Author's note: Hey guys I'm back! I haven't had any ideas for any Octonauts stories in a while so I ventured out and did other stories on different TV shows. I finally got a good idea for an Octonauts story so here I am! Just a FYI I would recommend that you read my other Octonaut story "A New Change" before you read this story. This story is about what happens after the events of "A New Change". I will try and post one chapter a week but I'm in school so sometimes there may not be a chapter for every week. I have to stay focused in school. I will do my best! Also, I DO NOT OWN OCTONAUTS BUT I OWN THE CHARACTER I CREATED WHICH IS CHRISTINA MORRIS. And please review what you think! Here is chapter one!

Things have been calm for the Octonauts for the last six months.

They went on missions like always but they weren't too intense or exciting.

Their new member of the Octonauts Christina Morris, a human from Washington, DC who is an author, joined them six months before. She didn't get the normal journey to the Octopod like the rest of the crew did. On her way to the Octopod, a storm hit. She fell off the boat she was traveling in and she washed up on a beach. While she was out cold she hit her head as a result of that, she got amnesia. She did not remember who she was or anything. She was later found on a beach by the Octonauts. They asked her what her name was but she couldn't remember what it was. She then decided that her name is Chris. She was first introduced to the Octonauts as Chris. The Octonauts did not know that she was their lost crewmember. Everyone thought she was just a mysterious girl who washed up on a beach from the unknown. Once Chris's amnesia went away, her memory returned and she realized exactly where she was and who she is. Chris revealed to the Octonauts that she is Christina Morris the lost crew member. All of the Octonauts were shocked that she was here all along and excited to finally meet her. Now her adventures with the Octonauts began…

Christina Morris sighed with happiness while she brushed her fingers through her brown hair.

She was in her office and just finished an article she wrote for "National Sea-ographic" magazine for people all over the world to read.

She written about a sea creature that the Octonauts encountered. The creature was a dolphin.

Peso was driving the Gup E around and found it trying to swim but its fin was injured.

The dolphin was not in good shape.

Peso stopped and examined the dolphin and decided to take it back to the Octopod.

The dolphin said her name was Delphine.

Peso took her to the Octopod in the Gup E to the medical bay.

She had a broken fin and Peso put a cast on her fin.

Her fin would take months of healing, Peso told her that she had to come by the Octopod once a day to be checked on.

Delphine's fin healed after a few months and Peso finally took the cast off.

The Octonauts got to meet all of Delphine's family at her party her family threw her.

It was so much fun!

Christina thought Delphine's story needed to be shared with the world so she thought Delphine was the perfect creature to write about.

Sometimes if the Octonauts were in the area that Delphine lived in, they would make plans to visit her.

Christina has only been an Octonaut for six months, those six months have been the best months of her life.

Even though she almost died on her journey to the Octopod.

She has had extraordinary opportunities being an Octonaut.

She got to do what she loves most (writing).

She spends most of her time writing articles and writing new books about sea creatures.

Sometimes her stories were nonfiction which usually are about sea creatures her and the Octonauts meet.

While other stories are fiction that she makes up herself.

She was unsure whether fiction or non-fiction was her favorite.

Christina really liked writing in both of those areas.

When she didn't have any writing to do, she got to tag along on missions with some of the Octonauts.

Even though missions aren't part of her profession, she enjoys going.

Sometimes if she didn't want to go on missions she would help Dashi in the HQ.

She knew basic knowledge about computers from taking computer classes in high school.

Not only did she help out Dashi in HQ but sometimes she needed some girl talk.

Taking to a guy was fine, but sometimes she needed to talk to a girl one on one.

Her, Dashi and Tweak are the only female Octonauts so there weren't many girls to talk to.

Christina doesn't talk to Tweak much.

Christina had nothing against the rabbit, Tweak was always in the Launch Bay working on the gups doing engineering stuff.

Christina isn't knowledgeable with engineering so she wouldn't be much help.

Dashi, however was different.

Dashi's job is working the computers in the HQ and doing photography.

She was around Dashi more than Tweak.

Dashi usually took pictures for Christina to use in her stories.

If Christina needed help with facts and information about a sea creature she usually went to Shellington.

Shellington was familiar with facts and information about the sea and sea creatures, he was very helpful with that category.

He is a marine biologist after all.

Ever since she became an Octonaut she viewed everything differently.

Life back home wasn't like being on the Octopod.

When she was in Elementary school, she was diagnosed with a learning disability.

School was difficult for her.

Sometimes the kids in her class made fun of her.

She had to have help from tutors with her classes.

And she had to study really hard to make good grades.

Ever since she was younger, she always loved to read.

As Christina got older she began to love writing also.

When she entered high school, she decided that she wanted to become a writer and get a degree in Journalism.

At home she never felt like she didn't have a purpose.

However, when she stepped aboard the Octopod, that feeling disappeared.

She was never made fun of by her fellow crewmates.

Each and every one of them were nice and friendly toward her.

They were all welcoming when she joined the Octonauts.

There were hardly any awkward feelings when she first arrived.

Christina isn't very shy and makes friends easily.

But there was one member of the Octonauts that stood out.

Kwazii.

Ever since she first saw him there was something about him that was different than the rest of the crew.

He was a dare-devil, always had a story to tell and always was up for an adventure.

She liked his sense of adventure!

She always liked the idea of an "adventure".

Christina had never met anyone like him.

Kwazii was the lieutenant of the crew.

His job was to assist Captain Barnacles.

Most of the time he was with Barnacles wherever he was.

At times when Barnacles is absent or "doing something at the moment" he would take the place of Barnacles.

Kwazii has mentioned to her before if something ever happened to Barnacles, he would become Captain.

When Christina first met Kwazii she had amnesia but she was glad that she remembered that day.

Little did she know she was going to meet her future boyfriend that day.

Author's note: This is a flash back from my other story "A New Change."

Barnacles pushed her in a wheelchair to the kitchen for breakfast and to meet everyone.

When Christina, Barnacles and Peso entered the room, Kwazii looked at her and said, "Shiver me whisker she is so beautif…." Then he stopped himself.

He hoped no one would notice what he said but Christina was sure everyone noticed but didn't say anything.

Then after that Christina started to develop a crush on him.

A few days after that, Christina's amnesia was gone and she realized who she really was.

The next day, the ceremony where she officially became an Octonaut happened.

"Christina, can you come with me for a little while?" Kwazii asked.

"Sure!" She replied.

She had no clue what was going on.

Kwazii and Christina arrived at a beach and they both talked for a while.

Christina talked about herself and Kwazii talked about himself.

They never had the chance to actually talk one on one so being alone felt really nice.

"Kwazii, the sunset is beautiful!" Christina exclaimed.

"Do you what else is beautiful?" Kwazii asked.

"You! Christina will you go out with me?"

Christina was shocked.

Yes, she liked him too!

How could she say no?

"Yes!" Christina smiled.

The two hugged for a long time.

Neither one was sure how long it really was.

But it didn't matter.

Because they now had each other.

END OF FLASHBACK

Christina knew even six months before that she didn't make a mistake about going out with Kwazii.

Her life was better than it was before.

Kwazii was a good boyfriend.

He was there to comfort her when she was feeling stressed or wasn't feeling great.

She was there to also comfort him when he was feeling stressed or wasn't having the best day.

But they haven't had their first kiss.

Christina wasn't sure why she was stressing so much about it.

Maybe because it would be her FIRST kiss ever.

And Kwazii really hasn't been his pirate self for the last few days.

Kwazii didn't tell her what was wrong because he didn't want her to worry about it or be upset.

She was unsure what was going on.

But she needed to be there for him.

No matter what.
