assignment (Sarah the sharknarwhal)

Everyone has heard of the stork. He flies from house to house dropping off random babies and then leaving them for the parents to find on their doorstep. But the stork isn't just limited to the land creatures and the people of the Earth, he also drops babies off for the under water creatures. One day he was flying high over the glistening ocean watching the waves crash against the rocks and roll in and out from the beaches. The sight was so beautiful that he dropped the bundle a little earlier than he was suppose to and watched it drop down, down, down, into the ocean landing at one of the houses. He had to many babies to deliver that week so he decided he would let the parents decide if they liked the child and if they didnt he would come back later on in the week to switch it back out. Down, down, down, into the ocean there was a small house that occupied five sharks. A momma shark, a daddy shark, and three boy sharks. When the daddy shark went out to fetch the mail on that early Monday morning he found a small bundle on the porch. He brought it inside to the rest of the sharks and they opened it up to find a baby girl shark.
"Are you sure its a shark momma? She sort of looks funny," said one of little boy sharks.
"Dont say that about your new baby sister!" the momma shark had yelled. And then they had named her Sarah. After a couple years, when Sarah was four, that was about the age they started feeding the sharks meat instead of bottle feeding them or grinding up vegatables since meat wouldnt agree with there system at the age, they realized Sarah was different. She didnt look like her older brothers or her parents and when they put the meat infront of her she refused to eat it.
"It smells funny. Can i have some seaweed?" Sarah had said. Her parents didn't know what to do, they couldn't force it on her. This continued throughout the years and when she was a teenager the meat problem grew bigger and caused rebellions. One day the momma shark was sitting in the kitchen very depressed.
"Why can't we get her to eat meat like the other sharks? And the boys are right she doesn't even look like a shark." And just at that moment there was a knock on the door. The stork equiped with lots of scuba gear walked in.
"I apologize," he said. "This baby wasn't meant for you, and in the beginning you looked like you were happy so i let you keep her," he explained. "And then of course i got side tracked, but im here to take the baby narwhal to her real parents. I apologize again, i will bring you another baby soon."
But when they went to go get Sarah they found the daddy shark and the three brothers with Sarah marinading in a pot. They had already discovered she was a narwhal and with the economy they decided that she was big enough to give them food for the next month. Just as the daddy shark was about to put her over the fire the stork snatched her away and brought her to live with her narwhal parents.
Sarah's childhood as a shark wasn't the best one but she visited her mother shark when the boys weren't home and they would talk for hours and became best friends. She also had a lot of fun with her narwhal parents who didnt eat meat just like she didn't eat meat.
The End.
