Ch. 3: The Bubbles in Fish-o-Rama

In the country of Japan, there was a fish mart called "Fish-o-rama".

There were all kinds of fish swimming about, but there was one fish in particular that we are going to focus on.

This fish was a Yellow Fish Tang and he was waving around his tank, making bubbles and trying to catch them.

"Bubbles! Bubbles! Bubbles!"

In the back room, the owner of Fish-o-Rama received a message to purchase one of the fish.

"A Yellow Fish Tang?" he said in Japanese but English subtitles were given, "Good thing those are very common around here."

He goes to the Yellow Tang's tank just as the said fish was playing around with the bubbles and used a fish net to bring him out.

"Bubbles! Bubbles!" The Yellow Tang cried.

The Japanese owner put the fish in a tank that was in a shipping crate before closing a lid on it.

The Yellow Tang can now only barely see and the holes put on the crate's lid was doing him some justice.

The Yellow Tang waved his arms around again, making bubbles appear, much to his delight.

"Bubbles! Bubbles!"

After what seemed like days in that crate with nothing but some food and his bubbles to keep him company, the Yellow Tang could feel his surroundings being in motion along with him.

Suddenly, after a few minutes, the lid opened and a net came down and grabbed the Yellow Tang and put him in a tank full of aquatic aspects.

"Hope you like your new home mate." said a voice nearby, prompting the tang to turn back in surprise and see a human with gray hair and is wearing a blue shirt.

After the human, the Yellow Tang looked outside of the tank and could see a window near the desk where the tank is sat at and he swam all the way to the back of the tank and saw what looked like a dentist's waiting room.

"Hello there!" came another voice and the Tang looked back in surprise and saw a Moorish Idol fish and a Puffer Fish swim to him.

"You must be the new fish," said the Idol.

"Yeah, Dr. Sherman's been waiting for you ever since he bought you 2 days ago." said the Pufferfish.

The Yellow Tang remained silent.

"Must be the silent type," said the Idol to the Pufferfish before turning back to the Tang, "Anyways, introductions; I'm Gil and he's Bloat."

"What's your name?" asked Bloat.

The Tang opened his mouth to speak, but he heard a sound and looked and saw some Bubbles come out of a toy treasure chest.

"Bubbles!" cried out the Tang as he swam toward the chest and began playing with the bubbles while saying "Bubbles" repeatedly.

Gil and Bloat just looked at him in confusion as the Tang resumed playing with the Bubbles.

Gil then spoke up, "I think we'll just call you 'Bubbles'."

Bloat nodded his head in agreement.
