Can Fish Drown Novels & Stories

Juliana's pov: I was drowning as I found myself trapped underwater, the water was twirling around me and I felt suffocation by the immersion of water. The water fills my mouth causing the nose to cut off the supply of my body's supply of oxygen. I struggle to stay conscious to avoid giving up the remaining tidal air in my lungs. Struggling to breath-hold I felt a loud bang at my heart, the more I battled to breathe I felt a painful sensation in my heart. My heart aches as the water enters my lungs.

I prayed that this gamble would buy me a second chance. Debris floated everywhere in the murky floodwater, dangerous objects drifting aimlessly, just waiting to injure anyone in their path. I was lucky—every time something rushed toward me, I managed to dodge at the last second. However, a wooden plank came barreling through the current, cutting through the water like a weapon aimed straight at me. My instincts kicked in, and I dove beneath the surface, holding my breath just in time to avoid the impact. I remembered that there had been a long gash on Victoria's arm when they recovered her body. It hit me that Patrick had only survived because Victoria, a strong swimmer, had pushed the plank

But my panicked brain does not register logic in that moment. I struggle. Try to remember the swimming tips Kay has taught me. But the cold distracts me. The chlorine stings my eyes. I can’t see anything but blurry light above. My tight uniform is making movement difficult. It’s probably only been seconds. But my fear draws it out into so much longer. ‘Water, why did it have to be water…’ I would have rather hit the concrete. Risked broken bones or possible concussion. Anything but the pool. Drowning is my next biggest fear. For good reason. I’d never gotten over my fear of drowning after….

The water filled my nose and mouth, making me choke and gasp. I kicked my legs and moved my arms, fighting to stay afloat. But the water was too deep and I was getting tired fast. My lungs burned as I struggled to hold my breath. I was drowning in this dark, endless water. “No, no, no,” I thought desperately. “I can’t die here. I have to get back. I have to live.” But my strength was fading. The water pulled me down deeper and deeper. My chest felt like it was going to explode from holding my breath. Dark spots appeared in my vision, even though everything was already black.

It terrified me, and with good reason. Drowning is a horrific way to go out. Well, it is if you're conscious. This was something I knew from experience. The cold and desperate feeling as water invades your nose and mouth. The impossible attempt to stay calm and hold your dwindling breath. The pain of lungs utterly depleted of oxygen.

A soon he reaches the area where he can get them he thrust his arm aiming at the single fish. Unfortunately, he got nothing. The speed of the fish is faster than his slow wiggly arm. It's about time for him to gather some air or else he would faint again or worse he might die this time. It's about three minutes underwater when he holds his breath and that's a great feat from someone who almost dies from drowning. I guess it's true that 'What doesn't kill you, it will make you stronger.' - Friedrich Nietzsche (Grghh... My body feels heavy again.)

Valenn asked. Kierson looked at it and examined it closely. He then shook his head. “It’s just normal swelling. Normally it wouldn’t cause the person to die but if her head was trapped underwater, her attempt to deter herself from it might result in excessive swelling. But this mild lump doesn’t seem like it. Moreover, she didn’t die from drowning.” Valenn gulped as a conclusion came to his mind. “The aquarium and the tube.” Vishnu tilted his head. “They couldn’t be that cruel, Doctor.”

They are harmless and even have been reported to be friendly to humans on many reports from sea farers. "The couple are certain one Dolphin was drowning." "Drowning? How can a Dolphin drown?" "Aquatic animals don't drown! It is land animals and humans that-" A giant hand seemed to have squeezed the air out of my lungs. All the air in them seemed to rush into my ears with a whoosh. It felt I had been shot in the cold as a series of images seemed to play in my mind. Zavi in pain and making a desperate attempt to live. Closing my eyes and swallowing air through my mouth did not help. No matter how hard I tried the images just did not go away.

Brie I open my eyes as I’m falling through thin air. I don’t even have time to scream before my body drops into water. Deep, rough water that drags me under the second I suck in a salty breath. I flail against the waves, trying to find the surface, but the undercurrent drags me down again, pulling me by my dress and tossing me upside down. My head hits something hard, and I screech, but the sound is empty. I suck in water, choking, and realize quite suddenly that I’m drowning.

“Just do not go out any further, please. Don’t risk your life when you are just getting to live it.” “Sapphire, before you go, earlier you said ‘drown’, what does this word mean?” “To drown is to be submerged in water until you breath it in and die or almost die. It’s also used to described being suffocated by something, usually unpleasant.” “Sapphire, was I drowning in the darkness till you came?” “Yes, Evangeline. I believe you were drowning in your own darkness, even though you did not know it yet.” Sapphire’s voice was now full of sadness again. “I must sleep now. Please consider hiding and sleeping as well, we will both need our strength for the journey ahead.”
