Chapter One: The Presentation of Princess Tsunami
It was a dark and somewhat quiet morning over the island where the Summer Palace was hidden. A few bird calls and the sounds of marine life could be heard just outside. Inside the Palace, everyone started stirring as they knew that today was an important day.

Deep beneath the Summer Palace, was the Deep Palace, a place where the Seawings would dwell when there was a time of crisis on the surface. It was also where the Seawings would have their eggs hatch in safety. And in the royal hatchery, a single egg was plucked and taken out of the room.

Outside of the two palaces, the Seawings started to come out of their homes and make for the Summer Palace. Even those up in the Summer Palace started to emerge from their slumber to take part in these events.

Queen Coral and King Gill swam with the egg of their daughter in the crook of the latter's arm. And as they swam, a crack appeared on the shell of their daughter's egg. Both parents happened to notice this and shared a smile between them.

Far across the sea, lay a large island close to a continent. On the eastern beach, what appeared to look like a large rock started to move. A second later, a pair of claws and long skinny legs lifted a large crustacean off the sand and scurried down to the water. On the way down, the crab picked up a really long stick that had a few gourds tied to it. Once under the waves, the large crab continued to make his way to the east towards the palace of the Seawings.

From an island not too far from the large crab's home, a large flock of birds were circling overhead. One of the birds broke away from the flock and headed east towards the Summer Palace.
Female Singer:From the day we arrive
On the planet
And, blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see
Than can ever be seen
More to do
Than can ever be done
One other side of the island where the Summer Palace was, Shark was currently standing outside of a command center of sorts. He looked in the direction of the Summer Palace with a grim look before turning back and heading inside of his command center.
Female Singer: There's far too much
To take in here
More to find
Than can ever be found
Back at the Summer Palace, both Queen Coral and King Gill shot out from the water and flew towards a large structure that stood in the center of the Summer Palace. They landed at the top of the structure and Gill stayed behind with their daughter in his arms while Coral walked to the edge of the pavilion.
Female Singer: But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small
On the endless round
As he flew through the air towards the Summer Palace, the lone bird, a seagull flapped his small, white wings and was able to propel himself through the air and flew towards the island of the Seawing's home. He flew right towards the tree covered canopy of the Summer Palace and dove right for the green.
Female Singer: It's the Circle of Life
And it moves us all
The canopy seemed to sense the seagull coming and as if by some magic, opened up to allow the small bird to fly through. The seagull landed before Queen Coral before bowing to the queen of the Seawings. He looked to her and smiled at her. Queen Coral looked to the small avian with a stoic look before she nodded to him with a smile of her own and greeted, "Scuttle."
Female Singer: Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
She turned her head down to the waters below to see them churning. Any Seawings down there moved as the large crab emerged from the water. The crab made his way towards the pavilion. He used one of the supports that connected the level and made his way up to the queen. When he made it the crab stood before the queen and gave a bow of his own. Queen Coral looked to the large crab and greeted with a smiled, "Shell."
Female Singer: Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
"My Queen." Shell bowed his body with a look of joy in his eyes. Queen Coral wrapped both an arm and a wing around the giant crab and pulled him into an embrace. A little startled at first, Shell returned the embrace. The two then looked back over to Gill holding the young Seawing dragonet.

They both walked over to the king of the Seawings as he held the dragonet in the crook of his arm. She was facing towards her father, her face buried against his chest. He gently lowered his head and carefully nuzzled the little dragon and said, "Tsunami."
The little dragonet rolled on her back to where she was looking up at her parents and the large crab. Shell brought his staff over the young dragon's head and waved gourds over her. Tsunami tried to swat the gourds with her little talons. He broke one open with a swift motion of his claws before carefully using one of his claws to paint some of the juice on the princess's forehead. Shell then untwisted the tops of the gourds before pouring a little sand into his talon. The large crab then carefully sprinkled it over her head. The sand caused Tsunami to adorably sneeze and it made her parents look down at her with smiles as they pressed their heads together.
Shell then set his staff down on the floor before taking little Tsunami into his large claws. Carefully holding the little dragonet, Shell smiled to the king and queen before walking to the edge of the pavilion. Coral and Gill once again looked to each other with a smile before following after him. Shell walked until he was but a few feet from the edge. Down below, all the Seawings and even Scuttle watched from the side as they waited in anticipation to see the new princess.
Shell lifted Tsunami high with both claws and presented her to the kingdom.

All the dragons down below cheered for the princess. Some splashed in excitement while others started to flap out of the water. But they all roared at the sight of the new princess.
Female Singer: And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
Tsunami looked about the inside of Summer Palace and all those who were gathered. Though she didn't understand what was happening, everyone else knew that she would have a place within the Circle of Life.
The trees and clouds above opened up a little to allow a beam of sunlight to come over the young princess. And it caused everyone to cheer even louder.

Soon, all the Seawings were bowing in respect to their new princess. From behind Shell, Queen Coral, King Gill and Scuttle all watched with proud smiles for the young princess.
THE
Seawing Queen
As the ceremony ended, Shell came back to the king and queen to hand the young princess back to King Gill. Both Shell and Scuttle nodded to them with smiles which Coral and Gill returned. But as Shell left them by going down the way he came up, Coral's smile fell when she wasn't too happy. Looking to Scuttle she asked, "Please go and find my brother. He's probably where he usually is now a days."
"Of course, your Majesty." The seagull nodded before opening his wings and took flight. Gill happened to look to see the look on his wife's face and said, "I know that you're upset that Shark didn't show. But maybe he had a reason."
"I highly doubt it." Coral shook her head. Then she asked, "Will you watch over Tsunami until I return?"
"I will not allow her out of my sight." Gill promised with a nod and held their daughter close. Coral nodded with a smile before opening her wings and flew after Scuttle.

Author's Note: I told you that it would be different. We'll start the next chapter with Shark being all pouty. I'll even make sure to have it be greatly different than other stories. I look forward to reading your reviews. Be sure to leave a comment either about if I've done something wrong or if you want something specifically to happen. See you next time.
