It was a quiet two minutes of holding her breath before; to her surprise she just couldn't stand it anymorew she rose as quick as she could and gasped for air, not having once noticed that she had been getting watched and observed and possibly undressed by Ryu mentally. she shivered slightly feeling rather upset with herself for being so out of practice, of course she still had yet to learn of the island's deeper secrets.
"Shit... that couldn't have been more than a minute and a fucking half! I used to be able to do five without magic!"

she cursed to herself shaking her head looking to ryu whom would no doubt have surfaced by now.
"Alright deals a deal, what's the favor red?"

well she didn't sound bitter anyway.

Ryu made sure there would be a small space between them as Lyndsey gave up and rose up to the surface so she wouldn't lose. She couldn't resist a laugh by her statement about her usual time under the water's surface, but quickly stopped and set up a gentle smile as she asked what favor she''d have to come up with as part of their deal.

I didn't tell you anything about me, yet. I like to upset people, Blue... I really do. I can't help it, you owe me a favor and I'd like to upset you in a way, it's nothing mean or something else, I simply enjoy it.

She made sure the distance between them would be close enough for the favor, for now it wouldn't be that bad like the thing she first intended to do with the student but still enjoyable enough. The redhead set up a playful smile, a kind of teasing voice and moved slightly to the right when she said something.

You seemed pretty angry about the girls we saw earlier today, guess what the favor is? Please, undress yourself and give me your suit, that's everything I want. Treat me as you like afterwards, but that's the favor. A deal is a deal, am I right Blue?

She winced slightly at that. she was a bit angry with herself for another reason now that she had heard the favor and the reason behind it. She offered a faint huff and a bit of a scowl.

"yeah I guess a deal is a deal, I've never welshed before not going to start now..."

She took a breath as she glanced around the area, she didn't see any other people around. it was quiet enough anyway. She took a deep breath looking down to herself again before she'd simply slide off the bottoms as quickly as she could manage angry at herself for deciding not to wear her boxers underneath before she'd take off her top much more slowly, it was sticking a bit more than she was used to. the silk bindings around her chest were obviously tight though they didn't completely flatten her chest, they did do a decent job at hiding it's complete size.

She held out the sharkskin garments to Ryu with a blush obvious on her face as her spare hand sat between her legs to hide her nethers from view.
"Happy? or does undress mean this too?"

she asked motioning to the cloth over her chest and midriff.

It amused her when she looked around before she got almost completely undressed as if not believing Ryu's words about the seclusion of the cliff. Of course it had been one of the reasons why she wanted to go there, and for now it was quite pleasant that Lyndsey had followed her. Ryu carefully checked every body part of the student and the way she did it, slowly and quickly at the same time, was quite arousing.

The redhead took the offered clothes with a smile and kept herself moving in a slow way, as the girl blushed and tried to hide what she already knew she must be interested in, she decided to go further into it.

Hm, no... not at all. Please undress appropriate.

Still keeping her clothes and moving in a steady rhythm she thought about what to do next. Maybe she wanted to get her clothes back, obviously she just wanted to get them back but what was she willing to offer? Her mind tried to make something up but failed due lack of creativity.

I said there would be no one around, no reason to be embarassed Blue, really. Not with your anatomy, believe me.

sighed faintly as she undid the single knot that held the fabric tight around her chest and unwrapped it , for a few moments she got tangled in the silky fabric with the velvet underside. after several moments she would finally have it undone and off her hands clear of her body and offering her last 'garment' to Ryu.

"Alright, I'm naked. and of course I have reason to be embarrassed, I'm naked out in public where someone could just come out from around a tree and see me, and of course you see me; right there!"

she took a breath knowing she'd be able to go back to her clothes that were resting a ways up the beach later but, that was her favorite swimsuit. she wanted it back but, she didn't want to risk asking for it, who knew what ryu would want to do for her to obtain her garments though it could easily be seen in her eyes that she wished she could redress right now.

Come on, don't get mad about it. Believe me, nobody is going to show up here or rather watch us from somewhere else. And yes, I can see you, everything of you if you prefer to say that.

It was obvious the student wanted to get her clothes back even if she could simply go back to the beach and get her other stuff. Clothes are common objects around, but maybe she was interested to get out of her embarassment right now. Ryu gazed at the whole visible surface of her company and kept her sweet smile all the time before she looked up into her eyes.

Do you want your clothes back? Of course you want them back, why am I asking? So... want another competition for the same price as before or do you simply want to try to get them back with force?

why did she have to say competition...

she thought looking on at Ryu with obvious interest. Her arms crossed under her free giistening chest which wasn't all that small, it suited the 5' 2" tall woman well and her arms forcing them up just made her look better.
"Alright a competition with the same stakes I win i get my clothes back you win you get... uhm... i take it you'll be wanting another favor."

She decided then to let Ryu decide on what they'd do.
"I made the stakes you make the challenge."

The soaked matted pubic hair at her nethers was neat short and trimmed into the shape of a dagger, her tattoo was even more obvious and the face the runes covered part of her chest ending just to the top of her bosom.

