Getting There

The pair of lint hammerhead sharks came at me as fast as bullets.
I swam so quick I couldn’t even see my hands paddling in the water.Apparently,that was enogh for the sharks.I didn’t see them behind me,slowing down.
I stopped swimming at ludacris speed and dove straight down towards where my oxygen tank fell.
I spotted it drifted down slowly.I grabbed it and used all my strenght to bolt out of the water.
I gasped for breat on the island and saw that high tide was coming in.
I checked to see if my tank was full then I headed out into the open ocean.I swam quickly and was doing well until a ginormous wave about 20 ft. tall knocked me off me good streak.
After that,I became worried and thought what would happen if my parents found out about my hostile uncle.
A storm was rolling at just the right time.NOT!
I was dodging all the debris that floated by.At least all of it except for a large,metal pole.
I got hit in the head and I started to be pulled down by an invisible force and I was sinking like the Titanic.
