Chapter 1: The Second Time Pool
The Octonauts were sitting around HQ, doing absolutely nothing. Nothing had happen for the past week, not a single mission, and they were bored out of their minds.
"It's too bad we couldn't find a way to visit Thra." Dashi sighed. "I miss Jen and the others."
Months ago, our undersea heroes became heroes of another planet called Thra. They were taken there by a strange whirlpool known as a time pool. While there, they met two gelflings named Jen and Kira, Kira's pet, Fizzgig, a creature named Augra, and a good hearted skeksis named Skeksil. Together, they were all able to heal the Dark Crystal, save Thra from the rule of Skeksis, and fulfill the prophecy.
That was three months ago, and they were still waiting for another mission in another world.
"I'm sure they miss us too, Dashi." Captain Barnacles sighed. "But, there's nothing we can do. There's no way back into their world except by time pool. And I don't see another time pool coming for us anytime soon."
The Octonauts sighed in despair, missing their alien friends.
Suddenly, a loud alarm went off through the Octopod, accompanied by a flashing red light.
"Captain, we've got action in the sea!" Kwazzi cried. "Red alert! Red alert!"
"What is it, Kwazzi?" Barnacles ran up to the controls.
"Looks to be another time pool sir." Kwazzi explained. "It's coming right for us!"
"And it's a big one too." Shellington breathed. "It's unnatural! A time pool should not be this big, or this violent!"
The Octonauts stared, mouths agaped, as the giant, violently thrashing, tornado-like whirlpool approached the Octopod.
"The windows are breaking!" Tweak shrieked.
It was true. The windows were beginning to crack as sea water entered the Octopod.
"Everybody, brace yourselves!" Barnacles ordered as everybody hugged onto each other.
Suddenly, the dome completely shattered, and the Octonauts were sent away, watery screams coming from their throats as they were pulled into the whirlpool.
