Stranded

The way it started

Dick laughed as Wally attempted to balanced ten candy bars on his head. The speedster had gotten bored after three hours, and was now attempting to keep himself occupied. Roy just sighed.

After five times, he finally gave up and sat back down. One of the perks of being the son of a billionaire was private jets. So, Wally was free to go to his usual antics without anybody complaining. Roy, however, was not a fan of the noise. He had gone on this vacation because it was supposed to be quiet.

Wally was about to start a conversation with Dick, but was interrupted by by the pilot. "Sorry to disturb you, sirs, but we're headed into some bad weather. Will all people sit down and buckle up?" Wally was unhappy with this, but he did it anyway.

The turbulence didn't take long to start. It was light at first. But quickly increased. At one point, Dick's head was slammed into the back off his seat, and he almost passed out. He had only avoided it because one of Wally's candy bars had hit him and snapped him out of it.

Then, the plane started to fall. The masks popped out from above, and the trio barely got them on before the plane slammed into the ocean. This time, all of them slammed into their headrests, and Dick was knocked out this time. When Wally noticed this, he tried to wake the younger man.

Roy noticed the nose of the plane had crashed first, and at the speed they were going, the pilots were dead. He heard a groan, and saw Dick open his eyes, to the obvious relief of Wally. Roy also saw one wing of the plane fall off. He pulled Wally to his feet and supported Dick as they walked. Dick stopped and grabbed two suitcases:his and Wally's. Roy grabbed his.

Wally opened the door and was nearly knocked off. A wave had hit the bottom of the plane. The bottom of the doorframe had been bent into sharp metal. He saw the wing and jumped. He swam and pulled himself onto the wing.

Roy was wondering how he was going to get a half-conscious man off when another wave slammed into the plane, knocking Roy and Dick off. Dick grabbed the doorframe, holding onto Roy.And just in time too. A big wave roared under them but missing Wally, something that would have surely pulled them both under.Dick let go, and they fell. After surfacing again, grabbing the bag Dick had dropped, they swam to the raft. Wally pulled them up, and grabbed the hand that Dick had grabbed the plane with.

There was a huge cut, right in the middle of his palm. It was bleeding, and it obviously pained Dick. When Wally touched it, Dick pulled his hand back, surprised by the sudden pain. After being pulled up on the raft, Dick ripped the hem off his shirt and wrapped it around his hand.

The three boys looked at the sinking plane. No one spoke. What would they say? What would make any of it better?
