Only three kids in my entire school were spared, four if you count me. I found a group of people heading to the east coast for a boat trip to a supposed safe haven in India. They died of disease days later. I found their bodies by the river. But I guess this is my life now, surviving with a scared boy, a pair of twins and trying to make it to the next day.

The event forces all passengers to head for the shore. Many don't survive. Those who do suffer the unrelenting wrath of mother nature and find themselves trapped with no idea what to do next. Everything would have been social chaos if not for human survival instincts, resulting in a sense of comradery and cooperation. Completely isolated and without communication with the outside world, most modern technologies must be completely reinvented for the purpose of returning home. Led by the captain, his right-hand man, and Pei, an ambitious bibliophile, the community races to assemble the raw materials around them. If the island's inhabitants cannot find a way to escape, they may only make life a bit more comfortable and a lot less primitive.Complete
