After colliding into something, panic began sinking in as his arms and hands could find nothing solid. No dock and not even another whack at whatever it was he had just bumped into. Just wet. More wet. More nauseating moist slapping.

And there was shouting. So much shouting. And...what the actual hell? The professor was going to report them? FOR WHAT? Taking a swim in the boathouse waters? Not exactly intentional, professor. Too preoccupied with staying afloat, the Slytherin could not make out the shrill quiver to the professor's voice. But he could make out an unfamiliar voice that was talking way too bloody much. WAY too much. And then, beyond a reasonable doubt, he could make out the shrieks of Nina...and it honestly sounded like she was being eaten alive by something.

"NI---" Gurgle gurgle gurgle. Down went Eiji under the water, his twig like arms and legs unable to support him above water. Or so he thought. His feet had, in reality, managed to touch bottom a bit ago and when he leaned his head back the water circled around his face just so, covering his ears and creeping across his pale skin to over his eyebrows and submerging his chin. Perfectly capable of breathing...and yet...

....his instincts were telling him to kick, to jump. His mind was racing and entirely irrational. His lungs would surely start burning terribly soon, making him all the more desperate to get to that surface NOW. Despite the want to breathe, to inhale, he knew he couldn't. It would be fruitless to do so and so he could only float there, holding his breath and waiting for someone, anyone, to notice him. Water would fill his lungs, making him heavier and heavier...the terror was setting in, seizing his chest, and despite himself one ~~James~~ Eiji Rasting began to cry while feebly flailing his arms about.

Must get to the surface...must...must...

.............mommy.......

She was pretty sure it wasn't the same person who was screaming, so that put the count at...five including her? Six? Four? She couldn't do MATH right now! It was too late for those protection spells. They were all dead meat, she was sure of it. They were all goners.

Moments passed, which felt like an eternity, but after a few seconds of pure panic...she hadn't been engulfed in a swarm. A tiny, optimistic voice in her head reminded her that sitting here WAITING for them to get her was not going to solve anything. It was just going to make things easier for them! Biting her lip and hiccuping slightly due to the constant sobbing, she leaned forward and on all fours, started to...slowly crawl forward.

Something kept telling her she was alone, and her motions were futile. Eiji wasn't there. O'Hara wasn't there. Whoever else was talking wasn't really there. She'd been abandoned. She was alone, forever, just like she always was. No one cares about you. No, no, that voice just didn't feel right. She felt like that was a lie. She'd HEARD Eiji, she'd HEARD O'Hara, she knew they had to really be there.

Crawling along slowly, still panicking about the impending doom coming for her...she approached the edge of the water. She could hear splashing around, but couldn't see anything. She could barely see the water in front of her. The screaming had gotten louder, though. Someone else was in the water with Eiji. Ignoring the nagging voice that told her that this was all still a trick of the imagination, she bite her lip and swung her legs over the edge, dropping in to the cold lake a second later.

"Eiji?! EIJI!" she called out. If she knew it was Nina flailing around as well, she would have called out for her too. Thankfully, Nettie was able to swim decently well, despite the fact that she couldn't touch the bottom with her small size.

Don't even bother, they abandoned you, remember? You're all alone...

She shook her head, determined to not listen to the voice that was nagging and NAGGING her to give up and just sink to the bottom. She held her arms out in front of her, spinning around in the water and hoping she made contact with anything...

And hopefully she'd be safe in the water from the creepy crawlies, but the voice was telling her THAT was also a stupid, naive thought...

Even with the wall up Eniola could still hear the screams, could still see the shadows of the figures from the water playing on repeat in her mind. She was going crazy. She wanted to curl over, hands over her ears. She couldn't take it. What do we do? What do we do? What do we do?

SPOILER!!: O'Hara

"Professor! Professor! What are you seeing? What's happening?" Eni felt so helpless seeing her Professor this way.

Eniola was so shaken with everything she barely registered the professor grabbing her shoulders and yelling in her face. A broom? What? Why do we need a broom? In this fog? "Professor, trying to fly in this fog - I'd just as soon hit the wall of the castle as I would the middle of the Lake."

Regardless, she summoned her broom and hoped the professor had a plan. Eni certainly didn't. "Accio broom!"

She heard the girl shout about needing to get out of there and that the professor needed her wand. But how could they when they were surrounded - and even more humiliating, her wand wasn't with her. Being a history of magic professor who was notoriously bad at magic, she rarely felt the need to carry her wand around with her while exercising. But before she could even begin to formulate a reply, the things with the wands started chanting. It was a countdown. Only one thing could possibly happen at the end of the countdown. She knew in her heart that of everyone at the docks (or in the water), she alone was their victim. She alone would be inflated with air and sent bobbing into the sky like a balloon. "ENI!!!" she shrieked, turning to the girl with a delirious look in her eyes. "I am losing my mind! You have to get the others and get out of here!" The countdown continued. Now it was joined by clapping and hollering. Everyone was here. Everyone was watching her. They were all laughing and pointing at her. They were all going to watch her disappear into the sky. And everyone was the wrong age. This couldn't be real. She was going crazy, probably because of that oar. But then - Eni summoned a wall of stones. Just like that, the crowd couldn't see her anymore. Alice let go of Eni's hand and placed both her shaky hands on her shoulders. She tried to clear her mind. "CAN YOU SUMMON YOUR BROOM?" It was the first clear thought she had had since being hit with the oar. "Professor! Professor! What are you seeing? What's happening?" Eni felt so helpless seeing her Professor this way.
