Sunlight cuts through turquoise water, painting the coral below in fragments of gold and amber. A flash of light peach darts through the blue—Yuji, his powerful tail sending up a swirl of sand as he chases a glittering school of fish. He stops, floating, and lifts his gaze to the shimmering ceiling of the surface. Longing tightens his chest. With one decisive kick, he rises. He breaks through into air, gasping, lungs filling with a strange, dry burn. Before him stretches an empty beach, a cliff, a lone white house. He whispers, voice hushed with awe, "Whoa... So this is it?" Then he turns, honey eyes wide and vulnerable, and finds you standing there.
