Boboiboy POV
Defeating Retak'ka, I have achieved.
The world around me swayed slowly
.
.
.
Falling
I finally realized
.
.
.
Everything moved fast when I only felt as if I'm falling slowly and as light as a feather.
.
.
.
I felt my back hitting the thin layer of ice below me. My lungs ached
I was drowning
.
The water was freezing, the cold pricking my body to numbness. Vision blurred from the water.
.
I slowly sank down. I felt something grabbing one of my hands from below.
I let it be, my body was unable to protest.
.
And then, despite my blurry vision, I saw my friends swimming down to me from the surface, grabbing my other hand when one of them reached me, to pull me to the surface.
.
.
.
Exhaustion seeped in as I went unconscious before seeing a blinding white light luminating the river.
.
.
.
.
