At the Beach
Fandom: Primeval
Title: At the Beach
Challenge: 582
Word Count: 100
Character: Stephen
Rating: U
The crowds had left the beach long before Stephen had arrived, fleeing in panic from the scorpion. The creature was dead now and whatever clean-up crew the ARC was sending was yet to arrive. Stephen stood entirely alone.
He stared at the waves crashing on the shore. They were relentless and overwhelming.
Did his former colleagues, his former friends, know what he felt like? Did they think he'd just wandered off to his future, waving angrily at them as he left? Did they understand he felt like he was barely keeping his head above the water?
Not waving, but drowning.
