The Wrath of The Lamb
@cunningmongoose
The first sensation Hannibal registered was the shock of the water that stole the breath from his lungs, as though a hand had reached through his chest and squeezed his lungs of the air. He gasped and panted looking for Will in the roiling dark heaving waters that threatened to bury them forever in their watery graves. He spied the other man bobbing up and down as he fought to keep his head up, Hannibal flung his arm out attempting to grab the other man, they would attempt to swim to shore and plan what they would do once there.
Hannibal’s hand seized a fistful of his shirt and with a firm hold, he started to swim, his lungs burning and his limbs freezing as he fought to keep blood pumping. “Will!” He shouted fighting to be heard over the water and the roaring wind.
