Arthur was gently putting his father in the passenger side, he closed the door shut and entered the driver's seat.

He drove out of the car park and onto the road.

As he drove in silence, he sighed to himself. He was tired. 

Tired of what happened a few days ago and what not. His father was happy his mother came back -and wasn't dead. His brother was still in prison underwater, and Mera- sweet and beautiful Mera was in Atlantis taking care of things.

Arthur began to think, think about his relationship with Mera for that matter. It wasn't really that developed you could say; they went on a journey together, learnt a few things about each other, and kissed in the middle of war. 

Arthur thought, 'Do I like her, or am I infatuated by her?'

Arthur didn't feel right as he turned to look out the window on the passenger's he swore, "shit." 

It was yet again, another tsunami. 

Arthur began to accelerate the car even further as he swore in his head 'fuck, is Orm really that angry he's in prison or what?'

He drove through the curves and bumps and he bit his lip. He knew once again he wasn't gonna make it- well his dad. And this time, he knew there was no Mera to save them both.

The tsunami came crashing down, as it ate everything in its path. The cement, the buildings, everything.

Arthur pushed himself out of the car and speeded off to get his father out of the car, it was impaled by a stone rock deep, and Arthur didn't have enough time to even get the car up to the surface. 

He began to pull the door out of its hinges and was about to unbuckle his father until a pillar decided to push him aside in the harsh waters.

He grunted and shook his head to be stable. He was at least a few meters away from his father. He estimated and knew it would be too late to save his father, but hell he was gonna try no matter what to reach him.

Arthur zoomed towards his father when something happened.

Similarly to how Mera saved the human, but it was different. The waves weren't forced away, it was almost they wanted or were commanded to move away, the water cleared a path from him towards his father.

Arthur looked up and saw the waves up like stone walls. Not even a drop entered the path. Arthur ran towards his father and took him out. He placed him down on the waterless sea bed and began to CPR him. 

After a few tries, his father coughed out the remaining water. Arthur sighed in relief and patted his father on his back. Arthur looked from where he came, the water covered it. Arthur was intrigued yet confused, 'did I get water powers after being King or something?'

Thomas Curry opened his eyes and looked around, he noted it was similar to when the red head Atlantean saved him. But somehow it was off.

He looked towards his son and muttered, "I am never getting drunk with you, it always happens."

Arthur gave a chuckle, "third time's the charm dad."

Arthur looked around and noticed something in the water directly towards him. He cautiously stepped in front of his lying father to protect him. 

Arthur commanded "come out!"

The figure lingered for a bit before moving around with the water around them, Arthur kept his eyes on it. Until it stopped moving and moved closer.

It was an inch away from the protected dry sea bed.

Arthur's eyes slowly widens briefly as a leg was placed against the dry sea bed. It was a female's leg. And soon after the whole body and head came through. Arthur noted the female's appearance.

She had brown hair that was 22 inches long, her high cheekbones helped shaped her face as she appeared to look Asian like. She had deep notable emerald green eyes that her seemed glow-like. Similar to how Mera's eyes glowed blue whenever she used her water manipulation gift.

The woman had a mole on top of her lip on the left and a mole on the right side of her chin, her upper lip was thicker where as her bottom was slightly thinner. She looked around 1.75m as she held a tall and thin physique, she had a slim built and was pleasing to the eye.

But from her attire, it was obvious she was not Atlantean. 

She had a headpiece that acted somewhat like a crown with two green jewels in the center, and another center green jewel dangled at the top of her nose bridge, the sides of the crown had a petal-like design in gold as it was paired with two black feathers in each side.

She had two dangling earrings that had a small ball lime green ge. Her attire consisted of a revealing almost lingerie-like bodysuit that were the the colors of lime green, gold and black.

She had shoulder armour that were feathers of gold with a hint of green at the top. The piece was held by a gold like necklace, embroidered by green gems which descended down between her breasts as at the black cloth below connected to her waist and attached to the emerald-gold cloth around her arms down to the floor. It almost was like a shawl and skirt pinned together with gold ruffles on the side. 

Her leg attire was matched along the whole outfit. The straps of the lingerie-like cloth connected from her upper thighs down to the top of the fabric placed on her lower thighs as they were paired with beaded bracelets. Her knee highs stockings matched the fabric on her thighs as it didn't reach her toes. They were tied to somewhat bows around her ankles. Her heels were simple as they had straps on the side and were both green-gold accented.

Finally stopped examining her, Arthur looked right into her green eyes and growled, "who are you?"

The woman looked startled from the hostility before she regained her confidence and stepped closer to him. "Mother Nature." 

Arthur looked at her once more "you have got to be kidding me."
