"Oof-! D-Dammit! E-Ezra, try and get under the water, n-now! if it doesn't work just...hold onto me-!"
"Hf-t-the boat!!"
The waves were mercilessly crashing down on it, sending cargo and-fairly quickly people overboard.
"J-Jesus-! Listen Ezra, W-We'll worry about them later, just get underwater!-"
"B-But-"
Lightening struck the hull of the boat, causing it to light on fire
"Do you Want to die?! We can't help them if WERE dead!!"
"Y-You....you're....you're right...."
He went to swim over to Atlas-then saw the boy fall over the side of the boat
"HF-"
He quickly swam over, going to get him
Atlas had no choice but to follow
"Dammit Ezra, we need to go under, if you get close to the boat it'll crush you-!"
He grabbed the passed out boy under his arms, supporting him as he swam away from the boat with him, holding him above water. His movement was hindered, struggling a bit.
He swam behind him...but was then hit by some of the cargo, he had went under water...and slowly rose back up, thrashing against the harsh water :>
"Nnn-"
He dove between falling cargo and bits of ship, arms shaking
