[u][i]A day at the lake.[/i][/u]
*Down by the lake, Sketch and Leyla are sitting in chairs in the sand while Serenity is walking around the beach, keeping an eye on the little ones. Sivath and Venia are in the water in their dragon form, splashing each other with water while Jura and Siyrilth are building a sand castle on the beach. Aiyanna is sleeping under a nearby tree and Sapphire is standing at the edge of the water, afraid to get in. Jura runs up to Sketch and pours a bucket of sand on him, causing him and his chair to fall over.*
"No, no, wait, gah! Pththh!!! Alright... I'm getting in the water..."
[b]That sounds like a good idea...[/b]
*Jura giggles and runs away as Sketch stands up and wades into the water.*

[b]Fentis puts an arm around Sapphire, and begins walking towards the lake.[/b]

"Do you want to learn to swim?" [b]Fentis asks, swimming back.[/b]

"Alright, first move your arms like this...." [b]He demonstrates buy moving his arms as though he were swimming a freestyle.[/b]

*She nods and does the same.*

"Hey, you're getting the hang of it!" [b]Fentis smiles.[/b]
-
[u]I-I guess so...[/u] *She swims back to him.*

"Alright, now for breathing...." [b]He demonstrates how to take in air while swimming.[/b]

*She copies him.*

"Good! Now...." [b]Time skip, eh?[/b] [b]After a few hours, Sapphire was swimming a perfect freestyle, Fentis swimming alongside her.[/b]
