22. In The Rapids
Moving down the water
John is drifting out of sight,
Its only at the turning point
That you find out how you fight.
In the cold, feel the cold
all around
And the rush of crashing water
Surrounds me with its sound.
Striking out
to reach you
I can't get through to the other side,
When you're racing in the rapids
There's only one way, thats to ride.
Taken down, taken down
by the undertow
I'm spiralled down the river bed,
My fire is burning low.
Catching hold of a rock that's firm,
I'm waiting for John to be carried past.
We hold together, hold together and shoot the rapids fast.
And when the waters slow down
The dark and the deep
have no-one, no-one, no-one, no-one
no-one left to keep.
Hang on John! We're out of this at last.
Somethings changed, that's not your face. It's
mine - it's mine!
He dives down into the cold water. At first
he is thrown onto the rocks, and pulled under the water by a
fast moving channel, which takes him right past John, down river.
Rael manages to grab a rock, pull himself to the surface
and catch his breath. As John is carried past, Rael throws himself
in again and catches hold of his arm. He knocks John unconscious
and then locking themselves together, he rides the rapids into
the slow running water, where he can swim to safety.
But as he hauls his brother's limp body onto the bank he
lies him out and looks hopefully into his eyes for a sign of
life. He staggers back in recoil, for staring at him with eyes
wide open is not John's face - but his own.
Rael cannot look away from those eyes, mesmerized by his
own image. In a quick movement, his consciousness darts from
one face to the other, then back again, until his presence is
no longer solidly contained in one or the other. In this fluid
state he observes both bodies outlined in yellow and the surrounding
scenery melting into a purple haze. With a sudden rush of energy
up both spinal columns, their bodies, as well, finally dissolve
into the haze.
