I could breath, but moving was impossible. I hadn't realized how deep the pool was. Flight couldn't shoot me to the surface. Too much pressure held me down. Morphing was never a strength of mine, so that meant growing fins were out of the question.

So I sank. The light faded, the water pushing every angle of my body. I was paralyzed in a dark box of force.

How long had it been? Screaming for my sibling to help me when only gurgles came out. Hours, days, weeks. Eventually, time stole her face from me; and by the instant our creator, cloaked in his dolphin persona came to my rescue the memory of her stayed at the very bottom of the lake.
