100 Words a Day 1213


The crash of the sub striking the floor of the Black Sea reverberated throughout the ship. The lights flickered.

“Everyone alright? Damage report!” someone screamed over the PA.

“You okay?” Kitteridge called to James, head ringing from hitting the wall.

James didn’t answer.

 “James?”

Nothing.

“James?” Kitteridge called again, stumbling towards the front of the torpedo room.

“Here,” James croaked. He was trapped underneath a torpedo that had slipped its chain.

“Shit,” Kitteridge said. He rushed towards James, then stopped and scrambled back towards the horn.

“I need help down here!”

“What’s wrong Kitteridge?”

“It’s James. He’s under a torpedo.”
