Chapter 7

"Are we there yet?" Bubbles asks Gill.

"No." Gill says, annoyed with the same question.

"How far do you think?" Bloat asks. Gill rolls his eyes. He wants Aqua Village to be right in front of him.

Gurgle glances over to Deb. The sun's rays coming through the water hit her red eyes to make them sparkle like diamonds. She notices Gurgle looking at her. She turns away and tries to swim a bit faster.

"But soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Deb is the sun! Arise fair sun and kill the envious moon, who is already sick and pale with grief that thou her maid art far more fair than she. Be not her maid since she is envious. Her vestal livery is but sick and green and nine but fools do wear it. Cast it off. It is my lady, O, it is my love! O that she knew she were! She speaks, yet she says nothing. What of that? Her eye discourses, I will answer it. I am too bold. 'Tis not me she speaks. Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven, having some business, do entreat her eyes to twinkle in their spheres till they return. What if her eyes were there, they in her head? The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars as daylight doth a lamp. Hey eyes in heaven would through the airy region stream so bright that birds would sing and think it were not night. See how she leans her cheek upon her hand. I that I were a glove upon that hand, that I might touch that cheek!" Gurgle sighs to himself, saying a scene from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.

"Deb, did you hear what Gurgle said?" Peach asks Deb, trying to end the fight.

"Tell Gurgle it was very sweet. I would have enjoyed it more if he hadn't made fun of my sister! Go on a hook!" Deb swims past Peach.

Gurgle gives a sigh of disappointment. He tries to make her forgive him but nothing works.

"She'll forgive you." Peach says reassuringly. Suddenly, the group stops. All they see is colourful coral. Bright fish swim in all directions, busy to get where they need to go.

"Are we there yet?" Bubbles ask.

"Yea and I think I see Sharkbait." Gill says, a grin appears on his face. Nemo turns and sees Gill. He quickly swims to him.

"Gill! You're here!" Nemo says excitedly.

"Glad you found your dad." Gill says noticing Marlin and Dory. Soon, the happy reunion turns to distress.

"Gill, we can't find Squirt!" Nemo suddenly says.

"Who's Squirt?" Gill asks.

"It's this really cute little sea turtle!" Dory says.

"Where did he go?" Gill asks.

"We don't know! He wasn't here this morning and he isn't anywhere! And...and...we have to find him!" Nemo says sounding more upset by the minute.

"Don't worry, Sharkbait, we'll help you look for Squirt. Right, guys?" Gill turns to his friends. Everyone looks enthusiastic to find Squirt accept for Deb and Gurgle.

"I'll look for the cute sea turtle." Deb says, suddenly interested, "As long as Gurgle doesn't come with near me!"

"Deb and Gurgle are having a fight." Bubbles explains to Nemo.

"Fine. Deb, you say on the far right, Gurgle, you stay on the far left. There, not we'll all happy." Gill says.

"Let's find Squirt!" Peach exclaims, trying to make the group a bit peppier.


Squirt pants as he tries to swim faster. He has no idea where he's going. He wants to head home, but, where is home? Thinking about his dad and siblings makes him go faster.

It almost seems to same rocks pass him. Is he going in circles? Can he make it home? What if a shark gets him? Soon, Squirt commands himself to relax. Nothing bad will happen, it isn't like this is a story when the authors enjoy tormenting their character's lives. No, not this story.

Suddenly, a net comes from behind Squirt. The net swipes him from the water, along with some fish too. The sea creatures find themselves on the deck of a boat. When all seems bad, it gets worse. A white bird lands on the mast and cocks its head to the right.

"Mine?" The bird says. Another comes with the same question,

"Mine?" Suddenly, a giant hand picks Squirt up. Squirt stares into the eyes of an odd creature. This must be a two legged.

"What's this sea turtle doing in the net?" The man asks a woman.

"I dunno, it's not like he can swim into a net." Comes the sarcastic response.

"Carma, really, we can't take him back to the fishery and we can't just put him back." The man says.

"It's a turtle. It'll find its own way home." Carma says.

"Look at it!" The man says. Carma turns to see Squirt doing his world famous puppy-dog-pout. Carma's bottom lip trembles.

"We'll take him to the aquarium. It's along the way." Carma says, developing a soft spot for Squirt.

"Hear that, little buddy? You'll make new friends with lots of new sea turtles." The man says. Squirt awaits for his arrival to an 'aquarium'. Squirt regrets swimming away. Now, all he wants to do is to find Nemo.
