Islanders - We have to help her!

Plot

You and your friends decide to take a trip on a ship (he he I made a rhyme!) because one of you won the lottery! So you all take a weeks vacation to cruise the Mediterranean sea. Your all set, food, clothes, booze. This is going to be the best week of your life right? Wrong. On the Mediterranean anything can happen, and sure enough it will be something bad. The weather changes in mere seconds, one minute, you are all on the deck, laughing and having a good time. The next, you are all clinging to the boat for your dear lives, trying not to fall off. After that it all goes blank. You wake up several hours later, on a beach, surrounded by broken bits of boat. You are stranded.

None of you know this, but the island is cursed. It pulls boats in and crashes them on it's shores. Then slowly, the crew members go crazy, and kill each other, like the many crews before you, and even the islands own natives. Are you going to die? Or are you going to do the one thing you know you must do. Escape the island at all costs.

A Bit About The Island

Here on our beautiful island we have many animals, (OK not exactly) the most you have to worry about are boars, monkeys, rabbits, birds and of course, fish... no predators. OK another lie, there are some. Jaguars. But they stay in the deep jungle, don't bug them and they won't bug you! What about plants? Plenty of Plants! Edible plants include; Coconuts, bananas, pineapples, wild tomatoes, wild cucumbers, and various spices. The plants can also be used to make clothes, shelter, resources, fire. Now onto the map (and my wonderful mapping skills)!

Spoiler

A- Castaway Beach - Where all boats crash and islanders make the mistake of setting up camp in the open, where the weather can get them and destroy their shelter. Monkeys like to visit it's shores and steal from islanders.

B- Ancient ruin temple of the Llama people- The only safe place to set up camp, to bad you need to find an ancient gem to get inside.

C- Caves - No go territory, unless you wish to be a jaguars next meal. This is where the jaguars sleep.

D- Airplane crash site - What do you know, boaters aren't the only victims! Scavenge what you can from this old plane crash... well what do ya know, the old AM/FM radio may just work!

E- The light green represents light jungle area, easy to get through and not jaguar infested, wild boars and rabbits and all the meaty animals live here! Also some edible plants grow here!

F- The dark green represents heavy jungle area, harder to get through, and VERY jaguar infested. All animals lurk here, and the fruits are the biggest and juiciest here. Also, spices grown in here!

G- Cliffs, for ceremonial cliff dives and sacrifices. Warning, the cliff is very slippery.

Name Torri Livingston

Gender Female

Age25

Appearance

Spoiler

PersonalityTorri loves a good fight, but would never provoke one with her friends, she is usually the one to break it up! She loves being around friends, and people in general. Which is the only reason she is still sane after having three roommates. She would die if one of her friends said they hate her, her friends are her life. She isn't one to be a leader, but will take command if it's needed. She laughs at any joke, even if it isn't really funny.

History Was a photographer, and loved her job. When she took the week off she gave up a shoot with Paramore. She figured it would be worth it, boy was she wrong. She grew up in a single parent home, her dad left the family when she was young. She is the youngest of three, her two older brothers liked to pick on her. She doesn't talk to one of them anymore.

Gender Female

Appearance

Spoiler

[With better hair]

Personality Shy and sweet, but "hates" when guys hit on her and expect her to flirt back. She doesn't exactly hate it, she just gets scared of rejection and acts as though she does, which makes her a fun target, which ends in a very pissed off Bianca. Bianca loves old fashioned candies, resulting in the much hated nickname of candy cane or sugar cane. She loves to sing and is very playful and laughs a lot if you get on her good side.

History She grew up in a normal, loving family and went on the trip because she needed to get out and do something with her life now that she's out of college.

Personality: Riley is very happy and nice and is always helping people out. He has a bubbly personality and it is hard for him to be serious. He is always optimistic and loves to sing. He has a lot of energy and often hides his deep real feelings with a smile and good attitude. But sometimes he will break down and spill to someone he trusts.

