I felt my body hit the water, breaking a thin sheet of ice in the process. I was sinking further. I couldn't breath, looking wide eyed up at the disappearing sky. Feeling the freezing water against my skin, my body was numb and I couldn't even make an attempt to reach the surface. I reached out slowly towards the light that was the sun above the water.
The sky seen above the water was dimming. I could barely see anything now, knowing I was plummeting further toward the bottom of the ice covered lake that would soon be my grave.
I knew I wouldn't be able to last much longer and I felt my eyes closing slowly. So this is how I'll die, huh? I thought to myself. Ever since Itachi became my guardian, I no longer thought I'd die from a blow to the head from my mother or father. I no longer thought I'd be targeted in an alley way and get raped as I had as a little kid. I no longer thought I'd die alone.
But here I was on the brink of death, descending lower to the dark depths of the lake. And where was Itachi? Where was he now to save me?
Would I really die alone?
I was suffocating.
My lungs burned, longing for air, but there was none. I suddenly jerked around, my eyes shooting open. I needed air. My arms flailed toward the surface, but I was too far down.
I felt my heart pounding loudly and I couldn't feel the water any longer. My whole body was numb and yet, I was still alive. Somehow. But I was dying slowly and I knew it.
The dim light from above that was shining through the clear water was hidden by a dark shadow that I could faintly see moving from the land above me. Was it that man? The man with the golden eyes? Would he watch in amusement as I struggle in my last moments of life?
Itachi…please…
Save me.

I don't know if I'm actually going to make this sequel to Red Water. I am a pretty lazy person and I'm starting this SasuNaru story right now (called Online Dating…yeah). But I've got lots of plans for this story. Muwahahaha!! Uh…alright… you've all seen my weird side…moving on.
