*Wynter's Pov!*
The water felt cold against my skin, and even warmer as I walked further in.
I looked over, as Artemis arose from underneath the water. His hair in his face, I watched closely as he pulled it back up. His eyes met mine, and for a second. Not long, but just for a second I saw a smile.
He looked happy, but once he knew the eyes he was staring at. His expression dropped, and continued to swim, far away from me. I went under the water myself, looking out at the endless amount of space surrounding it. I swam around further, seeing my friends slowly becoming nothing.
I knew I was going too far out, but I didn't care. I wanted to move away from the people, from the world. I wanted to swim until there wasn't anything to worry about anymore, until I left the world. But when everything went dark around me, I didn't expect it. I freaked out, I tried chasing the water back to the shore.
But I felt my mind turning into an empty hotel, I was having a panic attack. I couldn't breathe, and I didn't know If I could get above water fast enough. I raced up to the surface, feeling guilty of the remaining thoughts. But once my head hit the air, everything still felt dark.
I saw my friends in the distance, coming towards me. But someone touched my shoulder, pulling me toward them. "Theo?" I asked as sadness filled his eyes. "Why did you kill me?" He asked as I felt tears forming my eyes. "Just die already, do what you should have done. Do it for me, let me live while you perish." He said with a disheveled smile.
"I can't." I said, but I then felt him push me under. I tried to reach for the surface but my body became limp. I floated down, as the tears I had disappeared. The sadness remained, and so did the guilt as I fell deeper. I'm sorry Theo, I really am. If I have to die, so that you can live then I'll do it. I will do anything, even if it kills me.
I then felt strong arms wrapping around my waist, pulling me back up. Was It Theo? Was he saving me? I hope it was, maybe we can be together again. Play games together, splash in the water. But it wasn't, as soon as light hit my eyes and I saw the sun again.
I saw Artemis, with a panicked expression. He brought me to the shore, my body still limp in his arms. After minutes passed, I was placed on the sand as everyone stared at me in shock. I looked down at my body to see my legs shaking. I felt everything around me start to shake as my eyes rolled back.
I heard yelling, so much of it. I couldn't breathe, what was happening to me..I could think, or feel anything other than the overwhelming pain in my legs. I tried to move, but my body was pushed back to the side. I felt my head on someone, as chatter surrounded my ears.
Until everything went dark, and quiet suddenly. And soon, it went from dark, to completely pitch black. Falling from everything around me.
Theo, I'm sorry.
