Saturday, December 25th. 6:25 PM. Crescent Moon Beach. "The Pacific Brothers? You know about them?" asked Daina. "They're a huge poaching concern in our part of the world," Tanaka answered. "Actually, I take it upon myself to thwart their efforts if I happen to spot them." "Mr. Sakamoto, you have powers too?" asked Dad in shock. "Yes. Let's just say I control the wind." "Look! They're rounding up the turtles!" said Ameera. "I'd better get down there before they end up damaging too many eggs." "Mom, can we help?" I asked her. Mom sighed wearily as if she already knew I was going to ask. "I'd rather you let Tanaka handle it. He's clearly a professional in this matter. Besides, a large group will further endanger the eggs." "I hadn't thought of that..." I placed my hand on my chin.