History: He worked at a CD store and sometimes played a few shows with his band as lead singer, but not very many people came. His parents were divorced (which causes him to hide his feelings) He never really had a girlfriend, but wouldn’t mind having one. He is an only child and never had any pets, but he had plenty of good friends. [/b]

Other defiantly up for love!

I will finish this later, Em.

Name: Elizabeth Montague.

Gender: Female.

Age: 22

Appearance:

Spoiler

Personality: Elizabeth seems timid, kind and naive at first but she's not shy or afraid to speak her mind, even if she gets in trouble for it. Fierce and loyal, Liz can't stand to see those she cares about hurt or threatened. She's not timid, but she is kind of blunt and sometimes comes off as cold and uncaring. Surprisingly, she does have a fiery temper, but she'll only lose it when she's been pushed too far. She is a little cowed though, and scared of boys, although she'll be back to her old self soon enough....with a little gentle encouragement.

History: Grew up in a broken home with an abusive father and brother. Her mother died when Liz was young (drugs, can you believe it?) and now Liz is stuck in a world of call girls and gang wars---forced into it by her brother less than a week after their father died, also drugs. While trying to avoid her brother, she saved up enough cash to get the hell outta town. And look where that got her--stuck on an island in the middle of god only knows where.

Other: Up for love. Has many scars, some from the abuse at the hands of her father and brother, others from 'clients' who got rough.

Name Cassie Bartco

Gender Female

Age 22

Appearance

Spoiler

Personality Shy, sweet and often distant, Cassie is known to be a very loyal friend. She could never see anybody hurt, and could never hurt anybody. The only people she feels truly comfortable around are her close friends, and she can even feel distant around them sometimes. She's very creative and quite resourceful. She has been secretly begging for an adventure ever since she can remember, but she never expected this. She can be very independant. Loves animals and nature as well as reading and writing.

History Cassie grew up with her mother, father, older brother and two younger sisters. She had a fairly ordinary life for the most part, and always had a passion for art, music and words.
She has been waitressing for almost her whole life, and is getting rather sick of it. She's been looking for a university since she graduated, and hasn't been able to find one that really appeals to her yet.
Not much interesting here.

Other Cassie keeps journals and scores of notebooks, pens, pencils and sketchpads in her purse. You very rarely find anything that normal people keep in there.
A thing of lipgloss, maybe, but it's usually above, some snacks and her laptop.
She also has a pet cornsnake named Alfred (yes, that's right) and she takes him on all of her long trips due to the rest of her family's snake-phobia.

First day out at sea! The sea air was heavier then city air (who knew?) I smiled at Cassie, who was talking to Danilo and Sam. Elizabeth was off in her own little world, Riley and Bianca where talking as well. I smiled and decided I was not enjoying this as much as I thought I would. Seasick. The constant movement was making me sick. I leaned over the side and barfed again, not liking the look of those clouds, but the chances of them hitting us were next to none. I felt a hand on my back and looked up to see Elizabeth beside me. I smiled before the butterflies churned and I emptied myself again. I had been doing this for hours. But I wasn't going to ruin the fun for everyone.

Suddenly the waves began to pick up, just hitting my face. Then rain began to fall in sheets, drops so large one drop got you soaked to the bones. I gasped, as people began to get uneasy. The boat rocked back and forth, I held onto the railing as we all broke out into panic. My heartbeat became irregular and my breathing erratic. The ship began to rock more and more violently as the water became white with the increasing waves. We all screamed as the boat began to tip, it was all happening so quickly! The boat tipped over, and everything blacked out when I hit the cold frigid waters below.

~

Hours later I awoke, coughing and spitting up water. My skin felt scratchy and sticky. The weather was so humid. I slowly stood and looked at the vast jungle in front of me, then turned to see my friends and a dis mangled ship behind me. This could not be happening!

