I Clam What I Clam

Dauntless had disbanded, and he didn't know what to do. Unwilling to stay in the North for the time being, Cloud traveled southward as far as his legs would carry him. His mother and his brothers mate along with everyone else had gone their separate ways, and now he was left feeling like he didn't have much of a purpose anymore. It seemed that just as life was looking up, something would happen to bring it crashing down. He felt really hurt that his brother had left without a word. He thought they had been close, but maybe not close enough.

Bi-colored gaze looked up and he found himself on a strip of sand. A bridge of some sort? He had never been this far before, and didn't know what lied on the other side. Looking around, he noticed the ocean was on either side of him, the smell of the sea was salty, something he had never seen or smelled before. Hunger gnawed at his insides, when was the last time he ate? He couldn't quite remember. This place though, smelled like it was abundant with food, but not the kind he had hunted before.

Hunger and curiosity drove him forward to see what he could find. He nosed around the sand, looking for the tantalizing smell he had caught wind of, but couldn't quite figure out where it was. Was it something underground? Looking around, he saw a spout of water shoot up from the sand, head tilting with confusion and wonder. Moving to the spot where he saw the water shoot out, he set about to digging. But almost as soon as he started, another spout of water shot up and got him square in the face! Falling back with a yelp of surprise, he stared wide eyed at the spot. There was definitely something there!
