Another Way Home

Nowhere...

Pearl woke up, GASP, she looked around, in the distance she saw an island, a very very small island. She swam with all her last might till she got to the shore of the island. She felt the soft sand between her fingers. Getting up, she looked at the ocean and saw nothing, just water... "Oh no oh no this is bad!" she said starting to freak out. She started to explore the island. It was a nice island, quiet, peaceful but yet scary. Her stomach started to growl, she looked trying to find some type of fruit.

She saw a coconut tree about 100 feet away, she ran to the tree. She looked up at the tree and shook it. Backing away, a coconut fell. She picked it up, trying to think how she was going to open it... "How to open this..." She said confused, "Lets see if there is a big sharp rock... oh there is one!" Running to the rock she banged and banged and banged the coconut until she saw a little crack in it. She grabbed a twig and poked it into the crack. CRACK! The coconut popped open. She grabbed the twig and scrapped the meat out. She put the coconut down and grabbed some leaves, with the leaves, she made a leaf bowl. She gabbed the coconut and bowl and went to the shore of the island. She sat in the sand and drained the coconut water into the bowl, the she drank it and ate the coconut meat.

She stood up and looked to find something so that she can make a little hut for shelter. She walks over to a big tree and grabbed some of the bigger leaves, then she found a dead tree on the ground a took some a the big branches. She was going back to where the bowl of coconut water was but the she realized she was lost... "Umm uh oh" Pearl said looking around in the little tree forest she was in, "I think it was this way..." she said waking through the trees.

After a while she finally got back to her area and started to build the hut. By the time she was done, it was already dark, she was scared, so she went to sleep...

In the morning the bright sun beamed over the island waking her up, she was ok, everything was ok. She got up and went to the little forest and gathered twigs and two rocks. When she got them, she made a fire, in hope someone would see it. She sat there waiting, but when all things seemed to be going well... it started to rain.
