*~ Deserted: A New Start

Soon, Liza found something that was sturdy. She made a lasso looking thing then swung it. Miss. She did it again, hit! She then pulled and tied the other end around her waist. She started to climb. She slipped, but kept going. That was the only thing on her mind. Get away.

Liza quickly got the hang of it and focused on the one thing. Everything else was silent, nonexistent.

@seaangel

Despite the wooziness she felt, Charlie looked up. Why was she climbing away?

She tried to scream out to the girl for her to stay on the ground. But she was too far away.

Focus. Get the survivors to safety... Then salvage what they could from the wreckage... That was the plan. But why did it seem so hard?

Ruki was in hysteria "If you haven't noticed," she shrieked "I have a mental problem! And you're not making it better by saying my trigger words!"

The whole world was a mixture of monsters and fear. Vaguely, Ruki was aware of flames and blood, but those were so common that it had almost no effect on her, considering she was usually the one to cause them.

Larka walked up to Charlie, still limping alittle. "Hey, are you ok?" she asked "You look sick or something." she said "Do you need help?" she asked though they all needed help Charlie looked like she was about to fall over.

Everything seemed strangely calm. There was no sound at all, and Lutz wondered why. Maybe this was another dream. But no, the pain was too real.
One hand at a time, he managed to push his way along the ground. The floor was on a slope, so instictively he headed uphill along the aisle, away from the burning. His right hand was injured, so his progress was very slow.
Suddenly his left hand came into contact with something... Sticky and warm. Lutz recoiled quickly and stopped moving, not daring to open his eyes and look.

seaangel • 24 April 2012 at 7:57 PM

Liza kept climbing and ended up at the top. She looked around. 'Peace.' She saw a meadow with a forest at the edges. She now looked for a source of water. Clean water.

Liza got to the meadow and stopped. She lied down on the soft grass and sighed. She started to cry. To let out her feelings.

april__ • 24 April 2012 at 7:57 PM

@celeste @carter

"Trigger words?" Charlie seethed. "There are people dying around us and you're worried about trigger words." Whether this girl had a mental problem or not, didn't mean anything right now.

"I don't have time for this," Charlie hissed. "I need to focus on the many rather than just one. Go to the rocks. I'm not telling you again."

Charlie turned around to go and try and help someone else when she walked into another girl. "Help... Yes. Talk to her please," Charlie gestured towards Ruki. "I need you and her to go to the safety of those rocks over there," she said pointing towards the rocks. "If you get there before the girl climbing up the wall over there reaches the top, please tell her to come down. We need to stay together. We have no idea what could be on this island."

She knew by help the girl was asking about how she was doing physically. But she needed to help the others. Her first aid could come in useful, and it was her job. It always had been. "I'm going to try and round up some others."

She felt a bit better telling someone else to look out for the hysterical girl. She didn't have time to focus on one girl, but she also didn't want to leave her to die.

Despite the danger, she headed towards the plane. She had to check to see if anyone was in need of aid.

Larka had no idea what she was talking about "what?" she breathed and looked around. She could not see any other girl around here so she just shrughed and took her violin case. She walked up and climbed on a large rock "Music, has more power than you think, Larka." the words of her Violin teacher echoed in her mind. She opend her case and played loudly hoping it would calm everyone enough for them to figure out what happend.

april__ • 24 April 2012 at 8:09 PM

@carter

*cough* Charlie was talking to Ruki when you came over. Charlie left Ruki because she didn't have time to try and calm her down. So she asked you to try and get her away to the rocks far away from the plane. XD

asi • 24 April 2012 at 8:17 PM

Lutz needed to move. He hadn't noticed earlier, but the plane was getting hotter... And smoky. He knew enough about fires to know that inhaling the smoke was bad. There was something he needed to do, to avoid breathing it in... But he couldn't remember what! And what's worse, when he tried to move forward using that right arm, pain shot up it again, freezing him up.
There was something Lutz had never admitted to, something much more serious than some depression troubles. He'd convinced himself he was over it. Seems not.
Now's not the time for this! he thought desperately. Steeling himself, he started again to move forward, carefully making his way around what he truly hoped was not what he thought it was. His hearing seemed to be returning, and he heard the roar of the fire, making him move faster.
Then he heard a strange sound. Music. Lutz immediately came to the conclusion he was dying. So why did it still hurt so much?

