Airplane Ride This is going to be about the first nerve racking time I rode a plane. It was 3:00 A.M. and I was getting up to go to the the airport. I wasn’t to thrilled that I was getting there that early but, it was worth it. We left for the airport and we first had to go to this parking lot where we left our car while we were on vacation.

Throughout your life, you take a lot of things for granted. You assume everything is normal, that everything will always be the same, and most importantly, you don’t think you’ll ever have to survive by yourself. I know I didn’t. It’s been exactly 7 months, and 16 days since the expulsion happened. First of all, I will clarify that it doesn’t really matter who I am.

In this episode of Mythbusters, Adam and Jemie were more than willing to test their new myth that the way that we actually board the plane are the most inefficient way to do it. Moreover, it also takes the longest boarding time. Therefore, they planned to test this out using the real size airplane with 173 seats that are an actual normal size plane used in the commercial.

The pressure on my ears built up as we plummeted down. I blacked out. The next thing I saw was horrifying. People were motionless, blood trickling down their faces. A fire burned the remaining part of the plane. The pain piercing my leg was nothing compared to the confusion and panic building up inside me. I could feel the blood struggling to pulse through my veins. Dripping with sweat, I pulled my head up only to see that piece of glass was wedged into my tan leg. I tried looking around for somebody

Fentress (POV) “No don’t ever say that please Hannah” I say as I grab her hands. She pushes away from me but I pull her closer. She starts crying and fighting me. I keep pulling her close and then she wraps her hands around me and embraces me. I hold her in my arms not knowing what to do. She cries for about five minutes then we just start talking about things. She talks to me about how she didn’t like killing people in Korea but she tried. The boy she killed that was Tomas’s brother was only 15
