Mel stood on the golden sands looking out at the blue water.She might go surfing after but that wasn't the purpose she was here for.She knew this part of the beach well.After all the sand is a great drawing tool.She pulled harshly on the silver chain round her neck and took one last look at the picture in the locket.It was her around 7 on a man with thick black hair and a blue shirts back.She took the locket and looked round making sure nobody was there to say she was crazy and threw the locket into the ocean.She knew he wasn't coming back hell she didn't even know he was alive.This was closure.

Jack had always liked the beach, today was no exception. The waves were rolling in softly and their crashing provided a soothing rhythm for the occasion. His shoes were being carried in one of his hands and he was enjoying the feeling of warm stand on his feet. His Mp3 was on and playing a few of the more rock-ish tunes that occupied a good 2/3 of the storage space.
He turned it off as he saw a girl throw a locket into the ocean. He took a quick look at her face, he didn't really recognize her, but that was no reason not to lend a hand.
He removed his headphones, "Hey," He started. "Are you alright?"

The voice was unkown to her peirceing the quite of the beach. She turned around to see who had spoken. When she spotted him she mentally slapped herself.'Great yet another person who is gonna think I'm a freak.Should have come here later.' She turned to face "I'm fine thanks,just had to get rid off something.Something important" her voice grew quiet as she turned to look at the ocean and the turned back "Sorry you must think I'm a total freak throwing things into the sea.I'm Mel by the way" she added.

Jack took her hand and shook it. "I've seen weirder, throwing things into the ocean isn't all that bad comparatively." He gave a smile. "My name's Jack." The handshake ended and he looked at where he had seen something disappear into the water. "Though if that was something important, why throw it away?"

She laughed at his first comment."Nice to meet you Jack" His question left her thinking "I guess I just wanted to forget.Have you ever had a wish that no matter what you want to come true?Something you'll do anything for" She glanced over at him trying to predict what his reaction would be.

Jack gave a nod, "Yeah lots of times. For the war to be over, for a normal life." His smile turned sad, "For my mom to walk into the house one day alive." There was a second more of sadness before a visible effort put the smile back on his face.
"So since I spilled my guts, would you mind spilling yours?"

"Im sorry about your mum Jack I didn't mean to upest you." she was silent for a second "Ok well when I was 7 my dad left me and my mum and of course I didn't know what was going on.My mum is just a control freak always content with telling people how fabulous life is when it's not.My dad got me my crystal beast deck for my 7th birthday and I get a card every year but a part from that nothing.oh and I had to break into my own house to get my stuff because my mum locked me out" she glanced over at Jack "sorry I must be really boring you.Im just some random stranger who you now know almost everything about"

"It's okay, I'm not upset." He said in an attempt to ease her concern. "It was a long time ago anyway."
He gave a sincere smile, not the typical joking grin that so often adorned his face. "Then that doesn't really make us strangers, does it?" It was more of a statement than a question, but that didn't mean he didn't want an answer.

Jack smiled. "Yup." It was at this point that he got a good look at her clan bracelet, it was green like his own. "You're in Ookami?" He asked, looking back up at her eyes. "I've never really seen you around before."

"Nah don't really go round there.But I guess I'm gonna have to go now.Somewhere to go.It like a family in some sense." She smiled "People who look out for ya" She kicked the sand with her shoe "I guess I'm gonna be better known now" she laughed lightly

"Yeah," He grinned. "One great, big, happy family." He rolled his eyes, but it was easy to tell that the Ookami Barracks held a special place in his heart. Or intestine, it was difficult to tell when most of the people there couldn't really cook.

"hmm so your gonna be seeing a lot more of me!" she laughed. And stared up at the sky and closed her eyes.She had this horrible feeling in her gut.
Regret
She knew her throwing wasn't that good so it couldn't be far. "Here hold on to this" she said throwing her over shirt over at Jack.She had already taken her shoes off, so throwing her bag and goggles onto the floor.The bags contents spewed onto the floor, just a few copies of Death note and make up, she sprinted towards the blue waters and dived in.The water was cold but it reflected the cold temperature she always carried round with her.

Jack blinked as the shirt was tossed at him, covering his head. He pulled it off in time to see Mel dive into the cold ocean. He was tempted to run after her, but this seemed to be something personal that shouldn't be interfered in.
Besides that, he was pretty sure that she was retrieving whatever she had thrown into the waves. He wouldn't be much help there.

She dove down looking for the small trinket 'Come on it has to be here' she said pulling up for air. Her black hair clinging to her face and her eyes stinging as she went under again. Opening her eyes the small silver trinket came into sight. Yes!. She swam back up the the surface and held the locket up above her head "I got it!" she yelled to Jack on the shore as she swam back.