april__ • 24 April 2012 at 8:20 PM

@asi

Charlie began to move quickly through the chaos. The bodies...

She saw some survivors attempting to get away, and they all seemed in physical condition. A part of her was worried that people were still trapped in that plane. Though, she was sure the crash would have caused most of them to fall onto the sand.

There was still a chance however. "Hello?" Charlie called out among the chaos. "Is everyone okay?"

Obviously no one was okay. But she wasn't asking for mental reads or emotional check ups right now. She wanted to make sure no one else died in this disaster. "We need to all get away from here!"

asi • 24 April 2012 at 8:30 PM

@April__

Lutz was close to giving up. The pain coupled with his fear and shock were potent enough to kill. He could hear the music calling him away, to simply fall into unconsciousness, when it was broken by the sound of someone's voice.
"Hello? Is everyone okay?" Lutz reached out weakly towards the sound. Had he been thinking clearly, he might have laughed at the choice of words.
"We need to all get away from here!"
He couldn't agree more. Conjuring up strength he didn't know he had, he managed to use a chair to pull himself upright, a feat he would have deemed impossible just a few seconds ago. He found his voice. "Help!" he yelled.

april__ • 24 April 2012 at 8:33 PM

@asi

Charlie, having felt a bit awkward to be shouting out like that, was shocked to hear a response. That shock wore off quickly, and it had to because someone was in trouble.

The voice? Where had it come from? Her eyes scanned quickly, it seemed to be from her left but all that was on her left was the plane. Someone was trapped inside! She should have followed her instincts.

"Hang on!" she shouted, running towards the plane. The fact the plane had ripped in half made it easy to find her way in but that was about it. The smoke was so thick, she couldn't see in front of her.

"Where are you?" she called out, entering the place on her hands and knees. She winced as she heard the terrifying sounds. They had to get out of here fast. Who knew what could happen?

Coughing, she tried to feel her way around. It was hard trying to walk a bit upwards, and she couldn't help but fear that the plane, or what was left of it at least, would tip over, soon.

celeste • 24 April 2012 at 8:40 PM

@april__

"No." Ruki answered "Not just any trigger words. I can kill with those, you know!" She was angry - not because she was used to being pampered and treated well, but because these trigger words actually meant something, and she was aware of that. Only too well, she supposed.

As though in a dream, Ruki stumbled around, before decidedly heading towards the rocks. Whatever. Might as well be safe, even though her death would probably benefit everyone else around her. Yeah. Whatever.

wolfmilk • 24 April 2012 at 8:46 PM

(( @april__ Here's my intro. Kinda depressing...))

Jude lay on his aunt's chest. A rough jolt had abruptly woken Jude from his peaceful slumber. Blinking, the little boy opened his eyes and took in his surroundings. Trees, leaves, vines, bushes... It looked like the jungle movie which he used to watch with his daddy.

He sat up and tried to wake up his auntie, having a million questions to ask her. Where was he? What is this place? Was this where he was going? What time will breakfast be? Shaking his aunt's arm, Jude began to notice the pale cold skin of the woman. His lower lip trembled with fear. She looked like his late brother. Cold, pale, unmoving. She wasn't his aunt. His aunt was full of life and laughter - not this motionless figure.

That was when the sickly smell hit him. The rusty nauseous smell of blood. Jude scrambled away from the body with fear. Dread over came the little boy and he threw back his head.

