A/N: Okay, this is a Lost parody co written by my pal, Jessy. We got bored, and paragraphed back and forth.. and it spriraled out of control. The celebrties here are a combination of all the characters they have played, or the persona's they've created, rather than themselves. I.E. Dom is both Charlie from Lost and Merry from LotR. If you don't know someone, no worries, because you can still read it.. It's pretty damned funny. The others?...
Who else.. Fangirls .
Please note that this is for entertainment purposes only and does not take place in our normal earth logic universe.. These people are more like strange duplicates than the actually celebrities. Also, the prolouge has a lot going on, it might be a bit hard to follow, so you can check back when chapter one comes out to see if you like it any better then, k?

Side Tracked
Prologue
Bowie woke to the
sound of a heady yell, "JESUS CHRIST, MAN! What's going on!"
The person seated next to him was clutching his hat and typewriter,
cigarette hanging out of his mouth. The boat twisted from the lower
deck.
"I dunno, but I
smell something burning, we better move outside." Bowie grabbed
a small suitcase of his and sped up the stairs, the the man with the
typewriter and orange glasses stumbling behind.
Indiana stood up
abruptly from the table before him at the sound of a rather loud
crash. Money from the card game he was in on flew throughout the
room.
"Did anybody
besides me hear that?" The two people across from him nodded
almost simultaneously. He left through the dining room and went to
the deck.
Jennifer stumbled and
nearly fell, as did Kate. They had been on their way to their cabins
when the boat had tipped precariously. The creaking and groaning was
disconcerting.
"This can't be
good, we should see what all of this is about.. " mumbled
Jennifer. Kate nodded with steel resolve and they made their way to
the recreation rooms.
Billy looked over at
Dom.
" Should we
follow him?"...
"You go on, I'll
catch up." Dom bent over to the ground and started to collect
the money that had been left behind.
Naomi ran into Kate
and Jennifer. She too had been heading for the closest way to the
top.
"What's going
on?"
"I have no idea,
" said Jennifer, " But it can't be good..."
Steven poked his head
out of the bay room, finding several people gathered on the stairs
there.
"Who did it? It
wasn't me!" He looked back and forth before fully entering the
hallway. "What did I miss?"
Just then Bowie came
through a door across the hallway, a sun-glassed man behind him
brandishing a typewriter as his eyes darted.
"Has anyone seen
the captain?" Bowie asked.
Brendon was at the top
of the stairs, beating at the door that had locked all the passengers
in.
"Where's the key
to this thing?"
Indy was directly
behind him.
"What do you need
a key for? Kick it open.."
"Oh yeah,"
Brendon got them to back up some then gave the door a good kick,
sending it off the weak hinges and over the railing out on the deck.
Rose brushed past the
man with the typewriter.
"Not again.."
Hunter grabbed the
nearest neck in his free arm, which happened to be Indy's. He leaned
into his ear and mumbled loudly.
"This is truly
the end, friend. The sharks will get us soon.. I accept
responsibility for it all, man. Jesus.. I mean, I came on here to
write about this voyage.. should've known, well.. Nixon would be
pleased.. He got me in the end, you know, " he clutched that
obscenely red typewriter close to him.
Evan ran past everyone
on the stairs and to the deck. Three of the crew followed shortly
behind her, yelling ahead at her. She hadn't meant to jam the
rudders, well yes she had, but still.Indy gently removed the man's
hand,
"Sharks will
learn to fear me if it comes to battling them for the sea." He
pushed Brendon out onto the deck, "Good job with the door."
"Don't mention
it.." Brendon roamed the decks now, looking for anything to do
to keep the ship from wrecking.
Bowie set out in a
search for the captain as Steven waltzed around behind Indy.
"This is wild...
But I don't like it too much. " He said decidedly.
Bowie found the wheel
and the captain slumped over it.. He checked for a pulse---- none.
Okay. Now, this, was quite reason enough to panic.
Kate found herself
following Brendon and Jennifer met up with Billy and Dom when she
returned below deck.
Hunter had half
climbed some of the rigging and was screaming at the top of his
lungs.
"Life BOATS. Life BOOOAAATS! AND Life JACKKETS! And SHARK repellent! "
Dom stuffed the money
into his pocket just as Jennifer had come in.
"What's going on
up there?"
"We have no
idea.. Have you seen any crew members around?"
Rose came up to Bowie.
"The captain?"
She already knew what the answer would be, but wanted to hear it from
someone else.
Evan was chased past the wheel where the captain had been, smiling the whole time. 'Murderer' was a good title for her, but she had only done it because she was half drunk at the time.
He nodded. "You don't think.. anyone knows how to drive a ship, do you?...We need spotlights. .I think these waves are coming back as revibrations.. There must be land near... " Bowie said hopefully.
"I saw some run
through here chasing someone, but that's it." Dom wanted to go
up and see what was going on. Jenn went back up
toward the deck, and Billy began to make his way that way as well.
Naomi went with Kate,
following Brendon. She stopped all of a sudden and looked out ahead
of them.
"Do you see
that?" She pointed at an island ahead of them.
Indy walked up
where Bowie and Rose were.
"Need a driver?"
