Snippet #2190505

Helena was sitting near Golden river. The Sun was painting the little drops at the end of the small waterfalls in different rainbow colors. Its beams were swimming around the river, so were the potamides (river nymphs).

Helena was covered in blood, her long brown hair was messy and she had a few scratches on her face. It was obvious - she had a fight. The woman got in the river and started washing herself from the blood. A potamide splashed her and giggled. "Join us!" she said. "Come on! Join us!" Helena looked at the nymph, whose skin turned grey and wrinkled, her eyes turned pitch black, and her voice could scar for life even the strongest people in the world. "JOIN US!" she replied. The other nymphs turned into the same monsters. They were all screaming and raising hands towards Helena, who immediately took her daggers. One nymph grabbed her leg and started swimming deeper and deeper. Before Helena ran out of air, she scratched the potamide's hand in order to let herself go. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!" screamed the nymphs. Her sisters swam towards Helena. They were furious for hurting one of them. They wanted revenge.

The surface was slowly turning red. Helena was swimming up and defending herself by scratching deeply the nymphs. She still didn't cause them deadly damages. Eventually, the woman could taste the air again. She grabbed the shore and tried to escape, but was pulled down by the potemides several times. After a few minutes of struggling, she finally felt land under her feet.
