 Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna
So wait, there was another race of all four of them before he and Adi were to race on their own? Benny hadn’t made the original plans but it looked like he was being held to it. Time to see if one of the two previous winners, one from each team, continued their luck or if someone new hit the wall of the pool first. Maybe they hadn’t just won because of their tallness or mermaid tall after all. Or maybe the tallness rule applied to him as well as mentioned earlier.
“Right…” he agreed to Adi’s gloating over the girls. “Going to try,” Benny added, getting into position with the rest of them awaiting the countdown. Once the boyfriend hit three, the dragon kicked off and dove underneath the water, eventually coming up a distance away and beginning his strokes and kicks across the pool in earnest. He lost track of his position, simply swimming along, and getting surprised when his outstretched hand came upon the awaiting edge. The older boy suddenly righting himself to avoid the rest of him hitting it.
And then he turned as he cleared his eyes of water only to spot the other three coming up behind him.
He had won?!
