She had to breathe. She couldn't hold her breath any longer. Her eyes were starting to hurt, her vision was going fuzzy and her brain was starting to hurt. But she couldn't.

But the nightmare of her drowning? She could feel the water invade her lungs, feel her body burn and get clawed at by whatever is holding her, dragging her down.

"Oh—uh," (No) "Yes, yeah, yeah, I heard. Uh, Harry almost got caught because of the egg."
