breath just before my head was pulled under. Spart ofrealized it would probably be the last air I would ever take.
I tried to fight, but it was useless. I was dragged deeper and deeper.
Whatever was wrapped around my leg was thick as my arm and slimy. It had a hold onlike I’d never felt before. Little stinging pricks went around my leg everywhere the thing touched.
Now I knew what would kill me, drowning. I fought the urge to breath; it was so strong. I needed air badly. That first breath underwater would be my Last. I put it off as long as I could.

I’d never felt such burning as when he brought the fiery metal down over the mass, but each the moved it away a Little more fell off my leg.
Looking up I saw my owners standing over me. They looked Like they were all seething mad and soaked to the skin. The pain radiated up from my leg again and I watched the moon slowly fade out of sight.
This was an awful nightmare, I just wanted it to end. Why couldn’t I die like a normal person and not have a nightmare first?
Finally, blackness took over and I welcomed the calm that it brought. seb