Brendon tripped over a dome shaped object on its side, and accidently caused it to go bright. Turns out it was a spotlight, now it pointed directly at the island.
Hunter pointed toward
the island.
"Land ho! A
chance for redempt--" the ship flew to the right and nearly
through the crazed man off balance. Steven approached the rigging
under him.
"You can't stay
up there! Lightning!"
Hunter suddenly remembered something vastly
important to him.
"DAHH! THE
SUITCASE, MAN, IT MUST BE SAVED!" He leapt down and deposited
the typewriter into the large mouthed mans arm.
Bowie looked at Indy.
"If you can get
it to the island. I'm going to look for emergency supplies, they
should be in the life boats" he looked at Rose. "Please
come with me, I need the help. "
Rose followed him as
soon as Indy had taken control of the wheel. The lifeboats were half
gone, the crew must've taken some and abandoned ship.
Evan was knocked over
by the crashing waves and overtaken by the three crew members. Soon,
she found her hands cuffed behind her back, completely useless. But
the sailors got the worst of it all, they were knocked overboard and
met up with the propellers.
Indy went at the
island at an angle, knowing it was the easiest way to get there.
"Thanks, kid!"
He yelled over at Brendon for providing him with a light.
"Take as much as
you can carry of the first aid kits," Bowie suggested. Steven
passed by.
"So it's bad
then?.. I'll go get water from the kitchen." Billy was in
earshot
"Hey Dom, maybe
we should get some food... "
Hunter leapt into his
cabin and found his suitcase and hugged it close before bounding and
staggering back up the stairs yelling 'walk this way'.
Brendon got up and
fell back down because of the waves. He chose to stay this time until
the ship made it to the island.
Naomi overheard Bowie
and went to help ready one of the lifeboats.
Evan silently slipped
aboard the first of two lifeboats, not able to do anything else for
the time being.
Dom felt his feet
starting to burn. The engines had started to over heat.
"Get back!"
he shoved Billy away from the heat and jumped beside him just as
flames shot up out of the floor. The ship now had a massive hole in
it and was taking on water.
Rose loaded up the first boat to its capacity but made it to were there was still room for six people, Evan having taken up one of the numbers.
"Eeeeee!"
Hunter yelled as his legs were drenched in a wave of water.
"Impossible to walk in this!" He saw a lifeboat and threw
the suitcase in it.
Bowie screamed loudly,
"Everyone get on board! We have to go now!"
Hunter started to get
on one, but then remembered the fedora-ed man controlling the boat.
"Leave none
behind!" He said as he set off for the wheel and told Indy that
the boats were departing.
Steven made it back to
the boat with his arms full of water bottles and another first aid
kits, he boarded the second lifeboat and helped Rose onto it as well,
as Billy, Kate and Jennifer got on the first one.
Dom hopped on the
second, then helped Naomi on after him.
"Then you better
get back to them," Indy said to Hunter, leaving the wheel. He
went up to Brendon and took his hat off.
"Here kid, but I
better get it back." With that, he dove over the side of the
ship and swam for the island that was not far off now.
"Kid? What are you, seven years older than me, I'm no kid.." he took the hat and took the last seat available on the first boat.
Hunter had always
wanted to captain a ship, that one time in Mexico hardly counted, he
decided..
"Hell, I've lived
5 years more than I've needed. " He pulled a cattle prod from
his pants leg and waved it at Brendon, "Get on the boat! Go on
now!" After he left, he took to the wheel for a bit spinning it
this way and that, before finally deciding it wasn't all that great
and heading to the life boat just before it departed.
Evan looked around at
those on the first boat, smiling uncontrollably for the thrills. Dom
was rather close to throwing up, but didn't as he wanted to outlast
Billy. He helped paddle the second towards the shore.
Billy noticed a gash
on Jenn's leg and was helping tend it best he could.
Indy beat the boats to shore, but barely made it onto the beach before passing out.
Bowie looked over at
Hunter, who was rowing enthusiastically with Steven whiles humming
'row row row your boat'. Naomi looked back to
the ship and saw a third boat coming, filled with other passengers .
She was helping to row the boat and it was coming very close to the
shore.
With the combined
efforts of Steven and Hunter, the boat hit sand first and the
passengers filed out accordingly.
Rose helped pull the
boat up the beach so it wouldn't wash away. The second boat pulled in
right after them.
Brendon stumbled off
the boat and dropped the hat beside Indy.
Hunter found both his
typewriter and suitcase and plopped down on the beach, attempting to
dry the machine and paper. Steven stood, talking to Bowie about the
situation at hand and Billy stood by Dom and Kate as they watched
faint sunlight showing in the distance.
Dom had overcome his
seasickness and watched the third boat pull in.
"I sure hope
somebody grabbed a deck of cards.." He said, looking towards the
sinking ship.
Bowie pulled out a map
he had managed to save.
"This doesn't
look good.. there's no island anywhere near our route. "
Steven
looked around surprisedly.
"It's.. uncharted. We'll be here for a while then... "
NEXT TIME, ON SIDETRACKED:
Steven stopped. "I hear running water.. "
"Evangeline, right?" asked Bowie as he undid her bindings.
