Jack and Rose glanced behind them as Jack led her down some stairs leading to a flooded corridor. Singling for her to be quiet they leaned against the wall looking up the stairs to make sure that Caroline was no longer following them. Rose's heart dropped when she heard the sounds of a child crying for his father Looking around the corner of the corridor, they saw a little boy standing in front of a door with water spilling out, crying for his papa.

"We can't leave him," Rose clutched Jack's arms.

Looking back up the stairs from where they had come and seeing water spilling down, Jack nodded in agreement. He wouldn't be able to live with himself if they just left the little boy. With Rose following him, he ran to the boy and scooped him up into his arms. Seeing that the door was about to give way under the weight of the water on the other side, Jack turned and ran back for the stairs. His eyes widening with horror, he stopped when he saw that more water was coming down the stairs, making it impossible to go back up.

"Go back!" He yelled at Rose as they headed in the direction of the groaning door. Suddenly a middle-aged man, who must be the boy's father, appeared out of a room carrying a suitcase. Seeing Jack with his son, the man cursed in some sort of language and grabbed the boy away from Jack.

To both Jack and Rose's horror, the man rans straight for the groaning door that was now bulging from all the weight. It was going to give way!

"Wait! Come back! You're going the wrong way!" Jack and Rose both cried outfor the man, but the man either didn't listen or he didn't understand. Rose screamed in horror as the door finally gave way and the roaring ocean swallowed up both the boy and his father. She didn't have time for much else because Jack pushed her into another corridor and they were both running from the angry wall of water.

"Run!" Jack ordered.

They ran their fastest, but it wasn't fast enough, because both lost their balance as the wall of ocean slammed into them. About five seconds later, Rose and Jack were both slammed up against a closed gate.

"Jack!" Rose cried out, terrified.

"Follow me!" Jack ordered, having spotted a stairway on their way to the gate. Grabbing on to the pipes up on the ceiling, Jack led Rose to the stairway. "Give me your hand," He grabbed onto the banister. He let Rose up first then he joined her, but to both of their dismay they found the gate on top of the stairwell locked.

"How are we going to get out?" Rose cried.

"I don't know," Jack looked at her. Terror struck their hearts as they look behind to see the water quickly rising.

Jack began jerking at the gates. "Help! Help!"

"Help!" Rose joined him.

They looked down again to see the water was now up to their feet.

"Help us!" Jack called, spotting a steward about to head up the stairs. "Sir! Sir! Help us!" Jack reached a hand out through the gate.

"Please!" Rose cried along with him. She didn't want to die. Not anymore. Not now that she had found Jack!

The steward just looked at them, then began to head up the stairs, but then stopped, realizing that he couldn't just leave two people down there to drown.

"Oh bloody hell," the steward headed back down, keys in hand.

"Hurry!" Rose cried, as the steward began trying every key he had in the lock.

"Come on!" Jack urged as water was now up to their waists. The ship was sinking fast.

The steward grew even more frantic as sparks flew from the ceiling. He had the key in his hand, but his hands had grown so slippery from his sweat that he dropped them. Sorrow and regret in his eyes, he looked at the young couple that were going to die down here tonight. He was truly sorry that he wasn't able to save them. "I'm sorry! I dropped the keys!" He said, before darting up the stairs.

"No wait!" Rose cried, "Send for help! Wait!"

Thinking fast, Jack sucked in a big gulp of air and went under, searching for the keys himself. At first he couldn't find them, but soon enough he had them in his hand. When he reemerged, the water was up to their shoulders and raising fast.

"Which one is it Rose!" Jack held the keys up.

"The pointy one!"

Finding the correct key, Jack got it in the keyhole, but the key refused to turn.

"Hurry Jack!" Rose screamed as the water reached their neck.

"It's stuck!" Jack twisted the key again.

"Hurry Jack!" Rose cried as the water got even higher. "Jack!"

Jack gave it one more hard turn and relief flooded his eyes as it turned and the gate opened. "I got it Rose! Go!" He pushed her out into the hallway.

Ducking under a pipe and reemerging Rose looked back to find that she was alone in the hallway. Where was Jack? "Jack!"

"Rose!" Jack grabbed on to the pipe from the other side.

"Jack come on!" Rose reached out her hand.

Ducking under the pipe, Jack reemerged to rejoin Rose. "Move Rose!" Jack pushed her to the stairs. They then make their way up to the deck.

Five minutes later, they were running through the first class smoking lounge when Rose spotted Mr. Andrews, who was staring at the clock on the mantle, pure heartbreak on his face. What? Why was he still here instead of on a lifeboat?

"Wait!" Rose called to Jack as he pulled her along. Jack stopped and stood aside as Rose went to the older man, knowing how much he had loved this ship and how it must be destroying him to watch all his hard work sink to the bottom of the ocean. "Mr. Andrews…aren't you going to make a try for it?"

Mr. Andrews looked at her, all the grief in the world contained in his eyes. His voice was soft and full of grief. "I'm sorry I didn't build you a stronger ship young Rose."

Rose immediately knew that he was planning to go down with his creation. She wanted to try to talk him into coming with them, but by the look in Jack's eyes, there wasn't time. The ship was going quickly.

She hugged him tightly. "It's been a pleasure to have met you Mr. Andrews."

"Same here young Rose. Best of luck to you," Mr. Andrews picked up his life vest and handed it to her. "Here take this."

"Thank you."

"Rose we have to go. She's going fast," Jack held his hand out for her.

She took one more look at Mr. Andrews, then took Jack's hand and allowed him to pull her out of the room.

…..

Caroline looked up at the sinking ship as her lifeboat sailed further away. She felt a twinge of sadness at such a loss of a beautiful vessel, and a little sad at the loss of her fiancée Jack. But this was what he wanted. He had chosen death with Rose other than life with her so it was his own fault. She turned away from the sight of the sinking ship.

…..

Molly's heart was in her throat as she watched the sinking ship. Her Rose was on that ship right now. Hopefully she was with Jack…that way they would die together if need be. But then again, maybe Jack had gotten Rose in a boat in time and Rose was now alone and frightened…whichever the case, Molly wished she was with her niece now instead of in this lifeboat.
