Tuhua Diary day 2

Day 2

Dear diary,

Continued . . .

Aching, Zuleka, Anna and me stumbled into the bush. Zuleka was still in shock. he was gasping, and it looked to me as if she was having an asthma attack.But i knew she wasn't asthmatic.
We continued to hobble along like elderly people. We were in short supply of water, there was only a few mouthfuls left.
Suddenly a piercing noise came from next to me. The startling and slightly defeaning sound was Anna, squealing in delight.
I wondered wht she had seen, and looked in the direction Anna was.
There, behind a hill, was a lake.
my heart pounded, faster, faster, my body shook, unable to function correctly.
my mind went blank, my body still.

My eyes burst open, and i felt strange, different.
Zuleka and Anna helped me up.
I walked, dizzily. to the lake.
It didn't look very deep, but like a hole of emptiness, the water was black.
I bent down, filled up the drink bottle we had, and drank.
Ewwwwwwwwwwwww . . .
I spat it out. I wished as hard as I could that it was drinkable. The thirstiness was eating me up inside. My Fingers tingled. i took another sip. WIERD! it waas refreshing, nice, clean fresh water.
I Had magical powers!
