Arya's pulse threatened to tear her skin from within. Where was she? Her breath came out in clumps, her vision was blurry. Something was making her ankles and wrist numb. Her first instinct was to scream, but all that came out was a whimper. She gathered whatever strength that was left in her and made a feeble attempt at placing the puzzle pieces in their rightful places. What was her last memory?

Vague pictures of an unfamiliar environment came into view , 221B Baker street, yes, that's where she was headed,-The Sherlock Holmes' Museum. She was going to fulfill a promise she had made to herself even before she landed in England. Sarah had accompanied her too, wait, WHO was Sarah?

BEEP-BEEP- BEEP- Panic mode on.

Pictures immediately went from a blur to 1080p Hd video. An entire week flashed by her eyes.

Arya Had barely boarded the flight and settled when her phone buzzed. "Take care, already missing you" the message from baby read.

"Please switch off your phone ma'am" said the flight attendant who had appeared out of nowhere...or so Arya thought.

"We are about to take off" She said in her honey coated voice. She had a mild fragrance of orchids around her. Her eyes were a mix of ocean blue and a jade shade-an eye color like no other. With those plush red lips and that attractive physique, she could make any guy fall madly in love with her.

"Sorry" Arya had replied in a low tone. She somehow felt intimidated by the woman standing next to her. That's when the tingling sensation had begun. Arya for the first time felt it queer, because she was rarely intimidated by a person-by situations, celebrities, or larger than life monuments-yes. By a stranger, this was a first. As the attendant strode towards the other passengers in her sky Blue attire, Arya swiftly took out her phone "Turning off my phone, will call once I reach" she had typed.

From the corner of the eye, she noticed the attendant returning. She quickly slid her phone inside and put on her headset. She clicked her iPod on and played 'go go' by BTS. The attendant passed by gracefully but Arya had a gut instinct that she was being watched. May be this was because she was outside her comfort zone? She dismissed it with shake of her head and lost herself to music.

Arya shifted uncomfortably. How long was she asleep? She peered out of the window. Oh yeah she was seated with a window to her left. It was dark outside. A jerk shook her up.

"We are facing severe air turbulence; all the passengers are requested to remain calm" The honey coated voice announced. "Ladies and gentlemen, the Captain has turned on the fasten seat belt sign. We are now crossing a zone of severe air turbulence. Please return your seats and keep your seat belts fastened. Thank you."

Another violent Jerk made Arya jump. Rain began to pelt on to the window. She could see flashes of lightening outside. She tried to keep herself distracted but the knot in her stomach tightened with every passing moment. Little did she know that the next few moments were about to change her life.

A big jolt and she hit her head against the flight wall. Everything went black.

Arya opened her eyes with a start. Her Entire body ached. She felt groggy. It was cold and In the middle of nowhere... She could hear moans and sound of weeping. But mostly everything was eerily silent. She tried to loosen her seat belt. That's when a pain shot up her left shoulder causing her to yelp. This pain cleared her senses. Everything around was damaged.

The plane had crashed.
