At this point, Sumire is more frustrated than she is traumatized. She clamps her mouth firmly shut upon reviving to avoid a repeat of her previous double death, and immediately starts to propel herself up. Of course, it's easier said than done when one of her arms is occupied with Yona's corpse. This time, they're only a few feet away from the surface when Sumire's lungs seize up and she takes a big gulp of water. Then she's fading, fading — gone.
