Jurassic World: A New Beginning

7

Bea opened her eyes under water, the salty water making her eyes burn for a few seconds as she looked around before she started to kick up towards the surface of the crystal clear ocean water. The lungs in her body rising up in flames as they begged Bea for some air, constricting painfully with each passing second as the young woman desperately tried to reach the surface faster and faster; Bea opened her mouth with agony and the last bubbles of air in her body slipped out of her lips and she felt she was about to pass out from the lack of air or from the growing agony in her chest.

The surface of the ocean was broken as Bea's blond head erupted from under the water and instantly she gasped for air, the fresh Costa Rican air flowing through her body felt like a thousand needles as her chest rose and fell, the young girl trying to stop the painful sensation in her lungs from the air depravation and trying to ignore the dizziness that had started to take over her.

Bea looked around, her shoes suddenly turning into heavy bricks making it hard to swim around, to her left the boat was slowly starting to be swallowed by the water, she didn't know if the dinosaurs had escaped, or if they knew how to swim but she was begging to all the gods she knew that none of those creatures would climb up her back for safety.

"Where's Lowery?" Bea asked herself as she was unable to hear any screams or human sounds, she looked around, panic taking over her soul. "LOWERY!" Bea tried to scream, but her lungs didn't have the strength to scream right now. "LOWERY! LOWERY WHERE ARE YOU!?"

There was no answer.

Bea looked around, in front of her she could make out the clear sand of the beach, with great effort she started to swim towards the beach; her shoes hanging heavy on her feet and her back pack making her laps come slower and slower as she desperately tried to find Lowery as she made her way towards the beach.

The waves of the sinking boat pushed Bea towards the beach, her feet touching the sand rapidly as she started to push her way towards the dry sand; her legs pushing forward in an underwater race. The young woman collapsed on the sand on all fours as soon as she was out of the water, her braid falling over her shoulder as she gasped for air, her back arched forward as she panted and coughed.

"Get up" she whispered to herself as she sat over her ankles, her eyes closed as she took in deep breathes of fresh air through her mouth "You need to find Lowery"

The reminder that Lowery wasn't with her made Bea push herself up to her wobbling feet and look around the beach; a few debris from the boat floating around the water as the boat was finally swallowed whole into the water.

"LOWERY!" screamed Bea, her lungs almost collapsing under all the pain. "LOWERY!"

"BEA!"

Bea spin around on the ball of her feet, her heart racing madly inside her chest, at the other end of the beach she saw Lowery, he was pulling someone out of the water. Bea sighed with relief before she started to trot towards her friend, her shoes squeaking with the water still inside.

"Lowery oh my god!" cried Bea, she hugged Lowery's left side as he dropped the person over the dry beach "Oh god I thought you were gone"

"I thought I was gone too" he answered, his voice harsh and sandy from all the sea water he had swallowed the moment they jumped out of the boat.

Bea turned from Lowery to the person laying over the beach, she knelt down next to Andrew's unconscious body, his chest was rising and falling gently and there was a string of blood rolling down the left side of his face.

"Where did you find him?" asked Bea as Lowery knelt down next to her.

"He was screaming out your name and when I turned to see him one of the cages hit him on the head and he was gone" explained Lowery "I had to dive after him"
