What Mattered Most

Chapter 1: The note
It was a peaceful morning in Atlantis. Merchants were selling their products, fishers were fishing, and the Heart of Atlantis was hovering over the great city. Milo Thatch walked out of the palace on his way to the library. He liked reading about Atlantis' past and he also looks for good books that can help him teach his wife, Kida, and the rest of Atlantis how to read and write their own language.
When Milo reached the library, he went to his favorite reading spot, only to find that someone got there first.
"Good morning, Milo."
"Good morning to you, too, Kida," Milo replied.
Milo noticed she was still trying to finish reading the Shepard's Journal, the book written by a man, Aziz, which got Milo and the Ulysses crew to Atlantis. "You seem a little too cheerful today. What's going on?" Milo asked as he took a seat next to her. "It is nothing. I just feel this will be a good day," Kida sorta lied.
Actually, today was Milo's birthday and Kida had found something to show him. Even though it was in the outer-most ring, there was a small place full of things from Atlantis' past. Problem was, it was a little far of, and a flock of haywoods and a herd of bomonts were inbetween.
"Milo, could you come with me today to explore the city? I want to show you something." "Sure. Wha-." Milo was interrupted by a loud horn. As the horn wailed, Milo and Kida quickly looked at each other and got out of their seats and were running out of the library. That horn was to say that people are either at the boundry or are in Atlantis and both of them didn't know who was coming, even though they had an idea who.
Coming to Atlantis on a boat called The Armada was their friends. The boat came to the docks and they all got off. Vinnie was the first to greet the two. "Hey, thought we'd ah come and ah visit ya." "Yeah, wanted a place to visit and thought I'd come here and visit you two." Audrey added. "Also came to wish you a happy birthday and give you this note from Chakashi." came a voice from the boat, which Milo reconized to be Mr. Whitmore."Chakashi?" Milo and Kida said together. "Yes, Chakashi. He said somethin' 'bout both of you comin' to that place where he dropped us off at. He said something about ancient guardians,too." Dr. Sweet explained. "Then I guess we should be going." Kida said.
So while Milo and Kida where getting ready to go, the rest of the team was exploring the city. "Ya know, I'm thinking of moving here and planting my flower shop here,too." Vinnie proclaimed after politely turning down a fresh fish offer. "As tempting as it is, I'm not gonna move for awhile." Audrey added. "Ready to go?" Sweet asked as he saw Milo and Kida approching. "Yup. We just have to wait until Mole gets back." As if on cue, Mole came running up. He smelled like he was rolling in dirt. "Shall we be goeeng?" Then they jumped in the boat and set off for the States.
