Octavia's POV:

   This time, it wasn't fear that had left me unable to move, I actually couldn't run from this tsunami if I wanted to. So I just lay there waiting. And even though it was only seconds before the wave crashed onto me, it seemed as though I had a lifetime to think about what what was most important.

   I though of Bellamy. How he would be crushed after I was gone. I thought about how I was about to break my promise of being fine. I thought of Clark. I wondered if she was okay. If the waves had killed her. But mostly, I thought of Lincoln. Even though we only met yesterday, I felt complete with him. Like I could really be myself around him. I wonder if he's alive. I wonder if he is looking for me. I thought about what our future would have been like. We would have been happily married. With amazing kids. So much went through my mind in just a few seconds.

   But soon I was completely helpless under hundreds of feet of water. I was being thrown around like a rag doll. I couldn't see. I didn't know if I was right side up or upside down. But I could feel everything. Sticks piercing my skin. Hitting my hand on the side of the building I tried to swim to. Everything. Soon enough I passed out from the lack of oxygen. And I don't think I will ever see the lifeguard who I had fallen for again.
