《Don't Put All Of Your Short Stories In One Basket》Lost Yet Again 2
Advertisement
This all felt legitimate. One of my concerns while taking this nap was that I would dream of unwanted stuff and that the whole journey would become unbearable. Yet, it had to be done cause there’s no way I’d pass my time waiting till we land.
This is all too real. I didn’t know till now what that absurd dream I just had this morning meant and honestly I wasn’t expecting to be a prophet. Just the idea that something that just occurred, I had dreamt about, is creepy. And why exactly a tornado? The flight could’ve been stopped by literally anything else, what are the odds of this happening?
I woke up finding myself in the shore of what seemed an island. My first reaction was that I was still dreaming, but that soon vanished cause I found it to be too true to be fake.
Cherry on top, it was only the three of us: me, Lucas and Anna. I have no idea whatsoever where the rest got dispersed or if they even are alive at all, since the airplane is missing as well.
Daniel quickly went and tried waking up Lucas and Anna, to see if they were in good condition. To his surprise, neither of them had any scratches either.
“What is going on?” cried Lucas. “The last thing I remember is that tornado and me closing my eyes. And now you waking me up. Where even are we?”
“Dan, where’s the rest?” said Anna.
“I don’t know. I don’t know anything.” replied Dan. “I just woke up, same as you two. I’m lost as well.
Actually, I was counting on you guys to tell me what happened while I was asleep.”
“Nothing much, we were watching a movie when we suddenly got notified that a tornado was approaching and that we had to stay calm. Then I immediately woke you and the rest is history.” responded Lucas.

“That’s peculiar.” said Dan.
“We have to find out if there’s anyone else in here.” intervened Anna and headed towards the forest.
Daniel quickly grabbed her and started explaining that that would be the dumbest thing to do right now since they didn’t know what they were getting themselves into.
“Okay, listen up.” said Daniel. “The number one thing we have to do right now is to try and survive till a ship comes this way and finds us.
But here’s the thing. Ships vary from how near they get to an island, they can watch from afar or actually get closer. And here’s the tricky part, if they stay afar there’s no way for them to spot us so we need something to signal them. On top of that we need something to stay warm during the nights, so building a fire is the most ideal thing to do.”
“You sure know a lot about this.” interfered Lucas.
“Yeah, I got lost once when I was a kid.” responded Daniel in all seriousness.
Anna and Lucas were staring at him.
“It’s a joke you dummies, it’s just common sense.” Dan broke up the silence. “Anyways, Anna might be right, there may be other passengers here. However, we can’t find that out yet since we are harmless. Let’s provide the essentials we need to survive first then we can look onto further exploring.”
Things were actually going smooth. They started getting stuff all around the place, making sure the didn’t overstep the boundaries. It wasn’t risky at all in their heads and they began to get a like at it.
Anna was setting a campfire with the branches Lucas provided. She had apparently watched this guide somewhere and was replicating it. Me and Lucas on the other hand were just gathering stuff all around. Food, fruits, wood and whatnot.

“But how competent is Anna, tho?” said Dan.
“Just ask her out already, jeez.” replied Lucas.
“Yeah, right. Whilst we are in the middle of nowhere and with perhaps no chance of getting back.” responded Dan.
“Well, yes!? Isn’t that the best case scenario?” said Lucas. “And what do you mean by ‘no chance of getting back’? I don’t really wanna be stuck in here.”
“Relax, I was just making it more dramatic.” continued Dan. “But I really think that I should make a move on her now that we are all alone.”
“That sounded creepy mister perv.”
“Shut up and proceed on your gathering.”
They both had giggled and continued looking for goods.
Evening soon arrived and they were all grouped around the campfire eating what looked like dinner, but sadly just consisted on some fruits and berries. It was starting to get cold but they wrapped themselves in some giant leafs they found and to their content they were pretty cozy. Everything seemed to be going well.
“What a crazy day this was.” said Lucas. “One way or another we got our summer camp.”
They all laughed and the mood was being set.
“Considering how well we managed our first day in here, “ continued Anna. “I’m pretty positive we are gonna make it out.”
They both nodded.
“Guys.” said Dan. “Since we’ll be here for a while or God knows how much, I was thinking that we should get to know each other better.
So I’ll start first.”
They all agreed to that.
“Remember before when I said I had been in a similar situation? Well, I wasn’t lying. When I was younger I actually got lost in an island.”
