It was like a game of tug-of-war between the two. Taking one edge on the other. The way that she was formidable even in water combat like this was fun. It was obvious on the why she was the rank she was, especially during the trip into the city when he witnessed her in combat.
Beatrix in a circumstance where she was his enemy would be terrifying. Nyx also liked it.
While he was standing victorious, it was short lived when he felt a pair of hands on his calves. Of course she wasn't going to let him have the win that easily. Well, it was a thought in his head while he was being pulled underwater. A breath taken he was under with her, and just being under with Beatrix was something else. He was half hanging on her frame, half treading under the water near her. Oddly enough, despite the need for breathing- he was okay with this moment lasting a while. Being underwater with the woman, he found himself at peace.
