Thewater is coming in the toilet door, and the passenger rooms. Thepassenger seats and the deck were getting wet. Sanath said,


''Iam pretty sure this boat is going to sink in 10 hours!


''Allof us called the police and they went to the parties and we calledthe servants and the servants went to all the rooms. The servants gotall of life jackets, and then we called the police and said''Can youget the lifebotes ready?


''We got the flare rockets and climbed on top of the roof and fired therockets.


Iwent down to the deck below and suddenly the police called tous.''The passenger rooms have lots of water in them,and there arerats everywere.


''We kept trying to start the engine,but it wouldn't start.I said toPriydrshyni,


''Goand get the maps.'' Priydrshyni ran off as fast as lightning to getthem.


Isaid to Sanath,''Look at the wires in the steering wheel,try andsolder them togher.'' Priydrshyni ran towards me with the maps,thenshe tripped over a nail

andthe maps flew all over the floor!


Ipicked all the maps up and found the one I wanted. I said,''We havean icy island 20km to the south of us. ''Let's try and get there.''




Santhascreamed,''I've soldered the wires,try the engine.''




Priydrshynipushed the button, but it wouldn't start. The police yelled, ''Thepassengers seats are under water,


hurryup and do something.''I said,


''Weare.'' and slammed the phone down! The police called again andsaid,''The lights are going off and


Ican hear the wires crackling.'' ''The Trojan is sinking.


''I slammed the phone down. I said to Santha, ''We are sinking, go to alifeboat.


Weran towards the life botes, and saw the band playing. I said tothem,''Go towards the island,and take your violins.


''We jumped into the lifeboat that was left and rowed away from theship.

Weset and watched the Trojan sinking.





Suddenlythe Trojan went up in the air and slipped under the water. I couldsee some pieces of wood floating on top of the water.


Therewere a lot of passengers in the water,some had life jackets on.




Ahuge ship came and picked up the passengers and some swum towards thedoat. The passengers that swum towards the island didn't have food


andit was cold on the island.

Santhaand Priydrshyni and I slowly went towards the island in lifeboat.




Somepeople were lucky, and some weren't so lucky. When the Trojan startedits journy it was carrying 8000 people,but we lost 6000


people,and a nine eight trillion $ ship!
