Chapter 4 – The Dream
As Jenny, Louise and their mother sailed in their little boat, Jenny and her sister worked hard to steer around the rocks. Louise always made sure they were OK. Suddenly a huge rock came into view of the three travellers. Jenny reached for the ropes, turning around to comfort her mother only to find her gone from the boat. Jenny searched everywhere but her mother was nowhere to be found. She then reached for her sister's reassuring hand, and words telling Jenny that they would get through this only to find her disappearing into the sky, already among the clouds. Terrified, Jenny turned to the rock which was closer than ever before. She reached for the ropes with one hand and the tiller with the other but it was no use. She knew that the small boat couldn't be sailed by only one person, no matter how old. The boat crashed head-on into the rock, sending Jenny flying into the deep ocean. With no one to save her, she was blown down under the surface. Jenny used all her energy to get back up to the surface, only to be blown down into the ocean by a strong current. As her lungs were bursting for air, Jenny was tossed and turned until she could no longer tell which way was up. As Jenny let go she felt the cold, harsh see water flood into her delicate lungs, stinging every inch of her chest, making her scream silently in pain. As she felt another wave of water flood into her lungs, her aching body fell further into the sea. The pain got worse and she eventually drifted into unconsciousness, never to wake up ever again.
