Unlike the other pairs, Wooyoung and San left Zeeta immediately, both being in agreement of looking outside the borders. They were both extremely excited, they loved to explore and finding this shard was a great excuse to do it. While San just wanted to explore the outskirts, Wooyoung had other plans.

Before they left, they took a quick trip to the castle because Wooyoung stated he needed to grab something. He came out with a small purse that went around his shoulder and refused to answer any of San's questions on what was in it. However, now that they were out of Zeeta and away from the others, Wooyoung put his plan in motion.

"Hey, let's travel further up this way." Wooyoung suggested, pointing in the opposite direction of the entrance to Zeeta. San turned to him with a suspicious look on his face, putting down the clam he had picked up earlier.

"I thought we were just going to explore the border." San said confusedly. Wooyoung had suggested the borders, so why he had changed his mind so quick, San could not guess. Wooyoung shrugged his shoulders and grabbed San's arm.

"But that's boring! Let's go explore further out, this is the only time I'll be allowed this far out without Seonghwa nagging at me! C'mon!" Wooyoung dragged San in the direction he pointed, swimming so fast that San lost his footing. While he knew Wooyoung wasn't quite telling all the truth, he went with no argument. He was only down here temporarily, might as well have some fun.

They traveled for ten minutes without stopping and San was getting tired. Wooyoung though, was still as energetic as before, San thought that he would never run out of energy, he was like a battery that never ran out. They were out so far that they couldn't see Zeeta anymore, only seaweed and the ocean, some unique shells too. San started to whine.

"Wooyoung my legs are killing me, how long are we going to keep going out?" San complained, tugging at Wooyoung's arm. Wooyoung turned to him and smiled, moving his arm to hold San's hand. San looked at their connected hands and blushed, trying to yank his hand away but Wooyoung's grip was strong.

"Don't worry, we're almost there."

"Wait, I thought we were just blindly exploring, where are we-"
Before San could finish, Wooyoung swam ahead so far that San's legs were behind him. It was like being on a rocket powered boat, except he was with a rocket powered Wooyoung. They traveled so far in such little time, that San started to notice that the seabed was rising, the ocean height decreasing. However they were going so fast that San was extremely dizzy and could not say anything.

They suddenly stopped in front of two wooden pillars which led to above the water. San was getting very suspicious now. "Wooyoung, what's going on? We weren't just randomly exploring, were we?"

Wooyoung smiled giddily and held onto his purse tight. He shook it in excitement and turned to San. "You'll never guess what I have." Wooyoung reached into his purse and pulled out 2 bottles, with identical navy blue liquid inside. San just looked back at Wooyoung, perplexed.

"Uh, what are those?"

Wooyoung gasped in offence, as if he has done something wrong. "These, are a special kind of potion, one that no one but me has, well, no one anymore! Do you trust me?" Wooyoung asked seriously. San didn't know what to say, he hadn't known Wooyoung for very long, but he felt like Wooyoung wouldn't do anything to harm him. He was terrified at this feeling.
