Chapter

One cold April night in 1912 the largest moving object ever made by man sank only four days into her maiden voyage taking almost half of her passengers and crew to the bottom of the north Atlantic.
On board the ship were the most famous and rich people in the world and some of the poorest people in the world. All seemed to go well on the first voyage but all of that was about to change. Around 11pm the ship struck a huge iceberg opening up the forward six compartments more than the ship could withstand. The designer of the ship Thomas Andrews informed the captain E.J Smith after inspecting the damage that the ship could not stay afloat than a little more than two hours. Some of the passengers that were awake at the time of the collusion and felt a bump and then they felt the engines of the ship stop. So some of the wealthy passengers asked their Stuarts to see what had happened and why the ship stopped in the middle of the Atlantic.
While the rich passengers didn't think that there was much to worry about at the bottom of the ship in steerage people were packing their belongings and making their way to upper decks only to be stopped in their tracks by the locked iron gate witch the crew closed to wait for the first class passengers to board the boats and lower them.
