Survivors
Alex awoke with a start, screaming people all around him. He got up and looked around, he was on a beach, and behind it was a huge forest and mountain. Plane pieces were littered everywhere. He got up, panting, scared. He looked around, trying to find his mum or dad
"Mom? Dad?" he shouted, running along the beach; tears forming in his eyes again "Where are you?"
Other people were shouting too, others looking for their luggage or screaming. He ran past a girl in a skirt and pink jacket just stood there screaming. He looked ahead, a plane engine was still turning, a man stood dangerously close
A man jumped out from the bushes leading into the forest. It was the same guy from the plane. Alex ran up to him and burst into tears
"I can't find my parents anywhere" he said, placing his hands over his eyes
"Ok, c'mon, I'll help you find the, I promise..." he said
-Flashback-
"I promise you" said the man, seeing him panic "We'll be-"
Another time he was cut off, as the tail further behind them ripped off from the rest of the plane.
------------------------------------------
"Are you coming?" asked the man, up ahead
Alex shook his head "Yeah... Coming..."
He ran further up the beach, catching up with the man "What's you're name anyway?" asked Alex
"It's Jack" he replied "And yours?"
"Alex..."
"Ok, stay here Alex, I'm gonna help that man under the plan engine. Stay here ok? I'll be right back"
Jack ran off to help the man under the engine. Alex just stared around. What could have possibly caused this? He saw the man stood close to the engine; he looked familiar somehow. But he didn't know where. He looked around again, and saw a pregnant girl getting to her feet. He looked around again, and just started walking. In the distance an explosion went off. Alex fell to the floor, pieces of debris fell around him.
"What's going on!" he shouted, pulling himself up
He looked around again, trying desperately to find his parents. They were nowhere to be seen. He walked around, seeing parts of the fuselage dotted here and there. He walked into the shade, under a wing. Jack rushed back to where he thought Alex would be
"Alex!" he called
Jack spotted the pregnant girl, and started helping her, talking about the unborn baby.
The wing creaked over them. Alex looked up, it started falling slightly
"Alex! Get away from there!" shouted Jack, after moving the pregnant girl safely away
Alex just stared at the wing, death-heading straight towards him. He felt a pain in his side. Jack had pushed them away, just as the wing fell and exploded. More people screamed as they hit the sand
Alex got up, Jack too. They stared at each other for a second, then Alex hugged Jack "Thank you," he whispered
