Author's Note: Hey! Still one viewer! Sorry if writing the chapters takes awhile I've got a lot of test quizzes this month! Anyway,... Recap! Ronnie called all of Lenny's shark friends to come over and her brother. Lenny finds out that Angie and some other fish Oscar betrayed got kidnapped! He wants to save them, but he can't go back there without anyone seeing him. Then he finds out that Oscar is coming to find him. Lenny doesn't think that's very smart on Oscar's part. Now there is a knock at the door. They think it's their friends, but it turns out to be far off from that. Now let's go see who it is.
Oscar's POV
I've been swimming for two hours and I'm not even close to getting to Lenny! I still have 245 miles left to go! I wonder how long it will take? How long did take him to get there? I lot faster than me that's for sure. He's bigger too, so that would make sense.
Oh! I have an idea! I'll call a taxi fish! I pulled out the newest shell phone and typed in the numbers.
" Hello?" said the taxi fish at one end of the phone.
" Hello. Um… Can I have a ride to 365 Ship Field, Coral City?" Oscar asked impatiently on the other end of the phone.
" Are you crazy? That's over 200 miles away from here!" the taxi fish could tell the fish on the other side of the phone was anxious to get where he was trying to go.
" If I pay you extra, will take me then?" Oscar knew nobody could resist more money, and he had plenty of it.
" It's a deal. Where are you at?" the taxi fish replied quickly.
" 367 Boat Meadow, Reef City," Oscar replied quicker.
The taxi fish hung up. Oscar assumed he would be there pretty fast because he was going to double his pay, even triple it if he had to. He just had to get to Lenny as quickly as fishly possible. It wasn't back in 1 week, 6 days, and 22 hours. Angie and Rueben would be fish meat.
" Hey! Are you 367 Boat Meadow?" the taxi fish asked.
" Yes. Thank goodness! Here are 100 clams to start you off! I'll give you more at the end!" Oscar pulled out his clam wallet and gave the taxi fish a hundred dollar bill.
" Holy clams! Thanks, Mister Sharkslayer! Grab on!" the taxi fish shouted over the loud traffic. Oscar grabbed onto his fin and yelled, " Swim as fast as you can go! I need to be somewhere by tomorrow afternoon at the latest!"
The taxi fish started to flip his tail as fast as he could go with me on his back. I just hoped to god that I would to Lenny in time.

I woke up and asked, " How long have I been asleep?"
" Oh. You've been asleep for about 12 hours. So we still have about 8 hours left." the taxi fish answered politely.
" Eight hours left.", Oscar groaned, " What I'm I supposed to do in the meantime?"
" Well, you could look around at the beautiful scenery. Also, you are most definitely paying me extra because we're going into shark territory. They're all carnivorous. Why are trying to get here so quickly anyway?" the taxi fish questioned with curiosity.
Oscar was questioning whether he should tell him part of the truth or the whole truth. He decided to tell part of the truth because he wanted the real truth to be told in front of Angie, Lenny, and Reuben. " Well, it's kind of hard to explain, but there's this friend of mine or was a friend of mine, and he's best friend with someone I'm trying to save. Now I'm trying to find him so he can help before it's too late. "
" Wow. That's a lot to take in. So how long do you have to get him and get back to your " friends"?" the taxi fish questioned.
" Well according to the fact that I have already used up a day. 13 days left. It seems like a lot, but I fee that I had to start immediately. Especially if he's not there. Then I'll be all over the place looking for him. It's also going to take a lot of convincing to get him to come with me and not devour me alive." Oscar gulps.
" What do you mean " devour you alive"?" the taxi fish asked.
This taxi fish sure does have a lot of questions, Oscar thought. " Well, you see... He's not exactly a fish…" Oscar stuttered out nervously, squeezing his eyes shut thinking the taxi fish would start to freak out.
" I still don't understand...Is there a problem with him not being a fish? What is he? A starfish? A turtle? A whale? " the taxi fish splurged all these questions at Oscar.
After all this talking this taxi fish still don't understand what I mean. He must be dumb as a post. No, dumber than me. That's saying a lot. " He's none of those things. Now, I just have one thing before I tell you what species he is. Don't. Freak. Out." Oscar explained very slowly so the taxi fish could comprehend.
