The Hatching

1. The turtles legs were free to the ocean air.
2. Looking at the path ahead, the ocean was wide and clear in site.

As the newborn turtle emerged from the egg, he knew his life was already in danger.
The turtle started to sprinted to the ocean, to be free. As he was scuttling across the sand,
out of the corner of his eye he noticed a bird gliding towards him.
He jumped aside as the bird swooped down to catch him. The bird
squawked with rage!
The bird dove back down to try again. She hit the little turtle's leg, but misted again!
He was inches away from the ocean.
The bird dove down once again to take it to her chicks.
But by the time the mamma bird got near to there ground, the little turtle was already in the ocean.

  The little turtle was in the water now and he was safe. He knew he didn't have a name.
So he decided to call himself Billy.
Billy didn’t know how to swim but, he picked it up pretty quickly though.
As he grew up Billy learned to hunt for food and was a professional at swimming.
Billy also made some really awesome friends as well.

The End.