And screamed.

asi • 24 April 2012 at 8:55 PM

@April__

"Her-" he started to reply, before he was interrupted by a violent coughing fit. Lutz's knees buckled all of a sudden; luckily he had still been clinging into the seat and managed to stay upright. With force of will, he recovered quickly and gingerly took a couple of small shuffling steps in the direction the voice had came from. As soon as he regained his own he called out again, "Here!" although it was getting weaker, due to the foul black smoke.

wolfmilk • 24 April 2012 at 9:08 PM

@asi @april__

Jude's scream reverberated through the forest and all birds nearby fell silent. He stopped and knew that his first priority was to find help. Screaming would do nothing.

Jude heard someone yell somewhere in the dense foliage and stumbled in the direction of it, unable to be in the presence of his late aunt any longer. He wanted to go home. Maybe these people could help him.

Jude was unexperienced this forest terrain and he frequently tripped over the thick tree roots. He caught himself as he was about to fall and throughout his journey through the forest he kept chanting the same words in his head over and over again.

Auntie is in a better place now... Auntie is in a better place now...

april__ • 24 April 2012 at 11:28 PM

@asi

Somehow, Charlie managed to make her way through the smoke. She felt out in front of her carefully until she finally felt another human.

"We need to get you out of here," she said calmly, managed to stand up. It took a lot of work, but she manuvered through some of the seats to end up behind the guy.

Suddenly, she was behind him. "Where are you hurt?" she asked, knowing she may very well need to help him forward.


((Sorry, I suddenly out of nowhere just got very ill. :/))

asi • 24 April 2012 at 11:51 PM

@april__ ((OOC: Oh, that sucks! 😱 Feeling better, I hope?))

Lutz almost replied jokingly with a rhetorical question asking where he wasn't, but he knew they didn't have time for small-talk. "Nowhere important, I don't think. Do you know how?" he asked in-between coughs. Oh, so now heads weren't important? he thought ironically to himself, knowing that he'd meant anything needed to get out.

april__ • 25 April 2012 at 12:47 AM

@asi

"We'll get out of here faster if you stand, but crawling is the best way to avoid smoke. Which do you think you're able to do more?" Charlie asked, her arms out ready to brace him.

"I can help you in any way you need. We're not far from the exit here. It didn't take me long to get to you."

Shifting her weight, Charlie coughed. The smoke was starting to sting her eyes, she squeezed her eyes shut again and prayed that somehow they could manage get out.


((Bleh, not really. But thanks for asking. XD))

asi • 25 April 2012 at 1:05 AM

@April__

As much as Lutz would rather crawl, the plane was definitely getting hotter, and the smoke getting thicker. And after having parents aspiring to have a doctor as a son, he had a pretty good idea of the permanent damage breathing in the smoke could do if he was in here much longer. For instance, brain damage and harm to the lungs.
Whereas he didn't know how badly he was hurt and could make it worse.
He'd take the lesser of two evils. "I'll walk- you lead the way- quickly," he wanted to cough to clear his throat, but he felt weak and didn't risk trying, instead his voice sounded horribly like sandpaper being rubbed against wood, but that was the least of his concerns right now; or at least not at the top of the list.

Name: Lily Cilinos
Gender: Female
Role: Doctor
Age: 19
Lily is a nurse who worked in a hospital in Florida she was going to another hospital when this crash happened, she wasn't as injured as everyone else but she still saved about 5 people. she tried to help everyone else but half of the plane's members had died. so she felt sad to see so many people die that she tried to help as much as she could.

april__ • 25 April 2012 at 1:09 AM

@asi

Charlie nodded, though he couldn't see her and began walking down backwards, facing him so that she could catch him if he tumbled.

It was hard to walk backwards, and she found herself kicking stuff out of the way hoping she could make it easier for him.

She could feel the bit of fresh air in her lungs, and she knew they were close.

