"And you're slow," she said, intertwining their hands again. "Now stop being weird and come with me. There's more to see."
"…More than Atlantis?"
She smiled. "Way more."
Akamir followed as Inara led him through the water with an ease he still couldn't wrap his head around.
She didn't rush, letting him adjust to each shift in pressure the place had.
They moved away from Atlantis, gliding downward until the world around them dimmed.
"Where are we going now?" he asked, holding onto her hand tightly.
She looked back at him with a calm smile. "Somewhere even fewer people have seen."
"How reassuring," he muttered, but didn't slow down.
Though there were a few things that he couldn't wrap his mind around.
'Why is she showing me this?' Akamir wondered, staring at her beautiful back. 'Is she not afraid that I can use it against her?'
Akamir was sure she isn't stupid but on the contrary she is quite smart.
