Ocean
~~
As I struggled to breathe, I heard someone's voice calling out to me. My head was spinning and there was a rushing sound in my ears as if I was being pulled at hyper speed through time and space, but I managed to just barely hear their voice.
"Ocean!? Come on, Ocean, breathe." It was Doc, he was calling out to me with worry and fear. "Ocean! Can you hear me? Come on, take a breath Ocean. Breathe for me buddy. Come on." I felt someone holding onto my hands then. Those weren't Makai's hands that had mine, they were almost unfamiliar to me. And the feeling of someone so unfamiliar touching me made the panic set in even more.
"Ocean!?" Makai's called to me, his hands touching my face gently. "Please, baby, please breathe. Come on, Ocean, breathe. Take a breath. I am right here, Ocean. Come on, take a breath."
