Chapter 108 - Beach Time!

"After the whole incident with Fukui we finally began to move towards Serene's house. Before we could even arrive at her house we found her walking around the town. Somehow Serene convinced us to hangout at the beach." I said, writing everything I said down in a journal.

I tucked journal away in my pocket and looked at the ocean. With summer coming in the beaches were a lot more crowded than usual. I didn't mind it though, it made this place seem more alive.

"Why are you just standing there with a blank expression? Aren't you going to swim in the ocean? Oh wait, can you not swim?" Alice asked, giving me a smug look.

I became red from embarrassment, "I can swim just fine!"

Alice continued giving me a smug smile as she swam away. I sat down underneath our umbrella and let out a deep sigh. It's not that I couldn't swim, I just sucked at it.

"What's up Serene?" I asked, turning around.

She seemed caught off guard by the fact that I knew where she was. Thanks to a little training I learned how to sense people's presence. I can thank Morgan for that.

"How did you even? No, I don't want to know. I'm just here to put you in the water." Serene said.

Serene reached out her hand and aimed it at me. I had a bad feeling about what was about to happen next. I suddenly began to levitate off the ground and flew there for a moment. Serene used her other hand to wave me goodbye as she used the other to send me flying into the ocean.

With a large splash I hit the water. The water was warm and would have made me feel relaxed if it weren't for the fact that I was struggling to even stay above water. I suddenly realized something. It wasn't even that hard to stay afloat.

"Huh, I expected this to be harder." I said, looking down at the water.

I looked back at the shore and saw Serene and Alice pointing at me. They looked as if they were panicking. Maybe they weren't looking at me though. A sudden shadow appeared behind me causing me to turn around and look at whatever was making it.

"Is that a giant crab?" I said, not sure wether to be terrified or disappointed at it. Either way, I began to swim away from it as fast as possible.

"Serene! Use your goddamn telekinesis powers to pull me out of the water!" I yelled.

Serene raised an arm so start her telekinesis and picked me up out of the water. She suddenly threw me towards them at a fast speed. Both of them moved out of the way before I could crash into the sand.
