"A bad time for immobility"

This underwater part in the game Vios had been playing through hadn't had an air pocket in a long time, and his simulated lungs were intensely burning, needing air so badly his body was shivering. But, there it was: The end of the long tunnels he'd been swimming through. He bolted straight there, his swimming more akin to panicked flailing as his breath meter reached its last pixel and bubbles continually trickled away, and in just another second he'd finally-

BONG

Everything stopped; his swimming, his bubbles... But not the feeling of his need for air. Barely even managing to look around, he saw an error message had come up, marking that the game had crashed for whatever reason, and would close... If he could hit the confirmation button. But, he couldn't, he was stuck in place! He couldn't even squirm in discomfort as he perpetually stayed on the absolute edge of drowning, unable to inhale even if he wanted, the surface not even a foot away from him. It wasn't hopeless, he had specialized code that'd break him out of games in situations like this, but it'd take a few minutes to kick in. Until then, he had to just endure his desperate need for air, two methods of correcting it staring him in the face but out of reach, taunting him.

squirtlerocks07 and I did an RP based on this.

S: late one night, a Rhydon was on his PC, looking for something to play, he remembers that he downloaded this cool underwater game he got a while back, the rhydon hasnt touched it yet so he decided to spend his night playing it, using the mouse to hover over it. What he did forget was something else he installed just a few days ago

L: As the rhydon moves the mouse, that something notices, and fades into view on the screen while trying to not be too jarring about it - a porygon-z. "You're certainly up late tonight, huh? What's the occasion?"

S: "Whoa!" The rhydon was surprised to see the porygon-z but then he just laughs

"Almost forgot I installed you! Heh, I just wanted to play this new game that I keep forgetting to play, and considering im not even tired I firgured I was gonna do a gaming session. You're um, Vios right? Thats your name?"

L: "Yep, I'm Vios. Any chance you'd be cool with me joining in on that game? I could go right into it and help you out from inside."

S: "Oh, I forgot that was one of your features, I don't mind it...wait, wasnt another one of your features that you can pull in people into the computer? Ive always wanted to try that..."

L: "Ah, that'll be way more fun! Yep, just hold onto me, and I can bring you in and you can even go into the game yourself!" Vios reaches out of the monitor, his arm moving into the real world.

S: "No way, alright bet!"

with the rhydon excited, he grabs onto Vios' arm, he was a bit nervous but tried to not show that

L: "Alright, this might feel weird..." Vios moves back, and as the Rhydon begins to touch the monitor, they disappear from the physical world and reappear digitally inside the computer!

S: as the rhydon reappeared in the computer world now, he was completely speechless for a moment, before finally speaking

"Oh...my...word, it actually works! This is insane!"

he looks around for a good few moments too, still in awe

L: "Pretty cool in here, huh? Every computer's a little different, it never really gets old seeing what each one looks like inside."

There's a bunch of blocks around that seem to represent all the installed programs on the computer, and Vios floats over to one with the icon of the game the rhydon had been about to play. "Whenever you're ready, give this a couple taps as if you're clicking on it, and that'll open up the game."

S: "This is awesome! Im already loving this! Alright lets launch this game"

The rhydon heads over to the game icon and using his finger to tap on it a few times to open it up

L: A new window opens up with the game's title screen, at about the same height as the rhydon.

"And from here, you just jump on in!" Vios floats into the window, now appearing in the game.

S: "Seems easy enough"

the rhydon heads into the window as well and now he too appears in the game

"Whoa!! Awesome!"

L: "Now, let's get started... Looks like there'll be a lot of swimming we have to do, hopefully you enjoy that. I certainly do."

S: "Oh shoot..." the rhydon suddenly gets nervous

"I totally spaced out that this game has a lot of swimming in it... I can swim fine in real life, but I just dont really like it all that much, especially submerging, thats a big no no for me..."

L: "That might be a problem, I can't imagine we'll be getting far without diving... Well, let's just go through as much as we can until then, alright?"

S: "Alright... I guess... maybe going into this game wasnt the best idea..."