" Why would I freak out? I'm not scared of anything. Especially when you're here with me. That makes me feel even safer. Just tell me." the taxi fish coaxed.
" Alright, but I still have a feeling that you're gonna freak out anyway," Oscar sighed. " He's a great white."
The taxi halted to an immediate stop. " A… g-g-g-g-g-great w-w-white?" he asked a lot more than panicked.
This is what Oscar was worried about. " Don't worry he's a vegetarian." At least, Oscar hoped he'd be.
Angie's POV
I was still sitting in this tank with Reuben and these fricking piranhas. I'm also still covered in some sort of sauce. It was sticky and gross. Uck! Reuben was out cold on the other side of the tank. He was lucky I was stuck here not able to move and go kick his tiny butt for getting me stuck in this.
This is just like deja vu. Here I am all stuck together by a sauce instead of being gagged and trapped in a tank instead of being inside of a platter.
Flashback
I couldn't see a thing. It was cold and dark. I heard whispers on the other side of whatever I was in. I couldn't move my fins or my tail. I was just like my apartment and then something grabbed me. Now I'm somewhere dark. Also, I couldn't move my mouth. Something was covering it.
Suddenly, everything was bright. I looked around to see myself on a platter with kelp surrounding me. My fins and tail were tied together with kelp rope and my mouth was covered with kelp duct tape.
I turned around to see Don Lino smiling behind me. I started to panic. I didn't want to get eaten. I was too young. If I ever get out of this Oscar is going lose a fin.
I turned to see what Don Lino was smiling at. Then I realized Oscar, Lenny, and Mr. Sykes at the other end of the table. I groaned. I didn't want him here. He still clearly didn't tell the truth. All the sharks look terrified. Now I would rather get eaten than be saved by him.
"Hah! You're the one whos wrong. I barely even know that girl. What's your name Miss?" Oscar bluffed. I was shocked at this. I was done with hiding his stupid secret. I tried to tell them but they couldn't hear me through the kelp duct tape. Ugh. Why me?
I heard a very high voice say," Oh really? Well, I say he's bluffing." It was that stupid fish, Lola. Oscar's girlfriend. Why was she on this side though? Now I was confused.
"Lola. We met again." Oscar growled. He didn't seem to be too happy to see her. I wonder what happened between them. Not that I care.
" You know, Sharkslayer. There's only one thing I like better than money… Revenge." Lola hissed back. Okay, something happened between them. Oscar must've done something to piss her off or he broke up with her. Whatever.
Don Lino and Lola began to smile and he chuckled, " Your sharkslaying days are over and there ain't nothin' you can do about it."
Oscar burst into laughter and nodded at the other two to do the same. They looked at each other and began laughing. They looked insane.
Then Oscar said something that made my heart skip a beat. " You got nothing. NO-THANG! Sebastian, take her out."
After that all I saw was black. Then I noticed a tongue and teeth. It also smelled like kelp in here. OMG! Am I in Lenny's mouth? I hope he's okay. He's vegetarian so he probably isn't enjoying this. I tried moving away from his tongue but to no avail. There was no room in here. I was just praying to God that I wasn't making him sick.
Flashback Ended
Angie's eyes went blank. She didn't want to remember the next part. Then she started to think about Oscar. That stupid, reckless, idiot! He caused this. Why did I ever like him?! Sometimes, I just wish he wasn't alive, but he's trying to fix his mistake. I don't know if I can forgive him. But for Oscar's sake, I hope Lenny will. He'll probably swallow Oscar whole. The thought of Lenny eating Oscar made Angie shiver. I hope he comes back. I know that if he doesn't then he's probably dead. I don't I would be able to stand to look at Lenny because of that. Ugh. Gross.
Oscar's POV
Oscar was sitting there listening to the rambling fish continue to talk when suddenly he stopped. " We're here!" he shouted. Oscar pulled out his wallet and gave the taxi fish $100 clams. The taxi fish grabbed the money and skedaddled out of there.
Oscar swam up to what was a pretty nice ship. Was cleaner than Lino's rust bucket. He swam up to the door and sat there. He was terrified of Lenny's reaction to him. It would be a complete surprise to him. He flipped and rung the doorbell. No answer so he knocked on the door three times. He froze when he saw the handle turn and the door flung open…
