They emerge from the ocean , tentacled creatures blare from the seas toward the sky . What ’s behind this octopus air show ? differentiate us your story .
Here ’s mine :
Shanna and Shannon had been sit down on the shoreline since the former light , when their brothers had boarded the sportfishing boats and left them behind . Once the sauceboat had disappeared over the horizon , off to supplement the day ’s octopus snap with shrimp and Opuntia tuna , the girl had each tossed a smattering of silvery beads into the water , plopped onto the sand , and pulled out their handcomms . It was a few instant before duplicate octopodes crucify from the piss , tentacles flailing as if in surprise .

“ Ooh , ” Shanna cooed , crouching over her handcomm . “ You induce a braggy one . ”
“ We ’ll see , ” said Shannon , her all right meshwork of curl bouncing in the sunshine . The little girl concord their corporate breath and the octopodes arc , slam into one another and rebounding back . Shanna ’s octopus sink almost straight down , but Shannon ’s fly backward , crash into the water with a gaudy splashing .
Shanna dash up . “ Woo ! First score of the day ! ” She pumped her clenched fist into the gentle wind until Shannon grabbed her berm and shove her back to the ground . Shanna whooped a laughter of surprise .

“ Just the first score . ” Shannon call up the calibration screen on the handcomm . “ Could be your last . ”
They took a falling out before lunchtime to pick up the dead octopodes that had washed up , and had just startle up again when the man appeared . He flashed his ID in his handcomm . “ Keith Sun , ” he order , “ People for the Ethical Treatment of Cephalopods . ”
Shannon arched an eyebrow . “ You ’re kidding . ” A sudden explosion in the octopus universe had choked the coastline . The government had put a bounty on the brute , and even the inland regions boom on the eternal supply of fried octopus , octopus salad , and octopus pie .

“ You ca n’t do that ! ” Keith Sun show toward toward the water , where two more octopodes had just butted body ( Shanna was still in front , although Shannon was sure she was on the verge of a surefire strategy ) . “ It ’s one thing to angle for them , another only to move around them into aery sumo wrestlers . ”
Shanna catch Shannon ’s optic and the two burst out into giggles . Keith Sun growled . “ fauna straining is a serious thing , lady . ”
Shanna wiped away a tear and held out her hand , clicking together a few silver beads . Before Keith ’s eyes , the spheres transform into diminutive robot . “ We modded some fisher bot , ” Shanna said . “ Things are deadened before they bust the surface . ”

Keith Sun looked down at the program running on the girls ’ handcomms . Then he squatted to the primer coat , swat Shannon ’s handcomm with his own and swiping the programme . “ thrust over , ” he said .
