Tsunami was swimming faster than anyone Inferno had ever seen in her life. She didn't know how Hurricane and Tetra were managing to keep pace with the orca mer. Tsunami had revealed to them that she had the pearl with her. It was hidden in one of the tattoos, the strange triangular symobl with a line through it, it was hidden in the dot on the center. Tsunami had been the guardian of the pearl for the last few years, and no one could remove it from her against her will. 

  The mer were all currently swimming toward a small colony of mer known as "The Band" it was there that Hurricane and Tsunami were to be married. And to be made fin-fast. Tsunami had a brother who was a member of the band, and he held a high rank. They would deliver the information about Lady Anemone, and then perhaps be able to live out their days in peace with the band. The Band lived in a hidden cavern, a place called StormFast. It was beautiful, at least that's what Tsunami said. She said that the cavern could only be found by those who already knew where it was, and that it was always illuminated by sunlight streaming down from the holes in the ceiling. 

  Inferno was pondering about whether or not she should tell Hurricane and Tsunami that she was thei daughter. It could help her on her quest, or it could do serious damage to the time stream, and may cause Inferno to have never been born. 

 Her battle axe seemed to be getting heavier every league they swam, but Inferno wasn't going to start complaining. Tsunami had been tortured and poisoned and was swimming strongly, if Tsunami could do it, so could Inferno.
