The next morning, Marlin opened his eyesonly to find Dory snoring loudly by his side. As he looked around, Marlin realized that they were hanging on TOP of the submarine by a strap1, over a huge pit. And they were sleeping on the pers mask.
The mask! They still had it!
Marlin peered down. The pit seemed bottomless.
Dory, wake up, Marlin said, shaking her gently.
Dory mumbled2 something about a bad haircut but continued to sleep.
Marlin was getting frustrated3. Get up! he said forcefully.
Aagh! Dory screamed and jumped, waking up.
At that moment, the submarine began to slide off the cliff. Dory and Marlin raced away from it just in time. They barely missed being crushed by the falling sub.
Marlin looked around frantically4. The mask, he said. Wheres the mask?
Dory and Marlin both looked down and saw the mask disappear into the blackness of the deep water.
No! No! Get it! Get the mask! Marlin yelled. He swam after it, followed by Dory.
Blackness swallowed the two fish up. They couldnt even see their own fins5.
Marlin swam up to the lighter|colored water, panting with fear.
It just keeps going on, doesnt it? Dory said.
She swam a little deeper, then popped back up next to Marlin. She looked surprised to see him. Hey! What are you doing?
Its gone. Ive lost the mask, Marlin said.
What, did you drop it? asked Dory innocently.
You dropped it! Marlin cried. That was my only chance of finding my son. And now its gone.
Hey, Mr. Grumpy Gills, Dory sang out. When life gets you down, you know what you gotta do?
I dont want to know what you gotta do, Marlin said crossly.
Just keep swimming, Dory told him. What do we do? We swim, swim.
Slowly, he swam down with Dory. Farther farther farther into the deep. Dory, he said after a while. Do you see anything?
Dory gasped6, unable to see in the total darkness. Whos that?
Who could it be? Its me! Marlin replied.
Are you my conscience? asked Dory.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Im your conscience. Now, I want you to tell medo you see anything? Marlin asked.
I see a light! Over there! Dory exclaimed.
I see it, too! Marlin cried.
A small glowing ball of light floated in the distance. Marlin couldnt look away. It had him under some kind of spell. It made him feel happy.
It apparently7 had the same effect on Dory. Its so pretty. I want to touch it, she said.
The light danced in the water.
Dory and Marlin followed the light. Marlin thought it was strange that the light made him feel happy. But then he had a funny feeling. Like something was watching him. He turned around. A deadly anglerfish with huge fangs8 floated right behind them! The light dangled9 from its antenna10, like bait. Good feelings gone, he said to Dory.
Marlin and Dory raced into the darkness. The anglerfish chased them. Its glowing orb11 gave them their only light.
I cant see! I dont know where Im going! Marlin cried.
Suddenly, the light fell on something familiar. The pers mask! But the anglerfish was gaining on themits jaws12 ready to snap!
Marlin pulled Dory down deeper. The anglerfish shot past, missing them in the darkness.
But they were safe only for a moment. The anglerfish came back, searching for them. It swung close to Marlin, lighting13 the water nearby.
Hey, look, a mask! Dory exclaimed. Read it! Marlin said as he launched himself forward in the water, leading the anglerfish away.
Uh Im sorry, but if you could just bring him a little closer? Dory asked. I kinda need the light.
Marlin swam all around Dory with the anglerfish right on his tail. He ducked between two rocks, safe for a second. He grabbed the antenna light and directed it toward Dory.
The first line is P. Sherman, Dory said. Second line 42 Waaa
Marlin was yanked up and away from the rocks. The anglerfish swallowed him and its own antenna whole.
In the sudden darkness, Dory said, Light, please.
Inside the anglerfish, Marlin screamed. The anglerfish opened its mouth and Marlin shot outalong with the light.
The second line is 42 Wallaby Way, Dory said.
Thats great, Marlin said anxiously. Just finish up here. Speed|read.
As the furious anglerfish barreled straight toward them, Dory shouted out, Sydney! Its Sydney!
Duck! Marlin cried.
Dory dove as Marlin lifted the mask.
The anglerfish crashed into the mask, sending them into a spin.
Then all was quiet. Marlin squinted14. He thought for sure he had been eaten. The anglerfish was now wedged between the mask and a rock. It flapped around helplessly, stuck.
Ha, ha! Marlin laughed as he and Dory swam toward the surface.
No eating here tonight! the two fish sang together.
Then Marlin turned to Dory. So what did the mask say?
P. Sherman. 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney. She gasped, not believing it herself. I remembered what it said! I usually forget things, but I remembered it that time. P. Sherman, 42
Wait! Marlin interrupted. Now, where is that?
I dont know, Dory replied. But who cares? I remembered!
