The Phantom

The water was now up to his knees, struggling to make his way through the cellar he managed to face plant in the water. He felt his face prickling from the impact. He patted his face it felt numb.it's not like he did a 100 meter jump but still it hurt. He decided to continue
walking, he's legs were tired after 20 minutes of exploring a cellar. Of course it would not have been a problem if half a meter of water was not flooding the whole place. But he was determined to see what this mysterious cellar was hiding so he did not stop. He walked towards a door, of course walked would not be a good adjective for this since he was nearly swimming. He tried pushing open the door kicking it but it would not open. The door was either locked or because of the water he could just not get it to open. He did not think anymore about it instead he decided to look for another room. He found another room the door must have broke of since it was no where to be seen. The water was now about a meter high so by now he was swimming. Then he realized the cellar will be completely filled with water in a matter of minutes. He was generally not best swimmer but you would not have known if you saw him in that moment. He's legs and arms moving faster then propellers on an airplane. Kicking and splashing as he went struggling to keep up the speed he started at he began to slow down. But he was still no where near the exit. As the water began to be higher and higher he started giving up. That's when he found another exit. He started to realize as he swam that this was not a cellar it was a bunker. It jut could not have been any bigger.
