October 13th: Submerged

A hand broke the surface before another wave crashed and rolled the person dragging their body back underwater.

She was looking around, the saltwater burning her eyes as she tried to survive.

Swimming back up her mouth breached for just long enough to get a new intake of oxygen before she was taken back under. The air in her lungs tried to float her to the surface while the current in the waves tried to pull her to the sand deep below.

She felt something nudge her foot and grab it teeth sinking into her skin and blood seeping out into the ocean as she was dragged the rest of the way down not making it to break the surface a third time as she blacked out from pain, lack of oxygen, and lack of blood the last things she felt were more mouths join in on her flesh.
