Da-dum Her stopped heart began to beat causing her frozen blood to flow once more. Her lungs desperately screamed out for oxygen. “Huu,” after taking a deep breath a large amount of dust came rushing down her throat. *cough*cough*cough* Just breathing is painful, and her head is starting to hurt from the lack of oxygen.
