Don't be afraid to message me with any questions/suggestions! Thanks for reading

"WHALE! PULL YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS AND SWIM THE SET AS I WROTE IT!"

A kickboard flew across the pool, aimed at Victor Whale.

Head Coach Regina Mills had always had a reputation for being cold and demanding of her swimmers, and was often referred to as 'the Evil Queen' in grumblings by her swimmers. But for as harsh of a coach she was, Regina Mills had created one of the best teams in Storybrooke University history.

"WE HAVE OUR MOST IMPORTANT DUEL MEET OF THE SEASON IN FOUR DAYS AND MY TOP BREASTSTROKER CAN'T EVEN SWIM A GOD DAMN PRACTICE CORRECTLY?! OVER MY DEAD BODY ARE WE LOSING TO THOSE DAMN PIRATES!"

The Roger College Pirates and the Storybrooke University Knights had a long swimming rivalry that went back further than anyone's memory. For the past ten years, the Pirates, with head Coach Bobby Gold, had won the conference championship meet. The Knights were always a close second, and Coach Mills was determined to make this year a first place finish. Starting with winning the dual meet.

"GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER WHALE AND SWIM!"

A pull-buoy was launched at Whale's head. It made a direct hit.

"Damn, the Evil Queen was pissed today," Emma muttered to Mary Margaret in the locker room.

"I think Coach Mills is just very stressed. She really wants to beat Roger and Coach Gold this year. I think the team needs to cut her some slack."

"Why are you always so understanding and kind?"

"I'm an elementary education major. Kindness is required," Mary Margaret smiled at her friend.

Mary Margaret was a petite woman with a soft face and a beautiful pixie cut. She and Emma had become fast friends their freshman year during countless hours of distance crew practices. They now roomed together in Snow Hall.

"And that is why I'm in criminal justice. No kindness needed."

"You're not as mean as you think you are, Emma. Are you going to eat or going straight back to Snow?"

"Back to Snow. I have a hot date with a half-eaten burrito bowl and a lot of homework tonight."

"Ok. Well David and I are going to study together in the library after dinner!"

"Don't get too crazy in those hidden corners of the library with Dave," Emma winked.

Mary Margaret smiled and rolled her eyes, "You have such a filthy mind. See you later!"

"Later, you goody-two shoes."
