~~Nikki POV~~

I heard muffled screams and shouts around me, waking up my own senses. I glanced over to Mindy, who was looking under the seats for emergency bags. I flickered my eyes over to Scarlett, who was still unconscious in Hannah's arms.

I gave a glance over to Ari, who was giving a small boy her lifevest, a smile resting on his mother's tear streaked face. I noticed that the lady didn't have a lifejacket either, and I immediately stepped next to Ari and gave it to her.

"Thank you so much," she said, another tear slipping from her eyes. I smiled sadly at her; she picked up her son as the plane gave another jerk downwards.

"It's nothing, ma'am. I can swim," I bluffed, knowing very well that I couldn't. Ari knew too, but she kept silent. The lady and her son rushed to a corner of the plane. Ari smiled and nodded.

"Nice," she commented. "But how will you...you know..." I shrugged, falling down as the plane took another fall.

"I don't know...but what 'bout you? You can't either." Ari slyly smirked, helping me stand.

"I took one of the terorrists," she admitted, dragging me quickly back to Mindy, who was biting her nails to the nub. I playfully slapped Ari's shoulders.

"You know what, I won't even ask," I remarked, falling yet again. I felt a sudden jerk of hand and my hazel orbs met a pair of chocolate brown ones. I froze in my actions; it was one of the terorrists.

"Let me go," I demanded, struggling against his strong grip, my eyes never leaving his.

That's when it hit me.

They weren't terorrists.

In fact, the 'terorrist' helping me was Siva Kaneswaran...from The Wanted. A smirk appeared on his handsome face as he realized that I recognized him.

"Now do you know who I really am?" he asked, pulling me closer to his body. I nodded, frozen in shock and fear.

"Siva...we're gonna crash. I can feel it," I mused, my knees almost buckling. I glanced over to Mindy again, watching her and Ari help Hannah with Scarlett.

The plane gave a final jerk, and my stomach leaped. We were crashing. Siva pulled me even closer and covered my eyes.

"I don't want you to see others not make it," he whispered, pulling a lifevest over his muscular body. I gasped; I didn't have a vest. Before turning to Siva, he threw me on his back, securing my arms around his neck.

I felt a sensation of darkness overwhelm me before I passed out.

Within seconds, I felt my clothes soaked with water and arms over Siva.

"Siva...what's going on?" I felt Siva sigh as he realized my consciousness.

"Thank God you're alive, darling," he began, swimming and floating in the ocean. "We, luckily, survived." I smiled, but my mind wondered off to Ari, Mindy, Scar, and Hannah.

"What about the others?" For a second, Seev stopped in place.

"I don't know, love. Tom's vest was taken, and Jay took a girl down with him. Blonde, curls...Hannah I believe. Max and your other friend went down together, as he was fancying her." I nodded, processing the information.

Wait...

"Seev, what about Ari?" Siva began to swim again, but didn't answer.

"Siva, what about Ari?" He sighed and turned to face me.

"Nikki, the last I saw of Ari was her and Tom arguing. I don't know what happened after, because the plane crashed rather quickly." I panicked and tried to get off Seev's back, but he held me. I felt me face pale as I caught sight of floating bodies, all dead and bloody. My heart broke as I saw the little boy and his mother, the two we helped, dead, blood coming from their bodies. A tear trailed down my face, which was wiped away by Siva's large thumb.
