"Sweet," Luke said excitedly, "Let's go swimming."
He ripped off his shirt and leaped into the water, Buddy not close behind.
Kira removed the large collar of her shirt, then slipped off her skirt. She backed up, then ran at the water. Just before she hit the water, Kira took to the air. She flew up until she was at least twenty feet in the air. Then, she folded her wings and plummeted headfirst into the lake. Luke ducked under the water and watched Kira dive downwards. She righted herself and flapped her wings once. She came shooting up out of the water like a dolphin, doing a neat flip before landing feetfirst in the water.
"this is really nice," Kira said breathlessly, "I haven't been clean in days."
Just then. they heard the clatter of hooves from the oppisate shore. they looked over and saw a herd of unicorns coming down to drink, beautiful with thier pure white fur. the lead unicorn dipped his spiral horn in the water, then the others stepped forward and drank from the now pure water.
"Wow," said Kira softly.the unicorns looked just like the descriptions in the old stories her dad used to tell her. their white flanks shone in the sun and their loin-like tails flicked at flies. One unicorn looked up and saw luke and kira floating in the water. he winnied, and the herd galloped away. Luke and Kira floated in silence until Luke spoke.
"You know," he said, almost to himself, "I thought most bodies of water had a spirit to protect it. I wonder where this one's is."
As if in answer to his question, they heard a loud rumble.
"You just HAD to ask, didn't you," Kira said sarcatically as they swam for shore.
they reached it not a moment too soon. A water serpent lifted it's head out of the water. It's blue scales glittered like the water as it looked around for the intruders on its domain. Seeing none, the creature sank back down below the surface.
Dripping, Kira, Luke, and Buddy walked back to the campsite. Kira quickly lite the fire and they sat around it, trying to warm up and dry off.
"i don't think we're going swimming again," said Kira, shivering.
"Agreed."
They pulled their dry clothes back on and dug out some dried meat for dinner.
Dusk quickly fell, bringing with it the coolness of night. Luke and Kira climbed in their bed and and went to sleep.