L: "I wouldn't blame you if you ended up wanting to leave..." Vios starts going through the game with the rhydon, hoping it'll be a while until diving is needed.

S: the rhydon was hoping the same thing, but he knows that ill probably happen pretty soon

L: Before long, the two come across a large area of water, swimming clearly being the only way forward. "At least you're sort of okay with swimming on the surface... Hopefully we're not going to have to dive here, can't tell yet." Vios floats himself into the water, swimming on the surface.

S: "Yeah, I'm ok with it being on the surface, but I can't do diving, so lets hope that"

The rhydon then slowly gets into the water himself and swims on the surface

L: They swim for a little while... Before coming to a wall, with an arrow pointing down into the water.

"Guess it's time to dive... Are you gonna be okay?"

S: "Aww no!! You've gotta be kidding me! This is gonna be so hard... I don't wanna leave, but diving...oh man... I'm nervous!"

L: "It'll be fine! Remember, whatever happens here, you won't get hurt or anything no matter what, you'll be back to normal as soon as you leave."

S: "I know that, but im still scared!"

L: "Then, um... Maybe there's some kind of treasure down there? Or maybe after it? There's gotta be some kind of reward for getting through."

S: "I mean yeah maybe, but I still dont know, its always scary for me to go underwater, thats like the one thing I'm afraid of"

L: "Hey, I get nervous about some parts of games too, but that never stops me. The best way is always just to get it over with, and once it's done it doesn't usually feel so bad. That might happen with this too!"

S: the rhydon sighs before looking down at the water below

"Maybe your right, I should just try and get it over with, even tho its gonna suck, I dont even think i can hold my breath all that long tho, and I should probably get goggles since maybe those will make me feel better"

L: "Not sure if this game has goggles, but you shouldn't need them..." Vios looks around for anywhere there might be goggles, and sure enough, a nearby platform floating on the surface has some! "Oh, look at that! Pretty convenient, that's probably normally just a decoration!"

S: "Ok, I think I feel a little bit better knowing I can wear goggles"

the rhydon swims over to the platform and grabs two pairs of goggles and hands one to Vios before putting the other one on, this one being a green color

"I figured you should have some too, so we can both have some on"

L: "May as well, sure." Vios puts on the ones that were given to him, which are blue. "Is you wearing those helping at all?"

S: "Yeah, I mean its helping me somewhat, I'm still nervous to go under but not as bad as before..."

L: "At least that's something... Do you want to at least try? Maybe it won't be as bad to be underwater as you're thinking."

S: "I mean what else can i do honestly, I guess ill have to just try then"

L: "Might be for the best to just get it over with, yeah. I'll be right here with you for it, I'll dive when you dive."

S: "Ok..."

but for a while, the rhydon couldnt bring himself to go underwater, he was too nervous

L: "...Maybe we should just do a countdown and then both dive at once? It's looking like we'll be here all night if I leave it up to you..."

S: "Ugh, ok ok fine...im sorry im just so nervous!"

L: "Okay, hopefully this works. 3, 2, 1, dive!" Vios takes a deep breath, then dives down underwater, hoping the rhydon will do the same.

S: after whining, the rhydon eventually takes a deep breath of his own and finally dives underwater too! He was immediately really scared tho

L: Vios notices that fear straight away, and holds one of the rhydon's hands while smiling at him as breath meters appear for both of them. "Itbl's okblay, noblthiblng's goblnna hblurt yoblu..."

S: The rhydon's breath meter was going down quicker then Vios', he tries to smile back and then uses his free hand to pinch his nose shut

"I-i dblont likble thblis! I hblate nblot brbleathing!"

L: "Ibl knblow thblis sublcks, bublt Ibl doblubt thblerebl's scbluba geblar ibln thblis gablme... Tablke soblme tiblme tblo trbly tblo geblt usbled tblo iblt."

S: the rhydon nods, trying his best to get used to being submerged, it was hard for him, but he gave Vios a hug to hopefully help him out, and that seems to work little by little

L: Vios hugs them back, watching them to make sure they don't panic, and glancing up at their breath meter every now and then as well.

