John struggled to the surface of the water, or at least what he thought was the surface. Yes it was. He came up and gasped for air, shivering. One word went through his head. Lifeboat. There were a few scattered about. He saw other passengers going towards them. One floated by him and he snatched it, hauling himself in. He knew it! But at least he was alive. He held onto the lifeboat for dear life, as the water churned. Hopefully this was over soon.
