The sun had dipped under the horizon long enough for the sands to have lost their residual warmth. They were cold under the touch of Skyler's fingers as she took a swig of her beer, eyes fixed on the dark expanse before her.

Remnants of half-hearted revelry clung to her: a smear of glitter on her cheek, a neon bracelet around her wrist, a wild glint in her eyes that chased after a taste of reckless abandon.

Wherever she'd gone tonight, it'd failed to find her. Practised motions had felt hollow, inadequate, lacking in meaning. She'd found herself pulled out of club by some unexplainable itch, sweat dripping down the line of her spine. Drawn by another kind of drumbeat, she'd ended up at the beach. Of course.

How is it that sailors were lured to sail the ocean time and time again? What sort of insane fascination took hold of them, she thought, that they'd lay down their lives to its endless hunger?

"Cheers, bud," she says to the rising tide, raising her can of beer. Beyond the shallows, a red glow briefly makes its way to the surface.

Skyler knows it all too well. She, too, is hungry.

This was becoming a habit.

Waves lap gently at her bare feet, bereft of the churning riptides that the captain knows await should one dare to venture deeper. They're echoed within the orb resting over her chest, battering its surface with primordial fury.

The ocean had ensnared her heart in its infancy, sunk its hooks in deep and dragged it to the depths. The primordial thrum that battered at her chest now felt, in some ways, entirely too familiar. Welcoming, even.

Her eyes follow the Chinchou that surfaces briefly in the shallows before dipping back under, its light melting into the darkness beyond.

Another beer is cracked open. Skyler barely feels its fizzling on her tongue as she takes a long swig, offhandedly wiping her mouth with the back of her hand. She ought to be home by now, she thinks.

But home loses its allure when it means cold pillows and eyes staring blankly up at the chipped ceiling. Too busy being tangled up in yesterday's horrors.

There's something else that calls to her now.

The question is, will she answer?

She's been given a blessing, and it churns through her veins like the tide. Only later would she realize her folly in believing it without consequence. In believing that the ocean wouldn't swallow her whole in its tempest and spat her out like a shipwrecked vessel.

Better than anyone else, the ship captain should've known that you do not master the ocean. You learn to read its moods and whims, you learn to bend to its fury and survive, you adapt to whatever it throws at you. And you love it. Deeply. Inexplicably. And pray it won't be the death of you.

Skyler doesn't pray, she has never felt a need for either gods or saints. Even as the leviathan sings in her head of abyssal depths and lightless fathoms - a primal drumbeat that slithers down her spine in a shiver. Begging her to join in.

The remaining beers are left behind on the cold sands along with most of her clothes. The captain wades into the shallows and while seafoam gathers along her exposed skin, she bears it no mind.

Her head tilts, moonlight gathering in the hollow of her throat.

Beyond the crashing waves, the ocean alights with infernal hues.

Watching. Waiting.
