It’s a good thing I can hold my breath for a long time. I thought bitterly. I swam straighht down, back in my trance. It only took me a few minutes to reach the bottom. I looked back up towards the surface, They may not be able to swim, but They can walk on water!

James! I wanted to help him so bad, but I had to get this book as far away from them as possible! I looked around the bottom of the lake. There had to be somewhere I could go and get rid of this book

Oh please, God. Let us survive this. I prayed as my breath supply slowly dwindled.

Then I saw it. Only a few meters from where I was hovering was a small hole. I swam over to it and went in. It was a cavern, and there was air! I thanked the Lord with all my heart.

As I lay on the cold cavern floor, my lungs rejocing with the desired air, I heard it. A long, blood-curdling scream that didn’t sound very far away at all. JAMES ?!
