Hyperoodon was left alone on the sand.
He had no followers to lead and command.
âI shall neither budge, nor shall I ever bend,
Each one of those wimps was a fair-weather friend,
âAnd as he said this all alone to the sea,
He suddenly realized he had company.
A shark he had chased earlier in the day,
Had now returned to make the hunter his prey.
Hyperoodon swam as quickly as he could,
But the hungry shark was as swift and as good
As the stubborn whale he ruthlessly pursued
With a vengeful fury by the chase renewed.
The dark waters thundered with much commotion,
As is the trait of a treacherous ocean,
When two mighty forces determined to kill,
Collide to do battle with patience and skill.
All the sea creatures scurried from the melee,
Except the beaked whales. They could not turn away
And leave one of their youths to perish alone.
It was not their nature to forsake their own.
The waters roared with Hyperoodonâs cries,
Which pierced through the heart of the oldest and wise.
âIt is this herdâs duty to answer his call,â
Said Ziphi, the eldest and wisest of all,
And when the bold warrior gave them the cue,
They swished and swam to Hyperoodonâs rescue,
Who had, at that moment, escaped the sharkâs threat
By getting entangled in a whalerâs net.
