This refers briefly to "Breathe Again". Just so you know.

Drowning (Anthony Carmine - 14 yrs.)
Their mother had specifically told them not to go to the harbor. It was past the outskirts where the Locust were, but the foundations was loose and dangerous.
Anthony walked along the pier, humming. Ben trailed carefully behind, nervous after their previous downtown excursion three weeks before.
Then some wood gave and Anthony landed in the water below.
He sucked in a lung full of seawater. Ben yelled, panicked.
He came up and Ben grabbed his outstretched hand and pulled. Anthony rose and felt for wood, pulling himself up.
He hugged Ben, shivering.
"Thank you."
Ben just hugged him tighter.
