Needing a swim to relax

[Torri]

Torri walked silently and almost secretivly toward the swimming pool. A large black and green dressing gown covering her until she got to the pools edge and dropp it to the floor, kicking it over toward the wall so it wouldn't get wet. Now standing in just her green and black spotted bikini she sighed and rubbed her arms.

She walked slowly over to the diving board and took a deep breath, stepping onto it and jumping off it, diving into the warm water with a large Splash and swimming below the surface for a short while until she again resurfaced. Raising a hand to her hair and running it through, pushing it from her eyes.

She laughed gently to herself and started swimming silently, occasionally going below surface and opening her eyes to see. She tried to alter her shape a little, make herself taller. But only seeming to make herself a little thinner in the process.

Giving out a loud audiable groan she thumped her balled hand against the water surface, splashing herself in the process. "Why can't i do it!" she yelled angrily to herself, before emmiting another high pitched cry of anger.

[Jenny]

Jenny liked this new place. Ms. Frost said she was the youngest one here but everyone is very nice. Some more than others though and she was told to be careful how she spoke to. But Jenny didn't take heed to the warning she wanted new friends. She skipped to the big pool because well she loved the water.

Jenny saw another girl sitting in the pool looking angry a bit. So Jenny went up to her at her yelling. "Whats the matter? You cant swim either?" she asked with big curious eyes.

[Torri]

Torri looked up quickly, pushing her hair from her face a little as she noticed a small girl. Younger than her? that meant she wasn't the youngest now, not the weakest. "Oh, no....i'm sorry..." she said quietly, "I can swim, but i can't controle what i do...." she said, trailing off a little before she swam over to the bit of the pool which the cute little blonde girl stood. Placing her folded hands on the edge of the pool she looked up at her. Tilting her head in slight curiosity.

"So....whats your name?" she asked softly, keeping herself afloat by kicking her legs down under the waters surface. "Are you new here? Why are you here?" she asked, firing questions at her. The girl seemed to be very innocent, something Torri had never been able to achieve herself. But it only made her wonder more about the girl, feel the compelling need to ask her more questions.

[Jenny]

Jenny smiled big and watched her swim. "Oh you are so lucky! My daddy would never let me swim in the pond water on our farm on the count that he said our pond had a monster in it," she said with large eyes and nodded. "I wish I could swim!" she exclaimed.

"My name is Jenny! And yes I am Ms. Frost says I am the youngest here," Jenny said proudly. "I am a mutant like my daddy. He wanted me to go here cause he didn't and says its a great school!" she said with a big smile on her face. "What's you name? I like your hair," she said with a giggle. "Its pretty!"

[Torri]

Torri laughed a little at the girl. "Well Jenny, you are very lucky that your dad is like you. And it's alright.....after a while...." she said, with a slight falter in her smile. "But not to worry, you'll settle right in." she said with a small stratch of her back. "But if you like Jenny, i could show you how to swim if you like. I'm not the best but i can swim at least." she said kindly, not knowing how to act around the small girl, she herself had never been so innocent or so happy, not for a VERY long time.

At the comment about her hair Torri blushed, looking down and giving a shy smile. "Thank you, it's different to say the least. But i will get it right one time, once i controle this power of mine." she said with a small sigh. "Oh, and i'm Torri.....but my codename is Shimmer. I'm not too fond of either though, but i can't help either of them..." she sighed again.

[Jenny]

Jenny laughed. "Ah sure! I just need to find my bathing suit. Momma says you never swim without a bathing suit. She gave me two on the count that she wants me to learn," Jenny nodded with big eyes as her blonde pigtails bounced. "My daddy said I'll make lots of friends. His friends are all animals cause thats what he can do. He talks to them and understands them," she said looking at Torri and nodding.

"Well Torri I like your name too. It was the same name my daddy's favorite mare's foal. Will you be my new friend? I like you," she said with a big smile.

[Torri]

Torri made a face with a small laugh. "Right.....my name is a horse name, that interesting...." she said with a small giggle. "But....uh....alright, i guess...... i'm all up for friends......" she said softly, pushing her hands from the pool edge and forcing herself to lie on her back.

