Axeblade was walking along when he saw the beach and he didn't have much else to do at the moment so he decided to go down to the beach. When he got down there he saw a few seagulls swooping down from the air and trying to catch small fish. Axeblade sat watching the seagulls on the beach more a few minutes and soon got bored got started to walk down the beach to look for shells like he did when he was just a little otter. He found a mollusk and dug a hole in the sand only big enough so that he could put the mollusk in the hole and cover it up with sand. Once Axeblade had put the mollusk in the hole and covered it up he found a stick and stuck it on top of the mollusk hole so that Axeblade could come back and find the shell as he did when he was just a little otter with his father. After Axeblade had down that he started to walk down the right side of the beach if you were faceing the ocean. He found a crab shell, got on his knees and picked it up. This shell wasn't empty though. The shell still had someone living there. It was just a small hermit crab but the crab pinched the back of Axeblade's left hand making Axeblade throw the crab into the ocean. Axeblade wrapped his right hand around his crab pinched left hand and put on a smile on his face since he hadn’t ha that done to him since he was on his first hunt for shells with his dad. Axeblade started to walk towards the ocean and he saw that the sky was getting darker which meant that it was getting late. Axeblade didn’t feel like having to walk all the way back to town though it wasn’t far Axeblade thought that it might be good idea to just sleep on the sand under the stars. He saw some wood on the grass behind the beach and got up off of his knees and walked over to the sticks and got as many as he could to make a fire. When he got back to where he was kneeling, Axeblade set the sticks down and started to make a fire. He found a few other hermit crabs and got them out of there shells and put them on a large stick that he rested on some other sticks that were making a tripod on either side of the fire to cook the crabs. After the crabs were cooked Axeblade took the stick that they were pierced through and took the crabs off and started to eat them one by one. The crabs were very good and Axeblade wanted more, but was too tired and it was too dark to find anymore. So, Axeblade land down on hhis side, formed the saind into something like a pillow and soon fell asleep.
