3 Rotten Eggs vs. the Sharkfinders

ROTTEN EGGS VS. THE SHARK- FINOERS

"Listen up, people," said Miss D-is-not-for- Dungeon-or-Dragon. She passed out maps and scavenger-hunt sheets. "Who's ready to be a detective?" "D is for Detective!" said Sophie. "Miss Detective?" "Afraid not," said Miss D. "But S is for scavenger hunt." Everybody got into teams. "Our team is gonna beat you, Stink Moody," said Riley Rottenberger. "We're the Rotten Eggs— for Rottenberger. Get it?" "I get it. The last one to finish will be a Rotten Egg," said Stink. He cracked himself up. Riley and the Rotten Eggs headed off. "Let's be Team Sharkfinder," Stink said. "We can be the ones to find Sharkzilla on the scavenger hunt." Sophie shivered. Webster wiggled his loose tooth. "Who's Tharkzilla?" "Don't you guys watch Shark Week?" Stink asked. "Sharkzilla is a megalodon. He's like the world's biggest shark that lived around ten million years ago."

"What did he look like?" asked Webster. "He was more than fifty feet long and he weighed as much as a house. And he had two hundred and fifty teeth. They say he would be able to bite through a car." "Yikes," said Sophie. "But he's not real, right?" "He was. He was like a dinosaur shark," said Stink. "They made a model of him for Shark Week. Like a shark robot with giant chompers made of steel. He bit through a mini fridge, a Jet Ski, and a red couch in one bite." Webster felt for his loose tooth to make sure it was still there. "Is he here?" "I wish! But I read they have one of his fins here. It's seven feet tall and you can get your picture taken with it." "This is megalo-not-boring," said Sophie. "But everybody else already started the scavenger hunt." "First we have to find something that looks like a horse," said Stink. They followed the map, turning it this way and that until they came to Sea Horse Alley— a dark hallway lined with glass aquariums. There were

spiny sea horses and pygmy sea horses. There were sea horses with fat tummies and sea horses that looked like they had the measles. "What took you guys so long?" Riley and the Rotten Eggs called. "Looks like Team Rotten beat us here," said Webster. "What's next?" asked Sophie. "Next we find something that looks like a bat," said Stink. They wandered past the Sponge Zone and the Octopus's Garden. They gazed up at wolf eels and schools of sardines and se.oritas swimming through the swaying fronds of the kelp forest. At last, they came to Manta Ray Magic.

In no time, they spotted the bat ray. "Na-na-nana- na-na-na-na— Bat Ray!" sang Stink and Webster. "Bat rays lose tons of teeth from crushing shells to eat stuff," said Stink. "Just like me!" said Webster. Riley walked past the Sharkfinders on her way out of Manta Ray Magic. "We are the Rotten Eggs," she said to them, trying to sound like a bad guy from a Batman movie. "Learn it well, Stink Moody. It is the sound of your doom." Stink turned to his friends. "Hurry up, guys. Now we have to find something that looks like a brain." "Half the stuff in the aquarium looks like a brain," said Webster. Seals barked in the background as Team Sharkfinder entered Nemo's Reef. Wall-to-wall fish tanks held colorful clown fish playing hide- and-seek among sea anemones and neon-bright coral. One looked just like a floating brain! They all took a moment to gaze in amazement at the eerie, greenish, glow-in-the-dark brain coral.
