68 Crescendo

Vanessa and Logan swam towards land. The music had a dark tone. Nobody knew where the attack was going to come from. But they all felt in their hearts that something was near.

"Yo!" yelled Jeff as the piano began playing a furious tone filled with rapid strokes of keys.

His eyes darted across the cave, seeing almost nothing except darkness. His heart raced migraines to his head in anticipation. Andres felt his heart pick up as he didn't know what to expect either.

Vanessa and Logan had reached the saturated ground, wringing out their clothes. They both realized that the cave was now right-side up.

Logan knew the gist of what was happening regarding the music but remained silent for their benefit. Vanessa noticed how panic was affecting everybody. Even the wet hairs on her back stood up as she heard the piano continue to play.

"Bro, let's just go!" yelled Jeff.

Andres shouted, "Everybody follow me".

"Wait!" shouted Vanessa, "Wee need to stay steady. No sprint".
