The wind picked up the speedboat, sending it atop the waves one moment, then plunging it to the bottom the next.
After crashing through wave after wave, Norton Jarvis laughed loudly and bragged even more arrogantly: "Come on, come on, let the storm grow fiercer."
Damn it.
Here I was, dizzy and disoriented, while he was enjoying the thrill of the adventure?
In a fit of resentment, Child only felt that the boat was like a kite with a broken string, plummeting down from above.
Their boat was indeed no longer on the water; it was dropping directly from the wave's crest, down, deep into the trough.
As the speedboat reconnected with the water, it shook violently, unable to withstand the impact. Child felt herself being heavily slammed onto the ground, her hand slipping off the metal pull ring.
She fell back into the cabin.
In a hurry to stabilize herself, she grabbed another pull ring inside the cabin.
