Under the deep blue sea in a coral reef lived a happy go lucky fish named Fin.

His home wasn't perfect but he felt at home.

He loved the structure of the reef he seen himself in the reflection of the anonymous structures.

He had a big group of friends.

They all looked out after each other. Built a life around each other.

They're favourite pass time was playing games they made up together.

Singing and laughing worries didn’t come often.

They didn't need anything to make them happy for as far as they knew they were happy.

Life was easy. The days went fast and time seemed to not matter.

One day a shark came thru and destroyed everything in its path.

Everyone scattered in a instinctive manner.

Fin kept running, before he knew it he was out of the reef, then the tide picked him up and took him away.

He wasn't sure which way to go. He was so far away from everything he was familiar with.

He found a rock to hide under for shelter but it was no home. Nothing really made sense these days.

He'd often dream of the reef and all his friends there.

He couldn't accept the fact those days were over.

He would often close his eyes and wake up and wish he was there.

He would do this repetitively. Until he decided he just wanted to close his eyes and not wake up or ever open them again.

Lost in the middle of a desolate ocean floor lived this fish named Fin.

He didn't talk or laugh much. He just lives in his head.

Replaying his memories as he sits underneath his rock.

He doesn't have fun.

But oh boy, did he used to.

He definitely used to...
