[u][h3]Kuhaku Shiro - Lake[/h3][/u]

      Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Shiro was quickly growing frustrated with the results of the search thus far. How much time had already passed by this point? Truthfully, not much. He was just terribly impatient and had unrealistic desires. He had erroneously thought that it would've been a simple dip in the lake and he would find what he was looking for just like that. Aggravated with the possible reality that it wouldn't be an easy few minute search, Shiro was not happy. With swim goggles to help him see clearly underwater, a light, and his enhanced Faunus vision he certainly had an edge in locating Sapphire's daggers. All of that however, meant nothing if they weren't actually within the lake's waters. Pausing his swim to take a quick break, he noticed some sort of machine flying just above the waters and wondered if Beacon had launched some drones to drag him out. A glance over the shoulder and he confirmed that he was still being followed. Evidently, Shiro was a faster and stronger swimmer than whoever it was that was trying to impede his dagger retrieval mission. Frowning, he took a raspy inhale on Gren's prototype rebreather and forcefully exhaled to create a cascade of air bubbles that obscured his vision. Digging into his pockets, he pulled out his Scroll that was tightly sealed in its plastic bag and decided to shoot a quick message to Gren. Gren would have the complete picture of what was going on and he could calmly use his diplomatic skills to call off whatever team had dove in after him.

"Oi! Gren! That's not a search and rescue team coming after me, is it? If it is, tell them to bug off! I kinda didn't want this to become some big blown up thing, y'know? Oh, and also? Your rebreather works fine, but you might want to work on the fit and seal some more. Thanks a bunch, pal!"[/quote]

Looking up, Shiro pocketed his plastic-wrapped Scroll and trembled briefly. The cool temperature of the waters still took some getting used to. His body radiated large amounts of heat so it wasn't that bad, but it was still a little uncomfortable. He preferred swimming through warmer waters. Placing his hands on his hips, he turned his head left and right. Itching at his chin, he wondered how he should proceed. Tilting his head, his eyes picked up something a little further off. Curious, he chose to investigate. It wouldn't hurt at all to deviate from his planned swim pattern. Break time over, Shiro resumed his glide through the lake. His flashlight trained on something interesting.
