I would like to thank icarlyfreak for my first ever review. A reminder, the chapters are just outlines, any suggestions will be apreciated. Just after the crash, so read.

Freddie's p.o.v.:

Pain.

Unbelievable pain.

The secret. (A/N: sorry wrong book… or is it?)

I slowly try to open my eyes, it is light out. It is kind of blurry, I tried to move, but it hurt too much. I let out a long groan and rolled over. My waist down was semi floating in the water, and my legs didn't seem broken. I started to crawl towards a nearby tree.

I pulled myself up, but almost immediately fell again. My head was throbbing.

"Owwwwwwww…" I looked around for where the sound came from. I saw a lump near the river with a yellow end. I was over taken with adrenaline, and ran to Sam and turned her on her back.

"Sam!" I was trying to wake her up and she groaned again and opened her eyes slowly as I sat her up.

"Are you ok?" I asked.

"Yeah I think so. What happened?"

"We crashed. Can you stand?"

"Of course I can you nub." She said sarcastically. She tried to stand and she stumbled but I caught her. She glared at me and said "Let go of me." I let her go and I started to look around. We were in a large square shaped lake, about 400 yards wide, with a large island in the center. There was a small cliff the far side. I looked at the lake and I realized the incredible thirst I had.

I walked over to the lake and kneeled down and drank some. I got up and saw Sam was still drinking water.

"We need to figure out what we need to do." I sat down in a small clearing on some smoother rocks. She came over and sat too.

"Let's see what we have to work with." I said. We both started to empty our pockets.

"I have twelve dollars and 16 cents, a paper clip, and a deck of cards." Sam said while laying them out in between us.

"I have a broken cell phone, a few credit cards, and a," I pulled my good luck charm from my belt, "hatchet." Sam gave me a puzzled expression and I explained.

"My dad was always afraid of flying, so he always brought a hatchet on plane rides. I know random." I said.

"Apparently it wasn't so lucky." She said rolling her eyes.

"Duh."

"So we are stuck in the wilderness, with a little money, some useless plastic, some playing cards, and a hatchet."

"Not true, we have our minds." I said without thinking.

"Wow, that isn't cliché at all. You are such a dork."

"Another thing, we have clothes."

"How does that help our situation?"

"Well, would you rather be naked?"

"I see." she said looking a little uncomfortable.

"We need a shelter first, then food, then fire. Let's go look at the cliff over there for a cave."

I got up and put my contribution to the supply list back in my pockets, and she did the same. We started walking to the cliff. When we got there we started to look around.

The cliff was about 100 feet tall sheer cliff face. About five yards up, was a large opening.

"Hey Sam, come here."

"What?" She said jogging from the lake.

"I'll try to boost you up to that opening, see what it is like." We walked up to right below the opening and I cupped my hands in front of me. She put her foot in my hands and a hand on my shoulder. She jumped and I lifted and her hands caught the opening. I pushed a little higher, and she pulled herself in the opening.

"What does it look like?" I yelled.

"It looks great, now all you have to do is find your own shelter."

"Sam!" I yelled in an exasperated voice.

"What, you can't get up here, so you have to find your own, so ha."

I looked around and there was a large boulder to my right. I got behind it and rand towards it. When I reached it, I jumped and took three steps on it and jumped the five feet gap between the boulder and the opening. When I hit the ground, my knees buckled and I did a roll and popped up inches from Sam's face.

"We share the cave." I smirked at her dumbfounded face. I turned to look around the cave.

It was a large round circular room, about three yards across, and in the center there was a long shaft going up to the top of the cliff. On the side of the shaft were foot holes that looked like they were made to be a ladder.

"This must have been an ancient Indian room." I said still taking it in. The ceiling was around six feet tall and I jumped to the shaft and grabbed the first foot hold.

I started to pull myself up with my arms and until I got my foot in the hole.

"How did you get so strong?" Sam said from below me and I heard her grab the first hold.

"Fencing requires more energy than it looks."

"Then I should pick it up if we get back because I can barely do this." I realized now how easy it was for me.

"When we get back not if." I corrected.

"Whatever."

I reached the top and pulled myself out and turned to help her by offering my hand. She rejected it and I looked around. The opening was on top of a steep hill away from the cliff. I looked at the bottom of the hill and there were some bushes.

"Hey I think there are some berries at the bottom." Sam walked up beside me and looked. "Fist one there gets the first berry." I started to run down the hill but after a few steps fell and started to roll. I began laughing hysterically. I heard someone else laughing and I caught a glimpse of Sam. I was taking a breath when she collided with me. We began rolling over each other and slid to a stop. I was on my back and she saw laying on me.

There was a long pause… a really long pause where we stared into each other's eyes. There was a long lock of hair in her face and I reached up and moved it behind her ear. We started inching ever so closely to each other.

A bird screeched and we both jumped. She rolled off and I got up. We walked over to the berries and started to eat slowly. We wouldn't look at each other and after a while I turned to look around more.

"I think we could put rock or wood over the top hole to keep rain out."

"Be quiet this is my eating time." I turned around and saw that she had almost emptied the bush.

"Sam, if you eat all of those before we find other food, we will both starve." She stopped eating immediately. "We need fire first."

"Get a board and a stick, and spin the stick." She said like it was obvious.

I started chuckling and she glared at me. I explained "It is not that easy, but if you don't believe me, you try your way and I'll try mine."

I turned around and looked for some flint. After about a half hour of looking, I found a large section of the cliff with flint. I took out my hatchet and struck it with a glancing blow. Sparks exploded onto my feet.

I smiled and pulled my arm back and struck it harder and squarer. A large chunk of flint hit the ground by my foot. I picked it up and stuck it in my pocket.

I started back to the shelter, picking up dead leaves and sticks when I stopped at a pine tree. I pulled back some bark and examined the inner tree.

"Much too wet and soft," I said to myself. I sighed and a bird screeched from above. I looked at where the sound came from, and a bird was perched on a branch about ten yards up. I dropped the hatched into the case on my belt, and grabbed a low branch. I pulled myself up to sit on a branch. I started climbing till I was face to face with a cardinal.

"Hello there, I need your nest," I said to the bird. The bird screeched and flew at me. I reached for the hatchet and swung at the bird. The blade made contact and the head dropped to the ground. I looked at the hatchet and the body was stuck on a branch.

"Thank you for dinner." I said.

I set the bird carcass in the nest and carefully climbed down and turned to head back to the shelter.
