Melissa wrapped her arms around him in a hug, and said "You're already there! Without you we'd be lost!"
Lightning struck a nearby tree, and it began to fall to the ground. Right where Melissa and Jackson were standing.
"Look out!" Daley screamed. Jackson and Melissa sprang out of the way just before the tree crashed to the ground. Jackson heard Melissa cry out, but branches blocked his vision.
"Are you alright?" He yelled.
"I stepped on a sharp rock." he heard Melissa say through clenched teeth. Jackson got up are ran around the tree.
"Come on!" Nathan yelled from the tent.
"Can you walk?" Jackson asked Melissa. She shook her head. He reached down, picked her up, and ran to the tent. Nathan rummaged around for the first aid kit.
Jackson set Melissa down, and after doctoring her foot, they sat and listened to the thunder until, one by one, they fell asleep.
-------------------------------------------
The next morning, they all climbed out of the tent and blinked in the sunlight. Jackson supported Melissa, and Taylor hung on to Eric. The camp lay in ruins. They trudged on to the plane. Or what was left of it. Only a wing and a door lay among scraps of metal.
"What are we supposed to do now?" Taylor said.
Jackson hopped on the wing, grabbed the door, and replied with four simple words. "We start from scratch."
DAY 11-TO BE CONTINUED ----------------------------------------
A/N: I'm so evil, just like the show! Speaking of, I'm gonna try and finish this before the new season starts. So it will only be for the first season. Someone else can take care of the second season. Also, I'm not going to continue on this, that's just what the show said. So pretend Melissa's limping when you watch Look Who's Not Talking. I was so mad when I watched Scratch for the first time during the marathon. I was screaming at the TV, and according to my friend Liesl, the funniest part was my green tongue from a lemon-lime Popsicle. It wasn't funny when they were this close to being rescued! Stop laughing at me!
