Chapter 2: How Are You? Bad.
"Ahh!"
"I'm too young to die!"
"Shut up!"
"cough-cough. Meiling let cough-cough go of me!"
"Please remain calm we have just hit some turbulence above international waters due to a heavy thunderstorm. Please buckle in, adjust your seat upright, and wake anyone around you."
Sakura took her earphones off and shook Tomoyo gently. "Tomoyo. Tomoyo. TOMOYO! WAKE UP!"
Tomoyo jumped and looked at Sakura out of one eye before panicking. "What's going on?"
"Don't worry just buckle in and wake Eriol up." Sakura said putting her bag under her seat. 'Okay, nothing to worry about right? Just some turbulence, a couple more hours and we'll be in-'
The plane lurched forward and Sakura hit her head against the seat in front of her, as did everyone else by what she assumed.
More screams.
Sakura came back up and looked forward, a bit fuzzy. She distinctly saw and heard Meiling trying to wake Syaoran up who had apparently been knocked out cold. Her vision blurred even more and she felt Tomoyo grab her as the both leaned left and onto Eriol.
"Sakura are you…" Was the last thing Sakura heard. Something at the back of the plane snapped and suddenly the wind began flowing through the plane furiously.
Next thing she knew, Sakura was being handed a square yellow floater and the oxygen mask hit the top of her head. The screams were gone and she could see Tomoyo's mouth moving but no sound was coming out. The plane evened out a bit from its dive but was still falling quickly.
'Oh my god even if I survive I think I'm deaf. Daddy I'm sorry I was a brat. Mommy I'm sorry I ever bugged you soo much. Touya I'm sorry I-'
Sakura thoughts were interrupted when she felt a hard bump launching her forward into the side. The she heard a loud crunch and cried out loudly. The plane soon began to fill up with water.
Sakura unbuckled herself, as did Tomoyo and Eriol, following her lead. Oh yeah, now she knew what that crunch was, her arm. Feeling a heavy weight on her back she realized she was still wearing her backpack. Oh well, no time for that now.
Apparently everyone thought the same thing as they swam to the top. Sakura opened her eyes for a while and saw some helping others who couldn't' swim hold onto the floaters, some struggling to swim, and a large group surrounding what was no doubt the devil himself, a knocked out Syaoran Li.
Looking upward, a small light formed. 'I'm dead. Wait, no that's a fire.'
Swimming towards it faster she soon reached for the top gasping for breath. Taking in deep breaths, she never realized how precious air could be until now. Many other heads started popping up and looking towards the fire.
If Sakura weren't floating for her life and that plane crashing had not almost cost everyone all of their lives, she would have actually thought that it looked amazing. The blazes were floating on the water surprisingly and the pieces of thin metal were floating on top.
Suddenly, a sharp cry was heard and everyone gasped. IN the middle of the fires was one of the girls from Sakura's class. Not thinking, Sakura swam as hard as she could towards the girl, with the yellow floater in the arm that didn't hurt.
The presence of the fire started burning her by itself, and the freezing cold that she felt a couple seconds ago had vanished completely.
When Sakura got to the spot where the girl had been she saw no one but felt a tug on her leg. Pulling in a huge breath she went underneath and shielding her eyes from the light above her saw the girl about to pass out and what had kept her from moving.
The girl's, Cassie according to the name on the uniform, leg had gotten stuck between a piece of metal and a seat where Sakura saw, blood was pouring out from and couldn't help but thinking, 'I wonder if there are sharks anywhere around here?'
Pushing the seat aside from behind Cassie, the leg broke loose but the boot was too chunky to get out so Sakura unzipped the hot zipper and pulled Cassie to the top.
"Here." Sakura breathed out giving Cassie her floater and pushing her towards the others. Sakura soon started to follow but the fires behind her turned from small different ones to one huge blaze and Sakura felt the heat get to her. 'How ironic,' she thought, 'That I'm going burn in water that's probably below freezing.' The light blinded her and in the split second that she blinked, her eyes wouldn't open again.
Sakura's POV
"Sakura." I heard a voice singing. Ow, my eyes hurt what the hell is that light?
"Sakura waaake uuup." Is that my mom? Was that a dream? Ow, ow, ow, OW! NO!! If I can feel my arm hurting that badly it wasn't a dream. Then I'm not in heaven either. Then WHERE THE HELL AM I? Oh, no. Am I in hell? NO, the light is too white.
"Sakura, please wake up." That voice. It sounds like my mom's perfect singing but it's too soft, too quiet to be my mother, too young. Wait a minute.
"Eriol, you said my singing would work." It said normally no longer singing. Yup, it's Tomoyo. Wait. Tomoyo, where are we and WHAT IS THAT LIGHT?
Groaning I tried to move but my arm throbbed and I cried out loudly. Tomoyo gasped and I heard footsteps running towards us. Muffled footsteps. "What am I on?" I thought out loud.
Tomoyo cried out to Eriol, "She's awake." And then I heard her hug and kiss him. Oh great, I wake up and he gets all the praise.
"Tomoyo, what am I laying on? Where are we? Is Cassie okay? And WHAT THE HELL IS THAT LIGHT IN MY EYES?" I rambled.
Tomoyo giggled, "Sakura you are too kawaii. Open your eyes and find out."
I tried, rally I did but…"I can't open them Tomoyo."
"Aaahh!" That wasn't Tomoyo, I'd recognize that scream anywhere, and it was Meiling. "He's dead! Syao's dead!"
