In a swift movement, Ruby swats at me with surprising force, her dainty hand landing right on my chest. I'm hurled backwards and fly through the air before plunging into an in-ground pool tucked away between several abandoned houses down the road. The water splashes around me as I hit the surface with a heavy thud—the impact cushioning any possible harm from my fall.
Let me just say. That water was fucking cold!
The next thing I know Ruby is attempting to pull me from the pool. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I thought you were...AAAHHHH!" *SPLOOSH!*
Ruby had lost her footing and fell into the pool
"Help! I don't know how to...glug!" Ruby says loudly her arms flailing as she struggles to stay above water
By this point I'm standing on the patio beside the pool. And I'll admit. I honestly had to take a moment. Like seriously a dragon drowning? Do you get the irony?
"Hel..agh!" Ruby bobbed trying to get out of the pool flailing
'I'm probably gonna regret this' I think to myself as I dive in
I grab Ruby and struggle to get her to the shallow end. In the process my efforts are rewarded with my ribs that were fractured when she hit me into the pool getting broken, a black eye, cracked orbital socket, a concussion and my left arm was broken when she grabbed it
I finally succeeded in pulling this girl from the water when she accidentally inhaled a lung full of water and passed out.
When I got her onto solid ground she didn't wake up but she did turn her head sideways and the pool water she inhaled and swallowed rushed from her mouth. I assume she could do that because she's a dragon.
I'll be back soon. One of my lady friends just showed up. And I got a mission to complete. This system is a blessing and a curse sometimes haha!
