Lilly's POV: (age: 19, June 22nd 2015,9 am)

I wake up to the sound of the waves. I smile before i get ready for for another day of singing. 

I walk out onto the main deck, taking in the sight of the ocean

I walk out onto the main deck, taking in the sight of the ocean. I walk around making sure people on the cruise are happy. "Lilly, your on in 5, Zara called in sick" My boss, Adam says. I nod and walk to the stage.  

I tell James, the sound person, what i'm singing, he nods and smiles. I start singing.

After i finish, the audience wants another one, i nod with a smile "Alright, shall we have Mamma Mia or Why should i worry?" i ask and they all say Mamma Mia. I love having the audience decide on what song. 

I nod at James, who smiles and plays the backing track.

*about 9 hours later, 6 pm*

I'm singing on the stage when there is a slight sudden jolt, i stop and look at the sky to see the storm, everyone runs. 

I speed over to James "what the hell is going on!" i say just as a massive wave crashes onto the Ship. I fall onto James.

"i think the captain might of miss calculated the weather" James says as we look at the sky

I stand up. "You think?! I'm going to help the people get to the lifeboats, you coming or protecting your sound equipment?" I say as i hold my hand out to help him up. He says he will help while i lift him.

We get all of the passengers on the boats, when a woman screams her son is missing. I search the ship, ignoring James and Adam's Yells.

------------------------------------------------------------

I get to the lower deck, which i see has taken on water, I look for the the little boy, when i see a body. I turn it over to see who it is. "Zara" I say, my voice almost cracking.

I wipe the tears and run to a room, as soon as i get there i see the little boy go under. I quickly dive and grab him then take him to his mother.

"Here we are" I say before going to a free boat when another massive wave hits, causing me to go all the way to the other side of the Ship. "Go" James shakes his head, i glare. He sighs and the boat leaves.

I go looking for the blowup lifeboat, when a rod impales my leg,"This is how i die, great" I say to myself before I see the boat with James and Adam on catch on fire and sink.

"NO!" i look on in shock and heart break as i hear the screams mix with the waves of the ocean. I start to sing a simple lullaby, as a way to make their souls rest peacefully.
