Tabitha jolted as the other her plunged the ominous crimson dagger into her friend's gut, her brown eyes widening in horror. She rushed to the water made girl's aid as her double pulled back, the dagger still in her double's hand. She placed the Pan of Great Smiting +1 back into the Pouch of Hammerspace to free up her hands as she reached the large silver cross. The other her just watched, not interfering, a smug smile on the other's face. Untying the bindings, she freed the watery girl from the cross, taking her into her arms.

"Don't worry. I got you." Her voice cracked a bit as she spoke, Nymph looking up at her weakly. "Let's go home."

The fluid woman suddenly jerked out of her friend's arms, tumbling to the ground. Her face contorted to a look of utter agony. A speck of red shown in her stomach, rippling angrily. The red swelled, her belly growing with it, a scream bursting from her lips.

"Nymph?" Tears fell from her brown eyes, her body shaking.

Nymph continued to scream, her stomach stretching horrifically, the pulsating red mass within her growing ever larger. Soon, she had swelled to the point of an overinflated water balloon, threatening to pop.

"No," Tabitha mouthed in dismay as her friend exploded, Nymph's remains splattering across the lake surface. The brown eyed girl dropped to her knees, reaching down and touching one of the puddles created by her friend's death, her tears mixing into it.
