Into the Woods

how i got here

My name is April Moner. This is how I got in the woods. It was flight 349 and my flight was heading to Fiji and boy, I couldn't wait to get there.

After watching the series of "Lost", I was terrified of planes. My mom told me what the odds of this plane crashing, and I said, "well you're right". So I wasn't as scared as I looked. I was sleeping, felt the plane shake a little bit, but it always does that. It kept shaking, and the speaker talked "Fasten your seat belts please" said the pilot. Okay, now I was getting scared because that's exactly what happened in tv series Lost. The plane kept shaking, and I banged my head on the window. And I was out like a light.

I woke up in the freezing snow. I woke up with blood all around me, and every place I could see. I itched my face, and got a bloody hand. I tried to sit up, to see what was going on, but it seemed everyone was motionless, or dead. I got up and walked around, all I had was a light wind jacket that was light pink. I had shorts down to my knee, and was freezing.

I was only fourteen at the time, a month and six days until my sixteenth birthday. Somehow I manage to hunt my own food, and already created my own house. Thanks God I knew how to knit, because I already have knitted about 67 blankets, 42 shirts, 38 pants, and 81 socks. I don't have a lot of activities to do, so that's why you might be wondering why I have so many clothes. The fabric is made from deer, bears, and anything else I can find.

There were only about three people I saw like me, they were okay. I stared at them, I stared at my dead mom. How could I live without her? It seemed to be two boys and one girl. I think they were from the back of the plane, so they didn't get hurt. One little girl was walking around with her fuzzy teddy bear. She looked around four or five. Her bright red hair was shining like the white snow, her bright blue eyes were identical to a diamond. I heard her mom, crying out "Madison! Madison! I love you!" You could tell she was dying, she was dying with no arm. Madison would have to survive with no mom, just me and these two boys. The boys seemed to be about sixteen and fourteen, around my age. Who would take care of this little girl? Would it be me? Would it be these two boys who seem in shock? We all are balling our eyes out, because everybody is dead!

I got the boys names- Jack and Marcus.
