Renton puked, realizing he was swimming in a lake full of blood. He immediately tried to make it to the shore, swimming erratically. "I need to warn everyone! I knew this place was evil!"

As he swam, streaks rippled across the lake, following his movements. Feeling the vibrations, he quickly grabbed the earth and pulled himself out, crawling on his hands and knees.

"Wait, how didn't I smash you?" Renton asked in confusion, realizing the erect flower looked unperturbed despite him placing his palm on it, "WAIT!"

He looked at his hand and found that the flower had punctured a hole through it!
