Ylime woke up one morning noticing her scales had lost their sparkle from living alone in her fish bowl for too long. She wanted friends like the other fish she was originally bought with. Through doing one hundred one-fin push-ups to build strength, Ylime pushed off from the bottom of her bowl with all her might to break through the surface of the water and try to land in the bowl with the other fish. Although she fell a little short, the other fish tilted their bowl just enough for Ylime to safely land inside so she could finally have friends to play with.

Emily Butcher Ylime woke up late one morning and noticed her once glowing orange-gold scales had begun to lose their sparkle. She had lived alone in this fish bowl for too long. Of course, most people when thinking of fish, do not think it matters if they have another fish with them or not. Well, Ylime begs to differ. When Ylime was bought from the pet store with four other fish, she was so eager to see what was in store. Although, she was nervous, she thought she would have friends. When they arrived at her new home, she was put in a separate bowl than the other fish. She thought at first that it meant she was the most special one. But after weeks of watching the other fish laugh and play from afar, she decided she could not take being alone any longer. She wanted friends too. Ylime needed to get stronger. She got to the point she could do one hundred one-fin push-ups. With her strength building, she knew what she had to do. Ylime swam to the very bottom of the tank and took a deep, deep breath. When she was ready to exhale, she pushed upward with all her might. All she had to do was get enough power to break out of the water and land in the other fish bowl. Her momentum was building. She broke through the water. She realized she was naturally holding her breath because she knew she could not breathe regular air. As she was descending, she noticed she was going to land a little short of the entrance at the top of the bowl. The other fish gasped. They knew what they had to do. All four little fish swam to the side of the bowl and pushed as hard as they could. They tilted the bowl just enough that Ylime safely landed in the water. They all cheered and greeted her with open fins. Now Ylime could have fun with them.
