were going to try and surf the waves of hurricane Grace.
Once every 15 years did Grace come and graced the surfers of B.C with her waves of glory. Everyone started to get ready for the hurricane. Lo and Fin bought new boards, Johnny and Broseph trained and had their boards fixed and retouched. Reef, Ty and Bummer (Andrew) did nothing but wait. While Emma was to busy trying to stay on her board longer than a minute.
It was nearing the week were Grace would hit for a whole seven days, they all decided to go to the beach. Reef and the others sat down after surfing, chatting about Grace. Reef smiled.
"I'll be the only one here to surf it." he smirked the way he usually did when his ego showed. Fin rolled her eyes.
"Why are you like that?"
Before he could answer, Broseph spoke.
"Say, ya guys plannin' on surfin' the Office?" they all started at each other, Reef nodded.
"Yeah, why bro?" he asked the surfing hippy. He smiled.
"I heard there was this rad surfin' joint somewhere around here that was only good when Grace came." Broseph sighed. "sadly, it was lost with Raquz, the old surfer. He was the last bro to surf Grace..." they were all silent. Reef laughed.
"That's stupid! A surf spot can't be lost! Who wants to help me find it before Grace comes?" Reef asked his lot of friends. Fin, Lo, Johnny, Broseph and Emma raised their hands. Reef frowned at Emma and Lo.
"I don't know about you two...don't you girls want to pamper yourselves instead?" Lo snorted, Emma looked down.
"What makes you think we would want that? We clearly raised our hands." Lo growled. Fin punched Reef's arm.
"Reef! They can help us--"
"No! Me and Emma will look for it ourselves!" Lo stood up and took Emma's arm. "Come on Emma, let's go!" Emma took her board and followed Lo. She looked back at them with a sorry face and looked back ahead of her.

"Did you find anything?" Lo asked tiredly as she collapsed on the sand, dirty and stung up by mosquitoes and red from poison ivy. Emma was just as dirty and itchy as Lo was when she sat down, her arms killing her. She dropped back to let the water wash up to her feet and semi cool her off. She shook her head.
"No...nothing..." she closed her eyes. "lets head home now, Lo. We've worked enough..."
"Alright, fine..." Lo slowly got up and helped Emma up. Together, they headed back.
--
"Where were you guys?" asked Reef, amused when they came in dirty. Emma sighed, looking down.
"We were looking for the place to surf at when Grace comes." Lo said in a matter-of-factly tone. Reef laughed, elbowing Broseph and Lance.
"You here that, dudes? Lo and Emma are going to find the resort for Grace!" he laughed along with them, faking to wipe a tear away from his eye. "that's a good laugh, girls, really. But we both know you can't."
Lo growled. "Of course we can! Won't we Emma?" she glanced over and Emma was sleeping on the coach, her head resting on her arm over the chair's wooden arm. Lo frowned, crossing her arms. "Emma!" Reef laughed.
"Wow, she's a big help." he began to laugh again with the boys. Lo sighed and walked off.
***
After three days of searching, Grace was near. Lo actually pushed Emma harder and harder, until Emma received bruises going through the forests and places Lo suggested - made - she should look. Reef announced that Broseph had found out that that the rumor was fake, created by Bummer, Lance, Rip and some of their friends. Lo was getting bossier and more angry with everyone, especially Emma and Reef.
The hurricane could be seen now and everyone was hyped; they wanted to surf those waves! Emma came back from another day of surfing. She stopped in front of Lo.
"I tried Lo, I can't find anything that looks like a place for Grace--"
"You aren't trying hard enough!" Lo insisted, angrily. She did not want to lose to Reef, even if he stated it was a fake rumor. "Its okay though...I guess Reef wins. Just let it be now..." Lo walked away, depressed. Emma sighed. Great. Why couldn't I have found the surf site?
***
"SHE'S HERE!" Broseph screamed as he ran through the halls, knocking on the doors. They all opened their doors, tired. It was Friday morning and they were tired. The hotel was under construction, so they got today off. Reef growled.
"Grace better be here, bro, or you're gonna pay!"
"She is! Come look at the ocean!" he ran off, board in hand. Everyone quickly go into their surfer gear and grabbed their boards.
Broseph laughed madly when everyone stopped in front of the ocean, the waves crushing the sand with intense strength. Reef smiled.
"Oh yay! Time to party!" Reef, Johnny, Broseph and Ripper ran off into the water, Lance hurrying after them. Emma smiled, turning to Lo.
"At least we can surf the waves, right?" Lo crossed her arms.
"Yeah... I guess so." She picked her board up and headed off into the water. Ty walked pass Emma, his camera in hand. Emma sighed.
"You're going to film them?"
"Yup," he said with a smirk and short laugh. "Reef told me to. The guy can't take no as an answer." he turned the camera on and positioned it to film Reef and Johnny at the time. Emma decided to take the chance; she gripped her board.
