Una is a brave cowboy girl by the big ocean. She lives in a small cozy beach cabin. She rides her gentle pony on the soft sand. Her cowboy hat is wide and made of leather. She loves to collect shiny shells and sea glass. Each shell has a special shape and bright color. One morning she finds a bright red shell shining. The shell seems worried and very alone on the sand. The shell speaks softly with a little tiny voice. Help me please, the shell says in a whisper. Una hears the plea and feels a warm glow inside. She nods and carefully picks up the little shell. I will help you, says Una in a kind voice. She hears footsteps and a faint voice flying above. Storm Chaser comes gliding down with a cheerful chirp. He is a playful seagull friend with bright white feathers. Storm Chaser loves the breezy sky and rolling waves. He offers to help find the lost shell’s true home. Una smiles and passes the shell up to him. Storm Chaser flies high to look over the water. He sees a small tide pool near a big rock. The shell shines brighter when he flies over the pool. This must be your home, he calls down to Una. Una nods and steps carefully toward the tide pool. Suddenly a small crab scuttles out from under seaweed. He has a tiny black mask and shiny claws. It is Bandit the crab with a sneaky grin. Bandit wants to steal the shiny shell from them. He clicks his claws and scampers toward Una quickly. Una stands firm and holds the shell close to her. Storm Chaser swoops low to block Bandit’s path. He squawks loudly to scare the crab away. Bandit hesitates and flicks his claws uncertainly. Una smiles and speaks in a gentle calm tone. We want to help this shell find its home. Bandit looks at the pool water and thinks. He scuttles back slowly without the shell in his claws. Storm Chaser lands beside Una with a proud chirp. The red shell glows softly under the clear sky. Una gently places the shell in the cool water. The shell settles down and smiles a tiny smile. Thank you, friends, the shell whispers with joy. Una feels a soft happy glow in her heart. Storm Chaser chirps and flaps his wings in delight. Bandit helps gather tiny shells from around the pool. He offers a small shell gift to Una kindly. Una smiles and thanks Bandit with a gentle nod. They all sit by shimmering waves in soft sand. The sun dips low and paints the sky with pinks. Una counts colorful shells and shares them with friends. Storm Chaser dances with joyful flaps above their heads. Bandit claps his claws softly in gentle applause. They learn that kindness and sharing bring warm smiles. Una makes a small shell crown for her new friends. Storm Chaser wears it gently atop his white feathers. Bandit balances it on his little crab shell back. They laugh softly as the waves hum a lullaby. Night falls gently and stars appear in the sky. Una waves goodnight and thanks her dear ocean friends. Storm Chaser soars up and whispers a soft goodnight. Bandit tucks in his claws and drifts to sleep. Una lies in her cozy cabin bed feeling happy. She dreams of gentle waves and bright shiny seashells. Tomorrow will bring new adventures and more kind moments. Una is a cowboy girl with a big kind heart.
