Kicking harder Isaac swam even deeper into the lake. He saw shadows ahead that moved slowly as if luring him closer. Knowing better though he swam off to his left diving down deep. Below him was grassy weeds and he needed to get through those to get to the bottom of the lake where he was to find the treasure chests. Hoping to do so without cutting away any of the weeds, he pushed them apart as he swam deeper into the murky water.

Something caught his foot! Kicking he tried to free himself and turn over onto his back, his eyes showed fear, with not knowing what it was that had gotten him. Whatever it was clung harder and wrapped even more around his foot as he struggled to free it. It was too dark to tell! Reaching down he felt something slimy wrapped around it, tugging he yanked and kicked to free himself from whatever it was!
