You swim up and up and up until you can see again and the water is warmer. You hear a lot of noise behind you and see one of Nemo's henchmen coming fast on your trail! What kind of a fish is this henchman? He's large...his nostrils are moving...he smells something...he smells blood....on you!!! You look at each other and realize you still have sperm whale blood on you!
Swimming for your life, you quickly jot down a message knowing these will probably be your last words. You look desperately around to find someone who is faster than you who can deliver this to headquarters. You spy another small fish nearby and remember learning about him....hey! He can help! You hand off the message to him, burble an address, and watch as he shoots straight up and out of the water. You don't see him after that and that is exactly what you hoped for.
You turn and realize the large animal that had been chasing you is swimming down to the ocean depths...he must smell more sperm whale blood down that way. You take out your journal and jot down the kind of animal that was following you and the one that took the message to headquarters. Do this now. Use your Animal Encyclopedia if you need to.
"Wow...I just saw my life swim before my eyes!" replies Lionfish.
Slowly you swim towards the coral reef. There you gently glide about, enjoying the beauty of it all, watching for your next step of this mission.
You see a clown fish peeking out of an anemone. "Psst...come over here!" he whispers to you, furtively looking around him. Cautiously, you both swim over to him.
"You two wanta have some fun?" he asks. You roll your eyes and begin to swim away. He says, "Oh well. There are always more fish in the sea."
You look at each other and then you say, "Wow...that's deep!"
The Clown fish disappears in the anemone. He returns a few seconds later with a puzzle. "Solve this puzzle and I'll give you the lowdown on that Nemo Nut."
You look at the puzzle and smile. It's a cinch!
(Look for this puzzle where you keep your ocean invertebrate collection).
