Hi guys! I's time to meet the king! And for the record, I like to imagine Triton being a Cocker Spaniel here, while the queen was a Poodle, since Skye is a Cockapoo. Okay, that's enough babbling about dog breeds! Without further ado, Chapter Four!

A little later, in the royal palace, Skye was listening to her father's scorns.

"Skye, I do not like this habit of yours!"

"Yeah!" Zuma added. "Sewiously, that was our biggest concert of the year!"

At that moment, Rocky swam forward.

"Aw, come on, your majesty!" he protested. "She just wanted to live a little! Check out some shipwrecks, visit Joey… wait… oh no."

"Are you saying you went to the surface again!?" Skye nodded timidly. "Skye, when are you going to learn that Land-Pups are monsters? We already lost your mother because of them!"

"Daddy, maybe not all Land-Pups are like that!"

"Why, the very idea of… you know what? As long as you're living under my ocean, you'll obey my rules!"

"Fine!"

Skye then swam away, trying not to cry. Triton turned to Zuma.

"Zuma, do you think I was too hard on her?" he asked.

"Maybe a tiny bit, but she obviously needs constant supervision!" Zuma responded.

"Great idea! Go find her, and never let her out of your sight!"

"Wait, what? I wasn't implying me!" Zuma then paused for a second. "Okay, I'll do it, but I will not like it."

Zuma swam off to find Skye. Meanwhile, Skye was sulking in her secret grotto, where she kept all her Land-Pup stuff.

"Maybe he's right. Maybe there is something wrong with me." Skye said with a sigh. "I just don't see how a world that makes so many amazing things could be bad. Sometimes I wish I could be part of that world."

While Skye was reminiscing, Zuma had found her, and was appalled at all the Land-Pup articles she had. He was just about to confront her, when a large shadow appeared overhead.

"Ooh, what's that?" Skye wondered aloud before swimming up to see.

Chapter Four finished! Sorry about the wait, high school is brutal. See you when Skye makes it to the ship!
