Watching Harper walk away made Inadi a little disappointed but in the end he supposed it was for the best. The boy needed his space and it would be a bad idea to force any further conversation. Everyone needed to heal in their own way, he knew that much. He just hoped that the boy wouldn't be too down on himself for any longer than he needed to be. Last thing the group needed was for someone to fall into some kind of a depression. Especially one of the few leaders the rest of them could look to during times of stress and uncertainty.

Song also responded to his question with what seemed to be a little more uncertainty than he had originally hoped. Inadi was praying that he could just get all his questions answered here and not have to do the whole fetch job of going back and forth between people to get the full story. But naturally nothing ever comes that easy nor that harmless. There's always a middle man, and you've either got to go to him or cut him out. Or in this case her.

A voice further down the hall caught Inadi's ear and the voice was recognized almost immediately. It was Lesley coming over to great them, and it seemed that he was out enjoying the sun somehow. He was in a pair of swim trunks which only made Inadi confused. What was he doing in that? Was there a beach near the castle that he didn't know about? And why did it suddenly smell of salt water? Noticing Jasper's staring at Lesley's chest made Inadi do the same, wondering what the girl was potentially staring at. Was there some kind of scar or maybe a bug on him? 

Inadi didn't see anything so he shrugged the thought off as he continued along to find a huge beach room. The young man was shocked to see an entire beach standing before him and before he could even say something to marvel at the impressive sight he was thrown into yet another changing room as he let out a bit of a sigh. Here he had spent all that time finding a good suit jacket and now he was being forced to change out. As he took his shoes off he noticed that he already had some sand stuffed into them. Rolling his eyes he continued to undress and put on some dark orange trunks that he liked in the room. They went a little higher than the knee, but it was a good fit none the less. 

Looking down at his calves he noticed that they were extremely pale in comparison to his arm, which he now noticed was slightly darker than the rest of his body. Confused, he pressed his forearms together to get an idea as to what was going on and realized his mistake. He had walked practically the entire journey in Sol without one of his sleeves for the most part. Now he was paying the price with an uneven tan. Frustrated, he growled in his throat and walked outside with a white t-shirt he had also found in the changing room so that he could hide what he could of the disgraceful shades in pigment he had going all over his upper body.

Spreading out a towel he carried out, he laid himself down and noticed a nearby umbrella. Scooting slightly so that the umbrella would keep the sun from his eyes he looked up and saw Jasper enjoying the view of the beach. Strange he didn't see her as he approached before, but he waved it off as a symptom of his frustration. And then there was the Toby fellow that had joined them after the fight. Strange. Normally Inadi wasn't nearly this unaware of his surroundings. Then again today wasn't the most agreeable afternoon he had ever experienced, so again he blamed it on the frustration.

As he began feeling the sun grace his skin and the heat pick up around him, the sudden screaming of Toby and Jasper began filling his ears. Looking out to the sea he noticed a gray fin that the two seemed to be warning the ones in the water about. Inadi was hoping he would just be able to have some relaxation time but clearly this was not his day. He quickly pushed off the sand, threw his glasses onto the towel behind him and began running into the water and tried his best to fight against the waves. But some particularly hard ones hit him in the chest as they came crashing to the beach shore that it threw the boy back a few steps. Flipping in the water a bit made him wash up back on the sand as he choked against the water forcing itself down his throat. He wasn't as strong as he was when he first started this whole adventuring thing, as he had lost some weight with all the running around and nearly dying stuff.

Toby went to a Jet ski and began gunning it towards the others in the water as Inadi tried collecting his breath. Looking back at the guides behind him, he noticed that Brandy didn't seem all that worried about it. As he began thinking of something to yell at the guide for his lack of concern, a sudden grey fin appeared in his peripheral and Inadi jumped in fear as a wave crashed down on him and the girl still standing next to him near the umbrella. It was then that Brandy explained that the shark was harmless and probably just wanted to play. The boy looked back and forth between the guide and the shark and realized.....the guide was probably telling the truth. The shark was just sitting there it seemed while making a few quick looks at them all.

Looking up at Jasper, who was just about as wet as he was, Inadi let out a sigh as he stood back up. “Seems to me like this whole day is just trying to test how far my patience and blood pressure can go,” he half joked as he looked back at Brandy going after Song and trying to get him into the water. Raising an eyebrow he began laughing at the two. “Hey guys, I thought you were supposed to be setting examples for us, being guides and all.” Inadi said as his laughter died into a chuckle. 

It was then that the shark, now known as Charles, decided to give Inadi a nice little present. With a quick slap of his fin, a small splash hit the boy right in the face. Wiping the water out of his eye, the burning sensation from the salt water all but hidden due to his silence, he looked at the big aquatic mammal with a smirk on his face. “Alright big guy, you wanna play? Let's play then!” Inadi yelled as he began running after the shark in the water, this time fighting off the waves with a new found energy and vigor. Diving at the shark, Charles made a sudden quick jolt to another part of the shallow area near the shore. Getting himself out of the water and locating the shark again Inadi pointed at the creature while blowing water off his face as it dripped down the bridge of his nose and upper lip. “I'm gonna turn you into a nice bowl a soup for that! Jasper! Toby! Help me get this guy! This 'fish' thinks he can get away with splashing us and giving us all a heart attack!” Inadi joked as he continued chasing after the shark. 

Charles continued to dart back and forth in the shallow end, even a few times tripping Inadi in the water by slapping him with his tail from behind. Each time Inadi got up faster and went right back to chasing after the thing with a grin on his face. If this was the relaxation he was praying for, he was more than happy to get it this way. All the concerns and worries disappeared from his mind and all he cared about now was catching this one creature who seemed to think splashing him in the face was the funniest thing in the world.
