As she shut the door behind her, Tripp stood off to her left and Snyder let out a loud holler to her right. He’d stepped out from the cover of the porch to an unprotected area by the stairs and spread his arms wide to the wind and rain battering at his body.
“Worse than a kid in a candy store.” She shook her head and watched the monstrous waves churn toward the shore. Tripp had been right, the ocean was rough and angry. The Gulf’s water had been turned a muddy brown from all the sand the storm was churning up and white foam flew through the air from the action of the water.
Snyder gave another holler as a powerful wave hit the pilings underneath their feet. The house creaked as the water started to recede and she grabbed for the door casing behind her for support. The powerful sea was determined to make its mark on the land, however, and slammed into the piling again before the water even had a chance to pull away.
Conditions had deteriorated faster than she’d expected and her stomach rolled as she noticed a row of waves that seemed to aim right for their location. This thing seemed to be growing more powerful by the minute.
“Get back!” She shouted over her shoulder for Snyder the same time Tripp yelled for her. Neither seemed to heed one another’s warning, and by the time she spun to call out to Snyder, the first of the waves slammed into the supports. The house shook violently as the water spray lofted high in the air, soaking everyone.
The house gave a horrific shake as the ferocious waves slammed into the support structure below their feet. A loud crack split the air and Kate was thrown into Tripp as everything seemed to fall out from under them.
