Shocked and surprised my body froze to the frightening and shocking noise of a shark, but not just any shark it was a colossal whale shark. Shocked I stared at its gigantic mouth gradually opening right in front of my eyes, I swam with my heart beating as fast as a race and my arms and legs rapidly moving side to side. Then a sudden feeling made me shake, I froze still and slowly tilted my head around, still shaking with fear, I found myself facing nothing but the deep dark blue sea. Running out of breath, I slowly creeped my head they other way and almost fainted at the sight of the colossal whale shark staring eye to eye with me. Its dark blue eyes perfectly blended in with the colour of the sea and made me drop my mouth open letting in a current of water. I swam and swam but my swimming abilities were no match for the whale’s. I just reached the top of the wet surface of the sea and got half a breath and felt the tips of my toes get sucked in the whale's mouth.
My eyes opened with fear at the sound of water rushing right beside him. Then the next thing I knew I was pushed by a strong current. Then I woke back up on the side of an old misty road, filled with fog at every corner. I looked in my bag, that seemed to be rather heavier than usual and found an old grandfather clock that seemed quite useless. It seemed quite useless but nevertheless I carried it on my journey. About halfway there I noticed a strange ticking sound that seemed quite curious, I checked in my bag and saw the clock ticking then right in front of my eyes, I saw an astonishing site of the clock turning into a giant portal to who knows where. Shocked I carefully took a step back then wondered to myself what to do, but before I could decide I tripped over my laces and fell down into the portal dramatically.
I opened my eyes carefully and glanced at the surroundings around me. I saw the beautiful site of many scaley sea turtles hatching from their eggs. Still shocked and wondering what to do I slowly approached the beautiful turtles and wondered what had just happened
Kia ora Elio, I hope you’re having a great day!

P.s If you could please change the colour of the font to white or yellow, that would be a lot easier for us to read on top of the dark blue background. Thanks!
