Stranded (Brett Eldredge )

(3) survival 10..1?

Hot  , hot , hot . I was hot like burning hot. I moved my hand in front of my face and blocked the  heat. Wiggling my toes in the sand.

I froze . Sand and water. I was on a beach! I sat up looking for Brett or Cody . All I saw was miles of ocean.  Tears formed in my eyes.

" Brett !!" I screamed standing up. I looked at my legs. They were scratched , bruised and sandy.  My hands had deep gashes.  The tears began to stream down my face when I saw the emerald green or what was left of it.

Debris scattered everywhere. I walked towards the boat and saw Brett laying by it. I ran to him and evaluated his injuries.

He had bad bruises covering his face , blood stained the front of his shirt.  Easily lifting his shirt up I gasped. Small splinters surrounded a large splinter on his chest. I easily, but slowly plucked them out. Leaving me to see if any other injuries needed to be attended to. His right ankle was swollen severely. No doubt it was broke.

" Brett , can you hear  me?" I said tapping his shoulder.

" come on Brett wake up" he stirred.

"There you go eyes open" his eyes slowly opened. Big blue/green orbs stared at me.

"What happened ?" He felt is chest and groaned.

" The boat wrecked and we're stuck on a deserted island , and I believe you have a broken ankle. "

"Wait the boat wrecked ? " I nodded and his eyes widened.

" Cody ? Where's Cody ?" He started to panic and jumped to his feet and fell the second his foot hit the ground.

" okay I think it's broke" he gently held his foot making sure not to move it.

"Stay here I'll look for Cody and something to splint your foot" he nodded and I started off toward the ship and sorted through the boards.

I found strips of bed sheets then I slowly discovered Cody.

I gasped and the tears ran down my cheeks. He wasn't breathing. Bending down and laying my hand on his chest I whispered a sorry and headed back to Brett.

The second he read my face he knew. He knew Cody wasn't alive and that we have no hope of getting off this island.

"So you're going to bandage my foot , then we need to find a shelter and food " he mumbled. I nodded and wrapped his foot securely.  Handing him a branch I found washed up then he got to his feet ,and hobbled towards the boat.

"First is first we need to put Cody to rest"

After our sea burial . Brett found a few boards and  a canvas sail. With those he made a small make shift tent. Later we rummaged up a crab and what was thought to be a blueberries. But to Brett's  misfortune they had caused me to have serious stomach cramps and throwing my guts up for hours.

That brings us to now were I lay under our tent watching the waves gentle come in and out. I closed my eyes and remembered all that had happened.

I started to cry . My sobs violently shook my body. Brett came back to comfort me, but I cried harder.

"You're fine , it'll be fine "

" Our ship just wrecked ,and you're calm about this  !" I screamed at him in disbelief. He smirked and used his left hand to ruffle my  hair.

"I happen to know survival 101" I frowned , I was going to die before we  were found. This nut case didn't know a vicinity from a cashew.

" have you heard about the legend crew ?" He asked and I shook my head.
