"Maybe big pearls are in them," the ponies mused, and they asked the shells to let them peek inside. The shells slowly opened, and the ponies gasped with surprise. Curled up in each shell was a Fancy Mermaid Pony, shimmering like a pearl! The adorable babies wiggled their tails and splashed into the ocean, where they swam and played with the delighted ponies, who were pleased to meet such wonderful friends from the sea. •
