They soon came to shallow waters.
"Here we are," Dennis-bot Said, "This is as far as I can take you."
"Aw man," Patrick said, "Why?"
"I can feel the blessing start to wear off," The bot said.
"Uh Oh," Patrick said, "We have to go."
The two friends quickly got off the bike.
" Thanks for all your help," Spongebob said.
The bot smiled and drove away.
"Well," SpongeBob looking up a bit, "here we are. Shell City is just up there."
SpongeBob gulped, he was a tiny bit nervous.
Patrick asked, "How do you know?"
SpongeBob said pointing next to where their standing, "There's a sign for it right there."
Sure enough, there was a sign pointing up to the surface it read; "Shell City."
"Oh," Patrick said with a chuckle, "right."
SpongeBob could taste the water grow sweet in comfort one last time.
"Well, come on," Patrick encouraged his friend, "We got a quest to finish."
Patrick began to asend, and turned to SpongeBob. He could see SpongeBob was quaking in fear and looking on the verge of tears.
"Aw," Patrick said, coming back to the timid sponge, "Your scared aren't you?"
SpongeBob whimpered, "Yes."
"It's okay Buddy," Patrick said, taking SpongeBob's hand, "I'm going with you."
"Thanks Pat," SpongeBob said with a shy smile. They took a deep breath and held their breath, taking a few steps towards the surface, then they finally got on the beach.
