Though she was not truly a creature of water, but of a type of fluid-like space, she still enjoyed the feeling water could give her. It felt like she back in her native environment, able to freely move around at will. The ocean was quite a lot more relaxed in the water, she didn't have to move as much, which was surprising considering how water acted in slowing a person's movement's down. She was however, born to move in fluid, and while she could do this sort of thing in air, the density of the fluidic air made it a lot more difficult.
The creature in question, a female of her species moved gracefully through the water. The four power tentacles that extended from her waist downward acted to push her along with minimal effort. She felt like an acrobat in the water, twisting and turning sharply, dodging around fish and seaweed. She could see with perfect clarity, her rather large, almond shaped eyes, the black shiny objects could stare through the water as if it weren't there. The gills on the side of her neck took in water to breathe as she deftly slid through the water. The tentacles from her shoulder and on her head that made upa form of hair wiggled gently in the current.
Pointing at the surface of the water she propelled herself upwards and out of it. Like a leaf on the wind she seemed to float upward, then gently she back to glide back into the water, slipping into it with making very few ripples or disturbances.
She had seen something on the shores. Her keen eyes had picked up a thermal disturbance. There had also been an unknown thermal smoke that she had picked up. Curiosity was her better trait. She slowly propelled herself inland, staying below the water, though no doubt the being on the beach had seen her display as she jumped into the air. She slowed down to a stop, her large eyes just above water as she observed this strange person. The creature had no idea what she was doing, or why she had a burning piece of paper and was...inhaling the smoke.
Curiously she stepped close, her feet, hidden within the four large tentacles like a dress, made contact with the sea floor and she approached. Water dripped from her grey skinned body as she surfaced up to her hips. It was no doubt she was female, she had a somewhat shapely bosom, but it held no true definition of femininity on it. "Why do you do that? It smells horrible." She enquired from her location, in case this person wasn't friendly but a hostile. If need be, she'd jump into the water and race off into the depths and disappear amongst the ocean floor.
