Prologue
—————————————————————————————————————
Screams. There was so much bellowing that could be heard everywhere- rippling cries in countless directions blocking the cognizance of a woman that had a large sum of weight that settled upon her left arm. Until her eyes cracked open slowly. Forcing her to be even more disoriented than before. She found herself face to face with dirt since the left side of her face was laying on the ground, while trees surrounded her body. She was quite confused as to why she found herself in this predicament in the first place. That was until she realized what had occurred.
The plane had crashed.
Making her shuffle around as she let out a big gasp.
The plane she was in crashed.
Trying to scramble up on her feet.
How did it Manage to crash? She thought as she was quickly brought down by the weight on top of her arm. Making her grunt back down to stop herself from straining it anymore.
The lady looked over, panicking now as she took in the chunk of metal that was on top of her arm. It was a large piece that was somewhat flat on the bottom but held some sharp edges, though the top was oddly shaped. So she couldn’t decipher what piece of the plane it was. But fortunately enough for her it stopped just before her elbow leaving room for the rest of her body to move, letting her maintain a kneeled position.
-Screams. Screams were still being heard around her. Names, cries, and everything in between. Despite not being able to see the people that they belonged to, they were out there somewhere. Which means she could get help and help is clearly what she needed.
Looking around once more at where she was, the lady began her attempt at screaming “HELP” up into the air, But only a small twisted croak came out. Alarmed and puzzled, She tried screaming for help again and nothing. “No no no”. The woman thought, clutching her free hand to her throat as she tried screaming again and nothing came out. Making her look around frantically as she began to heave in and out quickly. Overwhelmed and distraught she tried to tug her arm just for her to be met with nothing but pain halting her movements as she let out a silent cry. Having her face welcome the tears that flowed down since she wouldn’t be welcomed by anything else soon. Slowly the woman’s breathing calmed down. Mainly because she started to get light headed with how much she was hyperventilating. Though her tears still kept flowing every so often. Taking a deep breath the woman tried to compose herself as best as she could before seeing if she could move the fingers on her left hand. Fortunately enough for her in trying she felt a small pulse in her hand as she slightly twitched it which was good. Really good, because that meant her nerves still worked and that there was a slight space between her and the metal.Though if she didn’t do something now she wasn’t sure whatever circulation she had left would stick for later.
Therefore the lady began digging, digging like crazy non stop. Ignoring the pebbles she felt scratch her skin up here and there as some of the dirt she was moving found a new home inside the fingernails of her right hand. Normally stuff getting in her nails would bother her as much as food getting stuck in her teeth making her need to clean it as soon as possible, but priorities called in and reminded the woman she has other pressing matters to focus on so her attention stayed where it needed to be. After a while of digging on the right side of her arm, underneath it, and then awkwardly on the left side. She finally took a pause to assess where she was at by moving her arm around and she noticed she made it a bit more than halfway up her arm. She tried to see if she could pull her arm a little but there seemed to be a rough piece of metal above the woman’s wrist stopping her. It was sharp enough to cut her if she wasn’t careful so she’d have to dig more underneath to prevent that, but before she began again she looked around, and then back down and noticed three things. One it was almost nightfall, two the screaming had stopped, and three she had a mini dirt mountain layed on top of her. So she pushed whatever remaining dirt that was on her to the left side and got back to work. Though her pace had slowed severely, considering that whatever adrenaline she had before clearly ran out. Maybe It’s because of how much energy she had put into panicking earlier, digging, or the fact that this whole situation was exhausting but she was over it. Surviving for her life wasn’t something she had planned to do on this trip. She was more focused on how she’d spent living it. Yet life clearly had other plans for her, making her sigh. As she leaned upon the metal on top of her arm slightly whilst tunneling with her eyes closed.
BOOM!
The woman heard out in the distance making her shuffle upwards as her eyes shoot you and look around frantically. “It was night time?!” The woman thought as she sat in shock. Seeing as she couldn’t see much with the dark skies above her since she had clearly fallen asleep. The bit of drool she had on her chin let her know as well. She used the inside of her shirt to wipe it off.
BOOM!
The lady heard again making her quickly use her right hand to feel around how far she had gotten at freeing her left, and thankfully it was far. She had gotten up to her wrist, around the sides and about up to a quarter of your palm underneath. Giving the woman enough space to pull it out- but slowly. As she began she heard that sound again.
BOOM!!
Except this time the sound was a little bit closer. Trying not to panic further from the noise that was already tugging at her heart rate. She put as much focus as she could onto pulling her hand out by having her breathing sync up with her tugs. Slow breaths equaled slow pulls and that remained true until she heard another-
BOOOM!
But this time it came even closer and she realized the sounds she was hearing had been some of the trees falling down as she could hear the wood crack and roll .
“Oh fuck no”. The woman thought as she looked down at her arm. Moving her hand she realize she had gotten a little less than her mid palm-
BOOM!
“Fuck it”. The lady thought as she yanked the rest of her hand out letting yet another silent scream escape her as tears started rolling down. The rough piece of metal barred no mercy on her skin, it did not care that trees were falling, and that she was trying to free herself. It decided to part with significance by leaving a nasty gash between her mid palm all the way up to her middle finger. Her hand was bleeding like crazy and burned like hell. Though priorities were set and she had to get out of here. Thus her stumbling upwards, staggering into a sprint in the opposite direction of the metal that once held her still, as she held her wrist to her chest for some sort of comfort.
BOOM!
She heard again. Although it was further away causing her somewhat of a relief that was until she heard a blood curdling scream that followed shortly after. Making her run even faster as she tried to even her breath to somewhat pace herself though to no avail her body was heaving against her and her legs were burning more than the stomach of someone who drank a bottle of hot sauce.
Despite the odds being against her and what was starting to feel like her body as she felt it craving to lock up so that she could stop. She spotted a clearing between the trees ahead of her that was magnified by what she could only assume to be a fire pit that came before it. As she got closer, relief somewhat spread through her spirit as she saw people on a beach. PEOPLE ON A BEACH!! She thought excitedly but before she could’ve made it any further she tripped on something hard. Making her spiral out of consciousness as she tumbled out into the clearing.

“Hey guys”…A man with a large round figure and curly hair started speaking slowly in hopes of catching the attention of the other people around him whilst his eyes remained focused towards the treeline, But to no avail the group hadn’t paid attention. Seeing as they were all stunned by seeing the trees fall with the mystery noises that was led by whatever it was making it drop.
“GUYS!”Herly called again.
“What?” a southern man questioned slightly irritated.
“LOOK!” The curly haired man said pointing in the direction of where a lady stayed still on the ground.
Making them rush over.
