Enemies to Lovers – Part Thirteen
She felt like she was drowning. She was drowning.
She thrashes around, trying to free herself from the chains that bound her to the ocean floor, but it was no use. Five separate pad locks around her arms, legs and waist, ensured that she would never be freed.
She wanted to scream, more than anything. Someone had to find her. There must have been someone who would hear her if she screamed.
But would they find her in time?
She knows that she needs to calm down. That everything will be okay.
She stops moving and allows the water to settle around her. Her long hair is flowing with the ocean, matting to her face and arms.
The water burns her eyes, but she can't bear to close them. If she does, she is certain something bad will happen.
She can not close her eyes.
Help me she says, more to her self than anything.
At least she was not alone.
There were dozens and dozens of beautifully colored fish floating around her, swimming circles in her hair and engaging in staring contests she always won.
But then... where did you go? My friends... where did you go?
The water around her was still and silent.
The fish had disappeared in an instant.
Where had they gone?
Please come back, she begged them in her mind. Please don't leave me.
She was truly scared now. She was completely alone in a sea of nothing.
Except.
No.
No.
She wasn't alone.
The instant she realized, she wished she was.
The silent water was still. Too still.
It was a sign, a warning.
Like most signs, it was counter intuitive.
Silence in the forest meant a bear was coming.
Calm air always came before the worst of storms.
But the silence of this sea meant something all together worse.
"HELP ME!" she finally shrieked, using her voice for the first time. "HELP!!!"
Sorry Victoria Wolf, no Matt bugging Sylar in this chapter. However, there may be something coming up soon, or maybe not.
To everyone reading, I apologize for the delay. I get so busy and distracted with other stuff, that I forget people are actually reading this. I wouldn't have even updated if Victoria Wolf hadn't commented. Maybe if you comment more, I'll update more *hint*hint*
And finally, to anyone whose seen the new star trek movie (I've seen it about eight times now)... I was just reading some of the up coming chapters and I realized that Sylar sounds just a bit like Spock in a few scenes. And this was written a good six months ago!
