I didn't expect the world to be changed so quickly. I always thought we would be safe under the bedrock, but... we are not. Man is coming for us. Man is coming for us all. I pull my hair back from my face. The water is calm, but it'll only last amount. I can feel the vibrations coming off of it. I can feel the violence up above. Our brothers and sisters who are fighting for our home. The ocean is being destroyed time and time again. I swim up to the surface. I burst through the water, and I look up at the earth.
I can almost see them digging into the earth. What happens if they find us? What happens when our home is destroyed? What happens when all our lands burn in fire? I let out a breath. I turn to the village. I should not worry about this. It is too soon. We are safe down here. We are under the roots of Aden, Father Tree. His roots hang down like vines. Our village is our jewel.
"Tsireya!" I hear a yell.
I turn.
"Come in the water Anula." I call.
She flinches. I swim over.
"Come on little sis." I say again.
"But..." She sits down.
I take her hand.
"Nothing bad will happen to you. I promise." I say.
"Okay..." She slips in.
I take her hands.
"Come on, follow me." I go under.
