Chapter 11: Underwater Panic
Meanwhile Tim finally came to and realized he was floating; confused he leapt up and soon discovered why. The room he was in was partially flooded, the water reached up to his knees. He looked around and saw Sappira, also waking up, she too leapt up and looked around, finally she saw him and hurried over. They hugged each other and kissed, after a long time they separated for air.
"Thank god we're both still alive." She said breathlessly.
Tim nodded. "Yeah, going by the decor and lack of windows I'd say we're in the basement. The deepest one."
Sappira thought about the floor plan she had seen of the building and nodded.
"Yeah, the third basement, this is...well, was, the labs." She explained, "How did they end up flooded like this?"
Tim shrugged. "Who knows, from what I can tell, where we're standing, is shallowest part; the rest...well, it's deeper."
Sappira groaned. "Great, just what we need."
Tim smirked at her.
"Regretting your decision to wear skirt today again?"
She shoved his shoulder playfully.
"Let's just find a way out of here." She said.
Tim agreed and, still wary they began to walk until they reached an area where the water deepened. They stopped, Sappira then commented.
"Remember what Jason said about the B.O.W.s, there's three down here."
Tim nodded. "I hate to think what they could be...if they're down amongst all this water."
Knowing they had no other choice they drew their weapons and stepped into the deeper water, now up to their thighs.
They walked slowly, both due to the water and their caution. Suddenly they heard a disturbance in the water and cautiously took one step forwards. Suddenly they saw the three B.O.W.s as they leapt out of the water and landed back in it. Infected sharks, Neptune's. Tim shook his head.
"Great, now we're in trouble?"
Sappira nodded, keeping her gun levelled at the water. "How are we supposed to fight them, we don't have heavy weaponry."
Tim shook his head, there was only one way for them to fight like this; improvise. Looking around desperately he saw something they could use.
"Sappira look, if we could then to try and attack us and have them leap at those gas canisters, we could blow them up."
Sappira smiled. "It's worth a shot, let's go."
They moved into position, provoked by the movement the Neptune's began to circle and finally one of them leapt at the duo. They ducked at the last minute, turning as they did so. The Neptune missed them and landed next to the gas canisters which prompted Tim and Sappira to shot the canisters which blew up. The force of the explosion blasted the shark and killed it. It floated to the surface and lay still.
"Perfect, one down, two to go." Tim stated.
Sappira nodded and they searched for another set of gas canisters; luckily they spotted two, one for each remaining Neptune. They moved over to the next one.
As they moved however one of the Neptune's passed by very close, its bulk hitting Sappira in the legs and causing her to stumble. Tim caught her but that prompted the second Neptune to jump. They weren't ready and so couldn't use the gas canisters, they tried but the explosion missed the Neptune which passed by close to them again. Angry at this, Tim stabbed it in the head with his sword. Although it died it jerked angrily and pulled him down underwater.
"Tim!?" Sappira gasped, just then the third Neptune jumped.
She ducked underneath it and spun around, it landed right where she wanted it, she fired and blew up the gas canister killing the third and final Neptune. She then turned back to the water and began to feel around in a panic. But then, to her relief, Tim surfaced a few feet to her right, gasping for air. She waded over to him and hugged him tightly.
"Don't scare me like that again." She said, Tim returned the hug.
"I'm sorry, don't worry, I'm okay, did you get 'em?"
She nodded and he breathed a sigh of relief, they reloaded their guns and then heard Sappira's phone ring.
She picked it up and answered it.
"Hello?"
"Sappira, good, finally got through to you, is Tim with you?" It was Lydia.
Sappira smiled. "Hey Lydia, yeah he is, everything okay?"
"Everything's fine, for now."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Sappira asked worried.
Lydia sighed and then answered. "Better I tell you all at once; Jason and Lisa are still alive, they're on their way up, I'm at the first basement with Jacob, Cashmere, Rosemarie and David. Jason and Lisa were in the second basement."
Sappira smiled, relieved that everyone was alright. "We're in the third, so you want us to head up?"
"Yes, I'll meet you all up here, then I'll tell you."
"Okay, we'll see you then."
With that she hung up and informed Tim of what she had just been told. Tim looked relieved that his mother was okay and they reached the door, the only part of the room above water, and opened it. They stepped out into the stairwell and began to climb. Once they reached the first basement they could rendezvous with the others and then, after hearing what Lydia had to say, escape the building.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
