Finnick darts past swaying anemones. “Let’s play hide-and-seek!”
Reef friends scatter into seaweed forests, bubbly caves, and coral nooks. Bubbles pop everywhere.
Finnick searches beneath waving seaweed. “Found you!”
Only a sleepy crab-shaped shadow wiggles away. Finnick giggles at the trick.
A tiny trail of bubbles drifts toward a cave. Finnick follows.
Through the cave and around a coral arch, Finnick calls, “Ready or not!” A muffled giggle answers.
Behind a tall anemone, Finnick calls again. A splash answers, then a pop.
Suddenly, the bubbles burst into a giant cloud. Finnick disappears inside.
Bump! Finnick bumps into one friend, then another. Everyone tumbles together.
They tumble out together with a loud, bubbly BOOP! The reef fills with laughter.
No more hiding! Finnick leads a wiggly line through the reef. “Follow the bubbles!”
They find one another again and again as bubbles sparkle above. Boop!
