Something very odd is happening in the waters around Rainbow Reef.
Strange wave surges have disrupted life undersea and endangered ships sailing
the waters above. Freak currents and weird tides continue to sweep over rock
and reef, causing the Rainbow Reef’s denizens all kinds of trouble.
Ariel had been looking forward to spending some time with her pal
Flounder, searching old shipwrecks for sunken treasure, and
hanging out with her friends around the reef. This funny
weather is sure going to change her plans. In between rescuing
her friends, finding the scattered members of the Barnacle
Band, and figuring out what’s causing all the
weirdness, there won’t be any time for
treasure hunting.
Or… If she hurries, maybe
there will be a little time for
treasure hunting
in between.