S: The rhydon's breath meter was almost halfway empty already, but he was able to stay calm enough to not totally panic even when his face is turning a bit red

"Oblk, im rbleady noblw..."

L: "Goblod... Webl'd bebltteblr geblt aiblr fiblrst, yoblu're geblttiblng abl biblt loblw." While Vios' own meter is only down by about a quarter, he heads up to the surface.

S: with a nod, the rhydon heads up to the surface too, gasping a bit for air as his meter refills

L: Vios gasps as he surfaces, his breath meter filling back up. "Okay, once we go back down, we're gonna finally get going and see where the path ahead leads, alright?"

S: "Ok, im not gonna get scared this time, im gonna actually do this!"

L: "Yep, don't let this game beat you! 3, 2, 1, dive!" Vios dives back underwater.

S: with almost no hesitation, the Rhydon holds his breath and dives back underwater too, feeling much better this time around

L: Happy the rhydon's so much more brave this time, Vios continues swimming deeper. There's an opening into a tunnel visible in the wall below.

S: pinching his nose shut, the rhydon follows Vios, hes never played this game before so he just has to trust that everything leads to the exit

L: Being clueless about where to go himself, Vios swims into the tunnel, keeping a lookout for anything indicating where else to go.

S: the rhydon follows

"I-i hblope wble dblont gblet loblst"

L: "Wble shbloulbld ble fiblne, Ibl doblubt itbl'll ble coblmplblicablted thblis eablrly obln..." The tunnel does seem fairly simple, at least for now.

S: the rhydon tries to stay calm but is slowly getting worried, bubbling out some air as his face is turning red, his breath meter going down a bit faster

L: Vios is beginning to blush a little too... Even worse, up ahead the tunnel splits in two directions, with no clear direction on where to go!

"Mmh, noblt goblod..." He looks down each path, but neither seems better.

S: "Oblh cblome oblbn! Tblhis I exblactly whblat i wblas afrblaid oblf! Whblat dblo wble dblo nblow?? I dblont knblow whblere tblo gblo!"

L: "Ibl'd sably wble shbloulbld spblit ublp, bublt yoblu'd neblver ble okblay wiblth thblat... Thblis wably Ibl gubless." Vios picks one of the paths at random.

S: "Ybleah heblck nblo, im stblaying wiblth yblou"

the rhydon follows, his face growing more red as his breath meter is now half empty

L: Vios is only a little better off, his breath meter just above half. There's still no clear way to see if this was the right tunnel, and Vios just hopes for the best.

S: The rhydon was hoping for the best too, even tho he was whimpering in fear in worry its gonna be a dead end

L: They come around another turn, and... Dead end. With a collectible at least, but no air to be found.

"Mmm! Crblap, gblo bablck qublick!"

S: "Nblooo!!! I dblo nblot wblanna dblrown!!"

the rhydon quickly turns around to swim back, his face now blue and his breath meter dangerously getting low now

L: Vios follows them, going a bit blue himself with only about a third left in his breath meter. "Thbl-thblis ibls goblnna ble clblose..."

S: "I-i dblidnt wblanna publsh mblyself!!!"

the rhydon's whole face is fully blue, covering his mouth as he keeps swimming forward

L: "Thbl-thblis'lbl prblobably hblappblen abl loblt wiblth thblis gablme!" Vios covers his mouth as well, though is still losing bubbles.

S: "Thblen I r-rbleally dblont likble thblis thblen!"

the rhydon keeps losing bubbles himself, trying to get back to where they were before its too late

L: The two get back to where the path split, and Vios turns to go down the way that leads back outside. "N-neblarlbly thblere..."

@ lolboy4

S: the rhydon follows, now his face turning purple and his breath meter giving a warning beep thats getting very low, which causes the rhydon to whine even more

L: The light from outside is starting to be visible... Vios swims as fast as he can while his own breath meter is getting extremely low, letting out a warning beep as well.

S: "Oblh dblear arceblus plblease lblet ubls mablke iblt ibln tblime!"

they keep going and going, bubbles constantly leaking from the rhydon despite his best efforts, he hopes air will arrive soon enough

L: "Abl feblw moblre seblconblds!" Vios gets out of the tunnel, and turns to start going for the surface, though it's still a bit of distance.

