3. Zechariah finds me again

3. Zechariah finds me again

I started swimming the water refreshing me, my legs kicking ferociously. Arms slowly rising ip and down making a deafening splash!

My body started to shake, my soaked clothes getting heavier by each kick. I was at least a mile away from the far island. It looked like Long Island, New York. Of course I lived in New York, but I haven't been to Long Island in years. This was freaking me out. First, I get stabbed in the head by Zechariah. Second, I'm pulled through a mirror. And now this. I'm pretty sure I'm dead.I felt something tugging on my feet again, I was being dragged.

I screamed.

The water pressure was to much for me to handle I was getting farther from the island. My screams turned muffled as I sank under the water, slowly losing consciousness. My hair knotting up. I was thrashing, trying to get out of this someone's grip. I screamed again. The person released me. I was drowning slowly. My hair floating up as I was sinking. One of my knees bent and the other straight, my back bent, the necklace Teresa gave me floatīng up.

My combat boots slowly being taken off. By someones hands? They were hands. I tried to scream, close my eyes. But it didn't work. I was frozen. The person appeared in front of me. It was Zechariah. His emerald green eyes looked into mine. His brown hair floating. Dagger in hand, he stabbed my leg. It hurt worse than he stabbed me in the back of my head. My leg was still frozen, gold blood leaking out. My eyes literally tried to bulge out of it's sockets. The dagger had something dripping from it.

Poison.

I was still frozen. The water pressure was getting stronger. I couldn't hold my breath anymore. It was getting darker. My ribs were breaking. I opened m mouth. I was giving up. No more. I sank deeper. My body slowly failing me. My eyes shut tight. I was knocked out. I couldn't do anything. I was giving up on life. I couldn't get on the island. I wasn't home. This wasn't' New York, it was another dimension. And Zechariah was slowly killing me. I didn't have gold blood. The only explanation is I'm either a crazy six year old trapped in a dream, or, I'm dead.
