Aqua & Fina: A Tale of Chemical Adventure

Meet Aqua and her sister Fina.

Hi! I'm Fina. I know I look a lot like my sister but I am unique!

Hi! I'm Aqua!

Aqua and Fina come from a long line of Diatomic Molecules that are in our atmosphere, which are highly regarded as a result of their station high above the Earth.

Fina

One day, Aqua took one of Fina's protons. This made Fina sad because Aqua had taken her positivity and the action gave her negative thoughts.

Why'd you do that sis? I really liked that proton and now i'm sad.

Fina

i'm feeling so pumped now! I feel like I can do anything!! I've never felt this way before. Though, it is a little uncomfortable.

Aqua

Aqua, feeling full of positivity, decided to explore the world, leaving poor Fina behind.

In her travels, Aqua came across a chloride ion, named Chloe.

Chloe

When Chloe saw how positive Aqua was, she became envious. Chloe decided to take one of Aqua's protons and leave.
