"Dan!" Amy screamed over the roar of the hurricane. "DAN!"
She heard a muffled cry far off from the ocean and was about to sprint into the water after him, when Nellie grabbed her arm.
"What do you think you're doing?" she demanded. "First you guys take off without telling me, then you let Dan take a boat out in the middle of a hurricane, and now you're going after him by swimming?"
"But- but- Dan-" Amy was too worried to correct Nellie. It had been Dan who left them to hunt for a clue in the ocean, Dan who sprinted out into the hurricane before Amy could stop him, and Dan who "borrowed" a boat to get onto an island near us.
And, as if it couldn't get any worse, he took a rowboat.
A rowboat. Smart of him, Amy thought.
"Look," Nellie said firmly. "If you go out there, you'll have, like, the same problem as Dan. You know, waving your arms wildly around, trying to get to shore, that kind of thing? We need a plan!"
The horror on Amy's face was enough to tell Nellie that her words had done nothing to calm Amy down.
"You're right!" She shouted. "What if- what if-" gulping, she faced the bleak ocean.
There was no time to come up with a plan! Yanking her arm from Nellie, she sprinted towards the docks, and pushed one of the row boats away from land. As she jumped into the boat, it rocked violently beneath her, but she managed to steady it.
A howl from Nellie was all she needed to hear to know that she was in huge trouble. But there was no way that she was going to stop Amy from getting to Dan.
Amy unhooked the rope that anchored her, and the ferocious wind blew her away.
Sorry if it's bad. I'm not really good with other peoples characters, and I guess it was OOC. But hey, I tried :) So, please feel free to compliment, flame (most likely), or say other random things. And I really need some advice too, please and thank you.
