Nova: We understand.

Chapter One: The Storm and the Island
How did I get into this mess? was all I could think. Antauri and the rest of the monkeys thought it would be a fun idea to sail on the ocean waters for a couple of weeks since we won the war of The Living and The Dead but I wasn't to keen on the idea. I had heard about shipwrecks and pirates in the waters of the ocean. But Antauri had convinced me we would be fine. I sighed and went to the deck.
Maybe going to the deck was a bad idea on my part. The monkeys were scrambling everywhere. "What's going on?" I asked.
"There's a storm," Antauri said. "We're preparing for a big hit. Please put this on," Antauri held out a life-jacket and I gulped. Was the storm really that bad?
"There she blows!" I heard Sprx shout. I looked. The storm was close. Closer then I wanted it.
"Shouldn't we try to find land?" I asked.
"No can do!" Gibson shouted. "There is no land for miles! We'll just have to brace out the storm!" The wind picked up and roared with ferociously. I was terrified. I had heard about people who got shipwrecked and were either dead or completely loony. I looked at Antauri and he held my hand.
"We'll be fine Chi," Antauri said. "We'll get out of this together,"
Boy was Antauri wrong.
The storm hit our ship full blast a couple hours later. The mast broke and Sprx let out a shriek. It had landed on Sprx's tail. While he tried to free himself, Otto and Gibson were trying to keep the ship from sinking, Nova was getting the survival packs out, and Antauri was holding on to my tightly while holding on the rail. Separation was the last thing we needed.
Nova handed Antauri and me a survival pack and went to help Sprx. I knew what she was thinking. The ship was going down and we were miles away from civilization. I prayed long and hard.
A huge wave crashed onto us and Antauri let go of me because of the force. "Antauri!" I shrieked before landing in the treacherous ocean.
"Chiro!" Antauri yelled. He tried to reach me but it was too late. I grabbed a wooden board and let the ocean carry me to wherever it wanted. I blacked out.
A few hours later…
I felt gritty sand underneath me. Sand? I thought. Wasn't I in the ocean? I opened my eyes and gasped.
I was on a island. It looked uninhabited. I looked around. The monkeys were nowhere to be seen. But I saw another island a couple of miles away. But there was the ocean I had to worry about.
I got up shakily and walked further up the beach. I realized I still had my survival pack and I opened it. Inside was a tent, some dry food, and a hatchet. I looked at my surroundings. I saw a bunch of dead trees among the living. I took out the hatchet and prepared to chop the wood.
I spent hours chopping wood. Then I made the fire pit and put my hand into my pocket. I found the lighter Sprx had given me for my birthday last month.. I grabbed a piece of a twig and started the fire. It was blazing within moments and I felt like laughing out loud, even though there was nothing to laugh about.
The word shelter popped into my mind. There was probably going to be storms on the island and I knew that getting sick would be a death sentence. So I took out the tent and began to put it together.
By the time that was done it was dark. The world was calling it a day. I grabbed some raisins out of the survival pack and ate them quickly. I dug a hole and put the pack inside. I didn't want to risk my pack to wild animals.
After that I crawled into the tent. I would start construction on a boat or a raft. Antauri and the others might be on the other island. I might even explore a little bit in the morning.
I chuckled a little and grabbed the little blanket that had been rolled up inside the tent. Within moments I was asleep.
