I hope y'll liked that last chapter. I needed physical therapy from Martin's death hug. I don't feel like doing the disclaimer. You all get the point. Enjoy!
Third Person P.O.V
Keera was wearing a black and purple diving suit with blue spandex gloves that she had attached to it. She was about to take her diving test. She was very nervous, she wasn't the best swimmer around, because she was rather muscly though underweight.
"For this test, you will dive to the bottom of the pool, and retrieve the weights. Go!" Aviva yelled.
Keera Judged the weights to be to the left of where they were and dived. She wasn't very fast, and felt like her lungs would explode, then she grabbed the weights, exactly where she judged they were, and swam back up as fast as she could. She burst out of the water, gasping for air. Her eyes were all watery, they hadn't given her goggles.
"You weren't that fast, but you held breath for a decent amount of time. We'll work on swimming another time." Aviva said.
Chris studied her. She looked relieved, not agitated, like he thought she might be. Most kids would be frustrated or mad, but not Keera. She looked rather cheerful.
"Now, you will have to climb a tree, retrieve the ball of yarn, throw it as far as you can at that white line, then come back down and finish at the line. Go!"
Keera sprinted over to the tree. She was a decent sprinter, but with those long strong legs, she was a better distance runner. She jumped into the tree, wrapped her arms around the tree, then skittered up the branches. She snatched the ball of yarn, spotted the white line, and threw it as hard as she could at the line. She slid down the tree, and ran to the white line and skidded to a halt.
"Impressive!" Aviva praised, "Now you will run a race with Martin and Chris, to the Tortuga and back."
The three lined up, waiting for the signal to run. Keera figured she would lose, though they were heavier, they were taller and older. In fact, now that she got a good look at them, she realized they weren't that tall at all. In fact, they looked almost short to her.
"On your mark… get set… GO!" Koki yelled flagging them to go.
They took off. Keera gave it her best sprint, and soon found she matched Martin's speed. Chris was faster than Martin, and the competitive side of Keera rose up until she felt her legs pump faster until she could run no faster. She matched Chris's speed. Almost, but not quite. They touched the Tortuga and ran back. Keera found she was more nimble than Chris, which put her ahead for a split second, then she was a bit behind him again. Martin was still close by her. They skidded to a halt by the finish line, panting heavily.
"Good race guys! Keera, you're really fast!" Koki said, winking.
"Thanks!" they responded breathlessly.
Martin motioned for them to follow but Keera to stay behind.
Chris's P.O.V (it will mostly be Keera's P.O.V in this story because it is about her.)
We got in and sat on Martin's bed.
"Is she going to be a creature adventurer or no?" Jimmy asks.
Martin hesitates. Then nods. We walk out and meet Keera still standing where she was. She's anxious.
"You qualify as a creature adventurer." I say.
Her eyes blaze in excitement and she is so happy.
"Come on, let's go celebrate!" Aviva says and they parade into the Tortuga. Martin and I stay behind.
"She seemed happy. But I still don't know if we should trust her." Martin says.
"You and me both bro." I agree.
REVIEW! Don't break my heart.
