Riley Anne is a small dragon. She has soft green scales. She has tiny wings. She lives by a coral reef. The reef is bright and warm.
The coral reef is full of colors. The water is blue and clear. Fish swim around coral towers. Sea plants sway in gentle waves.
One friend is Wolf. Wolf is a gray wolf pup. He likes to splash and play. He and Riley Anne are best friends. They laugh and dance by the reef.
Each morning they greet the reef. They wave to a shy turtle. The turtle hides in a shell. Riley Anne taps it softly. Wolf taps too. The turtle peeks out. The turtle smiles and says hello.
They dance with a school of fish. They clap their claws and fins. They sing a happy song. They hum a tune under the sea.
One day, Riley Anne finds a small glass jar on the sand. Inside is a folded note. The note says I lost my shiny seashell. Please help me. Riley Anne calls Wolf.
Riley Anne and Wolf tiptoe through the sea grass. They peek past a blue anemone. They hide behind a rock when a big fish swims by. They giggle and wait. They see many shells glitter. They try one. They try two. No shell is the one.
Then Riley Anne spots a map drawn on a piece of driftwood. The map shows a red X. They follow the map lines. They swim up and down. They count five coral fins. They count ten waving plants. The map points to a sunken chest. They feel happy.
They talk to a glowing sea star. The sea star gives a clue. The clue says look near the chest. They thank the sea star and wave.
They meet Pirate. Pirate is a small crab with a black hat and a wooden sword. He stands guard next to the sunken chest. His claws click on the sand. He says no one may take my treasure. Riley Anne says please we only want one shell. Wolf wags his tail. Pirate frowns. Pirate says show me a gift.
Riley Anne opens her small pouch. She shows a blue pearl. Pirate sees the pearl. His eyes light up. He smiles a tiny crab smile. He says very well you may take one shell from my chest.
Riley Anne and Wolf open the chest together. They see many shells inside. Some are blue. Some are pink. Some glow like moonlight. They find the shiny seashell. It is white with pink swirls. It shines like a small star. Riley Anne holds it gently. She thanks Pirate. Pirate waves his claw and nods kindly.
Riley Anne and Wolf swim back to the shore. They place the shiny shell into the glass jar. The jar glows and hums a happy tune. A fairy fish appears with silver fins and bright eyes. The fairy fish says thank you brave friends you found my shell.
The fairy fish gives them two glowing pearls. Riley Anne takes one and smiles. Wolf takes one and wags. They each have a new treasure.
They sit on warm sand and hold their pearls. They watch the reef glow in the sunset. Fish dance in the water. The sky paints pink and gold. Riley Anne and Wolf hug. They feel proud and happy. They whisper we helped each other.
They close their eyes and dream of their next adventure. The end.