"You go off and get changd, im not leaving here, but if you don't see me.....just ask if i'm there.....i most probably will...." she said with a small wink.

[Jenny]

"Oh but Torri it's not just any horse's name! Torri was a pretty show horse and she was my first friend. But then daddy had to give her to the lady in the other down cause she needed her for shows," Jenny said a little sadly. "Bur alright Torri! I'll be right back!" she said and skipped off to get her bathing suit.

Jenny liked Torri. She wondered why she seemed so sad though. That made her sad. Maybe a flower will make her happy.

[Torri]

Torri smiled a little, but only a little. Jenny seemed like a sweet girl, but Torri was beginning to wonder if sweet would turn out to be annoyance, after all, she had a short temper. "Nice story Jenny, and alright, see you in a bit." she sighed, diving into the water from her spot head first, making herself do a small flip in the water.

When she was sure that Jenny had left, Torri pulled a small face, diving in and out of the water slowly and frowning a little more than before. Trying to force herself into changing her appearence. It was hard for her, not having been able to controle her powers properly yet, and only being able to become either invisible or just a strange morphed appearence.

[Jenny]

Jenny had run back from the mansion dressed in a pink bathing suit with blue flowers on it. She brought her blue towel with her too. She smiled brightly as she walked back to the pool. Jenny was still a little nervous about making new friends but maybe it wouldn't be so bad. Torri seemed nice and it looked like she had one new friend already. That made her happier.

She looked around, not quite seeing anyone. "Torri? Are you here?" she called

[Torri]

Bringing her head up above the surface as she saw Jenny return, Torri waved a little, "Yea....i'm here. Don't worry." she said, looking down to make sure that she was still visible. "Just trying to work out this power of mine." she sighed gently, making her way over to the edge of the pool again.

"Nice swim suit by the way." she said, raising her head a little and smirking. It was so....girly, it was unreal. So....cute..... "Mine is pretty plain but, meh." she sighed gently, looking down at her green and black bikini.

[Jenny]

Jenny wrinkled her nose a bit and shook her head making her yellow pigtails whip around her face. "My momma bought it for me. I wanted the blue one. But she says it costs too much. I like your plain one much better," she said with a bit of a smile. "Is the pool really really deep? I'm not sure if I'm alright with deep water. It scares me a bit. Although horses love deep water, its fun to watch them swim. Am I talking too much? Momma and my brother William says I do and if I am I'm sorry I forget myself sometime and you can just tell me to be quiet and I will," Jenny said blushing a little. Her brother often told her how annoying she was because she never shut up and she did try honest. But it was hard when there is so much to say.

[Torri]

Torri smirked a little, "Not really deep no, not at the shallow end here, but if you go over the other side, even im too small for it, and im close to 6 foot." she said with a small laugh. She did crinkle her nose a little as Jenny kept talking. "You talk alot more than eme i will say." her voice very soft. "Try thinking to yourself, and if you appologise or ask if you speak to much, you end up just speaking more." she said with a small smirk, pushing herself back again into the middle of the pool . "In you come." she said invitingly, waving her arms around herself.

[Jenny]

Jenny blushed deeply and laid her towel down as well as taking off her flip flops. "Oh alright I'm sorry. I won't do that anymore," she said quietly and went to sit on the ledge of the pool. It was rather cold outside and she felt the warmth of the water. Winter was so depressing in most aspects but the heated pool made it nice to come outside. She lightly pulled herself into the water and smiled softly at the warmth. Jenny would be quiet now. Her new friend didn't seem to enjoy her constant chatter so she would be quiet. After all, she didn't want to make and lose a friend all in the same day.

She waded through the water and dunked herself under like she did whenever momma gave her a bath. Jenny came back and wiped the water from her eyes smiling shyly at Torri. "So what do I do?" she asked quietly.

[Torri]

Moving back toward her, Torri smiled gently, "Aye thats alright, just get used to the water first." she giggled, reaching her arms out toward her. "Now take my hands, and try and bring your legs up to your chest slowly." she said quietly, smiling a little at the girl. "One youve done that, push them to behind you, just keep them there, don't kick." she added.
