Without a second thought, Lucette plunged into the water after Lafayette. She was a small thing still, all bony limbs and needle teeth, but in this moment she considered none of that. It didn't matter.
Wherever he went, she followed.
The water was cold and unforgiving. It battered her thin limbs and tossed her off-course with clinical immediacy. Somewhere above the crashing sound of the waves, Lafayette's cry reached her. Her heart leapt painfully. Yet it spurred her on; Lucette found the strength to correct her course after a moment, lunging through the waves until her paws met a familiar soft form.
She reached for his scruff thoughtlessly, not yet considering that she would not have the strength to bring him to shore.
