Swim until you can't

Stretching her limbs, Gossamer prepared herself for the swimming competition. She could swim well enough though she wouldn't consider herself an expert by any means. Still, with her renewed focus on fight training she hoped the stamina she gained in that training would translate to swimming as well.

Gossy took her place near the rapids and waited for Kotori's instructions. Once they were given she shot her brother a grin and eased her way into the cool water. It was cold but in a way it was refreshing against the heat of the summer sun on her dark coat. Once the start signal was given she released the rock she'd been clinging to and began to paddle with strong, even strokes.
