She felt the cold water seep into her nose, freezing her insides. She had always been a lousy swimmer, and could do nothing but let the current carry her as she flailed her arms, trying to get to the surface.
The sun seemed like a tiny dot of light, swaying in the murky waters, far out of her reach. Gwen cried of anyone, even Dannel, to help her, but only bubbles came out of her mouth, letting too much water into her throat and stomach.
Gwen felt herself lose consciousness, and fought to regain control of her body and swim anywhere. Someone shoved his arm into the water, Gwen could barely see the ghastly white fingers close around her arm and pull her out of the dephts.
She coughed and sputtered when she reached the surface, hugging whoever had saved her as she tried to get air back into her lungs.
"Thanks," she said, looking at her saviour. She gasped, jumping back. She'd rather go back into the water than confront the vision that stood in front of her.
"Janis!"
