Snippet #6972

Mr. Ducky roared at the giant thing again. It had totally ignored him, but he still felt like Sarah was in danger. He came back to himself as Sarah yelped in suprise. The cold seawater had reached his chest and touched her toes. She banged on his helmet sharply. "Mr. Ducky. I want out of the water now. Its not fun". Mr. Ducky crouched slightly, into a more defensive position and Sarah screamed. The water had reached her waist, and it pinned her small dress to her body. She hit him again but he ignored it. He slowly scooted through the water until he'd managed to follow the giant man through the tunnel and out past the large doorway. He had no interest in being caught in a sealed off tunnel.

Sarah hit Mr. Ducky sharply this time. The cold wasn't really a bother, she barely felt it, but she didn't want to get any wetter. Already water was creeping up her dress, and it clung to her sharply, throwing in sharp relief her frail body. She growled softly as the water reached her chin, and she pulled herself up onto Mr. Ducky's shoulder, pulling herself out of the water. She peered curiously at the giant metallic man who had ignored Mr. Ducky's battle cry. She'd been shocked when he roared. He only did it when confronted with a large number of Splicers, and he thought there was a chance he might lose the impending fight. She assumed it was mostly to reassure himself that he was strong. She smiled softly as she hugged Mr. Ducky's head hard, her frail arm doing next to nothing to impede his vision.
