''Plants died?'' Kendra weakly whispered.

''Not all waters are like the River of Death. This water circulates around this world with a strange machine and gathers all the darkness and bad things inside. They made the decision to throw this liquid at one of the strange worlds and it started turning into a strange power river. Only a few gallons of this river can turn the whole continent into dust. But they realized then that most of the worlds have many protective creatures. So they chose to destroy the protective creatures and destroy the worlds. The power they inhale is the liquid form of the power of life in any world. They would thin it and let humans digest it to survive, instead eating solid food.'' The turtle started walking away and continued her trip. 

Tears streamed down Kendra's eyes as she saw fake plants everywhere. Even for humans, the two turtles were quite a sight and they stopped from time to time to look at them with worry. Animals decimated so much that they knew about every living animal in their world.

the humans in those uniforms appeared again and saw the little turtle strangely crying, as it turned its head here and there. A strange anxiousness overcame their hearts. Few of them started crying soundlessly as they saw the big turtle walking around with a tiny weak creature on her back.

It seemed to show this world to the little creature that just looked around and cried. Tiny drops of tears slowly turned into tiny rivers that flew down turtles back and disappeared in the dust of the street. The more the little turtle cried, the more people followed its trail and quietly cried as well.

Soon the big turtle approached á beautiful looking blue sea, but it didn't go in and just walked on the soundless beach slowly. Vehicles stopped and more and more humans stopped to see a strange sight. Two turtles, one big, one small were followed by a bunch of crying people.

Suddenly a strange vehicle appeared out nowhere and scanned the two turtles. Feeling strangely Kendra turned her head and small cry could be heard from her tiny mouth. The big turtle turned her head towards the vehicle and hissed angrily.

Humans that followed the creatures became anxious. They wouldn't harm them? Not many of them are left. But luckily the strange flying thing just turned around and left.

The tiny turtle turned around and looked at the humans behind her and tiny sound again could be heard from her mouth. Again it sounded the cry and made everyone look at each other. One of those men in uniforms approached and looked at the little tortoise that rose her head and started crying at them.

''What is it? What doe s it want?'' They couldn't understand but followed as they saw the big turtle continuing her way towards the huge building near the sea. Now the big turtle started hissing and crying while shaking her head. Rows of rows, of long pipes, were dug deep into the water and the turtle hut the pipe with her head. She started hitting it again and again, making the protectors feel scared.

''Stop please, please stop, you will hurt yourself.'' But nothing could stop the big turtle, as she hit again and again at the big pipe. 

But unfortunately for them teh turtle continued to hit the same spot on teh pipe. Suddenly strange thing happened. The pipe broke and strange black liquid started dropping out. The turtle turned around and started walking away and screaming at them.

Strangely everyone backed off. They could see turtle rus.h.i.+ng higher and higher the hill up and they followed her. As they went to the top of the nearby hill, the turtle turned around towards pipes and screamed at the sea. 

People turned around and froze as they saw horrifying thing happening. The pipes suddenly corroded and the whole sea turned black from one moment to the other. They could hear deep cries of the little turtle and saw it tearing up again. More and more vehicles stopped on the side road and saw the sea looking like it was filled with ink.

''You were right. But how did you know?'' The big turtle asked.

''Didn't you realize that your body never turned towards the sea? Even tho the sea looked like it was clean and beautiful, but neither you nor humans felt need to wet your feet inside. You are turtle, that is a basic need. To swim inside water happily. But your body somehow knew. It knew it was wrong. So it just went straight. Not even with little toe touching the liquid...''

The two animals quietly looked at the strange flying thing quickly flying to the leak, closing it and then touching the water. Suddenly water again changed and turned blue. But no matter how they look the people on the small hill just stood there frozen and saw big turtle going to the water sniffling it and walking backwards as if running away from it.

The turtle came to the protector, rubbed her head on his body and sadly shook her head. Then she turned around and moved away. The people realized that the sea creeped them out already for years, now they knew the real reason why.

They turned around and the two creatures already disappeared, leaving the people behind that had many thoughts. Fear, anger and disappointment spread their hearts and soon the trouble awaited their world. 

Turtle slowly walked as it had no more strength. ''For a turtle, I am not even old, why do I feel like I will die soon?'' There was no regret in creatures voice, just wonder. After all, she is a turtle now...
