Sheila gave the little girl a few moments to rest and recuperate from her near death experience. Before long the girl woke up on her own. At first she was confused. She didn't recognize the object she was laying on from the ship, but whatever it was it was very warm and slightly soft. The movement of its breath began lolling her back to sleep. Wait BREATH!? The girl suddenly panicked again as it dawned on her that it was the monster from before. Before long she realized that if she moved to much she would slide right off of it and back into the water were she would certainly drown and so despite her terrified state she clung to the monsters dorsal fin.
 
 Sheila of course noticed all of this. "Oh your awake." she said.
 
 Now that the young girl was no long in a panicked swim, she heard the whales words. "You.... you can talk?" asked the girl.
 
 "Yes I can." said Sheila.
 
 This just baffled the girl. How could this beast talk? Why had it saved her? Was it going to eat her? for that matter why hadn't it eaten her yet if that was its goal? "What are you going to do with me?" she asked.
 
 Sheila was taken aback. She had no idea what she had planed on doing. After thinking about it for a min Sheila responded with the only answer she could think of. "I'm going to take you to a safe place." and with that Sheila began to swim on the surface with the girl clinging to her back, headed home.
 
 
 Not long after Sheila began her trek she caught the taste of something slightly familiar in the water, curious as to what it was she took another mouth full of water to check again, this time she recognized the taste. It was shark! Sheila used her echo location to find out where they were and to her dismay she found that a pod of 5 sharks just happened to be between them and the atoll. Sheila had few choices, she could either run for it and hope to out run them or fight. neither of which could be done with the girl clinging to her back.
 
 "Little girl, little girl!" Sheila called out.
 
 "Yes?" The girl responded still very nervous.
 
 "There are sharks coming this way. I need you to trust me." and before the girl could respond she found herself dunked in the water. the whale had left her! she began thrashing in the water once again for a few moments until she found herself engulfed in darkness. The girl had no idea were she was and she couldn't see a thing all she knew was that it was warm and wet, then suddenly something moved beneath her! she panicked and tried to scramble off of the whatever was moving only to back into something hard. when it stopped moving the girl pulled out her camp out flash light from a backpack that she had managed to keep with her from the ship. Being a former cub scout she had brought some survival gear with her. Always be prepared, right? When she turned the light on she instantly realized that she was inside the whales mouth. it had eaten her. With that horrific though the girl began to cry again in hopelessness.
 
 
 Sheila was amazed at how the girl tasted! She had to stop herself from trying to get a full taste, however it was still tempting to simply swallow the girl right then, after all she had began this trek in search of a good meal. Never the less Sheila was bound and determined to see the girl to safety so she resisted her sudden urges. With the girl safely tucked away Sheila could now swim at her top speed under the surface and try to get by the sharks in her path. As she approached the pod of sharks she tried her best to go around them and keep her distance, unfortunately the pod of sharks took an interest in the lone whale and began there pursuit in eager anticipation of the easy meal. Sheila sped toward home as fast as she could, however she knew she would be unable to outrun the smaller, faster sharks. she had only one choice now, to fight, however she would be unable to do so with the girl in her mouth. She prayed that the girl would forgive her for what she was about to do.
 
 The girl was still sobbing when suddenly the whales tongue push her to the back of the throat. She shrieked and fell forward on the large muscle but was unable to grip the slick flesh. the tongue pushed her back again, this time causing her feet to slide into the throat and with one large swallow the muscular contraction dragged her down into the pit. Once she was deposited into the waiting belly she noticed it was considerably larger than the whales mouth and she was greeted by a sudden and loud grumbling noise from all around her. The girl exhausted from the days events simply curled into the fettle position, making herself as small as possible and resumed crying. Sheila now had to resist her body�s urge to digest the girl now in her stomach.
 
 Before turning to engage the pursuing sharks Sheila surface and swallowed several breaths of air for the girl in her belly and then she charged at the mob of sharks. Her best chance was to wound one of them and hope the other sharks would feed on there fallen comrade. The sudden change of tactics took the sharks by surprise as she opened her mouth as wide as she could and bit down on shark that seemed to be leading the pack, severing the head from its body. The water quickly turn dark red with blood as her strategy worked. 3 of the sharks now turned in a frenzy to feed on the now dead shark. However the last of the sharks had managed to get behind Sheila in her initial assault and bit down on her tail. With a knee jerk reaction Sheila ripped her tail out of the sharks grip, turned around, and spat the previous sharks head at her new attacker. the shark quickly turned in the direction of the disembodied head with the smell of blood on it. As her opponent turned away she charged forward again and torn a large portion out of the sharks side, disabling its tail and spewing even more blood into the ocean. With all the sharks either dead or distracted Sheila took her chance and made course for her home again, swimming as fast as she could she worked her jaw in the water trying to remove the gore and taste of blood.
