Jupiter woke up and saw his family,
he whistled excitedly as he swam towards them at an increasing
speed.
As he approached his family, they all seemed to disappear except his mother.
He slowed down as he reached his mother.
She saw him and screeched as she nuzzled him with relief that she had finally found her baby.
He was wondering why the rest of his family were not with his mother.
But they continued on their way around Iceland finally being able to bond again after years.
Reporters and citizens say they saw a deceased and extremely unwell orca washed up on a rocky beach, claiming that they believe it is the orca that had escaped a marine park some months ago.
10 year old male orca Jupiter, the sweetest amongst all the orcas, was found dead.
It seems that he was heading up north to Iceland most likely in an attempt to refind his family.
Jupiter is now swimming freely among the ocean of clouds,
he will be remembered for his efforts and determination for making it as far as he did.
Jupiter soon then realized his mother had died as well,
only a year after he got captured.
She died from a broken heart because she lost all her calves and her partner after he got taken away from her.
She was hurting and suffering miserably amongst the pod.
She had a family,
but not her own anymore.
He was reunited with his mother.
That's all he ever wanted.
He found freedom through death.
