All four had lay strewn on the broken deck of the ship. No one had enough energy to get up, except Leo. He had looked around at his surroundings and found that they were stranded on an island, and there was no sign of the mountains, for the fog around the island was so thick, he could’ve mistaken it for a blizzard.  He walked over to Zelda first. “Hey, Hun. Is everything still dark?”

                “Hun? Really? No matter. And yeah. Still dark,” Zelda said with short breath. Leo felt bad that he had left the first aid kit, but then again; it wasn’t supposed to hurricane on their “fishing” trip.

“Well, I’m just checking on y’all,” Leo decided to walk over to Noah and Mark. They both lay restless, “No no no no no!  Guys, wake up!” Leo started to freak out and found a bucket in the captain’s room, and filled it with water from the lake. He almost tripped over Zelda as he was running over to the two and splashed the water on them.

                “What the heck?! Valdez, you are going to pay for this!” Noah instantly arose and stood ten feet over Leo. Mark took a little longer however. But, he was alive. That’s all that mattered. “Well now that you guys are up, I can go help Zelda,” Leo had motioned and scampered over to her crippled aid.

                “Where are we, Leo? How did we crash?” Zelda spoke. Her voice was as dry as the sand on the Sahara desert. “Well, I assume we are on an island that came out of the middle of nowhere. And how we got here, the storm that started happening. Any more questions class?” Leo had tried to humor the group, but with the situation they were in, nobody was in the mood for jokes. They had to find a way out, and fast.

“Alright, if we are going to explore this island, then we need to stay together,” suggested Mark, “If we split up, then we may not see the lights of day again.”

                “Oh it must be SO horrible,” said Zelda sarcastically. “I’m sorry. I didn’t-” for some reason Mark was cut off. Leo tried to speak; his mouth moved but no words came out. Noah tried as well. Nobody could talk. It was like some sort of silencer around them. So then Leo put Zelda’s arm over his shoulders and motioned to the other guys to walk to the entry into the forested area.
