Hundreds of people shoved passed frantically rushing through the airport terminal. Christmas decorations lined the frames. As people frantically dashed for there plane terminals.
The holiday season as most people know leaves airports packed to the brim at Christmas time hundreds of thousands of people in one spot as the boarding began. It's chaotic and loud. Most manage just fine, however A family of five stood in the long line the father Logon Pierce a CEO was growing impatient with the whole situation. His three kids we're beginning to fuss. The four-year-old was gawking at everything in awe at all the Christmas decorations. Her older brother rolled his eyes and stuck in his AirPods pulling out his phone to change the song. It was always like this his fathers temper. The boy closed his phone to save the battery and looked around at the other passengers besides his family there where about thirty or so people. Two of them caught his intreat they were a young couple. Who couldn't have looked more different one was dressed in a nice business suit while the women looked like she stepped out of hot topic. As the boy named Tomas noticed they had started boarding he took his sister hand leading her through the scanner one last time. Finding their seats had been a whole other disaster as fifty or more people struggled to do the same. The plane had only taken off for about an hour they were head overseas to a cruise in the Caribbean islands. As young Annie stared out the window she saw a strange cloud grouping together. "Tommy look" Her brother just nodded his head not taking his eyes off his phone. "That's fascinating," Tomas Peirce said in a sarcastic tone. His sister in front hit him with a wound up magazine. "Tommy your not looking," his baby sister said as his older sister glared at him.
"Tried my spots, if you're going to be an ass" He rolled his eyes and stood up to trade spots as the emergency seat belt button came on. His father told him to sit down and buckle up. The pilot came on over the Entercom.
"Were experiencing some minor turbulence" these words made a young man behind them panic.
"I told you getting on a plane and leaving the country was a bad idea" the ginger-haired boy shot a nasty look at an older ginger boy.
"Dude calm down" the older brother chuckled nervously trying to conceal his own fear.
"I'm trying to," the boy said freaking out a little. "Zach breath" he looked to another blonde-haired girl who gave Zach her phone. "Just listen to some music". He gave her an unsure look and put in the headphones as the pilot said he was preparing to turn around as he said this a look of horror crosses his face. "Tur-" The captain wasn't able to finish his sentence as a large rock hurdle toward him smashing through the windshield and shattering it into thousands of little pieces as hail begin to pound the inside of the cockpit. The co-pilot tried desperately to land the plane and get out of the storm but as he was trying to navigate a sharp piece of hail hit him in the eye and he blacked out pushing the controls forwards causing The plane began to increase in speed rather than decrease. The plane began to spiral towards the ground as the flight attendance rushed about the cabin trying to make sure everyone was buckled it was chaos as the side of the wing of the plane made a connection with lightening. The lights flickered on and off as bullet-like hail pummeled the large plane. Screams of terror and flight attended yelled and raised about trying to secure everyone. Within a minute the plane crashed into a large dense forest it's impact was anything but smooth it ripped the tree in half jolted the passengers in every direction. It was mayhem. Little Annie Pierce was screaming as her brother lay motionless next to her. A flight attendant was jostled into there laps. Annie grabbed hold of her hand as the front half of the plane began to make a strange sound and the front half snapped like a twig. The seat in front of her parents and all the passengers plummeted to there doom. Crying, screaming, and cursing could be heard bout the cabin. "Mommy!" cried Annie. To her horror, no answer came from her parents to her delight her sister poped up with a scratch across her face and a few bruises. She bent down and shook the flight attended who's eyes opened it took her a moment to comprehend what had happened. She pulled herself up surveying the damage.
"Everyone slowly stands up, those who can't move to stay put well come to you" She began to find able bodies. People it was apparent that most people just wanted out. Annie's older sister looked around panicked.
"Sir, can you help me move my mom and dad?" An older dark-skinned man with disshuffled hair said nothing but nodded his head tossing her mother over his shoulder he crawled carefully out of the plane then back in through all it this Annie tried to wake her brother with forceful shakes. His eyes slowly opened as the plane to rock back and forth the weight too much for the trees. Annie pulled on her brother's hand as the creaking increased they were barely able to climb out into the tree branch when the rest of the plan gave way. Those on the ground scattered as dust and debris were thrown into the air. Annie clung to her brother as the dust cleared a handful of people were scattered on the floor below.
"Tommy?" Annie whispered frightened. Tomas was numb to his sister's words as he picked her up and climbed down the tree. His mother was still unconscious and he was pretty sure his father went down with the plane the gravity of the situation was freaking him out. The sound of panicked people from all around him, people rushing about through the debris. Tom tried to reign in his feelings but the more he thought about it. The more his heart raced they wrecked in an unknown location without food or water. He looked around at the other survivors and groaned. There futures looked bleak. He'd seen all the movies and read all the books. It never ends well when there wasnt enought food. Looking in land he hoped that something hidden in the dense trees was fresh food.
