The Lake

Subject: Swimming 6/12/2010, 4:51 pm

I walked to the lake side and put my towel on the ground. I jump into the lake. It was cold, but it felt great.

I walk to the lake and lay a fresh towel down. I stretched out a bit before getting in. It was cold, and it felt great on this hot day. No offense, dad.
I dove straight into the refreshing water.

I walked to the lake and saw Jace's stuff. I set my stuff by her's and jumped into the water.

I resurfaced and saw Kyler jump in. I sat there for a minute, treading water waiting for her to come up for air.

How is it that Liane hasn't said anything yet? Ker wondered as he followed her to the lake. Oh boy. So that's why she changed. He was not a water person, courtesy of his dad. He had gone from excited to go to the arena to dreadful by the water. He sat on one of the towels that had been laid out by one of the others, but he wasn't sure who it belonged to.

Subject: Re: The Lake 6/12/2010, 5:10 pm

I came up and saw Jace and Kyler also in the water. "Hey guys," I said.
I got in the lake slowly, but as I was walking, it suddenly dropped off and I fell into the deep, dark lake. I realized I had been standing on an underwater cliff. Smart. I swam back to the surface.

Liane's sudden decent scared Ker. He watched the water anxiously until she bobbed back to the surface. Good thing she was okay. Water was the one thing he avoided.

Subject: Re: The Lake 6/12/2010, 5:15 pm

I saw Ker's shock and climbed out. I wrapped myself in the towel next to him. "You okay?" I asked him.

"Hey!"

"Hey guys! Doesn't this water feel great?" I sighed as I began to float on my back.

I saw my friends swimming. I ran to go put my suit on.

Ker nodded and smiled. He was fine now that he knew she was safe. "Go," he said. "Fun. Play."

Subject: Re: The Lake 6/12/2010, 5:21 pm

"You don't want to come with us?" I asked, hoping he caught my drift. I grabbed his hands and tried guiding him to the water.
"Yup!" I said happily. "This is probably the best place to be today. Swimming on such a hot day. It's just perfect!"

Ker shook his head furiously. "No no no, not... water," he said. "Not... good." For once, fear was visible in his eyes as he looked directly into Liane's.

Subject: Re: The Lake 6/12/2010, 5:27 pm

I come back with my suit on. I run into the water and up to Kyler. I push her down.

"Hey Anders! Wait, what are you do- AUGHHFP" The last part was because Anders pushed me under the water.

"Anders! Don't drown anyone!" I said as I splashed him. He lost his hold on Kyler and she came back up, gasping for breath.

I looked at him, a little puzzled. "Okay," I said softly. I hugged him tightly.
"Dude," I said to Anders, "Don't shove her underwater. That's not cool." I splashed him and laughed.

Subject: Re: The Lake 6/12/2010, 5:32 pm

"Okay," I said, and jumped in the lake.

"She doesn't care! I will do what I want, like this!" I said as I grabbed her around her waist and kissed her long and hard.

He kissed her. I laughed and splashed them. They broke apart and Anders splashed me back. Kyler's face was bright red.

"Whatever you lovebirds." I laughed and splashed them.
I rolled my eyes and laughed at Anders. Sometimes he seemed a little pathetic.

I let go of Kyler and splashed Jace and Tori.

I splashed Jace and Tori with Anders.

I went around to the back of Tori. I tackled her into the water.

Jace pushed me under so I grabbed her under the water by her ankles and pulled her down. I popped up and sent a wave at Kyler and Anders.
I decided not to get into the water fight. It seemed a little violent.

I came up sputtering and laughing. I sent a big wave after Anders and dived at Kyler. We both went down into the water.

Jace pushed Kyler into the water and when they came back up I tackled Jace and sent her back down into the water.

I came back up and Jace went back down, Anders had pushed her. I sent a large wave at Tori.

I dove under the water and came up behind Jace. I jabbed her in the sides multiple times.

Watching the others go up and down in the water made Ker nervous. He hoped they were okay. They were his friends, after all. Or... at least... his allies. He thought about leaving to go to the arena instead. Swords made more sense to him than water.

Subject: Re: The Lake 6/12/2010, 5:57 pm

"AHHH!" I screamed. "Don't do that!" I shoved Tori back under the water.

I laughed at Jace and Tori.

While Kyler's attention was on Jace and Tori I grabbed her around the waist and pulled her underwater.

I had been expecting another underwater shove, so I had known to take a breath before going under. I continued to poke Jace from underwater.
The fighting had gotten boring to watch so I got out and sat by Ker again.

Ker looked at Liane as she joined him again. "Arena?" he asked, hoping he said it right.
