Could he swim back, stay afloat long enough? He felt himself going under, then clutched the gillyweed tighter.
Just then, he saw the girl that had gone under float by, and he reached for her with one arm while hoping and praying they could all get back to land safely. Was she the last one? He wasn't sure. He had to keep hold of the elf and the girl while somehow making it back to shore with both of them. Was there a chance? At least he still had the gillyweed in his hand, it was his only hope.

"Help the girl first, I think she's passed out and we have to save her! I've got the elf, too." Antonio was feeling weak and kind of dizzy, but he was trying to hold on as best as he could.

She was taking in water, she was drowning! Gone was the calm of the water that had awoken her, this was turbulent, angry, beating her down, pulling her under. Suddenly she felt a strong hand clasp down on her arm as she was quickly pulled up, away from the raging tide. She grab onto the arm of another person, she didnt know who, but was nonetheless grateful. She felt solid dry ground meet her feet, and collapsed, coughing and wheezing.
"Thank you" she croaked, then coughed some more, trying to bring out whatever foul thing that she ingested in the water.
