Finding the Way Home

Chapter 1

Buddy's POV

      I wake up on the cold, snowy ground. I feel so much pain. I look around me to see where I am, and that's when I see it. What looks like to be the remains of the small plane that I got for my band and I. I turn to my left and I see what is supposed to be Ritchie Valens. He's for sure dead. The part of his head that he has left is completely covered in blood, and there are many other wounds on the rest of his body. I look for The Big Bopper, and I can't see him. He must have been on the other side of the plane. Has anyone else survived? Am I the only one? 

I try to get up and find my friend who has a chance of surviving. Since I can't find him, he could've gone searching for help, or on the sadder side, have joined Ritchie in Heaven. I only make it about 2 steps before my legs give up and can't support me. Again I feel stabbing pains, dying is probably better than what I'm feeling right now. I fall to the ground and the pain worsens. I try to crawl but I can't. The last thing I remember is calling for help and then everything.... went.... black.......

********************************************

 "Buddy! Buddy wake up!!!!" 

I hear Maria Elena's voice in my head.

"Buddy please!!! Don't leave me and the baby!!"

I try to respond to her but nothing happens. Her voice only gets quieter and it sounds like she is crying.

"You promised that you wouldn't leave me...."

I never break my promises. I have to wake up!!!

"I love you"

With those last words I can feel myself starting to wake. It's bright out now. There are people standing next to me. I can hear them talking about me to reporters.

"3 out of the 4 men on the plane were killed. The only survivor is Buddy Holly. He has a heartbeat, he's breathing, but he has not woke."

"How could he have survived?"

It takes all of my strength to say just one word.

"Help"

It was so quiet I didn't know if anyone had heard me.

"Did you hear that??"

"Hear what?"

One of the men looked down at me and saw that I had waken up. He called for the doctors and told the reporter....

"Buddy Holly is awake."

There is so much pain coursing through my body right. I can't move and I can barely talk. One of the doctors tells me to stay calm and still. I do as he says and try to keep myself awake, for I do not know if I will wake up again. The doctors took me away to the hospital and started to work on my injuries.
