Prompt: Bubbles

Mazu's eyes opened.
The light shimmered in speckles and beams around her.
Bubbles clouded most of her vision.

She pushed toward the sunlight.
Her lungs burning as she swam, being forced to hold after the energetic battle demanded more.
She broke the surface, gasping.
The burning of the once proud ship in the wreckage around her.
Screams. Cries from what was left of the crew.

She looked around.
Relief bloomed, seeing David clinging on a piece of flotsam.
She paddled over and joined him.

“Where's Pugsly?” She shouted over the noise.

David just looked at her with frightened eyes.
