Broken Voyagers
The wind whipped wet blonde tendrils across her throat as they sped towards the wreck site. She was sitting at the front on the edge of the inflatable, her left hand gripping tightly around the rope which ran along the length of the side of the craft to steady herself. Every time the boat rocked, the water splashed over the edge wetting her hand and licking at her bare feet on the wooden slatted bottom. Bette sat across from her, her regal profile stoic and undeterred from looking at the horizon.
Tina wondered what was going through her head. The archaeologist had worked tirelessly on finding Melvin’s treasure and so far, the search had returned nothing but disappointment and frustration. She knew better than to interrupt whatever was occupying her girlfriend’s mind. When the brunette was quiet and contemplative, Tina knew her mind was cataloguing, assessing, weighing pros and cons and searching for a way forward which would ultimately rid them of Kelly Wentworth.
They were a mile out from the tiny island’s harbour, still in sight of land but getting close to open sea. The water did not seem too deep here and it was calm which added another layer of comfort for the upcoming dive.
When they finally reached the spot, it was only with a knowing nod and a couple of diving signals that the two women let themselves topple backwards into the deep azure of the Mediterranean Sea.
As soon as her wetsuit filled with water, Tina shivered, goosebumps awakening all over her body. It was surprisingly cold but no unwelcomed. Beams of light cut through the clear water and illuminated the paths into the water and to the bottom, with knife-edge clarity.
Silence engulfed her. For the next while, her only touch would be the watery cold and the only sound, that of her own breathing and heartbeat.
She drifted slowly into an upright position. A string of air bubbles emerged from the cuff of her wet suit, remnants of the trapped air against her skin which had now been forced out and replaced with water. They trickled past her mask on their way to the surface. She checked her mesh bag at her waist before glancing at her computer watch. Everything was where and how it should have been. She took a moment to orient herself then picked a direction and finned out. Pointing herself like an arrow, her legs started scissoring, stretching her arms in front of her for steering and the occasional extra push of speed. She angled deeper as she went, slowly descending and before she realised it, she was skimming the bottom, seaweed brushing over her stomach, tickling her fingers. Rocks were sharp like concrete under their algae fuzz. She was careful not to scrape against them.

Hi Kins,
So glad to see this story! It will take some time to read it and i will leave a comment after i finish.
Hi, welcom back, Kins!
Thank you for finished this story! Ok, now i’m going to read it.
Hi, Kins
Oh my God, Kins, welcome back, after almost 2 years, it’s been a long time, but reading the whole story now I feel, the wait was worth.
You have given us a quite wonderful and interesting story full of adventures and riddles and full of love of my favorite couple Bette and Tina.
You ended the story in a very good way, but I feel as if I want to know more about them, if Bette gets the funding for her project in Mexico, the wedding, their partnership, what Tina does for a job… and many more things.
I hope we could read more new beautiful stories from you; I like very much your style.
Thank you very much and please, post other TIBETTE stories

Ok, i read again this story, this time the whole and i’m ready to leave another comment.
First – thank you again for finish the story.
Second – happy to see happy final -treasure was found, bitch Kelly got lost. And i must say i like how you got rid from her – like in life we can say with 100% probability what happened – or she sank or she was killed by shark.
Third – i like how you described Bette and Tina and love between them. I like it in all your stories (maybe with one exception – in Frozen beginnings i don’t like your Bette during the story, but in final she corrected :) )
So, welcome back and maybe in the future we can see another great story from you? I really hope so.
Hi Kins,
Really enjoyed the read, thank you so much.
A great Story and I loved reading it in one post. As an English Lady I really enjoyed your explanation of Cricket!
I would love it if you would now consider a Sequel with these two characters.
Thanks again for posting.

Welcom back, Kins!
I was a silent reader a long time, but after you finished this story i must register to say – “Thank you for fantastic story! And i hope this story won’t be your last on this site!”
Totaly agree with MissOne – i hope this story won’t be the last from you too!
Hi Kins,
You took us trough a incredible journey! Full of adventures, little clues i tried to catch to find the treasure, the background on the history of those ships and of course the love between Bette & Tina.
I really hope you will continu with a sequel or a new story.
Thank you so much for posting the whole story after two long years!
In-cre-di-ble! Kins, thank you so much for returning to this story and for giving us such a glorious and sweet ending. You’re such a talented writer. What a wonderful plot with astonishing details to the treasure hunt.
I second the previous comments and hope you’ll find the inspiration (and time) to work on a sequel. Maybe Bette’s project in Mexico with a twist with some unexpected traces of a legendary Aztec treasure ;)
Well ive read it at last.So pleased you managed to finish this story.I know how long it was in conception and all the research you did for its authenticity.
A great read.Loved the shark sequence.Found it quite thrilling.
