"At the surface," Hadama rumbled in answer, emerald eyes narrowing as he spotted the pack cutting through the crystal blue waters ahead. "So their prey can hear them." He paused, considering Melita's anklet and her ability to dance across the surface of the water with her weapons of choice.
"But I can come up from beneath and chase them back up towards you," he suggested, a calm, quiet sort of mayhem gleaming mischievously in his gaze. "If they try to escape."
He waited only long enough for her response before diving and swimming with his belly to the sea floor, a gold-shot shadow against the sand. Trusting Melita's speed and enthusiasm for the task at hand, he paused beneath the pack to make sure she was in position before swimming upwards and taking aim with his trident, letting loose a starlit blast just as the laziest shark swimming idly beneath its brothers realized he was there.
The ones letting out the loudest cries above had set their beady black eyes on Melita and had already begun to cruise towards her, missing the violence below in their own eagerness to hunt.
