Familiarity

Sweetie Belle stood up, she was looking herself over. Both she and Button were in the cabin getting prepared to leave. Her breasts were bound in bandages as was her hands. "What do you think? Front cloth or just bandages?" She moved the only top section that remained up her suit up and down.

Button, who had his hands wrapped with bandages and one around his head like a bandana, cocked his head. "I'd say go without. Last thing we need is for something that loose to get caught if we need to make a quick escaped."

She nodded. "Good point." She took a part of scissors found in the first aid box and began to cut along her suit, leaving mostly just pants and a small top portion above them. They were trying to get prepped, unsure what lay ahead of them but they knew that they were ready. Button stood up, looking over himself. He was bare chested, just had on pants with a few bandages covering some of the holes that remained. He tightened the ones around his hands before coming over and helping to secure the ones around Sweetie's breasts.

At this point, it was less about nudity and more about if they had to climb again. They were trying to prepare for anything with what little they had. Once everything was secure, the two stood and began making their way out of the cabin. They had been relaxing for several days but now it was time to start moving forward again.

They confidently walked down the small trail, past the spring, down past a few trees before coming to a sliding door. They both took a deep breath as the door swung upwards, them walking on into a small corridor. The door shut behind them, their steps echoing across the smooth surface. There bare feet slapping quietly as their eyes trained ahead.

They soon came to another door that slide open and they found themselves in a small room with what looked like a large bell being hung over a large round pool of water. The room was painted to look like the inside of a large wooden structure. Small windows could be seen that appeared to be round with steal coverings over the sides.

A loud speaker came on and Selene's voice could be heard. "Good, you two look ready for anything. I like that. This room will be testing a bunch of things at once, also reviewing a few things too just for that lovely extra data. Your mission is to ride the diving bell down into the depths and retrieve six special disks from a small sunken boat below. Inside the bell, you will find underwater breathing pills and a few other tools to help you in your search. Be warned though, you aren't the only ones that may dwell beneath the waves." The sound of hands clapping together could be heard. "Sorry, love this room. Good luck you too."

Sweetie Belle crossed her arms. "She seems excited."

Button leaned under the diving bell, seeing there was benches going all the way around inside it and a lone box built into the side opposite of him just above the bench. "We are coming up on the end. I am sure I would be too her position."

He began to carefully turn and climb inside, sitting on the bench and watching as Sweetie did the same, sitting right next to him. There were some bars along the benches to hold onto which they did as the heard the sound of machinery moving as alarms went off. Selene's voice cracked from outside. "We are green, Dive, Dive, Dive!"

The bell dropped and the two felt their bodies lift for a second before crashing down. The feeling of slight falling could be felt as the bell descended. They looked down, unable to see much at all. They turned, examining the box sitting next to Button.

The stallion opened it, finding a spear that could extend outwards or retract with a push of a button, two strange looking pills and a leather bag with a strap. There was a small note in there as well. Button pulled it out and read it out loud.

"Every journey is different but if you are reading this, then I can only assume you have come a long way. Make sure to take those pills only once you reach the bottom, they only last an hour. There is so much I wish I could tell you. So much I want to pass along. Find your way to the end, prepare your minds and do you best is all I can tell you. Oh and that there is one disk in the captains seat and another is tucked under a rock right next to where the diving bell stops at. Ok, that is all I can do for now. S."

Sweetie leaned back. "They seemed to know a lot. Do ever wonder if Selene is leaving these notes or if it is someone else trying to help us?"

"Quite frankly, I think it could go either way. Selene seems like a neutral party from the vibe I got from her. Whoever this other is, they seem to be well ahead of us every time, no matter what room has been shifted to meet us. I can't say but I can at least give to them my thanks."

"Your welcome." Sweetie said before blinking in confusion. "I don't know why I said that."

"Feeling a bit scatter brained today?" Button asked with a grin.

Sweetie lightly shoved him. "No, just a weird slip of the tongue. Lets figure out how these pills work." She lifted one up and examined it, seeing that it was glowing slightly. "Looks magical in nature."

"Hang on, I see a diagram below." He sat up and looked in, seeing a picture of a stick figure. Looked like they were taking it then jumping into water before arrows seemed to imply inhaling then exhaling. There was a another drawing below that showing the figure getting angry? He couldn't make heads or tails of it. But it showed them swimming back to the diving bell. Maybe there was some kind of magical clue when there time was running out?

"Ok, take these, dive in, then slowly start to try and breath... This is going to feel weird." He glanced back down. "Not sure what the other picture is about though."

He picked one up. Sweetie reached in. "Hang on, I see they gave us a water bottle." She passed it to him then held up her own pill.

