Part two: The Middle
Okie dokie I stayed up until 4 am to write it.Here is part 2.
Part two: The Middle
We get to the outside world it is dark, much darker then the store I once called home. It is also very big it almost looks never ending. I wish I could swim around the whole world and see it all. We get to a silver machine and my mom gets in, What is this thing some kind of bowl for people? Are we going to live in this? If so where is that other fish mom was talking about? Then the human bowl starts moving, I have never felt such an odd thing but I know I am safe cause mom is holding me. After awhile the moving stops and we get out of the human bowl, thank god we are not living in that thing. We walk inside a thing that kind of looks like the store that was my home only the inside was so much different. Where are all the shelves? Why is it not so bright and scary here? I still don't know but I like it. My mom sets me on what the people call a counter and says "lets see what do I have for you?" I wonder what it could be, maybe it's clean water I would love to have some clean water or maybe it's food I am kind of hungry now that I think about it. "This will have to work for a little while bud, sorry it's so small and I only have this one old plant." She shows me them and starts putting my new home together for me. I can't wait to be out of this bag the water still burns. She puts stuff on the bottom that looks soft I belive she called them marbles or stones they are colorful, then she puts what she calls a plant in the middle. Then the best part she pulls out a jug of clean water which is all I ever wanted and she poors it in. She then picks me upand unties my bag, she catches meand finally.....clean water! I love my new mom I feel so much better now, maybe I am not sick and dying afterall. Then my mom looks at me and says "I still don't have a name for you, but do you want to meet Carlisle?" Was Carlisle the other fish? Or was he another person? I suppose I would not mind meeting him. She then picks me up and carries me over to a vase with something in it. What could that be? "new fish meet Carlisle!" she said. So this must be Carlisle, is he.......another betta fish? He is but he looks different from me he is a different color then me too and he has different looking fins and tail, he does not look like the others from the top shelve at the store. Heflares a little but he looks about as stressed as I am, so he must be new here too. Mom picks me up and moves me a little, she points a scary thing at me at me for a little while then she moves me back to my original spot. She turns to us both and says "goodnight boys I will see you in the morning" then she turns to me and says "we will have to come up with a name for you soon". Finally I can rest next to this plant for awhile and enjoy my clean water. The next couple of days were pretty much the same. I still had not received a name and mom seemed pretty stumped as to what she would call me. I don't really mind not having a name right away like Carlisle got. It makes me feel like mom is really thinking about me. The other person is still around but only mom feeds me and cleans my water. Mom come up too me and says "you are going to live in the kitchin buddy, since everything in here is red you will match and I only have room for one in my room." Ok I like it out here I get to watch my people go by all day. The days are going by and oneday one catches me to do a water change like usual, she looks at me in the cup and says "ready for your new home?" I don't want to leave this place I like it here I will live in the small thing with the old plant forever if I can stay here with you mom. "Alright here you go" Oh...... a new tank, how exciting! "well bud it's not the best but but a one gallon bowl is betterthen that small thing" she says. Oh a new plant and new marble things too this is awsome! Over the day I have been here I learned that mom calls that taller other person mom as well, so I have decided to call her mom two. She is not my mom but I don't have another name for her so mom two works. Mom still has not figured out a name for me she says she wants to find one that suits me the best. Mom two calls me her cooking buddy and really seems to like me I like her. I have been here for awhile now and I really like it here. It's night time now and mom two is getting something in the kitchin, all the sudden mom comes running in and says "I finally figured out a name for the fish!" Oh yay I get a name I am really part of the family now! "Pirate" she says loud and proud. Well I like it, I am glad mom put so much thought into it. She turns too me and says "finally you have a name buddy or should I say Pirate!" I am so happy that I have a name now and am part of the family I flare a little to show off how proud I am. "You are a beauty" mom says and she walks away. I am Pirate watch me flare!
