"We get along very well," Angel chuckled as she was bumped. "Now let's see if I've learned how to use my fins!" She giggled as she sped forwards, her hands held by her sides to increase her aerodynamics, her hair streaming out behind on the other hand, didn't help her in that respect.

"Reach your arms out and above you, Angel," Sebastian coached. "Like this." His hands were rested one over the other with his arms stretched out above his head. "It's called streamline. Cuts through the water and helps give the water a direction to go. The rest of the movement comes from the stomach and hips."

Lena smirked devilishly. "That's what he said," she coughed.

Barracuda groaned. "Lena! Head out of the migrating currents! You'll scare the poor thing off and then who'll we get to be Bastian's date?" he asked, darting above the group to reach out and tickle Lena.

Angel slowed a bit as she laughed, but soon regained her speed and then some as she positioned her arms like Sebastian had showed her. "I don't think anything she says could scare me away from my Sebastian... We're rather attached to one another..." She was doing pretty good at keeping up, not really pulling away, but she was keeping pace.

Sebastian chuckled. "They don't know the half of it," Soon, the four of them were ducking into a cave. They passed other's from the tribe who were out fishing. They moved to follow when they saw it was Sebastian in the group. Slowing down, they made their way through the cave. On the other side of the tunnel, a massive coral reef resided. People swam back and forth. Some walked upright on the land at the surface and others rested in little cubbies cut into the side of the rock. Topside, rock stretched miles up, protecting the place from prying eyes. Sebastian moved slowly, dread filling him. He had to inform his parents about his sister.

"Bastian? Sebastian! My baby!" a female voice screamed. A shorter, blue skinnned woman slammed into him, spinning them slightly away from the group he had been swimming with. "Where have you been? Where is Serafina? Where is your sister?"

Sebastian couldn't hold back his tears. He hugged his mother tight, shaking his head as his father made his way over. Sebastian was a clone of his father, besides his eyes and the shape of his mouth. His hair was much shorter then his fathers, lacking the cornrow braids the older man sported.

Angel stayed close to Sebastian, her pace slackened as she took in the cave and the structures surrounding them. She stopped as Sebastian was practically tackled by who she assumed was his mother. She spotted his father approaching, but her eyes returned to Sebastian who was crying. He had been through so much and now he had to explain why Serafina wasn't with him. Sebastian, I'm here for you... Your family is here for you... They will understand... She knew he knew those things already, but she was trying to comfort him through their bond.

Sebastian reached out to Angel, bringing her to the hug. Slowly, haltingly at first, Sebastian explained what happened. His parents were upset that he had taken her up without telling them but didn't blame him. They hugged him tight as he ghosted over what had happened between his sisters death and the appearance of Angel. "I lived. I lived and this wonderful woman is responsible for that. She is my mate. She is the one I choose to spend my life with. Her family took me in and together, we took out the man responsible for taking Serafina."

Angel held onto him, one arm around his torso so that she could still face his parents but still be able to hold him. "I am sorry for the loss of your daughter, but I am very lucky to have been able to find and then help your son. I know that I cannot replace your daughter... But I hope that in time you could find a way to accept me as your son's mate even though I am not of the same species..." A blush had found its way onto Angel's face and it was obvious that she was quite nervous in how she held herself, her expression, and her not breaking eye contact.

Sebastian's father bowed to Angel before taking her hand and kissing the back of her hand. "We lost one daughter. I intend to protect you. You are one of us. You have taken on our fins and vowed to protect one of us. We protect our own. Sebastian, have you hunted for her?"

"Not yet. I intended to. I will also be using her customs. Are my things where I left them? I need to grab something." Sebastian said, flicking his tail to swim over to where he kept his stash of belongings.

The blush fell and her eyes grew wide. It was as if a weight had been removed from Angel's mind. She felt light and happy. She'd been accepted. She wasn't sure of the customs, so to be respectful she bowed in return. "Thank you... I don't know if you understand how much this means to me..." Hunted for me? Tell me it's nothing too dangerous... She almost moved to swim after him, but felt that it'd be disrespectful. Perhaps this would give her time to talk with his mother and father and let her explain things in more detail.

Not that dangerous. Way safer then battling Alex. It's a right of passage. Don't worry. Cuda and my dad will be tbere to have my back, should I need it, Sebastian reassured, checking on a couple things. He was glad they were still there. He planned to give them to Angel. Later though. This was the custom of his people. He would preform her custom among her people. He would have asked her on land. But the rings were here.

"Sebastian trusts you. He has every reason not to trust humans, in my opinion, but he loves you, Angel. And you both protect each other. I trust his jugdement. Everything I have observed tells me I was wrong to aim hate at the whole of humanity," his mother said, taking her hand. "The boys will go hunt. I would love to talk with you. And, if you don't mind, braid your hair. Make it easier to swim with."

Alright, good luck! Of course I'll be here to heal you should you need it. Angel smiled at Sebastian's mother and nodded. "I would very much like to talk to you as well, and I would greatly appreciate your help with that. I don't usually do much to it, but I could never braid it. I could braid someone else's, but never my own."

