The pool's closing time rolled around while this buizel was busy swimming laps on the bottom, seeing how many he could do without surfacing, not noticing that everyone else had left. The pool's owner didn't notice him down there, and closed the cover, inadvertently trapping the poor buizel! He was particularly determined in this round of his self-imposed challenge, pushing himself to such a degree that he only had a few seconds of breath left before finally heading up, and finally realizing his situation. It's been a couple minutes since then, and all the buizel can do now is weakly pat the cover while panting pool water... Being a water type, he can hold on a long time like this, but will it be long enough to be rescued?
*as this buizal was doing laps on the bottom, just a few minutes before the pool closes... A Wartortle thought it would be sneaky to climb into the pool before it closed, everyone else already gone...they took a few deep breathes and dove underwater, swimming down to the bottom unaware of the buizal there yet*

The buizel doesn't immediately notice them either, swimming to one end of the pool before turning around and pushing off. Then, they notice the wartortle, and give them a wave.

Deciding to stay with the wartortle, the buizel smiles and slows down a little so they can keep up. It's clear he's in a bit of need for air, blushing some, but he doesn't seem to mind.

For the next while, the two swim together, and although the buizel gradually has a greater need to breathe, he still keeps on swimming laps, pushing himself.

Eventually, closing time arrives, and the pool's owner checks if anyone is around. Not noticing the buizel and wartortle, he sets the cover to start closing and goes off to work on something else. Even now, the buizel keeps swimming back and forth, oblivious to the pool's cover slowly spreading across the surface.

A while longer passes as the buizel keeps swimming. With his face fully red and starting to go purple, it's clear he should be at least trying to surface, but he just keeps swimming laps regardless.

The buizel decides to try spending a bit of his already low breath to call out, hoping that someone above the surface will hear him... But no one seems to be coming. He covers his mouth with both hands again, looking at the wartortle and whimpering helplessly.

*the wartortle has a bit more air then the buizel...deciding to be a good friend they wrap their little arms around the whimpering buizel, putting their hands away from their mouth and kisses his lips, sharing some air with them*

While he's briefly embarrassed by the kiss, the buizel quickly realizes it's to share air, and he takes in as much as the wartortle is willing to give, hugging them back to try to calm down.

The buizel's face is back to being fully red as well, though bubbles also trickle from his lips. He starts swimming around just under the cover, looking for some way to get out.

All the fear he's going through is making the buizel use up his air faster than normal, and he soon starts getting a purple blush again, whining from how badly he needs to breathe.

*the wartortle looks over at the buizel and almost gasps in shock at the sight of their faces purple...they quickly swim over to him and gives them a big hug, kissing their lips again to try and get a bit more air into them, but it's hardly any so the kiss is more of just trying to stay calm*

Even without getting much air from it, the buizel finds that the kiss is at least helping him calm down a little. With nothing else he can really do, he hugs the wartortle back and keeps the kiss going.

The buizel is perfectly fine with how the kiss is going, glad to have at least a little distraction from his burning lungs. He wimpers as his face starts turning blue...

As his eyes start to roll back as he nears his limit, the buizel hears a whirring sound... The cover is opening! Letting go of the wartortle, he immediately starts scrambling for the opening, his swimming frantic and somewhat uncoordinated.

The buizel gasps and coughs, shutting his eyes, when he feels something grab him and lift him from the water. The owner of the pool has returned. "I-I'm so sorry, I didn't realize you guys were down there!" They help the wartortle out of the water as well.

The buizel smiles at the wartortle and starts walking out of the building with them. The owner sighs in relief that the two likely won't be doing anything more to them.
