Once Upon a Time, there was a small village named SnailTropolis, where there was a small Deli called the Shell Deli, a pub to the North of Swirl Street and a many homes located all over the place. The village was quite small and most everyone knew each other. All of the small snail children played Slime Ball outside but there was on snail who was always left out of activities. No one would allow him to play games with them. When he walked outside he wouldn't get far before snails would make fun of him. The reason others made fun of little ShellWater was because his shell was purple but he was a boy, this was very rare. They also made fun of him because he was a moms boy, which meant he relied on his mom very much. ShellWater was very small for his age but he was unusually good at sketching. Day in and day out ShellWater would peek out his window and watch the other snails play. He wished he could play and have friends, as far as he was concerned Snails only friend was his mother. He always dreamed of being a great warrior one day but nothing seemed to happen in the village until a new snail came to town with his gang. His name was Sheldon and he had 5 members in the gang. Vermeer, Kevin, Melvin, Rob and Vince. They would ride on there bikes wreaking havoc on the poor snails that lived in the village. ShellWater saw his chance to become a true warrior. Walking up to his mother he asked her if she had any salt. She said yes but be very, very careful with it. She handed him the bottle of salt and Shell had made his way outside. And there they were Sheldon and his gang knocking over the neighbors garbage cans. ShellWater walked out into the street, terrified that something would happen. ShellWater called out to them and told them to stop. They had laughed at what he said. Then Shell pulled out the salt and began to shake it on the gang. They screamed in pain as they slithered out of the village except for Sheldon, who seemed to ignore the pain as he ran at ShellWater. Shell slithered away but they soon came to the Salt Pit filled with salt. Sheldon smirked as he pushed ShellWater in but something happened. ShellWater grabbed Sheldon ad pulled him with him. They fell in together, one great warrior full of water and one evil menace full of hate. On that day Sheldons gang and Sheldon himself had been defeated and the village was safe. But also on that day the village had lost a great warrior. ShellWater had left the village and the world forever but he had not died. He still lived on in the hearts of many and in a new land. But will ShellWater return?
