Silver Spots down to the Bay

She giggled easily when she realized she made him drop his fish and swam tightly in a circle away from him. She aligns her ears to him as she comes about to face him and nods her head at his suggestion.

She wanted to try something she noticed just before he sent her flying into the waves earlier. This time she took care to select her waiting spot after shaking some of the water off.

Daintily tip-toeing toward a patch of sand that gave way to a short rock outcropping that leaned over the water she stops and looks over the edge at the fish. The bright full moon is reflected in the water and her white belly reflects the ambient brightness back, lessening her shadow over the fish and not alerting them to the fisher above them.

She glanced at Jiro, wondering if he was catching on. Maybe if he stood over her she could counteract his shadow and he could see that the fish wouldn't dart away as much. A silvery flash caught her eye again and she brought her golden gaze back to the water.

Asahi took a moment to watch the fish below her. She zeroed in on one close to the surface and she leaped with her mouth open to catch it right as she hit the water! Her jaws clasped the writhing medium sized yellowbelly fish, nearly shearing it in half as she focused on coming back to the surface. She dragged her limp catch back up the shore with a happy huff at her brother, her tail streaming water as she lifted herself out of it and wagging back and forth in pride.

She ripped into one of the gills and smiled with her mouth full at Jiro. Then pushed the fish with her nose to happily share with him.
