This is my very first fic! I know the show was over long time ago, but I just love Flight 29 Down and Jackson/Melissa, so I try to write a fanfic for them.

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot.

Author's Note: Jackson, Melissa, Eric, Abby, Jory and Ian come back at the right time Captain Russell prepared to fire their camp. Captain Russell left after threatening to take revenge. No rescue plane, they were stuck on the island and Captain Russell was somewhere out there, near their camp. They must be very careful!

Chapter 1

It was evening. People sat around the fire. At that time, except the insane Captain, everyone was present here. The joy of reunion didn't last long because they had to confront another danger.

"Ok guys!" Jackson began. "Now we are all here."

"Almost…" Eric smacked his tongue.

"Come on Eric, let me finish my words," Jackson cleared his throat. "I'm very sorry but we must admit that Captain Russell lose his mind. Now he's somewhere out there, stalking, tracking and maybe he'll harm anyone of us.

"Why are we in a state of anxious like this?" Daley bits her lower lip. "I don't get it! After your return, everything becomes terrible! Obviously, we used to live here very well," she said.

"At least they found Jory and Ian," Nathan turned to Daley and tapped her on the shoulder.

"I know how you're worry but we have to face reality. The rescue team hasn't come yet so we still stuck here and has to continue to survive," Jackson continued. "Now the important thing is safety! Captain Russell is out there so we have to be careful. Don't go too far from our camp and don't go alone."

"But Jackson, if we don't go far, how can we find food?" Daley asked again. "Only safety isn't enough for us to survive. We need water, we need food and those things aren't nearby! You know that!"

"Maybe we should divide into some groups. I think it's safer if we work together," Melissa showed her opinion.

"It seems feasible. Make it clearly, Mel." Jackson said as he signaled to Melissa to continue.

"Well... We have 10 people here, so I think we should divide into 3 groups, 2 groups 3 members, 1 group 4 members and then we'll assign the task for each group. Of course, working in group helps us not to work alone."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"I think Melissa's way sounds good… But guys, do you think that we should elect a leader or not?" Nathan wondered. "I mean… Anyway if we work with organization, it would be better."

"Oh no! Don't tell me that we will vote again!" Eric said with a frown. "I'm sick of it!"

"Eric, this is for our sake! You have to accept it," Daley glanced at Eric.

"Damn it! But we have 10 people, if the result is 5-5, then how to decide?" Eric yelled.

"Why not simply choose a leader and let him or her decide everything?" Abby asked.

"It's not OK. The leader isn't always true, Abby," Daley shook her head and turned to her brother. "What do you think, Lex?"

"Well... Maybe we'll discuss the decision of using vote as an organization or not later," the wise litter boy replied. "Firstly, I think Nathan's right. We need a leader to assign tasks for everybody and make sure everything is doing well."

Taylor looked at people around her. "Then who will be the leader?" she asked.

People suddenly gazed at Jackson. He sighed and stood up. "Ok guys! I know what you're thinking. If all of you don't have any opinion, I'll take responsibility for this." Jackson paused, waiting to see the reaction of people. No one object. Jackson stepped in the middle of the circle. "Well... So from now on, I'm a leader here. Tonight, I'll divide groups and assign tasks for groups. Tomorrow I'll give you guys know and we begin working. Okay?"

"Why don't we make it more interesting?" Jory suggested. "Instead of choosing members of each group, why don't we draw lots? Thus, it would be more fair, Jackson."

"Draw lots?" Jackson stroked his chin. "I don't think that's a good idea."

"I think draw lots sounds good," Daley said. "Because if you divide groups by yourself, maybe some people won't like their group and complain to you about it. The best way is draw lots. No one can blame random."

When Daley agreed with Jory's suggestion, everyone also seemed to approve it. Jackson made a concession, "Alright! Then draw lots!"

After the draw, the group of 10 is divided into 3 groups. Group 1: Taylor, Jory and Ian. Group 2: Nathan, Daley and Eric. Group 3: Jackson, Melissa, Lex and Abby.

The next day, Jackson assigned tasks for each group. Group 1: boiling water, filling bottles, keeping the flame and charging battery. Group 2: fetching water and collecting firewood. Group 3: finding food.

"Ok guys! Let's start working! We need to store food and water. And the important thing is that we have to be careful." Jackson emphasized. "So do not go alone! Remember - safety first! Okay?"

"Okay!"

Everybody replied in chorus and started working. Perhaps they would be busy in coming days.

OK, it's short but I'll try to update as soon as possible.
