Wilbur's POV

The storm was approaching fast and I knew the ship wouldn't be back at the shore in time to escape it. It began to rain. A cold rain. The drops were big and heavy, though, Tommy and Tubbo friends were giggling and splashing forming water puddles at each other.

"You two be careful!" Ranboo called out, biting his nails. "We'll be fine, you big baby!" Tommy yelled back.

The waves began to pick up and flood the ship a few feet deep.

"Fuckkk! I'm soaked!" Tubbo whined. "We all are, Tubbo!" Tommy yelled over the loud waves and howling wind. "It was gonna happen anyways! It's pouring rain!"

Tommy looked over and saw just how nervous Ranboo was.

"Hey, I think you should go comfort your boyfriend!" Tommy's shouted to Tubbo. "Huh? What are you talking about? I don't have a boyfriend!" Tubbo yelled back. Tommy pointed to the scared Ranboo. "Oh! Tommy, we aren't dating! What the fuck?!" "You might as well be! Now go!"

Tubbo rolled his eyes and quickly went over to where Ranboo was sitting, grabbing a rope to hold himself against the rocking ship, as Ranboo was doing as well. Tubbo put his arm around Ranboo. The were sat on a bench, holding on for dear life.

"Tommy, you idiot!" I shouted, though nobody could hear me. Tommy was just standing there in the ankle high water without anything to hold onto. "Grab something, you dumbass!" I said.

"Grab something, you dumbass!" Ranboo shouted. Finally, someone with some logic.

Tommy went to take a step but a large wave crashed into the ship, flooding the floor. The water got caught under Tommy's feet and he slipped, nearly falling. He slid to the edge of the boat, his back slamming into it. The sheer force of that toppled him over and he fell into the water.

I gasped, freezing for a moment. Tubbo yelled for Tommy's brother.

I dove under the water, searching for Tommy. It was dark, but I spotted his bright red shirt easily. He was conscious and visibly afraid. I would be too if I was him. I quickly swam over, wrapping my arms around his waist, and pulling him to the surface.

Tommy's POV

I couldn't breathe. It was dark. My eyes burned from the salty water. I thought I was gonna die. Actually, I knew I was gonna die. I can swim, but the water was ice cold, shocking my body, making me unable to swim. Plus, the current was strong against me.

I felt arms wrap around me. My first thought was that Techno or someone had jumped in after me, but these arms were different feeling. They were a lot more slim, and boney.

My head broke the surface and I began to cough. I opened my burning eyes for just a moment and spotted a piece of driftwood nearby, so I grabbed it, holding on for my life. I felt a hand on my pack that began to push me in the water to where I assumed was either the ship or land.

"Techno, he's over here!" I heard Tubbo yell. "How the fuck are we gonna get him?! The water is like, fifteen feet down!" Then came the voice of Ranboo.

I felt the wood I was holding bump the side of the ship. I looked up, seeing a rope ladder being thrown over the edge. My body was weak and I laid my head down on the wood. I looked to the side, seeing a hand on my arm. The hand was pale with and it's fingertips were brushed lightly with an icy blue mixed with a small amount of light yellow.

The hand left my arm, and then I felt a pair of hands reach under my arms, lifting me. This was Techno. I can tell that.

A few moments later, I was sitting on the ship floor, coughing up some water that I had swallowed when I laid my head down. Arms were wrapped around me from behind, holding me up.

"We got him, Phil, he's ok!" I heard Techno yell from behind me, as he was the one holding me.

I shivered from the cold.

"Hey, Tommy, you alright?" Techno asked, slightly turning me so I could look at him. I shakily nodded as my whole body shook. "T-That wa-ter is- is f-free-zing." I choked out. "I bet so." Techni replied, wrapping his arms around me.

It didn't help much, because he was pretty soaked as well.

"A-Are-" Techno cut me off. "Tubbo and Ranboo are fine, don't worry about them." He said, basically reading my mind.

A minute or so later, we arrived at the shore, and there was a few people there that had seen us coming in. They were there to help us secure the boat on the deck faster.

I was so cold and shaky that I couldn't stand, so Techno, being the pog big brother he is, carried me.

"Is he alright?" Some random man asked that was at the docks. "Got knocked overboard." Techno replied. "Oh, gods. And he's ok?" "Yup. For now."

"We gotta get him home before he gets hypothermia. Tubbo, Ranboo, you two go home." Phil said. "But what about Tommy?" Tubbo asked. "I'll update you tomorrow. Just go bed you get sick."

The three of us then turned to quickly go home.

"Can I go back to your house instead of mine?" I heard Tubbo ask. "Yeah, sure." Ranboo replied. "Thanks, I don't wanna be home with dad during a storm."

I felt myself drifting off. I could tell we were close to home, so I let it happen, and a small amount of time later, I fell into a cold, uncomfortable sleep.
