The ice suddenly crashed from some sort of below impact, as water beneath it broke free, and everyone stumbled over.

"Ahh!!" Luna panicked, falling into the now much cooler water (thanks to Echo's ice).

Kyou grabbed hold of Echo bridal style as he, too, reacted quickly, avoiding falling into the water, unlike the majority of Shadow Moon.

"Uh!" Haru gasped, crashing into the water.

Yurio grabbed ahold of Leo as they splashed off the broken ice and into the water.

Atomu and Hiro followed.

"Ah!" Galaxy released a feminine squeal as she fell back from the smashed ice that had been tilted upwards.

She crashed into the water.

Yukine also fell in, but when he swam back up the surface, clinging to a bit of ice, he noticed someone had not come back up.

"Uh!!" he gasped.

"JESUS, NOW IT'S FREEZING?!!!" Atomu complained, splashing about like a drowning rat.

Yukine suddenly dived back under, taking a deep breath before doing so.

"Huh? Yukine, this isn't Titanic!" Atomu commented, balancing himself up from leaning onto some of the broken ice.

Yukine dived down to see Luna sinking to the ground. She must have hit her head or something from the impact.

Beneath her were chunks of rock, and alarmingly, what looked to some bones from skeletons

Beneath her were chunks of rock, and alarmingly, what looked to some bones from skeletons...?!!

He grabbed ahold of her. Her eyes were squinted but not closed. She reached out her arms for Yukine to grab, unable to do anything else.

He released his only oxygen to word 'ultimate impact' while his feet pushed against a large rock on the floor, shooting him up to the surface from the spell.

"HUUURRRR!!!" they both gasped for air.

"You ok, Luna?" Echo asked with worry as they emerged from the water.

Luna nodded as she coughed up water. 

"Wait... Luna, you can't swim?" Yurio asked, pushing Leo onto a bit of broken ice.

"Uh! Oh no, I was just looking for the door! You know, the one Echo said would be our way out, under the water! B-but looks like I was out of luck. There were nothing but broken rocks down there. I think what Atomu triggered was some large impact from something underneath us, causing the ice to break and the floor to crack open. In any case, if there was a door, it definitely isn't accessible anymore!!" Luna blurted out, panicking with a slight blush.
