Shipwrecked

Chapter 1 "The Storm"

"But Captian, we can't sail today." said a sailor.

"Nonsense." The captain replied.

"But Captain, what about the sayin'; Red sky at night, sailors delight. Red sky at morning, sailors take warning." the sailor replied.

"That's just superstition, and I'll hear no more of this nonsense! We are going to sail this cruise ship, and that's the last I will here of this."

Ring...Ring... The phone filled the house with its alarming music. Ring...Ring...The phone rang again. Ring...Ring....

"Would somebody get the damn phone," Joey's father shouted angrily.

"I'll get it," Joey said, jumping up. "Hello?"

"Is Joey Wheeler there?" a girl's high pitched voice asked from the other end.

"Well, Mr. Wheeler, this is your lucky day. You've just won a trip to Hawaii and 2,000 dollars."

"Really? But how?" Joey asked, trying surpress his happiness.

"An essay you wrote. You may take five friends with you. Your ship leaves at 3:30 today. Sorry that we called you at such short notice, but the $2,000 you won, will be given to you at the ship. Please be at the docks at 3:00 to pick up the tickets and your money. Goodbye, and please enjoy your prize."

The line clicked, yet Joey didn't place the phone down. His hand started to tremble and he would've celebrated, but his father was home...He quickly set the phone down. Then after some thought, grabbed the reciever again and dialed Yugi's phone number. Shortly after, he called Tea, Tristen, Bukura, and Mai.

A car stopped at the docks, and then quickly drove off, the old man waving goodbye. Six teenagers stood at the dock. They slowly made their way to the glorious ship ahead of them.

The sky outside grew dark as the sun slowly set on the horizon. Many passengers scurried to their rooms, including the six teens. The group laughed happily, unknowing that the dark clouds headed their way.

A loud siren blared and a bright red light flashed through the hallways. The passengers woke from the commotion. Everyone woke. Except Joey.

Soon the captain's voice came over the speaker, interrupting the siren. He said, "Everyone please stay calm. Bring only a few warm clothes. Life vests are kept in the closet in your room. Please also bring that."

Yugi, seeing Joey's door still closed, opened it quickly, finding Joey still asleep. He quickly ran to the bed, doing everything he could think of to wake the teen. Yugi thought quickly, and suddenly yelled, "BREAKFEST!" Joey's head automatically swung at this, and he was up. Yugi quickly silenced Joey, and told him what was happening, grabbing the life vest and a few of his clothes.

Soon everyone was on deck. The captain appeared, ushering everyone into the large lifeboats. "This is not a drill!" He yelled.

There were three lifeboats. Two had filled quickly, and the only people left were Yugi, Tea, Joey, Bukura, Tristen, Mai, and two sailors. The sailors quickly helped Yugi and the others into the boats. About the time the teens were in the boats, the furocious waves crashed into the ship numerous times. The pulling and pounding on the ropes holding the lifeboat made them snap. The lifeboat fell and landed in the water, before the last sailors could save themselves. The ship slowly started to capsize and the sailors, fearing their lives, jumped overboard. The captain paddled his boat over and carefully dragged the men into the boat.

The waves became bigger as the storm raged. Large waves carried the boat Yugi, Tea, Joey, Tristen, Bukura, and Mai were in farther from the group. The captain looked on in horror as the screaming teens were carried off by the mercilous sea.

The thunder roared, the lightning cracked, and the wind howled as the teens feared for their lives. They watched as the two lifeboats became specks in the distance, and then finally disappeared all together. But as the group watched the life boats disappear, they didn't notice the rocks threatening their lives once again.