I snapped my eyes open. No way. I couldn't have gotten that lucky. That's what that light was, the freaking sun. I looked around and everything seemed fuzzy for a while before it cleared up.
Sitting up I winced. Yup, that arm is broken. 'Poor arm though I've broken it at least four times since I started doing cheerleading four years ago I wonder if that somehow-'
"SYAO!"
"SHUT UP!" I yelled. That screaming is giving me a migraine.
Looking around, my breath hitched in my throat. Everything was so…magical. We were in an alcove on a hill overlooking the ocean, with the surrounding trees making a sort roof top above us. The sun made everything give off a yellow glow. 'Seriously, am I not in heaven?'
"AAAHH! SYAO!" Nope. I'm not if she's here. Looking over to the bad attempt for a ten, I saw Meiling crying over what seemed to be Li, I guess with everyone surrounding them. 'Wow, so he's dead huh? Shouldn't I be happy-Wait a minute, how can he be dead? He's so red. I shouldn't do this.'
Normal POV
"Meiling get off him!" Sakura said yelling and running over nearly tripping on the sand.
When she got there Meiling glared at her and spat. "What do you want Kinomoto?"
"Get off him."
Meiling's eyes widened. "Excuse me?"
"Get off him, you're crushing his only way to breathe." Sakura repeated pushing her off. The red drained form Syaoran's face and his breathing almost went back to normal, still a bit ragged. "See?"
"How did YOU know that?" Jeanne sneered.
Sakura's eyes watered and her head hung down, not wanting Jeanne or anyone else to see her cry. Eriol stepped in and answered for her, "She took a lot of medicine classes in her old school, she wants to be as doctor after all."
"ERIOL!" Joanna yelled and pounced on him. "Soo…what do you want to be?"
"Dead." He muttered rolling his eyes.
Suddenly Syaoran's breathing became small and hitched. Sakura looked at him just before Meiling pushed her out of the way. "Go away freak we don't need your help."
"Okay." Sakura shrugged heading back over to her tent with Tomoyo and Eriol.
A couple minutes later Meiling yelled. "Hey freak!"
Sakura ignored her and continued talking to Tomoyo and Eriol. She smiled when she heard Meiling's exasperated sigh. "Kinomoto can you PLEASE help Syao?"
"Come on, Sakura." Tomoyo said trying to convince her friend. "It's Meiling and she actually said please with out puking."
Sakura sighed and nodded her head. "I guess."
Going over to Syaoran she saw Meiling throw her a nasty look. "Freak…"
"What was that Meiling?" Sakura asked sweetly.
"Nothing."
Feeling Syaoran's forehead, Sakura sighed. Then she put her ear on his chest to listen to his breathing. "Hey fr-kinomoto what are you doing?" Jeanne screeched.
Sakura ignored her and sat up before calling over to Tomoyo. "Is my backpack here?"
Tomoyo rushed to their tent and back with a heavy backpack. "Yeah, but most of your things got wet."
"No duh Sherlock it was floating in water for a couple hours." Joanne sneered. Tomoyo smiled sweetly at her in return then Eriol went over to her side making Joanna's eyes widen before she ran off.
Sakura shook her head and started dragging Syaoran into the oversized ten he was supposed to be in. Meiling started to follow then thought out loud, "Ew what if he's contagious or something. If anyone should die it should be Kinomoto." Then ran off with Jeanne and everyone else down to the shore.
Soon after Eriol and Tomoyo left as well leaving Syaoran and Sakura in the alcove by themselves.
Sakura stared at the sleeping figure and sighed. "I guess I'm stuck with you in this tent until you wake up…" Then she chuckled a bit. "..brat."
"Is he awake yet?" Her teacher, Ms. Delwin, asked.
"No, not yet." Sakura said looking up at her.
"My goodness Sakura what happened?" She asked noticing the purple blob Sakura had instead of her normal arm.
Sakura held it up to the small stream of light passing through and sighed. "I don't know Ms. Delwin but it hurts a lot, actually I was going to take care of it now."
"Call me Mary, all the other students are already." Mary said getting the antiseptic Sakura had next to Syaoran. She applied it to the cuts around the broken arm as Sakura winced.
"What exactly is going on, Ms. Del- I mean- Mary?" Sakura asked closing her eyes from the pain as Mary bandaged her arm.
"I'm still trying to process that Sakura. What I do know is that Cassie rally looks up to you, as do the other kids here." Mary said gently.
"Well who else is here? Where exactly is here?" Sakura asked, curiously.
Mary gave a desperate sigh, "All fourteen kids that were on that plane are here, I am here, we are missing are the luggage and the pilot. Well, most of the luggage washed on shore, as for the pilot…"
Sakura looked up as her arm was getting finished up on. She wasn't dumb enough as to not figure out what is going on.
Mary saw her expression and assured, "What is good is that we are alive, we have shelter and the amount of food in one of your luggage bag will keep us alive for some time."
Sakura smiled lazily and rubbed the back of her head with her broken hand. "What can I say, I get hungry."
Mary smiled warmly, "Well I envy you. How you can eat so much and stay so skinny is beyond me."
Sakura smiled back and turned back to Syaoran. Thinking Mary was gone she whispered, "What is wrong with you, Li?"
"Sakura?" Mary called, smiling.
Sakura jumped and then turned to look at her shyly, "Yes?"
"Thank you for taking care of him." She said sincerely before exiting to check on the students.
"Yeah," Sakura muttered to herself before looking at Syaoran again. "Thanks."
