The Dolphin: Story of a Dreamer Page #3

escape without my permission.

But they are my friends. Sometimes

when I need to breathe, I use them.

See?

They come in handy when

you have to breathe.

And my star is mine.

Yes, my star is mine and only mine.

I'm sleepy.

Huh?

Hmm?

Dream... or don't dream.

Come... or don't.

- Leader!

- What is wrong with you?

You know it's bedtime.

- The rest of the pod is already asleep.

- I can't sleep.

That's no reason

to hang out here all alone.

Can I ask you something about the sun?

About the sun?

Yes, the sun.

Does it ever look different?

The sun is always the sun.

It moves through the sky during

the day, if that's what you mean.

No, no. Not that.

Does it ever do anything strange?

Anything that might be

out of the ordinary?

Why are you asking? Oh, just wondering.

I guess I'm just curious.

I'd be happy if you just showed

this much interest when you're fishing.

Sometimes I feel like

I'm not like the rest.

Nonsense. Come on.

It's time we get you back to bed.

Let's go.

Don't eat my sea urchins!

They're mine and only mine!

Huh?

Huh?

Ah!

Maybe the leader really is right.

There comes a time in life, Daniel,

when there's nothing else to do

but to go your own way,

a time to follow your dreams,

a time to raise the sails

of your own beliefs.

Who are you?

You're not the manta.

- Your voice sounds different.

- I am the Voice of the Sea.

The Voice of the Sea?

Yes, Daniel.

The manta that I sent to you in

the lagoon is one of my angels.

She told me about you.

You're ready.

Ready for what?

Ready to take the great leap

into the unknown,

far from the safety of the lagoon.

What should I do?

How will I know

the true purpose of my life?

You will find the true

purpose of your life...

the day you surf the perfect wave,

the one you've been

dreaming of for so long.

Daniel!

Come back!

- Uh...

- Daniel Alexander Dolphin!

Come back immediately, or

you will regret it forever.

Daniel, what are you doing?

Daniel, this is the last time.

Come back, Daniel. Now!

I'm gonna miss you, Michael.

Daniel, no.

Good-bye, Michael.

Good-bye, Daniel.

Now listen to me, everyone.

Today, one of us has broken the law.

It was Daniel.

Daniel chose to leave this pod.

Daniel Alexander Dolphin...

is now an outcast forever.

The dreamer is finally out.

The next morning,

Daniel Alexander Dolphin found himself

in the middle of a huge ocean,

not knowing which way to go,

but willing to follow

the voice of his heart.

Ah.

How'd I get stuck in the...

I just wanna...

Huh?

- Ouch!

- Ah!

I gotta get outta here!

Oh, gosh!

How do I get myself

into these sort of things?

You mind helping me out over here?

Sure. I'll try.
