A/n: I forgot to mention this is a human AU, shit

Well, ya. Its a human AU.

I wrote most of this in July, so its kinda bad.

Onwards!

Isnt there a saying that ones mind flashes to what's important before death?

That's bullshit.

She thrashed blindly, reaching up in a futile attempt to reach the surface

It was too bad she was the type of person that sinks like a rock.

She sunk further into the darkness, each thrash sending her deeper down.

She screamed, trying to alert those of her presence. The bubbles floated up, barely even reaching the surface before popping.

She was trapped.

I can't.. I dont want to die! Not like this!

Her body was beginning to numb, the lack of true air beginning to take a toll on her

She couldn't move for much longer

It was hopeless.

She stopped her struggling as her remaining strength seeped out if her muscles. She didn't know how long she had been sinking, but she didn't care. There was no hope for her to get out. The lifeguards and everyone haven't seemed to notice her yet. She was a speck of dust in the world. Soon to be forgotten.

She just aimlessly

Down down down

This is it.. heh, who knew itd be like this.

Her blurry vision caught the sight of something solid underneath her, the bottom of the pool.

She smiled lightly, closing her eyes.

She was growing dizzy, she couldnt think straight.. well, it wasnt like she could anyway.

Its just like before..

Her body hit the ground, the soft 'plunk' echoing through the water around her.

But now.. theres no blue eyed angel to save me

Her black curls obstructed her view of the light that was once her home.

She feebly pushed at the ground, trying to at least get somewhat closer to the surface she once knew

Nothing

She wanted to scream, but her lack of air forbid it.

She was so helpless, she couldnt do anything. She couldnt even swim.

Pathetic.

Claws had constricted around her throat, tightening with each second without breath.

She hated it.

She opened her mouth, trying to breathe, to get rid of the feeling she hated.

Big mistake.

Water began to gush in, filling her mouth.

She coughed, well, tried to. She was only met with more water gushing in.

At that point, she knew it.

She knew she was going to die.

The world seemed eerily silent around her, only the sound of her struggle filling it.

Water filled her lungs, making her gasp for more air, which made more water enter her mouth.

It was hopeless

She turned her head towards the surface. She smiled slightly, seeing the light she once called home. And for the final time, closed her eyes.

Two children sat near a river, one playfully splashing the other with water. They giggled gaily, having fun on this nice today. They were young kids, around the age of 8.

"Can you hear me?"

"Hey, what're you talking about? I'm right next to you! Of course I can."

The girl seemed startled. "Huh? I didn't say anything?"

"Oh.. It must've been the wind then!"

"The wind?" The girl next to her shuffled a bit, sitting criss crossed. "How can the wind talk?"

"I mean, my dad used to tell me that the wind has seen it all and is there to give life to everyone-"

"Can you hear me?"

Ruby chose to ignore the voice. "Or it could just carry the sound of someone's voice. Its weird, really."

The other girl smiled slightly, taking in the strange concept. "Interesting."

"How did this happen?"

The voice sounded again, stirring Ruby once again. Her heart was in her throat, she couldn't breathe. "Are you okay?" The blue eyed girl asked, causing her to look up.

Ruby clutched her throat, trying her best to breathe. The girl narrowed her eyes, crouching down to her level.

"Can you hear me?"

The voice sounded again, but this time it came from the girls lips.

What?

The wind whipped past the two, and suddenly the clearing they sat in was no more. They sat in a room of white

"She's not breathing!"

"What?" Ruby stopped, staring in awe at the change in setting. The pain was no more. It was eerily calm here.

She found herself liking it.

"What is this place?"

The other girl shrugged, her dark skin seeming to glow in the white. "What do you think?"

"Can you hear me?"

Ruby turned, looking up. She couldn't tell where the voice was coming from, but as every word was spoken, her heart seemed to tug her towards it.

The girl smiled sadly, "You should go follow it. Its for the best."

"But I don't want to leave you! You saved me all those years ago-" the girl shook her head, a sad smile on her face.

"That was in the past. Now, wake up Ruby. Wake up."

"What?"

"Wake up."

.

"Can you hear me?"

The voice was there again, but it sounded so much closer.

Am i dead?

Ruby herself wasnt exactly a believer, but she wouldnt mind if she was in heaven.

Her body felt heavy, like water was pressing down on every inch of her body, as if-

Wait.. Wasn't she just in the water?

She froze, not knowing what to make of the situation. Her head was lighr, and it seemed as if her heart was loeing with each coming moment. She couldnt breathe, it was if something was clogging up her lungs. But as soon as she realized that, she found that something was pushing up her throat. With a heave, liquid spilt out of her mouth, making her gag.

"She's okay.. She's okay.." An eerily familiar voice entered her mind, it seemed reassuring.

She still didn't have that much of an idea of what was going on. All she remembered was the bottom of the pool-

Oh. OH

It was all coming back to her now.

She slowly opened her eyes, wincing slightly as the light burned them. She made out a few figures, two of which were closer than others. It was all blurry for her, she couldn't tell what was what.

Goddamn contacts.. Ruby couldn't help but think as she lifted her head, blinking slightly.

As her vision cleared, she could make out a girl, probably no older than she was in front of her.

"Can you hear me?"

The voice echoed through her mind once more, its owner still not found.

The girl smiled at her, looking relieved. "Are you okay?" She helped Ruby sit up, rubbing her back as more water spilt out of the girls mouth. Ruby couldn't reply, her mind still in a haze from all that had happened.

"The medics should be here soon.. You gave us quite a scare." The girl said, ushering other people away from the scene. "Amethyst was going ballistic, she even ran out to reach the hospital." Ruby couldn't help but look up at that, unable to speak. She smiled slightly, thinking of her best friend.

Honestly, this whole situation shocked her. All had happened so quickly... But she was alive.

"Did you save me?" She choked out the words, her throat still raw from coughing up water. The girl turned, looking at her once more. Light reflected off her dark brown skin, making her glow. It reminded Ruby of the girl that had saved her from a similar predicament all those years ago. "Well.. I guess you could say that." The girls blue eye (the other was covered by her hair.) shone, making her seem almost ghostly in the light.

Ruby had found herself another blue eyed angel.

A/n: terrible cutoff i know. I might continue this, might not Idk. The only reason I finished this chapter is because someone commented on it. And ya. That's it. Sorry it was bad.