S: "I... cblant...hblold iblt...anbly loblnger!!!"

a lot of bubbles escape the rhydon as his face is fully purple now, swimming up t the surface, his breath meter only a few moments away from running out

L: Just before the two could finally reach the surface, they're suddenly stopped in place as an error sound plays and a message box comes up, signifying the game crashed for whatever reason... But they both still feel their need for air!

"Whbl-whblat thble... Obl-oblh nblo, webl're goblnna ble stbluck noblw!"

S: "Hbluh?!?! Hhbley!! W-whbly cablnt I mblove!? Whblats gbloing oblbn?!"

the rhydon tries his best to look around, but it was very hard to do, he manages to see the message box tho

"...d-dibld thble gablme jblust crblash?!?!"

L: "Webl're noblt goblnna drblown noblw, bublt... Wble cabln't brbleatblhe unbltil thble gablme clblosebls, anbld iblt wobln't unbltil wble hblit thble bublttobln obln thblat meblssablge, anbld wble cabln't beblcaublse wble cabln't moblve!"

S: "Sblo whblat yblour sblaying ibls...wblere toblally scblrewed!!! Ablhhhh!!!"

the rhydon panics as he realizes the situation they are now in

"I wblanna bblreathe!!! Whblat dblo wble dblo nblow?!"

suddenly, out in the real world, a Kirlia was peaking in to the Rhydon's room

Kirlia - "Rhydon...you awake? I had a nightmare..."

Rhydon - "Whblat thble?? Hbley! Thblat soublnds likble mbly liblttle sisblter Kiblrlia!!"

L: "Oblh, shble cabln hblelp ubls!" Vios hopes that the kirlia will be able to hear as he yells. "Kiblrlibla! Iblf yoblu cabln hblear ubls, clblick thblat bublttobln ibln thble meblssablge boblx!"

S: "Kblirlia!!! Iblm ovbler hblere!!! Obln thble compbluter screblen!!!"

Kirlia - "Huh?" She goes over to the computer and was shocked to see her big brother was in there

"Rhydon!? What the heck are you doing in there?? And whos that in there with you?'

Rhydon - "Ibll exblplain lablter! Jblust plblease cliblck thble bubltton! I nbleed ablir!"

L: "Wble cabln't geblt iblt oublrseblves, anbld itbl's thble onbly wably oublt riblght noblw! Ibl'm abl frblienbld, dobln't woblrry!"

S: Kirlia - "Ummm...uhhh ok ok!"

the Kirlia quickly jumps onto the rhydon's desk and uses the mouse to click on the button on the message box

L: The game closes, freeing Vios and the rhydon back into the main part of the computer. Vios gasps, panting heavily and setting himself down on the digital space's floor to recover. "Th-thanks... We'd have been there a few more minutes without that..."

S: the rhydon gasps heavily too, recovering on the floor

Rhydon - "Y-yeah, thanks sis..."

Kirlia - "Your welcome, i think...now can someone please explain whats going on??"

Rhydon - "I will, as soon as I get out of here"

L: "R-right, um... Just will yourself to leave, and you'll pop back out into the real world. I can't really come with you, the most I can do is reach out like I did earlier."

S: "Ooook?"

the rhydon closes his eyes and thinks real hard on leaving and surprisingly enough, he ends up popping out back into the real world

"Huh, that easy... well ive never going into that underwater game again, that was a nightmare"

Kirlia - "What???"

Rhydon - "Again ill explain to you later, right now I just wanna get some sleep, im gonna shut down my computer now Vios, so ill catch you later"

@ lolboy4

L: "Alright, see you tomorrow. Maybe bring Kirlia here when you start trying to explain this to her, it should go a bit easier if I help out."

S: "Right got it, ok then"

and so the rhydon turns his PC off and heads over to his bed to sleep. The Kirlia gets into bed a few feet beside him because of the nightmare she had and soon the two quickly drift off to sleep
