"They don't call it Mako Island for nothing. It's surrounded by sharks. It's a shark breeding ground." Alex said. "Exactly." Eliza said. "Well right now, that's the only place that's safe for us." I said. Just then, something bumped the side of boat...
I surfaced in the water and looked around. "Alex!! Alex!! Eliza!! Eliza where are you!?" I cried. I looked around but all I saw was water and waved as far as the eye can see. I screamed out for the girls. "Angel!!" Someone called. "Eliza!! Where are you?!" I called. "Over here!!" She yelled. I turned and saw her swimming towards me.

I swam over to her. "Where's Alex?" She asked. "I don't know!!" I said. "Guys over here!!" Alex yelled. We turned to see her swimming towards us. We swam towards her and hugged each other. "Oh my God this is so scary." Eliza said. "Yeah. Let's get back to the island before another shark attacks us." I said.
"Yeah Angel your leg has a cut. It will attract a shark." Eliza said. "It's not that bad." I said. "Still." She said. We swam back towards the waterfall we slipped from. We climbed onto one of the large boulders and sat there. I looked up at the sky. Gray clouds formed overhead. Then thunder. "Ah shit." Alex said.

"More rain?!" Alex cried. "Look let's just get back towards land." I said, as I stood up. The girls followed me. We walked around the forest, knowing where we're going. "Oh my God. We're lost." Alex said. "Not to start back playing the blame game but Alex why did you bring us all the way out into the ocean?" Eliza said. They started to go at it.
"Alright enough!! We've been over this. We cannot go at each other's throats." I said. "Really Angel? The boat is out of gas, no one knows we're out here, our phones are soaked so we can't call anyone, and we're lost." Eliza said. "And you know what's not gonna help?! Us screaming at each other!!" I yelled. She shook her head.
"Now look. We are going to get home. We just gotta find out way off this island." I said. "That's easier said than done." Alex said. We heard more thunder. We looked up at the night sky. I gasped. "It's been more dark than it was ten minutes ago." Eliza said.
