Aluette had reached Elonia and, using her wings to glide, was flitting from one sky island to the next when the rain began. She shook, spraying droplets from her fur all about her, and watched admiringly as a rainbow arched overhead.
Suddenly, a school of fish swam into view.
"I have a terrible problem!" The speaker was a green fish with pink spots, floating near Aluette's ear.
"Is it..." Aluette guessed, "that you've lost the water you were swimming in?"
A yellow fish nearby laughed, bubbles popping out of its mouth.
"No," said the green fish, "I've got a power, you see.. the power to make my whole school swim in the air as well as the water. So that isn't the problem... but the problem is, we swam all the way up here and we can't remember the way back to Aquahana."
"And there's a big party there starting very soon, we don't want to miss it," the yellow fish added.
"You are in luck," Aluette said. "I know how to get to Aquahana. But it's a long flight. You might still miss the party. You'll need to fly east until you're out of the clouds, and then turn south..." she gave all the details she knew, finally finishing up with "Did you get all that?"
"Not any of it," the fish said sadly. "I have a terrible memory. Did it start with going south? Or was that after going out of the clouds? I'm so confused..."
"I have an idea. We could have a party here!" Aluette sounded enthusiastic. "Since there's not time to get home for the other party, why not stay here in Elonia for a while and party with me?"
So the fish all had a party with Aluette, then she flew with them to Aquahana so they could get home. When they all arrived in Aquahana, of course they had another party there. All in all the flying Lunaris was exhausted when she finally got home.