Sam

I heard...seagulls. I carefully cracked one eyelid open, only to stare into the eye of a watery sun. I quickly closed my eyes and rolled to the side, sand clinging to my salt-encusted skin. My head felt groggy, but slowly I began to register the enviroment around me from behind the saftey of my closed eyelids. The waves were crashing, water lapping at my feet in a steady rythm. My eyebrows furrowed, confused. I slowly peeled my eyelids open again, noticing for the first time my eyes felt like they were full of grit. The sight that greeted me was confusing at first. A mangled wreck of steel and timber was further down the beach, and I couldn't figure out what was happening. Then my mind cleared, and I sat upright. My feet were in the edge of the water's reach, my hands were buried in the sand of an unfamiliar shore. The wreck down the beach was most likely the luxery cruise liner that I was supposed to be on, sipping cold beer and staring into the crystal clear water.

I cast my eyes around, and saw Torri further up the beach with a confused look on her face. I raised my hand, and attempted to get to my feet. Luckily, I was whole, and other than being scratchy and shaky, and unable to unglue my tongue from the roof of my mouth, I felt okay. I stumbled up to Torri, and tried a smile. "I don't think this was on the brochure." I knew the joke was lame, but it was better than sitting down and crying.

Cassie

My eyes opened slightly, but all I could see was black. My whole body felt numb and my brain didn't seem to be functioning properly. I was too confused to feel scared, and my thoughts were running wild. I couldn't grip a single one of them long enough to make any sense out of it.

The pain started crawling in then from every corner of my body. My left arm was burning, then throbbing. It felt like there was a deadweight on my chest and I suddenly realized how hard breathing had been. The pain in my ribcage came next. And then the pain in my right ankle.

It was all slow at first, withstandable; but it grew. Pretty soon I felt like my whole body was going to explode, and I was almost wishing that it would.

I was burried in something heavy, and there was something running through the top of my left arm. I could feel blood, but I couldn't see it. I couldn't see anything.

It would have made sense to start screaming then, but I felt choked. My body was quivering in agony, and no matter how hard I tried I couldn't manage more than a desperate groan. I tried again, another groan rather than a scream, but it was louder than before.

Emmy said I could join!

Connor

I woke up to a wail of pain. I tried to keep my eyes from shutting again. My first instinct was to check if everyone was alright, my eyes immediately went to Cassie. She looked like she didn't have enough strength in her body to move at all. I licked the blood off my lips. Calmly the waves crashed against the shore line, drenching my face and burning my eyes

I lifted my arms up and pulled myself up with a rock. Sitting upright, I looked at Cassie again. I had to get there quick. With every single ounce of energy left in my body, I got up, and slowly walked over to her. Her eyes widened when I hovered over her.

"Are you okay?" I asked, I gave her my hand and she lifted herself up, only to fall right back down again. I sat next to her, ignoring the pain that was spreading through my body. I ripped some of my t-shirt of and used it as a bandage for the huge cut on her ankle.

She just managed to sit up, and she stared at me for a while.

"Are the others all right? Where's Lizzie?" She said in between breaths. I wasn't sure what to say, my vision was too blurred to see anyone else. We both heard footsteps, it was Sam.

Torri

I ran over to where Conner had pulled Cassie from the boat wreck. She was pretty mangled up. I gasped and ran over.
"Cassie! Cassie! Are you alright?" I panicked, flinching when she groaned in pain. She was alive... that was all that mattered. We would need to make some improvised casts. But we were all alive, that was all that mattered. I looked around the beach as the others began to awake. I could swear there was other broken ships, and that would mean... there were others! Others who may have a way off this island. I looked to the others.
"Anyone know how to make improvised casts? I'm a photographer not a doctor." I asked. I looked back to Cassie, what was in her arm? I shifted over to that side of her and swalloed back what was flowing upstream. In her arm, was a bloody hole. In in that hole was a bloody metal pole. It took me a second to collect myself, and screamed.
