This'll probably be the second-to-last chapter. Anyyway, enjoy!
The seals were disappointed to find no penguins, so went back to the ice, only to find it empty.
"There it is! And there's another!" one seal pointed out. The group turned, and saw the two little penguins swimming away. "GET THEM!" All the seal swam quickly towards them. Rusty looked behind him, and gasped.
"Go, GO!" he urged. Jenna looked exhausted, so, as they neared the shore, he gave her a huge shove, which propelled her quickly through the water, and onto the beach. She stood, panting, and called to Rusty.
"Hurry, Rusty!" she cried. Rusty was a fast swimmer, but not as fast as a full-grown seal. It reached out its jaws, and chomped, catching Rusty's feet in its mouth.
"AAHH!" Rusty cried, trying to swim away, but was thrown violently from side-to-side. By now, Ruby had gotten Sal, Veronica, and Ramses.
"Not again!" Veronica gasped. Sal and Ramses dove into the water, and Hunter also went to help. She quickly explained everything as they neared, and Sal and Ramses were grateful for her help.
"Try and attract the seal with something else," Ramses instructed. Hunter nodded, and did so, but failed. Sal tried distracting the seal, and when it let go of Rusty, and swam over to him, Ramses grabbed the chick under his wings, and swam with one flipper back to shore. As the seal neared Sal, Hunter got in front of him.
"No way, this is my kill!" she snarled at him.
"I saw it first!" the seal protested. The two argued enough for Sal to get away. When he turned back, Hunter winked.
Back on the beach, Veronica was checking Rusty's feet.
"Your feet are fine," she said, relief in her voice. "Did you get hurt, Jenna?" The penguin shook her head. Sal walked up to the group, getting his breath back.
"Is everyone alright?" he asked. The group nodded.
"Still," said Ruby, sounding angry, "I did tell you to stay on the beach."
"What, and let your sister be seal food?" Rusty snapped. "I saved her, didn't I?" Ruby sighed, and walked away. Rusty stared after her.
"What? No thank you?" he asked in a joking way. Veronica rolled her eyes.
"Just like his father…" she sighed.
Please reveiw! :D
