Author's Note: Hello, everyone! A Finding Nemo one-shot that takes place after the fish have children (mostly one because I think it may be better). This is much more of a recap to my VERY OLD A Bug's Life one-shot "Annoying Pill Bugs". So, favs and follows are accepted; be sure to R&R! Thanks and I hope you like it. Happy October! ^_^
It was a beautiful morning in Sydney Harbor in all of Australia. The dim-witted seagulls were shouting out,
"MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE!"
The annoyed pelican named Nigel was trying to eat a hermit crab, but he turned to the seagulls and yelled,
"Oh, would you just SHUT up?! You're rats with wings!"
With a frown, Nigel just sighed as the seagulls kept shouting that something he had is for them.
"MINE!" one of the seagulls shouted.
Nigel threw the hermit crab as the seagulls caught up to it.
"Here! You happy?!" Nigel snapped, and flew away.
The seagulls turned back to see Nigel, but shrugged as they noticed he was gone.
As Nigel landed somewhere, a voice called,
"Hey, Nigel!"
Nigel turned and noticed; it was Nemo, Marlin, Dory and the Tank Gang!
"Oh, hello! What brings you here?"
"We're here for a visit," Marlin replied.
"Right," Nigel nodded, but noticed someone near the Tank Gang,
"Ooh, who is this cute little damsel I've never seen?"
Trixie gasped, and hid behind her parents, as if she was scared that a pelican would eat a fish.
"Hey, is she okay?" Nigel questioned with concerned.
"It'll take her time to warm up. By the way, she's my cousin, and her name is Trixie," Nemo responded.
"Oh, I see," Nigel agreed, and grinned at Trixie.
"Such a pleasure to meet you, Trixie. Anyway, my name's Nigel. I want to be your friend."
Trixie shyly giggled, and swam close to Nigel. As Nigel leaned his beak at Trixie, she hugged it.
"Aww!" the others said in unison.
"I think he likes you, Trixie. But be very careful while admiring Nigel," Gill added as he reassured his niece, and turned to Nigel.
"Well, Nigel, she's mine, Gurgle, Bloat and Jacques's niece, and only 6 years old."
Nigel understood, and replied,
"So, who is Trixie?"
"She's mine and Deb's daughter," Bubbles replied.
Deb chuckled and nodded, saying,
"Trixie may have her first time meeting a pelican buddy, like you."
Nigel nodded with a chuckle. All of a sudden, a nearby seagull spotted Trixie and said,
"Mine?"
The others turned. More seagulls had approached.
"Don't make any noise or take a step," Nigel whispered cautiously.
"Trixie, don't look at that," Gurgle told his niece in a worrisome tone.
"Mom? Dad?" Trixie asked fearfully.
"MINE! MINE! MINE!" the seagulls yelled and charged at Trixie, who screeched and was scooped up by one of them!
"NO!" Nemo yelped.
Nigel aggressively grabbed the seagull, and shouted,
"No! NO, DROP HER! Spit her out RIGHT NOW!"
Still dim-witted, the seagull spitted Trixie out back into the ocean. Nigel yelled in anger at the seagulls, who flew away.
"Sorry this happened, you guys," Nigel told the fish.
Bubbles and Deb felt concerned as they saw a bite-mark on Trixie.
"Sheesh! They have been doing the same thing to me and Dory all around!" Marlin groaned in annoyance.
"Yeah, that's when I help you find Nemo," Dory replied with a less glare.
Nemo sighed with concern, so did others.
"So, are we gonna stay for the night?" Gill questioned with curoosity.
"Sure! But stay close by where I tuck in, okay?" Nigel added.
The fish nodded; as they and the pelican bid each other goodnight. The fish tucked themselves in a nearby den and falling asleep, while Nigel was starting to fall asleep as well on the rock.
The dim-witted seagulls spot Nigel sound asleep on the rock. As they flew over, they noticed another hermit crab under Nigel's wing.
The seagulls were chatting to each other, but only what they were saying when they want something from Nigel. The seagulls finally got their plan in session.
Once they snuck onto Nigel's side of where he was sleeping, they gently slid the hermit crab out of Nigel's wing.
The seagulls flew onto the other side to take it, but Nigel slid the hermit crab back onto his side while asleep, grumbling tiredly.
