Aqua let myself slip underwater, as one of the dolphins slipped next to her, and she felt him slip under her hand, as she snagged his dorsal fin, and he tugged her through the water, the clickling sounds of the other dolphins' echolocation being a soothing sound for her. She felt the dolphin slow, and she moved under his stomach, running a hand along his underbelly.
 
At a sharp clicking sound, the dolhpin Aqua was petting moved to one side, as underneath her, I began raising up, nestling under her and beginning to gently push her towards the surface. I knew from experience that it was hard to keep track of time as a dolphin, and so I took it as a personal responsibility to make sure that the others didn't keep her under water for too long...
 
Aqua rolled off Chal's dolphin form, not needing to get anywhere close to the surface yet, and still wanting to play with the gray torpedo-shapped mammals. She looked around for another dolphin, having been unable to touch any marine animals since Crimson had taken care of her. She realised how much she enjoyed the contact, and knew that she never wanted to leave...
 
Only now realising that I was, yet again, alone, I sighed to myself, and made my way out of the institute. Outside, it was muggy. I muttered to myself, slowly raising my arms. Stormclouds began to gather in the sky. I looked upward, with a serious expression on my face. I felt as if I was being spied upon; by who, I wasn't sure. Lightning began to roar, as I heard a mysterious voice echo through my head, calling out my name. I figured it was the same person, but who? The downpour began, and I quickly lowered my arms, as to not stand out. I felt comforted by the rain. Fearlessly, I sat myself down in the gutter, slowly becoming drenched.
 
Crimson walked over to the girl, and sat down next to her, not minding the rain. "Hey." she said, deciding that for now, she could leave the fossils alone. She seemed to be a lonor as well, so she didn't think that there would be that much of a problem. She just wasn't used to people.
 
As she rolled off I relaxed slightly, but still waited, watching her nervously as the other dolphins came close to her. If she showed signs of running out of breath, even these untrained dolphins would be able to see it, and get her to the suface. I still couldn't help but feel worried for her though...
 
I turned my head warily, looking towards Crimson. "Hi... You don't mind the rain?" I replied. I wasn't very good with conversations, as most of the time I tended to be alone. I took my eyes off the girl, and looked up as the rain continued. In my own mind, I was starting to wonder. I could feel somebody watching us. Who... are you...?, I thought to myself.
 
"there's no reason for me to mind." Crimson said. "besides, I've delt with having an adult tyrannosaurus attacking me, rain doesn't hurt anybody." She noticed that the girl seemed to be nervous, so she didn't say anything more.

Aqua surfaced for a moment, then dove back under, as another dolphin slipped under her, and let her stroke its body and tail, and the dolphin seemed to enjoy the treatment.
 
Finally tiring of the arcade, I decided I would go to the city zoo. Once there, I heard there was a dolphin show coming up. Deciding I wanted to be one of the first ones there, I headed over there as fast as possible. I walked into the tank area with no one else in sight, But I watched with confusion as it seemed someone was in the tank.
