Chapter 538 - 35

Not far off, Diego and Anuja are chatting amongst themselves. You spin around, and Addy is in sight too. So are you. You're getting a drink, looking around, probably to make sure Rex isn't around.

It's too weird to see yourself in the third person. You turn away.

Rex is staring at you. No, not at you. Right through you, to the other you.

"Petzeiros!" he shouts, then storms right through you, ready to start a fight. As his form passes through your body, everything dissolves.

You crash into the water.

Out on the water, a boat is completely still.

"Come on!" a familiar voice says as it messes with the vessel.

Rex is struggling to get the boat moving again. There is no sign of anybody else out here, other than you, and you aren't really here at all.

Without warning, the boat rocks violently.

"What the—" Rex starts, but is knocked clear off the boat the next time it moves.

He swims in your direction as the vessel continues to shake violently, his eyes wide in terror as he searches the water for signs of, what? Does he think sharks are doing this?

"You've got to be kidding me," he says as he swims away from the boat.

As he takes a deep breath and begins to swear again, his head is suddenly submerged as though someone has grabbed and dragged him down. His arms flail, and in the fleeting moments when his face emerges from the dark water, he screams for help that isn't going to come.

Then he goes under, and he stays under.

It's harder to watch than you thought it would be.
