Saving Sandy by PurpleKorea134
35 parts Complete Mature
Falling deeply in love with her idol from the 1920s... and saving his life... Katie Hearst, a mountain climbing enthusiast, gets the shock of her life when she is sent back in time and meets the soon-to-be mountaineering legend Sandy Irvine as he goes to school at Merton College, Oxford, England. She knows his story - he perishes on Mt. Everest with other mountaineering legend George Mallory as they try to reach the summit on June 8th, 1924. She befriends him, as well as those closest to him, and lives life in the last bit of 1923 and early 1924. When she realizes that she can save his life, she decides to tell him not to go to Everest. He is determined to go, though, which makes her mission difficult. Also... she falls in love with him while trying to accomplish her mission and while she spends time with him and his friends. He falls in love with her, too, and this causes problems with his married girlfriend Marjory. How will Sandy react when he realizes that the real reason why Katie glued herself to his side was to convince him to give up on his dreams? Well, regardless, it could ultimately save his life. Based on the true story of the mountaineering legend Andrew Comyne Irvine, or Sandy, the young 21-year-old Englishman who had a dream of summiting the tallest mountain in the world, and who aimed to do so with other mountaineering legend George Mallory. Whether they reached the summit or not is a mystery to this day. Sadly, they died on the mountain. Sandy's body hasn't been found while George's was found back in 1999. This story takes place right before Sandy leaves for Everest, and he is your average 1920's Oxford student. Most the events are based off of real events that happened with Sandy, as told in his biography called "Fearless on Everest" written by his great-niece Julie Summers. Rating Warning: some language, sexual content & sensuality (no sex scenes, but it is implied)
