Drowned


John looked back to see his own body dead and floating in the pool. He supposed he could call an ambulance, but he paused for a moment to think about what had happened. He was a good swimmer; there was no reason why he suddenly started to drown. It was like he just forgot for a moment, then everything the flashed. The next thing he knew, he was standing at the edge of the pool, watching his former body drown. But he was doing it from another body -- a woman’s body. He could remember everything about himself -- about being John -- but he also realized he had forgotten one thing; he had forgotten how to swim. He knew he used to know, but the knowledge just didn’t seem to transfer to this new body.

And so he slowly continued out of the pool and called for help. He pretending to not have any connection to his former body. Heck, he didn’t know much about his new body, so it probably wasn’t a lie. There were going to be a lot of questions, and John needed to start finding answers.
