Kiddo’s eye’s popped open. She surged forward, knocking two creatures away from her. Another creature, grabbed her from behind and looped a thin rope around her neck, pulling tight. Kiddo was yanked backwards and her hands were seized and tied sending a pale cloud of blood into the water from a bite on her arm.
"Get her legs!" Someone yelled.
Kiddo kicked frantically, landing a blow into the face of one of the creatures. The line around her neck pulled tight and she started to get lightheaded. Her eyes bulged and she groped at her neck. A creature pounced on her legs, immobilizing her completely.
