Dig My Grave

Chapter 19

Salty

Osha felt the water hit her like a bullet. There was nowhere for her feet to go, there was nowhere for her arms to hold onto. She tried to find something, anything to support her, but they were in the middle of the lake. What was worse, she couldn't breath, she felt something grab her leg and pull her. She wasn't sure who it was, or even which way she was pointed anymore. The person grabbed her shirt and turned her around and her head broke the surface of the water. Cryptor's eyes scanned her as she coughed up dirty water. Throwing up any good food she had eaten earlier. She put her head on his shoulder as he tredded water.

The boat that was knocked on its back floated close enough for Cryptor to grab hold of. He pushed Osha onto it. She lay her head on the boat coughing up more water.

"Can you breath alright?" He asked. Truth be cold Osha was having a hard time breathing. When she fell in she gasped and water just went gushing into her lungs. She wasn't sure how long she was down there...actually she closed her eyes and shivered in the freezing cold air.

Cryptor turned to look over the water. Scanning it proved insufficient. He couldn't even pick up who pulled them in.

"Old tech…" He growled looking over the surface for any sort of disturbance that would aid in him figuring out where the person was. He narrowed his eyes at something before turning to Osha a little.

"Stay there…" He lowered himself into the water. Hearing Osha protest lightly. She was losing grip on the boat. She just felt so tired.

Cryptor sunk below the waves spotting the red eyes staring at him.

'Mr. E...I should have known the fall wouldn't have killed you.' Cryptor thought as he's jets propelled him through the water.

Osha felt the surface of the water grow more churning. She tried her best to keep hold of the boat. It rocked to and fro as the two below the boat fought. A few red flashes and a huge gush of water caused a huge wave to overtake the boat. Osha was nowhere to be seen.

Cryptor broke the surface and growled his chest smoked from the laser going off.

"Took my arm, the lousy scrap pieces." He ran his fingers over the stump. He turned to look around for the boat. It was now in a few pieces floating in the water. Cryptors eyes grew wide and he scanned the water again.

"Tucker?" He looked around frantically before his sonar caught something just below the surface. He dove down. "Come on baby." He called out grabbing Osha's middle and pulled her back up.

Her head broke the water, but she didn't gasp for air like last time. Nothing was coming out. She wasn't breathing. Cryptor fired off his jets and took to the air landing on the docks they had previously left.

"Osha?" He lay her on her side letting whatever water that sat in her lungs to come out. Doing CPR on a human was unheard of for a nindroid. Especially one of his rank. His programming just told him to leave her. All she was for him, is food. This one had expired. Time to find another. But his heart said no.

Laying her flat on her back he tipped her chin up and blew into her mouth. Her lips were blue. He checked the temperature outside. It was 12F(11C) why did they leave the house?! It was much too cold for humans! His human. He blew into her mouth once again.

Pressing his hands on her chest. He was able to feel a heartbeat from her. She was alive, that was good. Coughing up the rest of the junk in her lungs. Cryptor rolled her on her side. She just lay there, weak, vulnerable. He could just so easily lean down and drain her completely. He could feel the veins within him burn for her blood. He had exerted a lot of his energy on ensuring that Mr. E didn't come after her again. Never again. He growled and picked up his lover. He wanted to destroy E again. He had touched his female and he hated it so much.

Mindroid watched as Cryptor walked through with Osha. He whistled at him. Cryptor didn't stop, he kept walking.

Min peeked into Cryptors room watching his General place Osha down on a bed and pulled off the wet clothing. Placing a blanket around the woman he curled up next to her. Attempting to warm the freezing woman up.
