(A/N:Just so you nknow, I'm sorry this is kinda rush, kinda stupid and really late. D: I feel awful!)

The next day, Doris had her blonde hair in a tight bun, was wearing a light-blue bikini, a scoober-diving mask and - of corse - a scoober-diving tank. "So.. I'm just going swimming?"asked Doris in a slightly shocked, slightly disappointed and mostly dull way as she quickly glanced down at the water and back up at her mentors. She was already the best girl swimmer in school, so why did she have to practise now?

"Not exactly, we just want to know a few things on how you swim.. like how fast you can swim, how far you can swim and how long you can hold your breath underwater.."explained Mentor Ying kindly then frowned slightly when she noticed Doris' bored out of her mind expression. "I know it sounds boring, but trust me! It'll get better!"exclaimed Ying reassuringly and smiled a bit with pleading eyes. Sighing, Doris ended up giving in and slipped under the water with her mask on and looked up at Ying and Yang.

Doris' POV:

"So, you ready?"I clearly heard Mentor S ask me above the surface, enthusiasm and hope weaving throughout her voice. ..Yes, I know it's usually less likely to hear underwater clearly, but I've found a whole lot easier than usual since I turned 13 which was a good 2 years ago. It was since my grandmother gave me this jewel encrusted necklace at my 5th birthday too, since I felt like I could do anything.. It was only since I met Kowalski when I felt fearless! Though when he told me he like-liked me.. I felt the world slow down and he may think I'm a jerk for saying no - which I did GENTLEY - but saying no was the hardest decision of my life.. When he told me he loved me, it was as if I felt tied down, but at the same time.. I've never felt more free. As I smile to myself, I realise something.. I've always been in love with my boy best friend/frienemy/crush.. I just never found out about it...

"Doris!"shouts Mentor Yang angrily, instantly snapping me out of my thoughts. "I said SWIM! Swim nitwit, swim!"

I swam around the water, wondering what would impress them, then I thought of when I was in the Swimming Talent Show For Kids when I was 8 and I did this cool trick to win! I closed my eyes to imagine strawberry jelly torpedos about to shoot and a ring of fire dangling 1 foot above the water, the open my eyes to see my vision. 'Let's do this!'I thought to myself enthusiastically as my grey-blue eyes narrowed in determination. I made a swim for it as the torpedos got fired and I, who now has reflexes, Speed and Agility on my side, miraculously dodge each strawberry torpedo in a quick whirl. Now here comes the dangerous part, the Ring of Fire. *sigh* I remember this, I was a pro at this but when it came to the Swimming Talent Show For Kids.. I flipped out! The nerves.. They just got to me.. I took it to the side, got burned on the right rib and had to get plastic surgery for 6 WEEKS! I, being a totally chill person, took this on the bright side, my brother..wasn't was chilled and held a huge grudge against the swimming team when he got burned.. Like, LITERALLY burned - Not the insult. I visually shiver at the thought of my brother, then turn back to the fire which I was coming up to and jumped! Suddenly, the room fell silent and time slowed down as I shot through the hoop, I closed my eyes, to afraid on what I would see. I felt the water surround me as I re-enter, the bubbles whizz passed while I slowly sink to the bottom then I fly back up and somersault before land in a perfect balance on the ground next to the Mentors.

"That... was... AMAZING!"cheered Ying and hugged me, did mention that she's like the older sister I had? No? Well now I just did! Getting back to the story, Yang had a cross/concentrated face as she writes down my results in her note pad and S clapped politely and smiled.

"So how'd I do, Teach'?"I question in a laid back fashion, successfully hiding the fear and anxiousness behind that. Dang! I just admitted that to you! YOU SPY! ...Oh My God, I'm turning into Skipper! DX

Looking up at me, Mentor Yang reads out my results professionally,"You can swim confidently and stylishly, your speed is impeccable, the grace was remarkable and that penultimate trick you did, with the fire, was outstandingly scary."

"Awesome! What next?!"I cry excitedly, hoping it would be something less.. Ordinary.

"Holding your breath!"answers S enthusiastically, a little too enthusiastic if you ask me. *scoff* My face drops and I give her a 'seriously?' look. "We just want to see how long you can hold your breath underwater, but we need you to concentrate REAL hard!" I roll my eyes takes off my scoober diving mask and air-tank and was about to dive in when Mentor Yang stopped me.

"WAIT! We actually want you to dive into a tank where we can see you.."she explained the trailed off and snapped her fingers to make a glass tank with water filling it up to halfway. Sighing dramatically, I climb up this ladder and jump down closing my eyes.

Normal POV:

The three Mentors watch as Doris plumages to the bottom and holds her breath, when a song starts playing whilst she does so which was Stand in the Rain by SuperChic(k). After a few minutes, Doris was still holding her breath when suddenly, the Mentors could hear her voice but she wasn't talking. 'C'mon, concentrate. I can do this! I'm succeeding and I'm not going to slow down on this - never.' The voice sounded kind of echoy, like on TV when some one is reading their diary for example in their head and you can hear them reading, like that! Then that's it hit them, they could hear Doris' thoughts, even though they weren't trying to read her mind. Sharing looks with each other, they turned back to Doris to see something really small movement on her neck and when they looked closer they saw gills!
"Woah, I.. I think she's ready!"comented Mentor S and turned back to the other two Mentors who just nodded since they were both still trying to take in the fact that Doris had gills.

Suddenly, the song changed to I Miss You by Avril Lavigne as they heard another thought from Doris,'Just like grandma taught me.. Stay strong and show no fear. I miss you grandma.. I can still remember the song that played at your funeral..'they heard Doris think in a..bittersweet way before she sang the chores of I Miss You which was actually her granny's funeral song. 'I hope you can hear me,

Cause I remember it clearly..

The day.. You.. Slipped away,

Was the day, I found it won't be the same!'

"Dang.. That is sad."commented Mentor Yang who finally snapped out of her trance, as well as Ying. "YO DORIS!"she yelled suddenly, making Doris and the other gentler Mentors jump and look at her. "Talk to me, in the water."she ordered with a smirk on her dark face. You could obviously see Doris' eyes widening as she gave her a 'Wth?!' look but complied anyway,"DOYOUHAVEADEATHWISHFORME!?"she shouted quickly and started hyperventilating before realising she wasn't drowning. Turning back to Mentor Yang and the rest,she saw they were all smiling at her and she smiled back.

"This. Is. Awesome!"she commented as she started swimming around in a cute little circle.
