Ocean

Author's Note: Written in response to Prompt 28 on the Mayblade 2022 challenge.

Max closed his eyes and listened to the tide. He breathed deeply with every caress of wave on shore. In...and out...in...and out...

He could hear children laughing in the distance; the sound brought a smile to his lips, but he still kept his eyes closed. He imagined what it would be like to swim in the water's depths, what he might encounter there...

Draciel was there too. She was always beside him, protecting him from harm and sometimes letting him ride on her back. The thought made his smile grow wider.

Perhaps he should have known his bit-beast would be a water spirit. He poured his heart into beyblading...but the ocean spoke to his soul.

Hope you enjoyed it!
