Gallus turned over as he felt something warm surround him, his shirt seemed to cling to him from just the back side for some reason and his boxers felt damp. Was it that hot in his room? He took a deep breath and was surprised to get large whiff of what smell sort of like pool water but not quite. Did Sandbar go to the pool and forget to shower or something? Wait that can't be right, he's off on some hiking trip with professor Fluttershy. Him, Silverstream and Yona. So that's out. "What am I smelling right now?"

Then the sounds seem to slowly echo through his senses. It sounded like water dropped nearby. Rain? But he knew he shut the window and it wasn't supposed to rain today. Either way, something felt off. His bed was not there. "Am I on the floor?" There was no carpet though. Almost felt like concrete or something like it.

Finally, feeling enough oddities beginning to poke at his mind, he opened his eyes. What he saw made absolutely no sense.
He was staring up at a sky blue ceiling. Very different from the pale white he went to sleep under. Turning his head slightly, Gallus stared over at the room he absolutely did not fall asleep in last night.

He was surrounded by a few inches of water, the room itself looking like someone had sectioned off a bit of a waterpark. There was a small slide and a shower head dripping water. The walls were white and the room seemed a bit small but he could see a lazy river with a few tubes floating past nearby that extended well beyond the area.

Gallus felt his heart leap. "Where the heck am I?!"

He sat up, feeling some of the water drip down the back of his head and back. "Hello?" He called out. "Is anyone here?"

Slowly rising to his paws, Gallus ran his talons slowly over his night shirt, attempting to whip some of the water out of it. He knew he couldn't be dreaming. He wouldn't feel water like this if he was. Though it was super warm. Almost like being in a bath. Not to mention, there were no hot female gryphons in bikinis anywhere to be seen.

But also he knew he went to sleep in his room. There is no way he sleep walked either. Surely someone would have stopped him. The early spring air would have been enough of a shock to his system if he did manage to walk out of the dorms. So maybe some teleportation magic gone wrong? Maybe some crazy magic came and swept him off his feet while he slept?

It would explain the fact that he had never seen this strange water park before. Either way though, there had to be someone else around who could maybe help him. Though explaining how he got in might be tricky.

Either way, standing there dripping water wasn't going to do him any favors. Gallus glanced back over at the lazy river and slowly walked over to it. He could see he was going to have to wade through it as there wasn't enough room to walk along side it. Gallus wasn't a fan of walking around it wet clothes but at least it was just his boxers and night shirt.

After thinking for a moment, he took off his shirt, choosing to carry it instead. He carefully jumped into the lazy river, glad to find the water just as warm and began to follow it. As he slowly made his way down it, he could hear the distant sounds of music. It was like a weird radio sound though. He couldn't make out what was being played only that it was in deed music. It was relaxing in a way if a bit off putting.

After wading down the lazy river for a bit, the tunnel like system opened up to another section of this strange water park. There were windows for this one letting in some weird pink light and a long, deep swimming pool. There was also a door leading somewhere as well. He could continue to follow the lazy river forward but this way seemed more promising.

Gallus got out of the river and slowly made his way over to the windows. His heart sank as he neared. What he had hoped to see was a land mark. Something to help tell him where he was. What he instead found was pink florescent lights staring back at him. These windows weren't real, just some weird esthetic choice. The walls were light brown as well, so the change up was appreciated but it still felt like he should be able to grasp where he was soon. Was he underground or something?

That would explain the fact he hadn't seen a single window yet. Just weird lighting.

Walking over to the door, he opened it to find another section of the water park. This one had marble looking walls with waterfalls of various shapes and sizes running from sections coming out of the walls. The water was about knee deep and was constantly moving about.

But what really caught Gallus' gaze was the sight of another creature. Specifically, Smolder.

She was standing underneath one of the waterfalls, her night shirt clinging to her body as she let the water run off of her. Her eyes closes as she dunked her head beneath the flow. Gallus gulped in some air as he watched her figure come into view. Her shirt now hugging her breasts and her tail lifting up just slightly to show her soaked panties. Her ass coming into view briefly.