"Um...Ty?"
"Hmm?"
She swallowed. "Would you mind filming..." he turned to looked at her and she blushed, looking down. "never mind." she smiled at him and he shrugged, turning back to film the clearly better surfers. Emma gripped her purple board and sighed, turning to go back to the house. She didn't feel like falling down in front of Ty, her crush!
Johnny came out from the water and watched as Emma ran into the woods with her board. He frowned. Where is she going?
***
Emma wasn't so sure she could handle the surfing here anymore. Ever since the kooks that invaded The Office, she hasn't really gained everyone's trust, especially Ty's. Although, Johnny was so supportive and caring, he even got a strike for to get rid of the kooks...she still thought she had to thank him for helping her, again. She sat in her bed, looking out the window at the night's sky. Grace was throwing branches, bushes, dirt and water around like there was no tomorrow. Lo and Fin were asleep; Emma decided she'd go surf Grace one time before she ended! She snuck out of bed and got into her surfing clothes and than pulled a sweater and jeans over them. She took her board and hurried out, silently. She made her way across the pathway and looked back at the house, and than hurried off.
Lo sat up after she heard Emma leave. I wonder where Emma went off to...Lo stood and dressed, popping on her shoes, she followed the tracks of show marks leading into the forest line from the pathway.
***
"Emma?" Lo called, looking around the dark forest. Lo knew it was at least five am, why would Emma head out at that time? "Emma, are you there?" Lo called out to a moving bush. A bunny hopped out, sniffing the ground. Lo sighed, crossing her arms to keep warm and from jumping out of her skin. Where could she be in a hurricane! That crazy girl...
Lo pushed pass the bushes and fell forward from a small bluff. She had followed foot marks through mud into the forest. It was strange, why would Emma stray off path? It wasn't the path to The Office. Lo sat up and looked out towards the ocean. The waves smashed down on the ocean with such force, it sounded like a bomb exploded. The water actually reached her, sprinkling down on her. Wow, Grace is too powerful! Lo stood up and frowned. Wait...Emma took her surf board...No!
"EMMA! EMMA!" she looked around the ocean. She spotted the purple board and the rider on top, a determined look on her face. She was wiggly, but she was staying on. Lo hurried to the shore line, ready to run back if another wave came. "EMMA! COME BACK, THE WAVES ARE TOO MUCH!"
The girl kept surfing, oblivious to her friend. Lo noticed the giant tidal wave and waved her hands. "EMMA WATCH OUT!" Emma turned her head to see Lo, pointing behind her. Emma looked behind her, slipping off her board just as the giant wave crashed down on her. Her board snapped in two, flying in different directions. Emma's body hit the water hard, than sank. Lo gasped.
"Emma!" Lo didn't know what to do! Should she go in after her? No, it would be useless, she wouldn't be able to bring her ran off, towards the house in a frantic race against time.

Reef and the others had woken up from a loud crashing sound. A tree had fallen down. They were all in the dining room, restless. As they started to talk, the door was thrown open. Lo, all wet, breathing heavily. She had just come back from a run. She said: "You have to hurry! Quick!" she darted out of the house. Reef, Fin, Johnny, Ty, Broseph, Lance and Rip chased after her.
Lo brought them through the forest and pointed to the ocean, breathless again. "Emma...fell in...I couldn't...get her..." Johnny's eyes went wide, he hurried forward, but Ty was already ahead of him, diving into the water with his clothes and shoes on. Emma's board pieces washed up to the shore and Fin hurried to them, frowning.
"No...Alberta..." Reef and the others came over to her, looking at the board. Lo coughed.
"I heard her leave the house and decided to follow her. I found her...she was surfing the biggest wave I've ever seen!" Reef and the others frowned.
"Why would she surf at night? On Grace's worse hurricane yet?"
"I don't kno--" Lo heard Ty splashed out of the water, carrying Emma. She wasn't breathing. Fin and Lo gasped, tears building up. Reef, Johnny and Lance came over. Broseph and the rest stayed with the girls.
Ty laid Emma straight on the sand and checked her pulse. She wasn't breathing; he paled. He made sure she was straight and did CPR. Once, twice, three and than four times, yet she wasn't breathing. Lo turned her head to Broseph's shoulder while Fin looked down. Ty swore, repeating the same thing again and again. Come on...come on...
Emma coughed out water, trying her best to fill her lungs with air. Johnny and everyone else gasped in surprise and happiness. Ty smiled. "Thank god you're okay..." she looked at him and frowned.
"I can't feel my legs..."
Everyone sat in silence. The storm clouds oddly parted quickly.
Okay....how was that? I thought of this story while I watched the newest episode of Stoked in Canada. I was thinking, what if Emma lost the most important thing to her? What if she was forced to stay on a beach resort and watch as everyone around her could do the one thing she's wanted to do since she was six?
