I’m suffocating!

I wiggled my body, desperately trying to gain control over my movement in water, but I could not move my arms.Neither could I move my legs! They would not respond to me as well.

I was being drawn dangerously close to the center now. I could hear the deafening roar of the motor- sound travels spectacularly well in water. I could see the motor as well. It was emanating a pulse that made the water around it ripple and bubble, as if it was boiling the water.

I’m getting too close!

Then, whooosh! The water molecule shot into the air before gravity pulled it back down, only to be shot up once again, just for our entertainment.

  1. Excellent Fred! Poor guy is drowning because of the fountain that is suppose to be entertaining. I could feel his panic and fear. However, I didn’t feel it at the end which makes me wonder if he wasn’t really drowning. (?)
