Prologue
"Sir the second engine just cut out!"
"Damn it! Alright... There's no way we can save her! Everyone abandon ship!" said the dark haired man.
"But sir, we are over the ocean and you-"
"I know! I'll be fine, just go!"
The dark haired man was still sitting at the flight controls of this airship. Land was no where in sight for the moment but he thought if he could just hold the ship up a bit longer then land may show up.
Everyone had left the ship by now and he would be the last person off. He was alone sitting at the controls of the airship he had poured his heart and soul into. She was lost now. What was worse was the fact that he couldn't swim.
The ocean grew steadily closer to the front of the airship and land was no where to be seen.
The deep blue of the ocean was now skimming the bottom of the airship. He had no choice now. He wouldn't be able to reach land. He had to take the chance. He quickly slammed his fist down on a large red button and the cockpit of the airship burst open and the chair he was sitting in shot out of the airship.
He removed the seat fastener and the chair fell to the water. With a quick yank of the rip cord, his parachute opened. Slowly he floated to the water.
Panic set in when he finally hit the ocean. He began struggling to get the parachute off himself. He was able to get it most of the way off but he needed air. He began trying to make his way to the surface of the water. He wasn't going to make it. His chest felt heavy. He gave in. Water began to come in. He fought hard to get to the surface.
Slowly a darkness began to consume him until he lost consciousness completely.
