I was suddenly pulled down. I thrashed and kicked, my foot scraping across something. I rose to the surface, gasping and hacking.
"Is everything okay?"
"No.. The filter sucked me down.."
"Oh, no.."
"I scraped my foot.. Badly," I muttered, the top and bottom of my right foot mangled.

[Seargent Demolisher]

Joseph stopped singing dead. He was disgusted about the mangled foot. Malikov appeared out of nowhere to give Sophia medical attention.

Lizzy sat up straighter, looking in concern at Sophia. "Are you okay?"

[Ella Sparkleflower]

"I think so.. The chlorine stings," I mumbled, lifting myself out and only the edge.
"Lizzy, get me my towel, please?"

[Seargent Demolisher]

Malikov started to examine the mangled foot. "Ah... I see the problem. Apparently something very sharp was stuck in the pool's filter." He then injected some sort of yellow liquid to regenerate the damaged tissue.

Joseph started to dive in the pool, looking for the filter to remove the "sharp object" Malikov explained about.

Lizzy nodded and wordlessly handed Sophia a towel.

[Ella Sparkleflower]

I smiled at her and shivered, wrapping the towel around my shoulders. Celly dived down into the pool, examining the bottom. She rose to the surface.
"Found it!" She gasped. "Glass from a Cola bottle.. Shame.."
"No.. It was rough and hard.."
Celly dived down again.

Lizzy dove into the pool herself, her eyes glowing a bright red as she examined the bottom of the pool. She spotted something at the bottom and swam down to it, gripping it with her hands and yanking it out. Lizzy swam to the surface, holding it up. "Is this it?"

After looking for a few minutes, somewhere else, Joseph finally saw something gray and sharp. He carefully grabbed it, and picked it up. Seconds after, he emerged again, and the group saw the weird object. Malikov dropped his lower jaw in amazement. "Joseph, you just found a piece of Gray Tech! I never even knew it was here! But... Why here? That still puzzles me. I'll have to examine this piece immediately. Don't disturb me while I'm in my research!" Malikov paced himself to his laboratory, placing a very convenient "DO NOT DISTURB" sign, but in Russian alphabetics instead of English.

((Apparently, curse my latency...))

"It was one thing, like pliers.. Lizzy! You found it!" I gasped. The object was open like an oyster but sharp around the edges and somehow connected, like can tops glued together.
"This is it.. Eww.. There's gum on it.."
