After a morning of greetings, catching ups, and story telling, Kiran was ready for a little relaxation. Almost unconsciously, she made her way to the lake. Kiran was careful not to get too close to the edge, though. Water Nymphs in the lake at Camp Half Blood were notorious for pulling campers into the lake. Whether it be for flirting purposes or fun. Kiran started to hum a tune. It was slow and peaceful. She let her voice carry in the wind. Closing her eyes, Kiran walked closer to the edge of the lake. The naiads rose to the surface, but not for any bad intention. They listened to the daughter of Apollo's song. Soothing and calm. Kiran let the strawberry scented wind glide through her hair and sat on the edge of the lake, dipping her legs into the water.
Kiran was use to singing in front of a crowd. It was her job as the Apollo cabin's counselor to lead the camp fire songs. Though, usually there were others singing with her. Kiran thoughts started to wander off, and soon her voice stopped producing sound. The naiads poked her, encouraging her to continue her melody, but Kiran was too busy of thoughts of what's to come. This summer was going to be wonderful, she told herself.
Eventually, the naiads grew tired of waiting for Kiran to come out of her own world, so they took the initiative. Kiran's rude awakening was into he form of cold water. The naiads had yanked her by the legs into the lake. Startled, Kiran let out a yelp, which only made things worse. Water filled Kiran's lungs as the naiads pulled her further underwater. Kiran gathered her bearings and kicks the water nymphs off of her legs. With her lungs screaming for air, Kiran kicked swiftly to the surface. Once reaching the top, Kiran gasped for the oxygen her body so desperately needed.She the made her way to land, coughing the entire way. Kiran drug her tired body onto the surface, now drenched. She sat there, trying to regain her breath, and expel the water in her lungs.
