Struggling screams erupt from my mouth when strong winds hit my face, making it difficult to breathe.

My screams were soon concealed when my body came into contact with the water. It almost felt as if I had fallen onto a concrete floor when my body collided with it.

Water quickly rushed into my mouth, my body going limp as the ocean of water grabbed ahold of feet, pulling me down to the bottom.

I could only struggle, helplessly trying to make my way to the top but it was all weak attempts since I was barely able to move.

My eyes were still open when I saw the light from above moving further and further away from me as my body slowly sank deeper into the ocean.

It was not too long after that they started to shut and I could feel myself slowly drifting away into another world.

However, Just when my eyes were about to completely shut, it opened a just a little when hands suddenly grab mine, and the next I knew was that I was being pulled up to the top.

Water came flowing out of my mouth as I reached the surface. My mouth immediately opened wide, taking in all the air my lungs needed and at the same time, coughing up lots of water that I swallowed.

"Are you okay?" A worried voice spoke all of a sudden and although I couldn't turn around, I could recognize him from just his voice.

A sigh came from him after I had replied to his question with a nodded head. He stayed still for a second before tightening his grip around me and began swimming towards the east.

It was still dark, making it hard to see but luckily it was coming onto the morning, so the sky was changing from the pitch-black color to a light grey one. And this made it a little less difficult to see.

I would say a couple of minutes had past when he finally made it ashore. We both exhale, after I was armed carry, by him, and was gently placed on the cold sandy beach.

I shuddered as it touched my skin, my teeth beginning to chatter when the chilly, morning breeze suddenly blew by, and being drenched in water only made it worst.

I wrapped my arms around myself, trying to find warmth that way, and sadly, I didn't work. I only kept shivering as the breeze blew even more and even stronger, making it feel as if we were in the North Pole.