Sebastian smirked, darting back to kiss her deeply. Thank you. I love you. I realize this is kind of sudden and I am leaving you for the moment. But you'll be happy when I get back. The hunt is basically a way of solidifying a mating bond. I believe my mother intends to take you under her fin and be your family for the ceremony. We'll prepare the meal together before eating it. Then we can relax. Sleep, mostly likely. I intend to talk to my father about bringing a group out to meet everyone on land.

The woman smiled, watching the pair. "Seeing you two...I thought I would never see that...I thought I lost them both," she murmured, hugging her husband. Cuda had grabbed some spears while Lena reappeared, her arms full of trinkets, beads, pearls and all sorts of other goodies.

Angel giggled softly as Sebastian kissed her. I love you too! I would appreciate someone teaching me the rituals and customs of your people... She smiled over at his mother. "I never thought that I would find someone that I care about so deeply that wasn't dead or dying..." She was referring to her grandparents who she knew were smiling down at her. She could feel it.

Sebastian smirked, kissing her nose. Careful what you wish for. I do believe my mother and Lena are taking it upon themselves to teach you. They are probably going to try to dress you up. We aren't big into clothes but shiny things? When in the safety of the reef? Oh, we indulge. And I think Lena just brought over some of her favorites to dress you in.

"Do those living on land truly live such short lives? Ours are strengthened and enhanced do to the sea. But are all of your loved ones truly dying?" Sebastian's mother asked, concerned. "Perhaps we should get her tribe down here quickly! If they can adapt as you are, then we can save them."

Angel gently shoved Sebastian as she was trying to converse with his mother. I don't think I would mind it! She shook her head. "I misspoke... Before I met and made the family I have now, the only family I had were my grandparents who have long since died. Technically we're all dying, just it takes about a hundred years or so depending on how well we take care of ourselves and what the greater plans are for us."

"Oh, I like you, Angel. I like you very much. No one can replace my Serafina. I know that is not your plan. I just want you to know I don't expect you to be her either. We need to grieve for her...and we will. But right now, Sebastian has been returned. And with him, you. We will celebrate the good and give thanks for it before completing the steps to honor and morn my baby girl. I am sorry for your loss, Angel. Rest easy knowing they are most likely looking down with pride and happiness over you." Lily, Sebastian's mother, unfolded Angel in a hug, shooing the boys off to go,do tbeir thing.

Sebastian waved, giving the girls a smile.

Angel smiled as she was hugged, and hugged Lily back. "I know that they are smiling down at me... I can feel it..." When they finally broke the embrace her smile had faded. "If I'm allowed, I would like to grieve with you for your daughter. From what Sebastian has told me about her..." She hoped her point had gotten across, but she didn't know quite how to finish that sentence.

"Of course you may. You helped avenge her. I won't deny someone who wants to pay respects to those who have fallen. She would have loved you...humans and their culture fascinated her. She often wished to travel the world. Not the seas, but the land. Had she been born centuries ago, she would have gotten that wish..." she said sadly, repositioning herself so she could braid Angel's hair.

Lena settled in beside the pair, placing her collection of trinkets between them. "I hope you don't mind me helping with this. I figure if the guys are going on the hunt, you'll need some woman to help get you ready. While we are equal, species often preen for each other. Ours is no different. He'll probably come back all fussed up too."

Angel kept herself still so her hair didn't float all over the place while Lily braided it. "She could have traveled the world in this day and age... It might even be easier now than in the past, what with all of the worry about witches and demons back then." She moved her eyes to look at the set of trinkets and she gasped softly. "They're all so pretty! Of course I don't mind... Anything I can learn about your culture I would love to learn and if I can, take part in." She wondered what Lena meant by fussed up in terms of Sebastian. She could picture a tooth necklace and other things along the lines of trophies and that sort of thing.

"Maybe...Sebastian seems to be doing just fine with you protecting him. Perhaps that is what he is doing, seeing the world for her. A long, long time ago, we could walk above on land safely. When witches, demons, humans and just about any other creature out there lived peacefully. Sure, there was skirmishes here and there but no one race was singled out to be killed or used. It was a very, very long time ago," Lily said, working out Angel's hair so if any knots had formed while swimming, she could get them out. "A tighter braid works best. But I don't want to hurt you. I'll start braiding and tell me if it is too tight or too loose, okay? Oh! Lena, you should try that piece in her hair when I finish!" Lily was pointing to a small net of pearls connected with a dark metal wiring. "Coil the braid into a bun and cover it with this? That would look gorgeous. Especially with these darker colored pearls," Lena agreed. "What do you think, Angel? I'd be happy to show you around and give guidance. With Sebastian's darker coloring, they'll probably use crushed mother of pearl to mark his skin and scales. That balance of dark and light coloring. You've got the light coloring with your pale skin and golden hair. It is so, so pretty," Lena sighed, happily as she reached up as if to touch Angel's hair. Her coloring respembled a lionfish with strong, sturdy spikes along her back and tail.