Feeling a certain member downstairs begin to stir, Gallus quickly covered his lower half with his shirt as he quickly called out. "S-Smolder?"

The Dragon seemed to jump slightly at the name call, her eyes opening as she glanced back. She blinked and quickly jumped out of the waterfall. "Wha... Gallus? You're here too?!"

She quickly waded over, she looked like she about to hug him as she got near but decided against it last minute, instead holding her arms out for a second before putting them at her side. "I um... I was starting to think I was compactly alone here. I was hoping maybe this was all just a stupid nightmare and was trying to wake up." She scratched the back of her head. "Safe to say I am not dreaming. I don't usually have dreams about you... Well not like this anyways."

Gallus smirked. "Oh, am I hotter in those crazy dreams?"

Smolder rolled her eyes. "Lets put a pin in that for now." She glanced around before locking eyes with him. "How did you get here?"

Gallus crossed his arms. "I woke up here. I've been wandering around for a bit and I have no idea how I got here. All I can guess is that we may be underground and that we are very much alone right now. I haven't seen any sign of anyone being here despite the warm water and lights."

Smolder nodded. "Yeah, I have been here for at least an hour since I woke up. I was hoping it was one of those dreams that seems long but actually isn't. But nope, just been wandering aimlessly. This room is the first room I woke up in. Somehow I ended up back here. Feels like you can get lost around here if you aren't careful."

Gallus glanced over at the nearby hallway. There was water up to knee height and it curved down towards who knows where. "Lets head that direction and if you see anything that looks different, we can head down that way."

Smolder quickly strode forward. "Right, I'll lead."

As the two began to slowly make their way, Gallus did his best not to glance down. The way Smolders ass could be seen just as her tail swung back and forth. Her wet panties leaving little to the imagination. Took everything he had to keep looking forward.

As the two past by some more windows that just turned out to be more yellow lights, Gallus found an odd thought enter his mind. "Why am I so horny anyways? I mean, I've always looked at Smolder as good friend sure. Maybe had a wet dream or two about her... But now I can't seem to look away. She just seems more... Attractive than before. Am I loosing my mind? Or is it just the situation I am in? Either way, gotta focus on getting out us of here."

His eyes drifted downwards again. "But damn that wonderful ass though..."

Smolder suddenly stopped as the two reached a dead end. Well not really a dead end. The floor slopped downwards into an under water tunnel. Smolder tried to bend down to see as far as it went but was unsuccessful.

"What kind of crazy waterpark is this anyways?" She said with a groan.

"Been asking myself that same question for some time now. It feels bizarre. Almost like we are in another world?"

Smolder chuckled. "That might be pushing it just a bit. We probably just stumbled across a waterpark made by the hypogryphs. Those crazy creatures can transform into fish at will after all."

Gallus cocked his head slightly. "I guess that makes sense. Its the best theory I can think of anyways. Though it doesn't explain the weird design so far."

Smolder stood up straight. "Well, I know I haven't been down this way yet. So this is the way I guess we will go." She then proceeded to slowly strip off her shirt, causing Gallus' face to go beat red.

"What... Why are you taking off your shirt?!"

Smolder glanced back with an eyebrow raised as she stopped half way. "Because its only gonna cause some drag and I don't know how far back it goes. I need to be as aerodynamic as possible. Besides, we haven't seen a soul since we got here. Who cares if I show a bit more scales than usual?"

"I might." Gallus muttered, feeling his bird of prey push against his boxers again.

Smolder smirked. "We are all friends here. So don't worry about it."

With that, she took it the rest of the way off. Her breasts bouncing with the freedom and Gallus feeling something else begging for freedom in the process. She dropped the shirt and stretched her arms out.

"Ah, much better. Hate it when my shirt clings to me like that."

