The Island Plot

[John Lee]

The premise of The Island is a cruise liner sinks after a bad storm, and the survivors find their way to a deserted island. There they face the dangers of the island; be it poisonous plants, 'deadly' animals, or even their own shipmates.

-----------------
And the story begins...

It was stormy August night, and the captain ordered all of the passengers to their rooms.

'This is your captain speaking..', his gruff voice booming over the intercom.

'We've come into a rough patch, there's going to be some turbulence, so I advise all passengers to stay in their rooms and all ship hands report to your stations. Thank you.'

There was a nervous hush about the liner and the shouts from the men could just barely be heard above the crashing waves. Minutes passed, and the waves became less audible, the mens shouts less frantic, and soon enough the boat swayed gently with the calm current.

'This is the captain once again. We're through the rough patch, and the horizon is now clear, you may feel free to move around the ship once again. Thank you for your cooperation.'

The captain set down the microphone and turned to his first mate,

'We should have seen that coming.', he said in a low voice.

The first mate slowly shook his head, eyes fixed on the radar screen.

'There might be more like that..' he paused.

'Tell the men to double check the life boats; make sure they're secure. And have one of them watch the sea like a hawk, she's worrying me tonight.'

With that the first mate hurried off to obey his captains orders.

"damnú air!" Said Oliver as he stumbled down the hall to his room. He was a little laggered from the nights events. He had been playing poker with some boys he had met when he arrived. One had an older brother who had bought them some booze. The others were suprised at how much he had drank, and amazed further at how he handled himself. When one boy asked him how he was able to drink so much beer, Oliver only replied with a smile "You obviously have never met a real Irishman."

When he finally arrived at his door he opened it and flopped into the nearest chair and lit a cigarette with a flick of his shiny metallic lighter. After a few calming minutes he had finished his cigarette and went over to pass out on the bed.

[John Lee]

John was laying on his bed in his room for a while after the people on the intercom told the passengers to say in their rooms. Even though that would not last to long for John. He would soon enough get bored and leave the room. John lifts his head and looks at the table in front of his bed. The table consisted his lap top which was opened and on the weather website. It showed a storm happening where the cruise ship was, periodically he would look at it Until he finally gets up, walks over to the lap top, and looks at it for a second before closing it up. He picks up his book bag takes his lap top and puts it into. Takes the book bag straps and puts one through each arm. He finally walks over to the door turns off the lights and walks out.

John walks around the ship for a while. Once in a while he will pass one of the staff on the ship that would tell him to go back to his room. Even though he would not listen to them.

*Andreea sat quietly by the window of her room. Because she was too busy writing in her notepad, she ignored the announcement. After a few moments, she stood up and walked over to her table, then opened up her laptop. After a few moments of sending off emails, she closed up her laptop, got up, and walked out of the door. On her way down the hall, one of the crew members stopped her, and told her to go back to her room. Andreea just looked at him blankly for a few moments before passing by him, still going down the hall*

[John Lee]

John stops at a bench and sits down for a while, then pulls out his laptop and goes to the weather to check it out. When he looks at the web site it seemed like it was getting worst. Soon enough he closes his laptop and puts it back up and heads to the upper deck. To go look around even though there was bad weather happening. It was going to be one crazy night.

[Andreea Raducan]

*Andreea made her way down the hall, but was eventually stopped by another crew member. With no other choice, she made her way back to her room. She walked inside and closed the door behind her, then made her way to the bed and layed down. She looked out of the window and said something to herself. After a few moments, she began to doze off.*
