The Secret

Akasan left the portal.

He walked out into a sandy jungle. It was hot, humid, and there were a plethora of dangerous animals roaming between the trees.

Akasan caught up with the twelve Bloodhounds.

"So? What's this thing you needed to see here?" Anzu asked.

Akasan walked ahead. "It's supposed to be in the ocean."

"Let's go then."

Taichi slumped from behind. "It's... so... hot..."

Koi looked back. "That's right, you aren't used to this wet heat." He walked up to Taichi and punched him in the belly.

Taichi sighed as steam left his mouth. "Much... better..."

Akasan was puzzled. "What just happened?"

Koi caught back up. "I lowered his body temperature. I have total control over water, so I can do things like that."

Akasan rested his hands on his head. "I wish I could do that. Water is my biggest weakness. I can barely use it."

"It's easy, just go with the flow." Koi said cheerily.
