Chapter 1: The End
It all started when my brother jinxed our happy journey to Greece.
After an hour on the plane...
It had started raining heavily when a voice spoke
"Alert. Alert. Due to bad weather the plane is going to make an emergency landing. Please fasten your seat belts."
The plane shook as my mother screamed.
My heartbeat increased and I started shaking with fear.
I braced myself just as the plane started to lose altitude. The loud rumbling of thunder could be heard outside over the screams of other passengers.
I glared at my brother.
*****flashback********
"This is going to be a wonderful vacation" My brother said as he sat down.
Mom smiled at him as she sat down as well.
"I feel like nothing can go wrong on this vacation. I'm gonna have a blast!"he said cheerfully.
*****flashback end*****
Oh we were going to have a blast all right.
Blasting off into the ground, that is.
At least my brother had the decency to blush.
Suddenly the plane jerked, I screamed and everything went to hell.
The plane began to sway about with even more force than before.
I let out another scream when I opened an eye only to see an ocean through the window.
Distantly I could hear some voices which I was unable to decipher.
CRACK
The rain shattered the window beside me as I ducked to avoid the shards of glass.
In a situation like this I would have surely cried except that I was too terrified to shed tears.
SPLASH
The plane hit the water and moments later water flooded the plane.
The plane started breaking up as I swam to the nearest exit.
I desperately swam to the surface.
A hand caught hold of me. I turned only to see the familiar face of my brother. He sent my way a terrified smile.
I gasped for air as I realised he was hanging on to a small piece of wood that would surely drown if I held on to it as well.
Just as I thought that, it started sinking. My brothers eyes widened as I let go of his hand.
He shouted out my name.
Maybe it was the lack of oxygen in my lungs-due to which I felt lightheaded -that fogged my thoughts and caused me to let go or maybe I was just too tired to hold on.
As water enclosed me my eyes started drooping and I started drifting off into darkness...
