Marco....Marco......Marco....FISH OUTTA WATER!

Kosuke was cutting away at the shark from the inside, no movement as the beast was still feeling the effects of his paralysis technique, when there was a sudden and harsh inertial shift as if the creature had suddenly been launched. The jostling caused a variety of intestinal fluid and blood to slosh around with the doctor creating a sickening cocktail that painted the man all over. Though not a stranger to the harsh scents that came as a part of belonging to the world of medicine, Ko was finding his current predicament to be a bit too much for his own composure even. The feeling of being pulled down that was likely the result of the creature being sent into the air started the give way to a slight sense of weightlessness, an indicator that the apex had been reached and what followed would be a crashing descent back down to the water's surface.

Ko could feel the creature fighting against the effects of the paralysis more and more as the hold began to wane. A sense of fear began to creep in that the shark would regain control and dive down in to the water where his fate would be all but sealed. Then the sensations turned to nothingness. He did not know it put the nothingness was the sudden loss of life from the shark as Naki's blade sliced through the head of the creature. The feeling of landing back on the ocean surface followed the nothingness and Ko found the wind knocked out of him somewhat from the drop. As he rebounded from the impact the voices of his companions were heard and then the light from outside as they ripped the shark open to free him from the beast's internal clutches. 

Finally he was released and the feeling and smell of fresh air put the context of how disgusting he currently was on full display. Ko was eager to immediately dive into the water to wash as much of the beast off of him as he could and was surprised to see Kota come in for a hug with distress and concern in the hunter's voice as he admonished Kosuke for scaring him. "I'm truly sorry for worrying you. I instructed you to be careful yet it seems that I was the one that was reckless in the end." Kosuke let out a laugh as Kota joked about the stench and make a comment about him needing to clean up, before promptly taking a dive down into the water like he had been about to do moments before.

Emerging from the water after a moment, Ko would head back to the beach with his lovely companions before Naki would decide to split from the group to relax after the strenuous day. It was an alluring idea, but Kota had offered to make dinner from the catch they had fought so hard for and it seemed like the polite thing to do. After excusing himself, Ko took some time to wash up properly so that he could properly remove the evidence of having been eaten whole earlier in the day. Physically he wasn't any worse for wear and mentally he had considered that getting eaten as he had was a possibility although not a desirable one so all that was left today was get the stink out. After much scrubbing the doctor would meet back up with Kota just as dinner was being served up. The food was wonderful and the company even more so. While Kosuke felt that his time in this place was coming to an end he was excited to have made a new friend and encouraged even more to travel to the land of Wind.
