Jaws 5: Tentacles Take Glencola
WHO: Martin Blackwood, Maddy Perez, Levi Ackerman, and Ishigami Senku
WHAT: A harrowing trip to rescue a damsel in distress.
WHEN: Day 022
WHERE: The Shore and the Ocean
WARNINGS: injuries, shark attack
NOTES: Events follow this search request.
The start of the trip is a promising one. Levi's efforts to drag the raft to the shore have made it relatively simple to get prepare to set sail. Or set... paddle. Getting the raft past the wavebreak is a bit of trouble, but there's not too much issue there.
A few items of interest are noted on the paddle over, and maybe even a few of them are pulled up on the deck of the raft to be brought with the group on their way back.
Finding Maddy doesn't take long, not with the faint traces of blood in the water and a potentially hysterical teen trying to flag them down. But then the shark attacks. A sizable creature cuts through the surf, ready to attack them, the scent of Maddy's blood in its nose.
There's a mad dash to get out of the surf where Levi quickly tends to wounds, and then another larger shark-like creature with tentacles and two dorsal fins appears and chases the smaller shark off. Presumably to eat it.
Counting their lucky stars, the group gets Maddy onto the raft and hauls ass back to the west, hugging the shoreline as much as they can and keeping watch for more sharks. It's a slog to get the raft out of the surf and then carry Maddy to the bungalows, but they manage it. Rescue accomplished with only a few people exhausted for the journey.

At least he doesn't even flinch from the screaming -- heard plenty of that -- or the hand clutching at his arm, and sutures the cut with a steady hand, fully in focus. It only takes a few more stitches and he's pulling on the ends, tying off the thread and pouring some more disinfectant over it before reaching for the towels.
The disinfected piece of towel comes first, then a bigger, dry piece that covers it fully. Then he wraps it up with some long, narrow strips to hold the bandage in place, carefully testing the pressure to make sure it's enough to stop her from bleeding out but not so tight than the circulation in the rest of the arm is compromised.
Alright. This should be good.
He finishes it with a double knot, and only then glances at the hand still clutching at him, though he doesn't do anything to remove it. He just looks... a bit awkward, maybe, like he's not sure what to do about it.
"All done. You can spit that out now."
