Welcome to Gaia! ::

Swimming was always the best way to let the kids burn off their energy, it was why they had come back here. Aylen had walked down to the edge of the water and let his two children jump from his arms and into the water before they had gone diving into the water. This area was safe from what he'd seen so he wasn't to worried. The blond took a couple steps back before he settled down on the ground and let his eyes sink closed, instead concentrating on all the sounds around him.

Atl held tightly to her brother's back while he swam forward at a rapid pace, she looked from side to side as they went, wondering where they were heading to. It was mostly likely that they were heading to where they had last been digging around through the sand to find treasures that were out there. There were teeth, shells, and all sorts of other fun things to find.

She was right as Rangi came to a halt where they had last paused, "Here." He told here, pointing to the sand before he started to rifle through it, digging around for something fun.

Rangi was successful first, then again he'd gotten to be rather good at digging since they started treasure hunting together. He was a lot faster about kicking up the sand in all directions as well before he turned to look over at Atl, "Hey, hey! I found something!" He said, holding up the conch shell for her to see.

The slug girl's eyes widened and she waved some of the sand out of the water and out of the way before reaching out to take it, "Oh, pretty." She said, looking it over, "We can hear the ocean in these!"

Rangi gave pause, turned, and just starred at her, "Hear the... Atl, we are underwater! We can hear the ocean anyway." He teased his sister.

The girl puffed up a bit, "I-I meant when we are out of the water!" She told him, flushing a little bit at his teasing before motioning for him to continue to dig, "I will hold our treasures."

He gave a nod of agreement and swam to a new area before he started to kick up dirt once more.

Rangi grinned as he dug around, searching for more interesting treasures hidden among the sands. He gave a bit of a grin as his fingertips brushed across something. He wrapped his hand around it, starting to tug when he caught motion in the corner of his eyes. He turned slowly before his eyes got huge, "S-S-Sh..." He stuttered out, lifting a hand.

Atl tilted her head, "Hrm? Shhhh? What? I'm not even being loud!" She told him, giving a pout.

He shook his head before moving, grabbing hold of Atl to pull her behind him, "I-Its... its a s-shark..." He whispered, starting to swim slowly backwards as he kept his squishy sister behind him, moving ever so carefully back toward the shore.

The slug gave a soft whimpering sound, her body starting to shake, "O-Oh... no..."

Rangi starred as the shark moved off to hide out in the seaweed and he narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering what the shark was up to. It must be plotting something dangerous he thought to himself. He looked over his shoulder to where his sister was before giving her a smile and a nod, "It looks like hes gone for the moment." He whispered to her.

She peeked around him, trying to figure out where the shark had gone, looking from side to side in a curious manner. She didn't see him... that was good, right? It meant that he wasn't going to charge out of no where and try to eat them. That was a good thing, she didn't relish the idea of getting eaten by any sharks any time soon, "T-That's good." She whispered, clinging to her brother's arm.