The seagulls felt dim-witted that their food is taken away, so they went close to the sleeping pelican's hearing. Then, they shout out in unison,
"MINE! MINE! MINE!"
"AYYYYEEEE!" Nigel squawked in fear as he burst awake.
As Nigel turned, the seagulls were dim-witted at the same time. He snarled and shouted,
"Oh, I'm gonna kill you rats!"
"MINE!" the seagulls yell in unison and fear as they flew away; Nigel was catching up.
All of a sudden, the commotion ended up waking Nemo, Marlin, Dory and the Tank Gang family to wake up. The fish swam up to see what happened, and suddenly popped their eyes in extreme shock.
The next morning…
The sun was rising over the ocean in Sydney Harbor, giving it off a beautiful glimmer effect.
The fish were asleep after seeing Nigel getting rid of the seagulls from what happened last night. As they swam up to meet Nigel, who was already awake, The fish decided to ask Trixie if she can ride in Nigel's beak, since it was her second time meeting him.
As Nigel nodded, Trixie shyly swam inside his beak, gripping her fins on the edge. Then, he took off as the fish followed him behind.
Once Nigel led the fish back home to Great Barrier Reef, he released Trixie from his beak, while Bubbles and Deb had Trixie back.
"Thank you, Nigel!" the fish told in unison.
"You are very welcome! That was the least I can do," Nigel replied.
As Trixie shyly giggled, her parents reassured her, so did the others. Gill told his niece,
"Now, dear, what do you tell your friend Nigel?"
"Thank you!" Trixie chimed in excitedly.
Nigel felt awed as he said,
"Aw, you're more than welcome, Trixie. I'm looking forward to seeing you again."
Then, the pelican nudged Trixie one last time, while she hugged his beak, making the others felt awed at the same time because of this touchy moment.
The fish bid goodbye to Nigel, who did the same, and waved as Nigel flew away. As the fish swam back into the ocean, Nemo asked his little cousin Trixie kindly,
"So, you like Nigel, don't you, Trixie? He really is a nice pelican."
"Yes! This was my new time meeting him! How did you guys meet Nigel?" Trixie replied curiously.
"Sharkbait and all of us saw him at the dentist's office while we helped your older cousin get back to his dad," Gill replied as he gestured to Marlin, who blushed.
Dory chuckled at that moment, so did the others.
"He even jammed the tank's filter!" Bloat added with a smile.
"And he's covered with GERMS!" Gurgle yelped, and swam away while screaming.
"Gurgle, get back here! It's just a story!" Gill shouted at him sternly, but turned to others with a whisper,
"Excuse me."
Then, Gill caught up with Gurgle.
"Anyway, Trixie, dear, your cousin made the tank filthy," Deb added to Trixie.
"But then, the tank is CLEAN!" Peach marveled in agreement.
"Ooh!" Trixie said in awe,
"What now?"
"Me and Dory were looking out for your cousin, but I thought he was dead when in the bag," Marlin replied.
Trixie whimpered in shock,
"No, not Nemo!"
"Don't worry, he pretends," Dory said as she reassured Trixie,
"And when Marlin left me, I was scared, until Nemo found me."
"How?" Trixie questioned.
"Ooh, your uncle Gill saved your cousin from that fish-killing girl Darla," Jacques responded.
"Who's Darla?" Trixie said as she shook, but Nemo reassured her.
"The dentist told me that Darla is his niece; and after all of this, Dory helped me find my dad."
"Aww, that's sweet!" Trixie added in awe.
Moments later, Gill approached with Gurgle, who stopped his fears. As they got evidence from the others, Gill and Gurgle surely understood.
As the day was nighttime, Nemo, Marlin and Dory bid the Tank Gang goodnight.
Back in their own neighborhood, Marlin and Nemo bid Dory goodnight, and Dory did the same, then fell asleep in her own home; Marlin tucked Nemo to sleep with him in the sea anemone, and fell right to sleep.
Meanwhile in the other neighborhood, the Tank Gang were getting themselves situated for bed. Gurgle, Bloat and Jacques were asleep next to each other with Bubbles and Deb cuddling Trixie, who was now 6 years old at that time, on their beds around their leader's bedside. Gill and Peach were sound asleep, giving each other nudges, cuddles and lovely embraces.
