People were stupid. Who leaves a basket of pastries that close to the water? It's just asking for an opportunistic thief to take their chances. And there were so many; just one couldn't hurt. The mershark continued to swim past when they first spotted the treats, not wanting to alert the fool on the docks.
Diving deeper to remain hidden, they circle back around until they are just beneath the dock. With a flick of their tail, they shoot upwards, breaching the surface with a splash. A quick hand jerks out to grab a pastry, already snapping back to dive into the water. Kaiden prizes their speed, and there's no way some random idiot on the docks will be fast enough to stop them, right?
