Quicksand Fans

So there I was, up to my neck in quicksand. My new teacher thought she could get to me by walking over the unstable ground. Now she was stuck too. "Don't struggle," she said in a calm voice as we both settled deeper. She was trying her best to stay still and to keep calm herself too. "We won't sink if we relax. Just focus on me. Focus!"

Lips are a little too big, but otherwise not bad.

Following teacher's instructions to "focus" on her shouldn't be too difficult...

The colouring was off. I've fixed it to what it should be.

I love me a good 1st-person view in quicksand scenarios. This is great.

I was getting light-headed. Maybe it was me trying to keep my head above the surface. Or perhaps it was me being focused on the teacher. She stayed calm. Even as the quicksand crept up her waist. Even as the buttons on her blouse popped open. Even as the quicksand pushed up against her breasts. She continued to encourage me to keep my head up. Even if I didn't make it, this was probably the best way to go.

If I had a school teacher who looked like that, I would have never gotten any school work done.

Are they both doomed, I wonder?

As we sank deeper to our demise, a shout cries out. The rest of the class has found us. Immediately, they spring into action. The class captain spares no thought in charging out into the treacherous bog and forming the first link in the lifeline, with the other students running up to the quicksand's edge.

Let's hope the students don't get stuck themselves!