"Just a bit further," she said encouragingly, trying not to cough.

candyluver6789 • 25 April 2012 at 1:23 AM

Lily saw Charlie trying to shruggle to get out and coughing a lot tried to go over to them but a chair fell in the way and Lily felt like she was going to die in the horrible crash.
but, then a man came over to her and helped her with the chair when they were she went over to her bag and pulled out 2 of her Surgical Masks.
she put one on her and the man's mouths and they weren't breathing too much smoke anymore.

april__ • 25 April 2012 at 1:28 AM

@candyluver6789

I think 19 might be too young to play the Doctor role, and have been a nurse.

asi • 25 April 2012 at 1:32 AM

@April__

Using the seats as something in between handrails and crutches, Lutz followed the woman with a balanced mixture of haste and care. He stumbled twice, not aided by the fact that the smoke had rendered him blind, and at one point he put too much weight on his bad hand; luckily he COULDN'T cry out anymore, he didn't want her to worry and be even more of a burden than he already was. Lutz realized a true gentleman should have told her to go ahead and get out herself ages ago, but he wasn't too squeamish to have problems admitting he wasn't one.

april__ • 25 April 2012 at 1:36 AM

@asi

When she reached the edge of the plane, she nearly fell out. She couldn't see. "All right, I'm going to jump down then I can help you down, okay?"

It took her longer than she would have liked, and she didn't want to admit that she was panicked. It wasn't far to the ground, but it was far enough that if you missed the step down you'd tumble.

She decided to just go for it and jump. She narrowly missed the sharp metal and finally was standing on solid ground. Well, as solid as sand could be any ways. "Okay," she said, reaching out with her hands to try and find the boy again. "I'm here to help you."

She was anxious to get away from the smoke, and to see if there were more survivors. She'd seen about five by the rocks before going into the plane. She hoped more had made it there now.

asi • 25 April 2012 at 2:50 AM

@April ((OOC: Sorry, had to go somewhere, back now.))

After quickly disguising the dismay Lutz felt at the prospect of the jump with an optimistic smile, he decided to follow her example and just go for it, skipping the pep talk that would have just made him more nervous.
His land was awkward and the impact was painfully jarring, and if he hadn't known better he might have convinced himelf he'd broken a leg or something, but he was just so relieved to be out of that death trap Lutz managed to ignore it, and continue pretending he was all right.
He didn't look all right. The dimness of the plane had made him unable to see his injuries, and the sight of them made him feel sick, even though he knew they looked worse than they really were.
The main problem was that he could feel that panic rising, the one he thought had been over. Lutz swallowed, knowing they weren't out of the woods yet. Straightening up was hard. He felt ashamed, but he found the woman's shoulder and leaned on her for support.

jupiter_hollow • 25 April 2012 at 6:46 AM

@april__ Intro 😸 You really did go fast D:

The sun slowly set behind the pale mountains, red tints appearing in the sky. The sunset coloured the gorgeous sandy beach in a pinkish hue, the sea appearing to turn to a soft lavender. Not one soul in sight, the island seemed deserted, an eerie forest nerby adding to the ghostly silence of the sunset. Only the waves were splashing against the rocky shore, the sound echoing throughout the empty beach.

A shadow suddenly appeared on the forest background, sneaking behind the bushes, hiding in the safe darkness of the tropical trees. Two black eyes, wide and wary, darted around the beach, inspecting the shore for any danger.

The figure's gaze was fixed on the remains of a sunken ship that floated atop the water in the distance. The waves had washed off a few suitcases and two backpacks that lay carelessly on the beach.

Not sparing a second, Aizel hurried to the bagage and quickly opened her discoveries, gathering all the dry and usable things, stuffing them in her own backpack. She found some food too, while digging past the clothes and items in one of the purses that lay around. Her clothes were ripped and soaked with water and her own blood so she quickly changed into the new clothes and bandaged the gash in her arm with a sheet she had fetched out of one suitcase.
