I drag Xavi from the water, thanking whoever was listening for our survival. I just hoped the rest would make it out alive.

Xavi's white fur clings to his lean body as he climbs up into the dry cove that doesn't seem to be affected by the waves. He shakes the water from his fur, spraying me with the salty droplets of the ocean before collapsing as he tries to catch his breath.

I watch the waves behind him. They were changing. Somehow slowing down and no longer acting as if they had a mind of their own.

"Magic?" I murmur, looking for the clouds that were usually left behind, but there was nothing.

The waves almost come to a standstill as a blood-curdling scream fills my ears.

"What the hell?"

I step back into the calm water, looking up at Indy as her body twists and turns in the air.

'What is she doing?' Xavi asks.

"Panicking."

I glance at the rocks slowly disappearing beneath the water rising around us. It was still and calm, almost like it was preparing to break Indy's fall.

"Is she doing this?" I ask Xavi as he swims towards me.

Xavi just stares as we tread water. 'I've never... I've only seen dark magic.'

Her back hits the water, sending up a huge spray. While the water bobs, I swim out to her and drag her into the shallows, pulling her floppy body from the water.

'Is she alive?' He asks as I check her airways.

I confirm, "Shock, I think. I have seen something like this before. The body shuts down when it can't process what
