A/N: I've had a few readers who were maybe just a LITTLE let down by the ending of the story, so in response I have provided an additional scene that was "accidentally" left out when it was posted. I have let the editor go with a stern warning not to do it again, and hopefully I won't. But no promises *wink*
"You know, Ladyfish, since I lost my glasses in that school of tuna I'm just going to have retire. I can't see without 'em" Henry lamented as he swam slowly through the water. He could see vague shapes around him, but the details were quite lost due to his limited vision.
"But Henry," the female fish beside him countered "I can be your eyes! You did it before with Crusty."
"Thanks for offering, but that was during the war when I had to if I wanted to save my country. It's peacetime now, at least as far as I'm concerned. I've put in my time; the Navy has plenty of fine officers to guard America now. I'm just going to spend my days with you now. Do you mind?"
"Do I mind? What a silly thing to ask!" Ladyfish said as she swam a few circles around Henry, tickling him in all the right spots with a deft touch of her fin. "Where do you want to go?"
"I don't know; I always wanted to visit Tahiti, I suppose we could go there! I've seen books with beautiful color pictures of some of the fish there."
"I don't know what books are. What are pictures? Are they like pincers?" she asked with a touch of alarm.
"No, they're just something you look at and they're perfectly safe. But I do kind of wonder who ended up with my glasses..."
