Cloud held on tight and hit the water with more of a smack then a splash. It sounded like it was going to sting, and it did. Dex just shook his head with his hoof on his forehead.

Tor come out of the water laughing and splashing towards the edge of the pool with an. "Ow, ow, ow." Between laughs. "Wing cramp." She also managed to say.

"Cloud surfaced and was silent at first. Then, not long after, came a yell as the stinging hit the air cloud swam himself carefully to the edge of the pool. Dex was laughing on the inside and rolling around on the outside.

Tor pulled herself out of the water and made her way over to Mith. "Could you help a pony out, please Mith." She asked, still laughing. Mith rolled her eyes and took Tor's wing, pulling it and massaging her shoulder blade and back.

Cloud was smiling, but still stung too much such that even laughing hurt. Dex walked over to where he'd plopped himself over on the edge of the pool and poked his shoulder, "Ouch! Please don't." Cloud said and Dex only laughed more.

Ever was also giggling now and concentrating on her gems was impossible, so she gently lifted them out of the water and wrapped them in her towel. "That's better." Tornado said as the pain left the base of her wing.

"I didn't know you know massage therapy." Dex said to Mith, since Cloud was out for the count.

"I don't." Mith said. "But everypony in my family knows how to rub away a sure muscle. It's kind of traditional."

"That makes sense." Dex said, nodding his head. Cloud had managed to get to his hoofs and stood there shaking, from both the cold and the stinging pain, "I think that's enough pool for today." He said with a smile and walked over to his towel.

"I agree." Tor said. "Before it gets too rough." She laughed. Mith got Tornado's towel for her and Ever sat waiting as the ponies dried off.

Once Cloud was dry, a process that took a second on his sore side, he flipped the towel over his back and looked to the group, "So what next?" Dex was still drying off, but only because he liked to be really dry.

"I don't know about you guys, but napping the rest of the day away sounds really appealing right now." Tor told them.

"What about you, Ever, what will you do?" Cloud said for Dex who still had the towel over his face but her ears perked up anyway.

"I don't have any plans." Ever told him. "I suppose Mith and I will catch up on some reading in our rooms. It's what we usually do over weekends."

"Oh, ok." Dex said a little downhearted and looked over to Cloud, "Looks like it's just the two of us." He said and Cloud nodded. "You guys will check on Daring, right? Make sure she's still doing alright?" Cloud asked them, just to make sure.

"Sure, I'll check up on her, no problem." Tor said getting their things together. "Then we'll see you after school tomorrow?"

"See you then." Cloud said with a satisfied grin as he walked out the pool area.
OOC: This is an outdoor pool, yes? I don't know why but we never specified and I've always based my post on a way that would match both situations. What I'm doing next requires one or the other, though.

ooc: It's an outdoor pool. We did have a race to the gate so it makes sense. The three girls waved their goodbyes and headed back towards their dorms.

OOC: Alright.
BIC: Cloud and Dex did the same and parted ways from the girls, not talking as they made their way to the boys dorms. High atop one of the buildings, Clay was watching the group quietly. He looked to Dex and Cloud as they approached and walked to the stairs down to meet them part way.

"That was fun wasn't it?" Tor asked as the girls walked. "I did have fun." Ever agreed. "Me too." Mith added. "How was your concentration Ever?" Tor asked. "It's was alright I guess." "I don't know, you look more distracted than usual." "I'm not sure what you mean, I did my best." Ever said, although her cheeks did blush slightly. "Anyway, I'm going to head over to Daring. I'll see you in a bit." Tor said turning towards the other side of the dorms.

Clay was waiting in the shadow of the boys dorm. Dex and Cloud both recognized him as they approached and almost walked past him until he spoke up, "Guys. Wait a second." He said quickly and Cloud and Dex both stopped. Cloud sighed heavily while Dex otherwise retained his composure. "Yes?" Cloud said and at first Clay was quiet. "Umm, I just wanted to apologize. I ruined your fun at the pool." Clay said, his haughty demeanor from earlier all but gone. "It's Daring you need to apologize to." Clay said sternly, though he wasn't yelling or anything, "You really upset her earlier." "I know. I watched you guys after I left..." Clay was and sat down, "How should I apologize?" He asked, not sure if she'd even listen after his behavior. Cloud was about to speak up but Dex put his hoof over Clouds mouth, "I think a traditional apology is a great way to start out. You'll have to see if she forgives you after that." He said and Cloud pulled Dexs hoof away. "I don't know what you were thinking in the first place." Cloud said and stamped his hoof. "I just..." Clay started and thought about it before continuing, "I thought she was joking around about being an adventurer. A lot of ponies do. I take the job seriously and practice all the time, as much and as far as my situation allows me to. I didn't think she was serious and I wasn't expecting her to have already been on an adventure like me. I thought she was just a book worm or something." "Cloud here is a book worm. Daring is the real deal." Dex said gesturing to Cloud, "Anyway, there's not much we can do to help you right now. And I wouldn't recommend talking with her soon. Maybe tonight or tomorrow would be safer. She seemed really down." Dex finished. "We've got to go to my room." Cloud said and started walking away, "Got stuff to do." He said, still a little mad at Clay and not wanting to talk anymore. "What was your name again?" Dex asked, figuring he'd give the pony at least that. "Clay. Clay Harming, though my friends call me Charming." Clay said with a grin though it wasn't very convincing as he was clearly still thinking and a little saddened, "Alright, Clay, I'll see you around campus. Try not to pull stunts like earlier, alright?" Dex said and followed Cloud leaving Clay alone in the shadow of the building.

The next morning there was an assembly where the headmaster had an announcement to make. "It's time again for our annual school dance and we'll be having it at he end of the week." She told the school. "I hope everypony will be there and have loads of fun. And remember to behave." "A school dance? Awesome!" Tornado said. "It's not really for us." Mith told Tor. "What? But Ever loves to dance?" "We're not the right kind of ponies for such an event." Ever explained. "And nopony ever asks us to go. But don't let us stop you from going Tor, I'm sure it'll be fun for you."

"Excited?" Cloud asked Dex, elbowing him in the side suggestively. "I don't know what you're taking about." Dex said and turn to Cloud, "Why? You planning in asking Somepony?" "No. I'd go with Daring I suppose, but only if she's planning to go. She's the only one that really knows my past that I would ask."

"So what if somepony asks you?" Tornado asked Ever and Mith later that day between classes. "Would you go then?" "I don't know." Ever said honestly. "Posh and Ritz aren't the only ponies that treats us differently. Anypony that asks us would pretty much be painting a target on themselves." "But that was before I got here." Tor said. "Nopony is going mess with you now."

Cloud and Dex weren't the kind of guys to attract attention, and in class Clay wasn't either. They didn't really talk abotu the dance after the school announcement and were otherwise ignored by the guys and girls alike.

"You'll at least think about going?" Tor asked her friends after school. "We'll think about thinking about it." Mith answered. "Who will you go with Tor?" Ever asked her to get her attention of them. "I don't know." She answered unconvincingly. "Maybe somepony will ask me, but I'm pretty picky about these things. I have to get to practice, see you afterwards!" She said and flew away. Ever and Mith made their way to the tree rolling their eyes.

Cloud was already waiting at the Tree and Dex was on his way but hadn't shown up yet. Cloud was reading his book and didn't notice the girls yet.

Daring showed up before the others did. "Hay Clouth." She said in a muffle as she was carrying a book in her mouth. She spat it out next to Cloud and sat down. "You wouldn't happen to know if there are any caves near town that wouldn't be on any map would you?"
