"Damn," Nabiki muttered as she tread water. "I'd better head back."
She turned around and started to swim back, but found it difficult and tiring to get any distance. And then it hit her, she knew what was going on.
"I'm in a current," she gasped, trying to keep calm. "What are you supposed to do...swim under it?"
That sounded right to her so she took a deep breath and dived downward into the water. This was a terrible mistake, for the current above was strong, but manageable even for her, as long as she didn't panic.
Once she got far enough underwater, however, she was practically torn away like a rag doll. Her breath blew out of her lungs in surprise and she reflexively gasped, taking in a lung full of water and making the situation more grim.
She was panicking and choking as something large slammed into her and she felt her arm crushed firmly against her side. There was no pain simply because she was too close to passing out to notice it.
