Short Story of First Seeing Water:
River Splash was abandoned as a young dragon. His parents had died in an accident, but that's a whole 'nother story. Anyhow, I believe River Splash will be taking the liberty of telling his own story, as he's a wonderful storyteller...

Short Story of First Seeing Water:

(Umi's POV)

I didn't really know what it was, when I first saw the stuff. Ya' know, water. It was strange, wet and clear. I was only a baby, but I remember pretty well. The little cove my parents and I lived in flooded during a rainstorm, and they were swept away from me. I was drowning, my tiny wings waterlogged. I remember the feeling of my lungs filling up with fluid before I blacked out.

The next thing I know, a human child had picked me up and was carrying me to safety, rubbing me with a warm towel. I coughed up water and she held me close to her chest whilst I shivered. I went down into the darkness again. After I woke up, I was living with this person. She hasn't forced me into water at all, and I appreciate that.

(River Splash takes over)
I was young, as you know, and was still figuring out the world. I knew what light was, what pain was, and what food was. I never knew love, or hate. Nor water for that matter. I had wandered out of the cave I had been living in, where I last was before my parents dissapeared. I saw a lovely blue river, but I didn't know what it was. I scampered over, and peered down. I saw some fish swimmingin it, and the liquid looked solid. Of course, I didn't know it was liquid. I tentatively reached out, and touched it. It was cold, and I wasn't sure if it would hold my weight. I looked over my shoulder, and saw a water skipper. I also saw a heron swoop down, and scoop up a fish. If a large heron could enter it, and come out safely, I figured, so could I. Of course, my logic wasn't the best back then, and I eagerly rushed into the water.

As I put my feet in the water, I found it wouldn't hold my weight. I couldn't find a foothold in time, and I sank to the bottom of the rushing river. Just as my senses had begun to gade away, the ever-constant current supported me, and slowly pushed me back up. I was at the top, and, sputtering, I saw a log. I kicked with all my might, until I reached the log, and I climbed on. Shifting ad cold, I hugged the log as tightly as I could, until it lodged upon a rock. As soon as I was sure the log was secure, I shakily climed to the shore.

As I returned to solid land, I had experienced another thing: water. And the river supported me and helped me when I fell unknowingly into it's clutches. I decided to name myself after the river, honoring it for as long as I lived. My name then became River Splash.
