"Destiny. Destiny. Destiny, help us!" A little girls voice cried through the water. Destiny opened her mouth to call out to the girl, feeling desperate to get to her. However, water was quick to invade her mouth. "Please," the girl called.

"I'm trying, I'm trying," Destiny tried to say back. Then the voice started to fade away, although it had been distant to begin with. It was soon replaced by a different voice.

"How could you?" A boys voice demanded. "You promised, Destiny! You promised you would never leave us!"

"I'm sorry," Destiny tried to reply. "I'm sorry!" She squinted through the water, trying to find the owner of the voice. Somewhere, buried in her memory, she knew those voice. She just couldn't reach them! Then the boys voice vanished too. This time, it was replaced by two, much younger, voices.

"Dessy, where are you? It hurts! Owie," the two little girls sobbed. But they were already beginning to fade away.

"No, wait! I'll help you, just wait!" Destiny cried, but it cost her precious bubbles of air. As darkness began to appear, so did pain. It pulled at every little nook and cranny of her being and caused her to cry out in pain. "Am I dying," she thought. "Haven't I been here before? Have I died before? Or at least, nearly died? Probably..." That was when she heard a different voice, it sounded lighter and didn't cause her any pain at all. In fact, it took away her pain. It comforted her.

"It's okay now, Little Kitten. I'm here. You don't have to be afraid. Don't let your fears control you, Destiny. Pinkie promise..." The voice soothed gently.

"Katy," Destiny whispered. "Please help me. I need you, I need my Mummy..." As the darkness finally started to take over, Destiny felt it wrap itself easily around her body and start to drag her away.

Katy forced herself to keep swimming down until her fingertips brushed against the bottom of her pool. Once they did, she began to look wildly around for Destiny. She was aware that her time was running out, but at that moment that was the least of her worries. Finally her eyes landed on a dark shape laying on the bottom of the pool. Destiny. It had to be her. With her remaining strength, Katy swam towards the shape. The second she was close enough, she wrapped her arms around it and began to kick herself towards the surface.

Katy suddenly broke free of the deathly water and burst into the air, not exactly gracefully... Even though her lungs we screaming for her to stop and properly breath, Katy valiantly ignored them. She just had to get Destiny to the side first. She swam as hard as she possibly could until she reached her goal, then easily swung Destiny out of the pool. She was quick to follow her.

"Destiny!" Katy cried, facing Destiny upwards and patted her face. "Destiny, pleasewake up!" Tears streaked down her cheeks as she tried to revive her daughter. "Please..." Destiny still didn't move, she barely even breathre. "HELP!" Katy screamed desperately. "SOMEBODY HELP US!" Of course, nobody came. Since Katy had no neighbours it was impossible for anyone to hear her. She flung her head back towards the sky and began to scream curse words at God. Finally her head flopped over and leaded on top of Destiny's chest. "My poor, poor baby. I'm so so sorry this had to happen to you. You didn't deserve this, its not fair..." Just after these words left Katy's lips, she got the shock of her life! Destiny suddenly gasped desperately for air. As she did so, water started to fill up her mouth again. This forced Destiny to project herself up as she choked, coughing up water. Katy snapped into action and began to pat Destiny on the back, as she cried with relief. "Oh thank God!" She sobbed and held a now crying Destiny to her chest. "Thank God!"

"Katy," Destiny sobbed, finally managing to speak. "I thought I'd never find you!" Katy clutched Destiny tighter, now smiling. Her smile suddenly faltered and she pulled away, holding Destiny at arms length.

"Wait, what?" She cried, as she finally processed what Destiny had just said.
