That s'posed to be another human?"[/i] The name wasn't familiar to Toby, but suddenly the shark that had been dashing through the water towards Ace quickly made a 180 turn and was heading towards the beach. Toby's eyes grew wide and a smile began to form on his face as he realized what was going on. His suspicions were confirmed once Charles the shark launched himself out of the water and onto Brandy. The boy burst out laughing at the sight, what a fortunate relief! He should've known better, but when one see's a shark fin making it's way through the water towards a surfer, it's not really common sense to consider it friendly. No matter, they had a new friend! And Toby was anxious to play. "My turn to drive!" "I didn't even get to use it that long!" Even so he wasn't going to protest any further, he had enough fun whizzing through the water clinging for dear life and gladly scooted backwards to let Ace drive. She seemed to handle the Jet ski better than him anyways, they started to gently move forward. Although, as scary as the thing was at full speed, their current pace wasn't exciting at all. The boy hopped up and down on the Jet ski in anticipation, wanting to hug Charles as soon as possible. "Hehe, hang on tight!" "Wha?" And in a moments notice, the two zoomed through the water crazy fast. Toby obeyed and held on tightly, it was much easier to enjoy the Jet ski when somebody else was piloting the death trap. "THIS IS FUN! THIS IS REALLY FUN! CHARLES HERE I COME!" He shouted at the top of his lungs as the sound of the engine roared like an animal. Water constantly pelted his face and his heart rate was crazy high but it was all in the name of fun. Toby couldn't be any happier right now. He was in his element. Niran popped up in his mind during this moment for some reason and he couldn't help but regret his friend wasn't here to enjoy the beach with them. Toby was in a blur of excitement and it took a moment to realize they were much, much closer to Charles than before. [i]"She's not gonna ram the shark is she?!"[/i] Fortunately Ace made a sharp turn and both their bodies leaned to the side before jolting forward simultaneously as the vehicle of death came to a stop in the water. Ace laughed, then asked if he was okay. Toby threw a big, dumb smile onto his face for the hundredth time today. "Never better" He heard Inadi shout his and Jasper's name, calling for backup. The boy looked around, wondering where Charles was, when suddenly the shark was right beside the two and greeted them with a surprise sneak attack. Toby threw his arms up in delight, giggling as water sprayed all over him. The lovely shark then tipped the Jet ski over and the boy made no effort to stop himself from falling into the warm, beautiful blue water and merely floated along in the ocean letting the waves guide his body. Charles pressed his nose against Toby's chest as he floated underwater. Bubbles flew up from his mouth as the shark pushed Toby up and out from underwater before pulling him and Ace in for a slippery hug. "Yes! Shark hug!" With that Charles released his grip and sped off into the water elsewhere. Toby was not at all yet satisfied. With determination he swam onto shore, ankle deep in water he was just in time to watch Songbird and Brandy get knocked into the water. Riley plotted to overpower Charles and Toby still craved more hugs.[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZQ5aNrwYcM] He couldn't agree more with her idea.[/url] He ran back into the water, towards the shark's last know position. "Bring it on fish face!" his eyes shot back and forth, all over the water in search of their opponent. "On your left Toby! On your left!" Ace shouted, with that Charles shot it's head up from underwater, right beneath Toby, "WHOA!" Charles balanced the boy's butt on his nose before launching him into the air, spewing water from it's mouth directly into the airborne and giggling Toby, almost keeping him afloat. The boy fell back into the water and Charles swam away plotting his next move. "Come back here! I'm not done!" [b]“CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEESSSS!”[/b] Songbird's warcry spurred Toby's excitement, the item hunter was on their side! "IN THE NAME OF NOWHERE!" He added before moving through the water once more in search of Charles. He jumped at the sound of splashing, their enemy was definitely about to make it's next move. "I'm not afraid of you shark! Even if you do weigh like a million pounds!" After a brief moment of suspenseful silence Charles burst out the water and right onto Songbird. "Gotcha!" Toby rushed to the nobodies aid, hopping onto the shark, clinging to his back. "I've got him! Everyone attack!" He shouted before immediately being thrown off. Charles made his way back into the water but not before Toby leaped and grabbed onto his tail. "Oh no you doblbglgbglbg!" His voice was incoherent and bubbly as the shark dragged him through the water. "Blblblblblbl!" Charles leaped out of the water like a dolphin, twisting his body midair launching Toby off his tail and towards the shore. The boy flew through the air, screaming "WEEEEEEE!" just before colliding into Inadi, knocking the two into the sand. After a brief moment of coughing, Toby pulled himself onto his knees, brushing sand off of him. "Haha, sorry!" He stood up and offered his hand to Inadi, willing to pull him up if need be. "This is much harder than I thought. We need a plan!" There was no way they could overpower the shark alone, teamwork was necessary! He recalled moments ago how slippery Charles was when he jumped onto his back. It would take more than one person to hold down something so big and slippery. Toby ran up to the others, "Hey! Hey guys! I have an idea!" Sand still coated some of his body and fell off with each step. Approaching his new friends Toby ruffled his own messy hair as water dripped from almost every strand, he was no doubt soaking wet but he looked to the others with excitement and determination in his eyes, clenching his fists in anticipation as to what they would think of his short and simple plan. "Let's all give Charles, [i]ONE. BIG. GIANT. HUG![/i]"
