August, 2007 Heading towards Manchester, England You can only hear the screams... You can only taste the salty water as you are plunged into the cold, black depths... You can only see the flames crackling against the water surface, and the luggage slowly falling to the bottom of the ocean... As you try to franticly pull yourself back up to the surface, your hands brushing against icy water in a desperate attempt to swim, you can vaguely remember what just happened. The plane you were on had crashed, whether it was a mechanical failure or deliberate tampering you aren't sure of. Just as the final bit of air is about to leave your lungs, you break through the ocean surface, taking in sweet gasps of air. What greets your eyes though, is anything but 'sweet'... You can see fire crackling about, plane debri floating on top of the ocean. In the distance you can make out the form of the plane wing, beginning to descend into the ocean itself. You franticly look about for land and at first all you can see is the horizon, that is... Out of the corner of your eye you can make out what seems to be jutting out of the water, though as you turn about you realize that this odd black tower is in fact what appears to be a lighthouse jutting out of the ocean. But you saw no land nearby, as far as you can see your in the middle of the ocean. What would a lighthouse serve here? Your curiousity is piqued, and you begin to wade towards it...

The black sky above was illuminated by the fire, the flames reflecting across the cold ocean water. The survivors were thrown about, trying to grab their bearings and not become victims of the ocean's grip. Garret fumbled about, trying to stay above the surface and not drown. It had all happened so fast; the crash, the screams, the fire...why had the plane fallen? Hadn't the pilot assured them all that it would be a safe flight?! |

Cenek breached, coughing out water and gasping for air as he treaded water, trying not to be sucked into the abyss below. Anyone around could hear him swearing as he struggled to stay above the water, swimming towards the lightouse in a panic. Nicole, however, was more fortunate. She had grabbed someone's floating duffle bag, probably filled with plastic bottles of some sort...or maybe pool toys? Nicole wasn't sure. She only kicked the water, trying to stay afloat, her eyes clenched shut. |

Skinner kicked upward, or at least in the direction that he thought was up, praying that he did not get disoriented in the water. He finally broke the surface, and looked about while treading water, trying to find driftwood, or spare luggage, or anything to keep him. |

In the distance, about a yard from the wreckage, a large jet black lighthouse could be seen protruding from the ocean depths. The large orb of light, basking at the top, shined down on the plane debri...though the light was drowned out by the flames. Against the nightly sky, it was nearly impossible to see the tower itself and if it was not for the bulb it would be quite difficult to notice. Steps rose from the water surface, slowly making their way across the lighthouse... ---- Garret saw the light house, and without even bother to ponder why it was there he began to swim with all his might towards the black tower. He was beginning to get tired, and he had sliced his leg on a piece of metal... |

Having recovered sufficiently to get his bearing, Skinner notices a light that's clearly not cast by the fire. Now a light like that means a lighthouse, and a lighthouse means land. So, we must be right off the coast of England! Pausing no longer, he battles the waves toward the light's source, and pulls himself onto the steps. He lies there for a moment, glad to be alive. |

Cenek pulled himself onto a step not far from skinner, gasping for air. He was soaked, and to be honest, he didn't much like water. Nicole was still a good distance away, kicking towards the lighthouse when a wave pushed her underwater. She pulled herself up, gasping for air. She wanted to scream for help, but other people had already drowned, having been ignored by the other survivors. Her only choice was to swim forward. |

Skinner sits up after moment and gazes into the sea. Wait a minute... "You into heroics?" he asks Cenek, though not physically acknowladging his presence. "I think I see more survivors out there." If there was only more light so he could be sure. |

Cenek barely responded, still gasping for air. "I...can't, I'd die..." |

Still swimming, Garret tried his best to stay afloat. His leg had begun to throb even more now, the salt water slipping into the gash. Not to mention the wound was bleeding rather badly, he was praying that the fire would keep sharks away. "Hello!?" He called, as the boy neared the lighthouse. He wanted to see if there were any other survivors about, he swore he had seen dark shadows making their way across the surface...though whether they truly were people he did not know. It could simple have been his mind playing tricks on him... |

Skinner coughs up some more water. The man had a point, but then again, they didn't call Skinner a moron for nothing. But he couldn't risk his life on a shadow. He flopped back down, ignoring the sharp step digging into his back. But then he heard the voice. "Hello?!" He shot back up. This was not a shadow. Still, he'd rather have a better guess at the voice's location before going in. Using the only way to do this that came to mind, he shouted "Marco!" |
