A/N: a prompt from soaked_in_stars
"The water is exactly at my head."
The most terrifying position. Fighting, struggling, not knowing if energy being expended is a futile attempt to forestall the inevitable. When legs ache with the effort of trying to hold the body afloat, and the mind races, calculating odds and scenarios and wondering just how long, exactly, constant motion can be maintained.
There's a comfort that comes with release. A serenity in the sink. Knowing that the fight, however valiant, is over.
But CJ's legs were strong, her mind clear, her calculations perfect. Serving at the pleasure of the President, she would swim.