She then quickly dove forward, splashing back into some deep water. She turned to look at him. "Watch the entrance. I'll motion for you to follow if I see a way forward."

Gallus nodded, thankful his shirt was still blocking her view of his lower half. She then dived down, quickly swimming into the tunnel. Gallus took a deep breath and let out slowly before jumping in. He then held his breath and dove beneath the surface.

He could now see the tunnel thankfully didn't go too far. Smolder was already motioning for him to follow. He glanced down at his shirt before inwardly sighing and letting it go. He then pushed off and swam down the tunnel. The sounds of the music and water splashing vanishing almost seemed alien after hearing it for so long. Now it was just him and his thoughts as he swam down the blue tunnel.

Again his eyes drifted over Smolder's body. The way she casually kicked forward, her strong arms, those lovely legs. That incredible ass. It was just all so enticing. Again though, he never really thought about it all that much. So why now? But even as that thought entered his mind, his horniness seemed to take over that. She just just so damn hot. He need to... No. Not unless she felt the same way... But what if she did?

That Dragon body. So perky yet strong. The way her arms managed to easily propel her forward. Those legs and feet moving with grace. Gallus couldn't stop staring. It was like he was looking at her with new eyes somehow.

He watched her stop on the end and get out into a new room, her ass coming into view for just a second caused him to pause. Then he remembered air was sort of important and kept moving.

Eventually, he reached the other side and breached out of the water, gasping in some much needed air. Smolder was next to the edge, holding out her claw. Gallus felt his face light up again as he took it, doing his very best not to stare at her very perky but luscious B-Cup breasts.

Instead he did his best to focus on the room around them. It was another pool room, this one looking far different than the others. This one had a star filled night sky painted at the top with glowing stars as lights. The walls were purple and black.
There was a large pool with shower heads spouting water around it.

Soft music could be heard playing nearby but somehow also far away. Gallus couldn't tell where exactly the music was coming from. Smolder looked around but could not see a way forward immediately.

She instead went over and ran a hand under one of the shower heads. "Whoa, this water is super hot. Like this feels incredible." She stepped into a pool that went up to her chest and stood under the shower head. "Ahh, now this is something."

Gallus began to slowly walk around, looking hard at the walls. "Shouldn't we be looking for a way forward?" He was also trying to keep his eyes off of the Dragon that was now making slight moaning noises.

"Oh... I mean sure... But we gotta take at least some advantage of this."

She got up from the shower head and walked over to the edge of the pool. "Come on, you've been looking super tense since we met up. Getting worked up isn't gonna help us get out of here either."

He looked over at her, her breasts hidden behind the edge but her ass was clearly seen behind her. She looked so damn hot just staring at him like that. He shook his head.

Gallus glanced back, clenching his talons as he did so. "You aren't exactly helping though." He felt his heart beat quicken as he stared down at her. He just felt so damn hard. "Seriously, when did you become so... So..."

"Chill?"

"SMOKING HOT."

A silence rung out aside from the flowing water and music. Gallus felt like his face had gone full tomato red. His breathing was low and shallow. Seriously, he couldn't remember the last time he had ever felt so damn pent up.

Smolder slowly broke out in a grin. "So I am not the only one. Good to know."

"Huh?"

Smolder slowly sauntered out of the pool, stepping over and slowly revealing her body to him. She then went over next to one of the shower heads that was connected to the wall, over a much more shallow pool. She slowly pulled down her panties, locking eyes with him as she did so. Flicking them off to the side and lifting her tail a bit. "I've been feeling the need to get a certain scratch itched since I got here." She pent down, exposing herself completely to him. "Don't know what it is but I haven't been this horny in a long time. What do you say you help me fix both our problems?"

Gallus practically tore the boxers from his body as his spear went to full length. He slowly walked over soon standing over Smolder as she placed her hands against the wall. The shower was slowly cascading water over her body. Gallus leaned over, grasping her breasts with his talons as he began to knibble her shoulder.

Smolder cooed and moaned as he began to rub his cock between her legs. "That's it. Let me feel you inside me."

