What Lies Beneath the Sea

It told me once that it came from the distant void of space where stars lived and die but now, it found itself slumbering within the depths of earth's ocean, a being once worshipped by elder gods now better left forgotten. Teetering on the verge of waking but not quite, not yet... something that has fallen but never dies continues to wait till the oceans run dry so it may rise once more, till the sun extinguishes itself and all life ceases to exist in this world. It dreams of horrible, hopeful dreams. For this is the way of things beyond life on earth that should have died but failed to stay dead. For as long they still retain their will to exist, to live and still have bodies–however scattered, buried or broken–they would still remain in this world. …Until even death may die. What Lies Beneath the Sea is created by Ataraxia, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 15: What belongs to the sea, will always belong to the sea (part 3)

. . .

"Until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore, you will not know the terror of being forever lost at sea."

–Charles Cook

"Hey Den... are you feeling okay now?" Wilson asked when he stumbled upon Denise frowning over at her camera much later that night, "Don't you want to take a break?"

She hummed, distractedly, "What for?"

He pointedly glanced at the wall clock.

...it's 3:17 am.

Denise only shrugs.

They should be back by land hopefully before morning rises so Wilson really couldn't understand why on earth Denise's workaholic tendencies have to act up now, of all times (especially with her suddenly passing out on them because yeah, that was real freaky and he didn't want that happening ever again) and in such a godforsaken hour.

"...For real?"

"No, it's just... well, I had a bad dream," she muttered in a voice so low he almost didn't hear her over the distant roar of the waves, still not looking up at him from her camera.
