A Curious Mermaid
Once upon a time, in the deep, dark sea, there lived a little mermaid named Pearl. She had pretty blue hair and a shiny green tail. Pearl loved to explore the ocean.
One day, Pearl saw a strange light far away. "What's that?" she wondered. She swam closer to look. The light was coming from a magic shell!
Pearl picked up the shell. It felt warm in her hands. "Wow!" she said. "I've never seen anything like this before!"
She decided to show her best friend, a funny little fish named Bubbles. Together, they swam off to find more sea treasures.

The Sunken Ship
The next day, Pearl and Bubbles went on an adventure. They swam and swam until they saw something big and dark.
"Look!" said Pearl. "It's a sunken ship!"
The ship was very old. It had lots of seaweed growing on it. Pearl and Bubbles swam closer to look inside.
Through a window, they saw something shiny. "Is that treasure?" asked Bubbles.
"Let's go see!" said Pearl. They were both very excited to explore the old ship and find out what was inside.

The Friendly Octopus
As Pearl and Bubbles swam into the ship, they heard a funny noise. "Bloop, bloop!" It was coming from behind a big rock.
Suddenly, a big purple octopus popped out! Pearl and Bubbles were surprised.
"Hello there!" said the octopus. "I'm Ollie. Are you looking for treasure?"
Pearl nodded. "Yes, we are!"
Ollie smiled. "I know where it is! Want me to show you?"
Pearl and Bubbles were happy to make a new friend. "Yes, please!" they said together.
Ollie waved his tentacles. "Follow me!" he said, and off they went to find the treasure.

The Magic Pearl
Ollie led Pearl and Bubbles to a big treasure chest. It was locked!
"Oh no!" said Pearl. "How can we open it?"
Ollie winked. "Watch this!" He used his strong tentacles to pull the lock. Pop! It opened!
Inside the chest was a big, shiny pearl. It glowed with magic light.
"Wow!" said Pearl, Bubbles, and Ollie together.
The magic pearl floated up and spun around. It made the whole ocean sparkle and shine.
From that day on, the sea was never dark again. Pearl, Bubbles, and Ollie had many more happy adventures in their bright, beautiful ocean home.
The end.