"Down the hatch we go." He said before putting it in his mouth, taking a sip of the water bottle and gulping. Sweetie did the same. The two waited for a second before taking a deep breath and sliding into the water.

The water was thankfully very warm and the two felt the water go past their heads as they sank down a ways. They hovered for a second, staring at one another. They waited a few seconds, wondering what would happen. Button felt a weird numbing sensation around his neck. It caused him to inhale in surprise. To his even greater shock, he sucked it water but didn't swallow it, it seemed to go somewhere else. Sweetie opened her mouth to say something but all that came out was bubbles. She put a hand around her throat before pointing at his neck.

He felt this neck with his fingers and would have jumped in shock had he not been floating there. He could feel small slits around his neck. He inhaled again, feeling the water come in, then exhaled just like he would normally. He blinked and watched his lover do the same. Once they got the hang of the feeling, they both gave a thumbs up.

Button quickly swam back up and shot his hand out, grasping the bag and feeling his fingers snag the extendable spear as well. He pulled on both and sank back down a bit. He placed the bag over his shoulder before handing the spear to Sweetie who seemed to excitedly swing it around a bit, extending it out with a push of the button, swinging it out again before pushing it back into a shorter position.

She gave a small nod, finding there was a strap that extended around it and placed it over her shoulder. She and Button then swam down, stopping at a nearby rock. Button lifted it up and sure enough, there was a small disk inside. It looked kind of like of CD only bigger and felt slightly thicker. He placed it in the back before the two took a second to really look around.

They were in a large room, the walls painted to look like an ocean floor. Some had coral painted on them with the rest being painted in with dark blue. One of the walls was just a dark blue with small rocks painted along the bottom. The room itself was lit by several bright lights above. Inside the big room was a lone old fishing boat, some large rocks that seemed to be shaped to look like the ones you would maybe see in a large fish tank, a few old looking ruins of some kind and a few long strands of seaweed here and there. The bottom was covered in white sand and there appeared to be a few bubbles floating upwards from time to time.

Sweetie Belle pointed to the ship and Button nodded, following her over to it. It had what appeared to be a captains area at the top, a cabin below that and another below that going by the windows near the stern.

Button went towards the captains area first, easily pulling open the door and finding it was mostly made up of a captains chair, steering will, center console of instruments and a shelf with some old books on it. He swam over to the chair, finding a disk poking out of the cushion. He snagged it while Sweetie examined the book shelf. The labels were super faded but she could still make out a book titled urban legends. She opened it, finding a disk inside on a page mentioning some kind of tentacle creature that lives beneath the sand. She glanced it over for a second before shrugging her shoulders. No use to her right now and they were sort of on a time limit. Though it had only been about ten minutes tops.

Her eyes sideway glanced at Button as she got a chaotic idea. She swam over to him and past him the disk. He grabbed it and just as he put it away and locked the bag back, she grinned, swam behind him, gripped his pants and pulled them down to his ankles.

Button swam upwards slightly in surprise before glancing down as Sweetie who appeared to be laughing with her mouth covered by her hands.

Her eyes were closed though, two can play at this game. With a quick kick off the top of the ceiling, he felt his pants go free as he shot down behind her, gripped her pants and did the same. She went ridged for a second, turning around just in time for his lips to be planted on hers. She lost focus for a second as he began to slowly drift her over to the wall, her pants drifting off her feet.

He held her arms up, kissing her mouth deeply, feeling her bare back hit the book shelf. He could feel his dick growing hard as she pushed him back slowly before wrapping her arms around him, slowly driving his hardened member between her legs. Button grasped her still wrapped breasts, softly pushing against them as he began to slowly grind against his tool, feeling her lower lips pass over it. The two hit the ground as Sweetie gripped his ass and felt her lower dungeon get entered by his wonderful spear. She softly moaned, bending down to kiss him again.

He held her by the hips, slowly pumping in and out, was her softly gasp with each thrust. He loved watching the faces she made, seeing her hair dance a bit as she gripped his shoulders. It was awkward but she was loving this feeling. He sat up and gripped her tightly, suddenly pushing her up a bit as he attempted to shift positions.

He gripped her legs as she held onto his shoulders. He then began to pull and gently push her back and forth. She gripped his head, mashing it against her breasts as she began to moan harder again, feeling him barreling in and out of her. He was glad he could breath the water otherwise he might have worried about getting smothered. But they were still hidden behind those wrappings... Ah screw it.

He gently reached up and yanked at the wrappings, feeling some of them tear. Sweetie got the memo and pulled as well, tearing a bunch loose as more unwound. She pulled them free, soon freeing her breasts, allowing Button to clench his teeth around her right nipple, feeling him softly suck on it.

