A/N I like how Author's Notes is the opposite of Not Applicable (N/A). Basically just to let you know I'm sort of abandoning that story Crash I was writing it and making all new and dandy… in other words this. I'll keep the other one up… unless fanfiction dot net tells me to take it down. But yeah, I like this one better, plus it's more fun so far since I've gotten out of bugging my friends to read what I write. So here is Crash reincarnated as Stranded. So sorry if this chapter is really short, I hope that I'll be able to get another one up tomorrow night. Until then, I hope you enjoy what's here and leave your opinion using the submit review option at the bottom of the page. Toodles.
I was the first to walk down the alleyway. It was nearly midnight, but everything was cast in a flickering, orange light, flinging moving, quivering shadows everywhere. The road my backside faced had been torn up and crushed, and I'd seen remnants of a car strewn nearly the entire path of the destruction. Ahead of me was a car tire, half engulfed in flame, but what we were looking for, the cause of all this, was directly in front of us.
But what was it? It sat silhouetted in its own inferno, ragged and in several beaten pieces. Then I noticed a window embedded in the largest section. I would have ignored the shattered window and come back later for inspection of the cinders left, however something was propped up inside catching my eye. I stopped and stood at a safe distance from the raging flame and squinted trying to figure out what it was inside. The two policemen I had for guards stopped on both sides of me and asked what I was looking at. And to be honest, at first I wasn't sure, but it seemed to be in the relative shape of a person.
My eyes widened all of a sudden, this piece of wreckage that I was staring at was jutting out of the blaze, and it might be possible to get him out. I yelled at the men that there was someone in there as I began to run towards the flaming wreckage.
The three of us got what I assumed to be the unconscious pilot out, but were surprised that this was not a person, but a human, my evolutionary sibling.