第二天早上，马林睁开双眼居然发现多莉在他旁边大声地打着呼噜。他向周围看了看，意识到他们被一根带子吊着挂在了潜水艇的顶部，下面就是巨大的洞。他们正睡在潜水员的面罩上。
面罩！面罩还在他们手上！
马林眯着双眼向下仔细看了看。这个洞好像深不见底。
多莉，醒醒。马林说着，轻轻地晃动她。
多莉含糊不清地说着什么难看的发型，但继续呼呼大睡。
马林此刻感觉非常失望。快起来!他狠狠地叫道。
啊!多莉醒过来，尖叫一声跳了起来。
就在这个时候，潜水艇开始滑下悬崖。马林和多莉准时地逃离了潜水艇。他们差一点就被坠落的潜水艇压扁。
马林拼命地东张西望。面罩，他说，面罩呢?
多莉和马林都往下看，看见面罩消失在深海处的一片黑暗之中。
不！不！抓住它！抓住面罩!马林大喊。他游着追寻着面罩，多莉紧跟其后。
黑暗把这两条鱼吞没了。他们甚至连我们的鳍都看不见。
马林游到亮一点的地方，由于忧虑而喘息着。
它就那样掉下去了，是否?多莉说。
她游得更深了一点，然后忽然折回到马林旁边。她吃惊地看着他。喂！你在做什么?
它不见了。我丢了那个面罩。马林说。
什么，你把它弄掉了?多莉无辜地问。
是你弄掉的!马林大叫起来，那是找到我儿子的唯一机会。目前它丢了。
嘿，坏脾气先生，多莉大声喊道，当生活叫你失望的时候，了解你该干什么吗?
我不想了解你该干什么。马林生气地说。
只须游泳，多莉告诉他，大家干什么？只须游泳，只须游泳。
慢慢地，他和多莉一块往深处游。愈加深愈加深多莉，过了一会儿他说，你看到什么东西了吗?
多莉喘着气，在一片漆黑中什么也看不见。是哪个?
还能是哪个？是我!马林回答。
你是我的良心吗?多莉问。
是的，是的，是的。我是你的良心。目前，我想叫你告诉我你看到什么东西了吗?马林问。
我看到一道亮光！在那边!多莉大喊。
我也看见了!马林大叫。
一个小小的闪烁的光球在远处漂动。马林的视线没办法移动。他仿佛着了魔。这东西让他非常高兴。
这对多莉好像也有同样的成效。它好漂亮。我想摸摸它。她说。
光在水里跳舞。
多莉和马林追伴随亮光。马林想，这亮光让他感觉非常高兴，真奇怪。但，接着他有一种奇怪的感觉。仿佛有哪些东西在看着他。他转过身。一条长着巨大尖牙的致命的琵琶鱼，就在他们身后！亮光悬挂在它的触须上，就像鱼饵。好感觉没了。他对多莉说。
马林和多莉冲进黑暗中。琵琶鱼在他们身后追赶。只有他发光的触须为他们照亮。
我看不见了！我不了解我在往什么地方游!马林大叫。
忽然，亮光照到某个熟知的东西上。潜水员的面罩！但琵琶鱼正逼近他们它的嘴正要咬住他们！
马林拖着多莉往更深处游。琵琶鱼冲了过去，由于水里太黑，没抓住他们。
但他们只不过安全了一会儿。琵琶鱼又回来找他们了。他在马林旁边摆动着，照亮了附近的海域。
嘿，看，面罩!多莉大喊。快念!马林一边说，一边飞速往前游，把琵琶鱼引开。
哦 对不起，你能让他再挨近一点儿吗?多莉问，我需要一点亮光。
马林在多莉周围游着，琵琶鱼紧跟着它。他躲在两块岩石中间，有一会儿是安全的。他抓住了触须灯，让它对着多莉。
第一行是P.谢尔曼，多莉说，第二行42号沃
马林被猛地从礁石那儿拽走。琵琶鱼把他和他一个人的整个触须都吞了下去。
多莉身处一片忽然即将来临的漆黑中，说：请来点亮光。
马林在琵琶鱼的身体里尖叫。琵琶鱼张开嘴巴，马林从里面钻出来和亮光一块。
第二行是沃拉比路42号。多莉说。
太棒了，马林焦急地说，快点读完。读快点儿。
当恼火的琵琶鱼向他们飞速冲过来的时候，多莉大喊：悉尼!是悉尼!
闪开!马林大叫。
马林举起面罩时，多莉快点下潜。
琵琶鱼撞到了面罩，让他们旋转了起来。
然后，一片寂静。马林眯着双眼看。他觉得自己一定被吃掉了。琵琶鱼这会儿被夹在面罩和一块岩石中间。它卡住了，无助地朝四周摆动着。
哈哈!马林一边大笑，一边和多莉朝水面游去。
今晚没得吃了!两条鱼一块唱着。
接着，马林转向多莉。那样，面罩上写的是什么?
悉尼沃拉比路42号。P.谢尔曼。她喘着气，连自己都不敢相信，我记住上面写的字了！我一般都忘事，但这次我记住了。P.谢尔曼，42号
等等!马林打断她的话。那样，那个地方在什么地方?
我不了解，多莉回答，但哪个在乎呢？反正我记住了!
