When I got there, I realized that Jewel followed me again. I started to feel the ground of the cove. I was feeling for the oysters. "Hah, gotcha!" I said as I grabbed the oyster I felt. "Woah, thats a big one!" Jewel said as she held a smaller one. I pried the oyster open and grabbed the pearl. I stuck the meat in my mouth as I put the pearl back into the oyster. "Do you need any help opening your oyster?" I asked my sister as I saw that she was struggling. "I got it, I don't need you to baby me anymore." She said as she grabbed a rock and smashed the oyster open. "Well that's one way to open an oyster." I said sarcastically. My sister was 20 years old and I was 19.

When it got darker I peeked my head out of the water to see the sunset. "It's so pretty." I said to myself. I quickly turned around and looked at the docks because I heard footsteps. I lowered my head into the water. (Connors point of view) "Hey Hazel, come here." I said as I saw her looking at a shell. She jogged along the dock towards me and sat down. "What do you need?" She said. "Look at the sunset. Isn't it beautiful?" I said as I pulled her closer to me. "Yeah it really is." She said as we watched the sunset. (Nines point of view) "I wish I had someone to enjoy this sunset with.." I said as I started to swim towards the cove. I decided to stay the night there because it's too risky to swim in the night. When it got darker, I fully popped my head out of the water to gaze at the moon for a little. My ears started to go down as I sensed something coming towards me. "Predators." I said as I looked around me. I couldn't see them at first until they peeked their heads out of the water. "What do you greedy predators want from me." I snarled as I watched them circle me. "Well, we are very hungry right now, and you look like a tasty snack." One predator said as she had the predators make a smaller circle around me.
