The chemicals had burned his body and his eyes, and he had been blinded as a result of this terrible incident. Now, he was in another fast river and couldn’t get out. He was squealing and squealing for his friends, but he could not find them. Finally, the water smoothed out and slowed down. Topsey kept squealing and calling to his friends, but there was no sign of them.
Topsey became so tired. He decided to go up to the surface of the water and try to float. Even though he tried looking around, he was not able to see anything because he was blind. All he could do was squeal and squeal. He didn’t even know which way to swim because he had gotten all turned around in the riptide. He was so-o-o frightened.
His squeals grew softer and softer. Suddenly, he heard some other squeals! His friends, the Sea Gulls, were flying all around him, talking to him. They told Topsey they had seen his two friends swimming back to shore and his friends told them that Topsey was lost.
Many of the Sea Gulls rested on the water beside Topsey, which was hard to do since the waves were very choppy! They said, “Topsey, follow us and we will talk to you and lead you home.” The Sea Gulls that were still flying said that they would go and tell Turtella that Topsey was on his way home.