She nearly came right there and then. She sang out, feeling him go in deep. Oh he was about to cum. She could feel it. She held him close, feeling his voice cry out against her as she felt a wave of hot loving seed shoot deep inside her, filling her up with his love. She softly sighed, riding out her orgasm as she felt him continue to softly nip at her tits. The two held each other tightly for a moment before Sweetie tapped him on the shoulder.

He looked up and she pointed at her wrist. She didn't have a watch but he got the memo, they only had so much time. Still, that five minute break for hot, steamy underwater sex was absolutely worth it.

They quickly got back to work, with Button slowly pulling away and pointing downwards, letting her now he was going to check the cabin below them. She pointed outside, planning to check around the rocks.

She split off, softly caressing her lower lips for a second before swimming out. She had pretty much forgotten about her pants but there was little point with them and they were dragging anyways. She swam out and began to pick up some of the larger looking rocks, thankful for the bandages around her hands as she picked up each on. Then something shiny caught her attention. There was another disk, wedged into the rock above her. She pulled it out and quickly began to swim back to the ship. Just as she was about to reach the lower door, she swore she heard something open up.

She glanced around and soon saw a mechanical looking tentacle creature creep along the sand towards her. It looked kind of like an octopus only it had one large eye and its tentacles didn't have the suction cups, just half orbs covering its long appendages. Sweetie set the disk near the door and readied her spear.

As the creature got closer, she extended it, attempting to show that she meant business. The large red eye seemed to glanced at the spear, stopping its movement. Sweetie stared at the creature and started to notice something; there was a dicks grasped between when two tentacles started near its head.

She took a deep breath and let out slowly. Sweetie eyed her prize, unsure how to get it. The creature seemed to be paused for a moment. She winced, trying to decide on what to do. With no sign of Button coming out yet, she decided to make a break for it. She pushed against the boat, propelling her forward with her arm outstretched and spear poised in her other hand.

She missed the eye but clanged it off the side of the creatures head, just as her hand found its way around the disk. She pulled on it, but it would not budge. She swung the spear around behind her and pulled with both hands. Still nothing. At this point, the creature seemed to recover and grasped her with two of it tentacles, bounding her arms together in its grasp. The spear feel as it did so, the strap having broke.

She wiggled around, trying to break free just as another one with for her legs. The creature then began to start dragging her along towards the back of the room. She was unsure where it was taking her but she was sure it wasn't going to end well. Just as she managed to wrench her hand free, the spear came sailing at the creatures eye, stunning it. She turned back to see Button swimming after her. She grinned and attempted to grab the disk again, this time managing to pull it loose.

Button came over and helped to pull her free. Once she was, the two quickly started swimming back towards the bell. She passed him the disk along the way and he held up six fingers. The two grinned just as they entered the bell. Their gills were still on though and that creature was bound to make a return. Button stuck his head out of the water. He looked around and sure enough, there was a camera mounted at the very top. Button held up six fingers, still unable to speak.

The camera seemed to focus for a second before a green light suddenly turned on inside the bell.

Sweetie watched as the creature started heading for them, only to stop and start to swim away, its eye turning green. The two ducked back down and hugged each other, glad for that to all be over.

Suddenly, both felt there necks get sore as they felt a weird sensation come over them. They seemed to get weirdly light headed before their vision swam. Then they watched as each others gills began to vanish from their necks. The two quickly swam back up into the bell, pulling themselves up onto the bench as they began to breath normally again.

The two held each other for a second before glancing back down at the bag. The voice of Selene came on over head. "Way to cut it close you two. Had to have a sex break I see but I guess I can't argue with your results. You two did well to find all the disks and managed to beat back the creature. Well done. This bell will take you back up, then there will be a door with a green light over it, take that one and it will lead into a small break room. This will be your last chance to take some time and rest before your last room so use your time well."

With that, the bell began to rise up as the two sat there, quietly.

They stayed in silence until the bell reached the top, a bit of floor extending out behind them. The climbed out and Button couldn't help but wonder what the deal was with the disks. He glanced at them a bit closer, realizing that they had writing on them but very faded. It seemed to have numbers on them and their names... Strange.

Sweetie Belle gently nudged him as he dropped off the bag in a box labeled disk drop off. "Hey, looks like we may be ending it how to started it."

Button raised a brow. "What, naked and extremely horny?"

She laughed. "Well yes, but most importantly..." She placed a hand around his left arm and hugged him against her. "We are finishing this together."

He smiled and nodded. "Yeah... We are."

The two nodded and casually walked through the green door, ready to take a break and rest before whatever crazy thing came next.
