When I surfaced, I found Maria and Lucas clinging onto a blue matrass. I swam over and gulped in oxygen. Lucas put the arm of the side that wasn't injured round me. "You ok?" He asked. I nodded. "I'm fi-" I cut myself off with a whimper. Lucas followed my gaze and saw another wave. "ZOE! LUCAS! SWIM UNDER!" Maria screamed and bobbed under, as did we. I quickly lost my grip on Lucas when something hit my arm, snapping it. I screamed underwater and accidently inhaled some water and swam upwards for air. I found the blue mattress and swam to it, tied my hands to it, layed my head on it, and passed out.
LUCAS POV
I quickly lost my grip with Zoe when something hit her arm and she screamed. The currents took her away, and I felt something hit me in the back of the head really hard and I blacked out.
MARIA'S POV
I swam around looking for Lucas. I saw Zoe and tried to find Lucas. After nearly 20 mins of looking, I found a body looking like him, half dead. I spun him over and sat him up, he coughed up a lot of water. He leant back into me and muttered. "Mum... where's Zoe?"
"Ok, it's ok. I'll take you to her." He nodded but cried out in pain. "What?" He shook his head. "Nothing. Headache from not enough air." I frowned and checked his head over. He stood up, we were in shallower water, but immediately fell down again. I put a hand to the back of his head and he yelled in pain and began crying. I puled my hand away and found it covered in blood. I swallowed thickly and swam with him, as best I could, to the blue matress. Maybe Zoe could help him?
