"Yaaaa!!!!!"
Zane fell, landing on his face.
"Ow......!!!!"
He looked up, terrified. A wave had appeared and was about to hit the ship.
Not any wave. A big one.
"WAVE!!!!!"
He pointed at it before he got shoved back, holding Jolt in his arms. He looked around frantically, only seeing ocean before finding the surface.
"Oh, God....... Oh, God......"
The wave had taken him straight off the ship-- it was stopped, at least, and only for now. They were probably making sure everyone went to their cabins.
"Jolt, get on my back!"
The Pikachu obeyed, and Zane swan as fast as he could toward the boat. The waves pushed him back and he got saltwater in his nose and eyes. His arms quickly grew tired and he started to sink, but quickly resurfaced. His panic rose to the max when the boat began moving again.
"HEEEEEELLLLLLPPP!!!!!!!!!"
He tried to swim faster, but his legs and arms already burned.
"HELP ME!!!!!" He yelled again.
"No, no......"
A wave took him under, and he coughed and waved his arms and legs weakly.
"Help!! Help....."
Jolt laid out his backpack on the water.
"Good idea..."
Zane hung on to the backpack. The boat moved a lot quicker than he'd thought. The waves were pushing him back-- away from Johto, away from the boat, away from survival. And in the end, there was nothing he could do about it.