She welcomed the view of her body completely revealed in front of her, of course it would have been no fun to enjoy such a view without any contest to reach out for such a price. Ryu took another deep breath and tried to focus on the student's face again, a hard but acceptable casualty to think clearly.
You get it right, I like that. You win, you get your clothes, I win, you owe me another favor, guess we have a deal here.

The redhead began to think about a suitable competition, she still held the clothes of Lyndsey and it wouldn't be wise to get rid off them too fast. She sighed but quickly glanced up in the eyes of her again.
Well, how about a swimming contest, a race? Even with this clothes I may be an appropriate antagonist. I like your tattoo though.

Ryu said and looked down at the girl's nethers before her eyes crawled over her skin, upwards to her chest, taking the full view of her tattoos while saving the image in her head as another pleasant memory.

A swim race, well that would be just fine in Lyndsey's mind. she smiled nodding to Ryu. Hands shifting from under her bosom to float at her sides.
"Alright then from here to that rock. That sound good?"
she motioned to about 30 meters from where they were floating right now. A roll of her shoulders showed off her bosom even more without realizing it.

She looked to ryu with a bright smirk, showing there were no hard feelings for what she had made her do, despite how red it made her face as she prepared to start.

Sounds good.

Ryu smiled and watched how her company got ready to start, just as she did. She used the small amount of time before she would give the start signal and stretched her swimsuit where she put the clothes in her arms. Not the best place to hide them, but for now she'd need her arms to be a rather serious enemy. The material quickly tightened again and she made sure the clothes wouldn't escape and dive to the seabed.

Allright, let's start then. Ready? Go!

She said and made the first kicking as her legs and arms made the first stroke through the water just as Lyndsey did. Ryu was quite sure she'd lose if she was going to put not all efforts into it, but for now she wanted to see what she'd have to expect from the student in 30 meters.

At the signal Lyndsey took off as quickly as she could manage before she suddenly stalled when she was a certain distance away, far enough away to show off her sex with almost each kick. She blushed bright and slowed considerably. This was embarrassing, she was to modest to take too much of a lead or kick strong enough to get a good amount of speed going. She cursed to herself under her breath as Ryu took a slight lead before she'd again begin to speed up only keeping at best a one hand lead, and even then it was doubtful she'd win given how hard it was for her to swim naked. her chest was causing drag and her lack of bottoms meant if she took the lead she'd be exposing herself to Ryu.
I am a fucking idiot! why didn't i think of this before accepting?!

she thought angrily as she tried to keep up with ryu as best she could.

Thanks for the view!

Ryu said before she gazed to her side to embarassed student, she made it so easy for her to win if she would manage to swim faster. And that's what she did. Now that she knew the student would be too embarassed to swim further in front of her she took the possibility of her own to increase her efforts and began to move faster, increasing the rate of her movements and the pace of herself.

She wondered if Lyndsey would be able to keep her one hand lead or simply gave up while trying. The rock came closer and closer, she could really smell the tension and the final result of the battle in the air.

She lost focus when Ryu had called out she slowed even further as the blood rushed to her face and, unfortunately for her that second was all that was needed for Ryu to reach the rock first. She sighed to herself looking to the rock as she would reach it now.
"I hate being modest..."

she said with just a hint of self-loathing in her voice as she looked to Ryu taking another deep humble breath.
"Alright Red, I'm at your mercy again, what could you possibly want me to do now?"

she asked floating in the water sounding asfriendly and nervous as ever as her mind wandered through what else ryu would possibly do to bother her like she so seemed to enjoy doing to her friends or anyone.

Haha, modest... Ryu mentioned to herself loud before she even noticed she already won and turned to the student who just seemed to blush further than before. It was a pleasant view, at least for the redhead if not for anyone else.

While she took another deep breath, Ryu still kept her smile and gazed significantly at her body before she returned to the subject.
Well, what could I want... it's a hard decision sometimes, don't you think so as well, my dear Blue? She said in an ironic tone.

Ryu closed the distance between them so just about five inches remained. Lyndsey still appeared like a closed box towards her, it made her a bit sad but on the other hand it made everything much more exciting. She didn't intend to annoy or force others to hate her, but that's how she was, she didn't plan to change unless she was able to keep some of her friends of course.
Everything I want this time is to touch you, Blue, and I want you not to move if you don't mind. Serious research, you know?

She decided it better not to reply to Ryu at first lest she say something stupid and piss off her new... friend? well she wanted to think of Ryu as a friend anyway even if she was putting her through hell right now, it could be worse.

then Lyndsey just blinked slightly at what ryu had asked for. This red head certainly seemed to have odd requests, the words research were enough to let her nod to Ryu as she would take a breath again glancing about before she would look at the rock then Ryu again.
"Alright I don't have much of a choice Red, but would you rather do this in the water? it's kind of hard to not move y'know. Maybe I should lay on the rock or your towel on the beach or something."

Of course she was offering more for her own comfort than anything, her legs were getting a little tired as were her arms and just floating left her to the sway of the current naked.
