Aspen waded into the lake and waved at Ivy, who was on the shore. "Come on Mom, I'll protect you!"
Ivy smiled and started to follow her son into the water. Aspen was fully grown now and she did think he could protect her.
She waded in a ways and felt ok at first. After the ground was gone, she started to get scared. She felt weird, the plants couldn't help her here, nor the ground. She wasn't safe! "Help!" Ivy started to sink...
Aspen turned around and started to swim toward Ivy's call for help. He dove under the water, why did he make her swim? He looked around and cried for help under the water. She was close the the ground and as he called the plants around her seemed to hear and listen. They lenghtened and grew, pulling Ivy out of the water. Once out Aspen said thanks the plants. "Mama?"
Ivy sputtered out water, but was fine. "I'm never doing that again." She pulled Aspen into a hug and there they sat.
