Going over to the side of the pool he dug around in a basket for a moment before returning with a motorized creature of some sort. Winding it up, Brandon let it go in front of Angelique; he watched as the toy slid past her waiting to see if Angelique would go after the toy.

 : Angelique's eyes tracked the toy, watching it move. She slowly followed it, pausing only when it started to head into water that was clearly over her head. |

Brandon stayed far enough away that he wouldn't distract Angelique from the toy but close enough that if she started to painic he was close to enough to grab her before she went under.

When the toy butted against the edge of the pool Brandon once again turned the toy this time along the edge of the pool, still staying in the deep end. He wasn't sure how much longer Angelique could swim for but wanted to keep her going as long as she was enthralled with the toy.

: It hadn't taken long for Angelique to get to the other side of the pool and pulled herself out, her prize in her hand. She settled down on the side of the pool to examine the toy that she been chasing. |

Staying in the water, Brandon braced his arms against the side of the pool next to Angelique. "So what did little kitty think of her first swim?" Brandon asked.

"It was, you swam from one end to the other and didn't even notice. Pretty good for someone who hates water and can't swim." Brandon grinned

: "But I was just following this," she said, holding up the toy Brandon had used. "Does that really count as swimming?" |

"You got yourself from one end to the other without any help, so yeah it does count." Brandon said as he grabbed the toy, "Want to try again?"

"This time I'll give you a little more space." Brandon said as he twisted the toy up again and asked "Ready?"
