Chapter 10

Within a split second, every molecule of air disappeared from Basheba’s reality. Icy water filled the place it had once been. The rapids took them instantly, toppling them endlessly until it was impossible to tell which way was up. Light extinguished. All that remained was the crushing darkness. Basheba coiled tighter around Jeremiah, trying to contain the panicked man. Even brushing against the rocks wasn’t enough to stop him from thrashing. Burning coals ignited within her lungs as her body strained for air. At random, they dropped. Sharp waterfalls that took them deeper and sent them spiraling faster. Jeremiah dug his sharp elbow into Basheba’s ribs, breaking free of her grip to rear up for air. The push of his ribs said that he managed to choke down a gasp. A second later, they dropped again, stopped by an unrelenting stone.

Water pelted Basheba’s back, pinning her in place with the water’s surface bombarding their faces. Grinding her teeth, she fought against the push to grapple with Jeremiah.

“Don’t lose the box!” Basheba ordered, half drowning on the water that rushed into her mouth.

“Get off of me!”

Bloody Cranes! Basheba snarled to herself as she grabbled along his arm, trying to find the box herself. Jeremiah's resistance had them both slip back into the raging current. Basheba clutched her knife, her other hand desperately searching the frothing liquid for the Crane. He brushed against her fingertips but was never close enough for her to get a decent grip.

Something unseen looped around Basheba’s ankle. Before she could fight, she was dragged down, further away from everything but the raging current. Battered by the water, she coiled down on herself, trying to slash at whatever had latched onto her. Pain sliced across her ankle. Her blood seeped out to warm the water. She could almost smell the copper tang and knew she wouldn’t be the only one. It fed her desperation. Her body quaked with the need to breathe. She pulled her leg up as best she could and struck out again. Pain radiated up her leg as the knife cut into her flesh. A scream ripped from her clenched teeth in a series of bubbles, leaving her achingly empty.

Something battered against her spine. She twisted, realizing half a second later that it was too soft to be a stone. Hands grappled over her arms and legs, digging into her flesh as they wrestled to keep their hold. The darkness shrouded her attackers. Unable to see, to breath, she slashed wildly. The knife raked across her skin. Each spike of pain fed her panic until she soon lost all thought of anything beyond cutting herself free.

Blue light broke through the darkness. A brilliant radiance that pulsated from the tendril that snaked around her waist. The hands upon her grew desperate, shredding at her skin in their attempt to keep her in their possession. No! Basheba screamed it within her head, begging for it to be heard beyond herself. Not for this! The idea that Isaac’s death would only buy her a bit of trivial assistance threw her into a panicked rage.
