Warm air flowed over her outstretched wings. Her eyes widened in wonder as the turquoise waters of Merryne stretched out to the horizon before her. She glided in a lazy circle, waiting for Axel to catch up. In the distance, a chain of tiny black islands peeped above the surface of the water to form a crescent. Those islands were the only land as far as the eye could see.

Axel pointed to a spot directly below where a cluster of large metal containers floated on the water. It had the appearance of a cluster of boxes that were lined and stacked together. Jade flicked her tail and tucked her wings to follow Axel as he dove towards it.
When she landed on the platforms that ringed the structure, the ground moved under her feet.

“Pontoons,” Axel explained. “The Traveller base is made of converted containers joined together and floating on pontoons.”

“It’s even uglier up close.”

Axel chuckled. “It was only supposed to be temporary—the Myr didn’t want anything permanent built here—but with all the trouble the Myr rebels have caused during the resort build, the base has only grown.”

Axel adjusted the bag hanging from his chest harness, glancing around. “Let’s go. If we stand here any longer, someone will come asking questions.”

As though summoned by his words, Jade saw a figure out of the corner of her eye and couldn’t help but look over her shoulder.

It was as though something clamped around her neck, cutting her airway mid-breath. She stared.

The figure stared back. Though he was at the other end of the platform, Jade saw his face clearly. Cajun’s stubble of buzzed blonde hair was barely visible, even in the light, and there was a rosy tinge of sunburn over the fair skin on his face. The sleeves of his black uniform were rolled up to the elbow.

Cajun’s eyes widened as he saw her. His trademark smirk was absent, and his glare was full of anger and threat.

Jade’s heart pounded in her chest. She stumbled after Axel, expecting Cajun to call out. But he didn’t.

Jade tugged on Axel’s hand, but when Axel looked around, Cajun had disappeared.

“What?” Axel asked.

“I thought…Cajun…”

Axel frowned. “It’s only natural to think we see what we’re afraid of,” he replied, but they picked up their pace.

It was only when they’d passed into the artificial yellow light of the base that Jade found she could breathe again.
