Novel & Cerita Drowning In An Endless Sea

“Choose him…” The last cluster of the two words dwelled echoing in my head as my body drops down the frozen waters. I can’t move, paralyzed yet consciously sinking to the depths of now deliquesced liquid. Drowning… I am drowning and the last breath escaped my mouth before I could take it. The ocean blue orb beams the brightest as my body descends. Before I could close my eyes, an image of the same shade appeared to like what I am currently witnessing is him and his eyes drawn across the vast azure. “General!”

Misshapen and ill-sized, my limbs flail as my body reframes itself, shrinking away from the pain, becoming what I once was. But I am no sea dragon. An earth dragon’s talons are useless in the ocean. So I fall like a stone. Desperately, I push against the currents, willing myself to kick, to rise, but I’m too weak against the undercurrents and find myself drawn deeper, and deeper, into the cold. I gasp for air, but there is none. Only water and darkness. I am drowning. I am dying. Until I see a star.

The last of my breath escaped, and I felt myself drift, lighter now, as if I were part of the sea itself. The world dimmed further, until there was nothing but blackness. The sea claimed me, its cold grip pulling me into its eternal embrace. The last thing I felt was the slow, final beat of my heart, echoing into the void. Then, there was nothing. In the depths of the ocean, I found the silence of death. The struggle ended, the betrayal complete. I was lost to the world above, swallowed by the sea, forever part of its dark, quiet depths. ***

A sharp pain exploded in the back of my skull, followed by a warm trickle of liquid seeping down my neck. Darkness swallowed me whole. When I came to, I found myself back in the villa where Lucas and I had spent our early days as newlyweds. Lucas was there, his expression unreadable as he handed me a glass of water. I drank it without a word. Drowsiness crept in almost immediately, and I sank back into the bed, my body surrendering to exhaustion. Half-conscious, I caught the sharp scent of alcohol and felt someone fumbling with my clothes.

"Please don't cry… It hurts me to see you like this." Perhaps he had loved me, I thought. But it didn't matter now. We had already reached the point of no return. Rain lashed down at midnight, yet Gabriel was still outside. He didn't have an umbrella, and he didn't seek shelter from the rain. He just stood stubbornly in the storm. I looked at his soaked figure through the peephole. He had been just as drenched the day he pulled me out of the ocean. Even so, I held firm and didn't let him inside.

My soul drifted up from a cage at the bottom of the ocean, somehow ending up near Isaac Thornton. Liam Donovan, his assistant, told Isaac, "Mr. Thornton, Mrs. Thornton's been in the ocean for a day and a night. The water's freezing; she might not make it." Isaac replied, "She's only been in the ocean for a day and a night, but my Mandy's gone forever." Liam tried again, "But the dead can't be brought back. If something happens to Mrs. Thornton..." Isaac threw a stack of papers at him.

And in no time I began to drown, my survival instincts kicked in and I started struggling against the water, fighting and Screaming for help till I could no longer scream and fight anymore and I slowly sank inside the sea and lost breath. The last thing on my mind was “is this how I’m going to die, I guess my wish is coming true.”

The terrifying spiritual pressure and the pressure of the seawater only made the fear in them grow as they sank lower and lower. They felt as if they would explode from the pressure in no time and had no choice but to channel their spiritual energy in an attempt to break out of the water. However, the powers within a domain contained the powers of the universe's laws. The power of the Funeral of Sky and Sea was capable of dragging everyone within the area of the water down into it, sinking endlessly. The terrifying power would drain them of their spiritual energy, and then cause them to explode. The fact that they were all battling above an ocean made this power all the more deadly.

This scene screams nostalgia, as Kendra’s body turned to ashes, Martini’s betrayal, Achilles’ and his men killing us, and now my baby… Until I felt the water is half of my body, the rain started to pour, from a weak to a strong one. Thunderstorms break the silence of the sky, seems like they were trying to mourn with me. “Jada!” My eyes were fixed on nowhere. “W-we’ll meet again my little angel. Wait for mommy okay?” The last set of waves dragged me to the deeper part of the ocean. I didn’t bother to swim or fight for this worthless life of mine.

Deep into the frozen water he sank, he felt a force pulling him deeper into the water, the water felt like a million bites deep into his skin, he tried to yell, his mouth opened but there was no sound coming out, he could feel himself drowning, he tried to struggle again, stretching his arms towards the only exit out of the frozen water, He tried to fight; to fight for his life, fight for all that he knew, for his future, for all the reasons he had to be alive, fight to see Viola once more; but the human body had it's limits. He felt his thoughts going elsewhere, into somewhere much more different than anything he'd felt before, it was a peace beyond compare, somehow he felt content, slowly
