Oceans without Shores

Naze knew that he wasn't what society expected of him. They wouldn't take him back, no matter how short they were of workers. Even when it meant to roam space for what could be eternity, he made his decision and he never looked back. Especially not once they heard the story of him being the leader of the Hammerhead crew and allying with Tekkadan.

Amida knew she had to be strong; all her life she had no other choice. She knew with certainty being a part of the Turbines meant an escape from horrid fates for the girls she took in. Memories were no consolation, even the good ones. It was better than seeing the roses wilt and water turn to blood, and it was better than looking through colored glass.

Being in this moment, their hands intertwining, Naze was happy where he was, with Amida, with her. Passing a secret smile between them, Amida drew herself deeper in his arms, she never looked back.
