He shrieked in horrified shock as he slipped into the hole in the ice, his body getting sumerged in freezing water, the cold liquid soaking through his layers of clothes, chilling him to his bones.

But the thing was, he didn't slip on accident, someone pushed him in.

He quickly swam up to the surface, his legs quickly going numb and shaky. He clawed at the ice with his now pale fingers, gritting his teeth as he pushed himself up, the other half of his body still in the ice cold water. The frost bit into him, and his lips were trembling uncontrollably. He glanced up at his brother, he gave a look of shock, and mouthed, his voice gone of the cold,

"Help me."

But his brother only smirked triumphantly, and stepped on his unfeeling fingers, hard.

He gaped at his brother, his hopes of the whole fiasco being a prank dripping away, and tried to yank his unresponsive fingers out, but it was futile.

His brother squatted beside him, a evil sneer playing on his lips, little puffs of air coming out of his mouth as he inhaled. He struggled, still trying to push himself out of the lake, begging his brother with pleading eyes to drop the act and help him.

The brother did exactly opposite. He cruelly pried his fingers off the ice, and in a hard thrust, pushed him under. He gasped, taking a small breath of air, trying to swim to the surface, but found out that his traitorous brother had covered the whole up. He swam up, glancing at the foggy picture of his brother, pain spiking at his lungs, and the bitter cold water stinging his pupiless eyes.

Placing a hand under the smooth ice,he beseeched his brother to save him, but the look that was returned was one full of hate, jealousy and pride. Knowing that he was a lost cause, he ceased all activities, the cold numbing his entire body. Sinking slowly to the bottom, a steady throb of pain that was getting increasingly worse, he could only muster enough energy to string this word into existence in his mind.

"Why?"

Welp. That happened.
