Can you guess which character this is?
The rushing wave forced
his mouth and his eyes open. His vision blurred and he felt bitter, salty water
pummeling its way into his lungs. He felt himself tumbling over and over,
dragged under, pulled back down, caught in a death roll. Sharp rocks lacerated
his clothing and slashed fingers of blood across his skin.
Then, for a brief moment
there was air, and he howled like a dying man as water burst out of him, seconds
before the next monstrous wave crashed down upon his head, dragging him back under.
He thought of his
family, of his mother’s arms. He remember how she had kissed him in the days
before, told him how much he was loved.
The water battered him
again, and he saw himself being torn away from his family, dragged down into
a black mine of hell that would turn him into a monster with a dark, cancerous
hatred in his heart.
