<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #4080FF">"Oh, but we <span style="font-style: italic">will</span> be spending that time togethah! Out looking for suity guy, hiding in bins and behind newspapahs, wicked car chases? Yeah, it'll be awesome!"</span> Alannah grinned as she shook their hands up and down as a substitute for jumping. <span style="color: #4080FF">"And yeah, yeah, I promise I'll be careful."</span> She shrugged. <span style="color: #4080FF">"Ya and Dan both seem to think I can't look out for myself, but hey, it's only because ya care. Besides,"</span> she said, and bumped her nose against his <span style="color: #4080FF">"I like that ya worry. It's cute."</span> In spite of it being kind of adorable, Alannah didn't see the point. He was just a guy in a suit. Maybe. Probably. What could he even do that couldn't be solved by screaming as loud as you could?<br/><br/>Once more, Alannah regretted the non-existence of waterproof books and computers. How was she supposed to find out <span style="font-style: italic">anything</span> while she was stuck down here? She shot an angry look at an innocuous rock and would have kicked it if she could. Sadly, the temporary mutation of her lower body prevented that rather spectacularly, but she comforted herself with the thought that she could always take it with her up top and <span style="font-style: italic">then</span> kick it. For now, she just sighed, grabbed Dimitri's hand, and began leisurely ascending towards the darkness above them, only slightly different from the darkness below.<br/><br/><span style="color: #4080FF">"So, ya don't actually know anything about this guy?"</span> She asked once they broke the surface. They weren't that far away from the city, so the sky was still colored a hazy yellow on their left side, while further out the stars had begun to break through. She briefly wondered how well Dimitri swam, since she hadn't actually seen him do much more than walk and sink elegantly. <span style="color: #4080FF">"But ya still afraid of him?"</span></div>