Gallus was happy to oblige as he slowly reached down and helped to guide his spear where it needed to go, slowly pushing against her lovely folds as the two gave out a deep moan of pleasure. With a quick swipe, her grabbed her tail, pulled it out of the way and began to slowly push and pull against her.

Both panted as he slowly began to push harder against her. She was so tight. The way her moisten dungeon caressed his member; it was heavenly. Feeling his horniness begin to take over, he began to pick up the pace. Push in quickly before slowly pulling out. Then shoving hard back in again as far as he could go. He gasped and moaned.

Smolder gladly moaned along with him.

"That's it. Faster... Harder. Give it to me."

Gallus obliged as he started pumping into her, he began to really move his hips, chasing that high as he began to really go to town on her.

"Ah, Yes... That's it. Don't stop. Ah!"

Water splashed over the two as Gallus grunted. Pushing and pulling, shoving himself in over and over. It felt amazing.

Both were gasping as Gallus felt his tension building. Smolder more liquids dripped down her leg than just the shower.

"Ah... Smolder... Gonna... CUM!"

"Do it. Fill me up."

Gallus seemed to hesitated for a second. "You sure?"

"Can't knock this dragon up so fill me with your gryphon seed!"

Gallus nodded as he pushed himself against her, gripping her breasts as he did so, feeling himself unload into her. "Here it... COMES."

Smolder felt a wave of pleasure hit her as Gallus' seed began to spray within her.
"AHHH... YESSS!"

Gallus shoved himself in as far as he could go as he felt his climax crash deep within her letting out a low long moan.

"Ahhhh... Yeah... I needed that."

He took a deep breath before dislodging himself, some white liquid dripping out as he did so. Smolder took a minute to revel in the afterglow before removing herself from the shower.

"Ah... Yeah... Feeling better?" She asked, between her low gasps.

Gallus nodded. "Way better. Still a bit horny but not as bad as before."

Smolder cocked her head. "Yeah, its weird. I still feel a bit horny too. But lets worry about that later." She looked just past him. "Was that door always there?"

Gallus turned around, surprised to see that in fact a door was there even though he was certain there wasn't one before.
"Impossible. I know there wasn't one there before... Should we go in?"

Smolder shrugged her shoulders. "Well its are best bet of moving forward and maybe getting out of here. Lets see where it goes."

Gallus nodded and bent down to grab his boxers only to find them gone. "What the?" He glanced around before quickly giving up. "I feel like this place is messing with us."

Smolder shrugged again before slowly walking towards the door. "Probably, but we won't do much good to dwell on it."

As she went to open the door, Gallus felt an odd sensation come over him. Almost like he was being watched. He glanced around but didn't see anyone. As Smolder opened the door though, a bright light could seen at the end of a long hallway.

"Well, this is an interesting development." Smolder said with a smirk before casually walking in. Gallus quickly followed behind her. As the two entered, the door quickly shut behind them before disappearing from the wall.

"Hello? Is anyone there?" Ocellus called out. She was standing in nothing but a soft pink night shirt. She was in a low lit room with tiled walls. There tunnels branched off from the room. There was knee high water surrounding her and a spiral staircase leading up to some dark room above her.

"Where am I?" She muttered.

She began to slowly walk forward towards the staircase. But upon seeing how dark it was, she decided against it. Instead moving towards one of the tunnels that had some light coming from it. "Is anyone else here?" She wondered out loud.

The sounds of soft music could be heard nearby as she began to slowly head towards it.

Author's Note

This was a really fun one to write. Combining so many things here. Just a wave of emotion here. Always been fascinated by Liminal Spaces and getting write about them here and the added the additional fun of it being water involved... Perfection.

Should also mention I am going my own way with this. I am ignoring some bits of the Poolroom cannon. So no "life guards" or "swimmers." I may not even use the danger zone. It will be just rooms based on pictures from the pool rooms and liminal spaces involved.
