He was so bored. Being stuck on the beach was awful! They almost didn't allow them to leave the dang ship, but thankfully agreed that the beach would be safe enough in the meantime. If he was being honest, the day was pretty nice too. Not a cloud to be seen, just barely a whisper of a chilly breeze ruffling his quills, and the obsidian sand beneath his paws sparkling like diamonds. Even the frothy waves that washed upon the shore looked rather inviting, but he told himself not today. No, today was a day for him to haul his brother along the beach shore to look for cool shells! "That one is huge," he said as he pointed a paw at a broken conch sticking from the sand. As the lanky boy approached it, a loud honking call caught his attention. Instantly his fur stood on edge as his quills bristled instinctively. Not far ahead of them, a rather slimy and furless creature flopped around on the shore with bristling whiskers and beady eyes. It honked and garbled strange noises that made Scald wonder why the heck it was even on their beach! "C'mon we gotta chase it off!" The boy said to Rexx as he took off toward the large flippered animal. Letting out a few loud alarming barks in the animal's direction, he wasn't expecting the thing to start barking back at him. Startled, Scald skidded to a halt and bared his teeth. No creature was gonna scare him off! Without thinking or assessing the situation, the pup lunged forward and snapped at the sea lion's flipper.
