Felix took off his leather jacket and swung it over his shoulder, instantly feeling better in the heat, "So, what are we looking for?"

"Anything that will help us. Stored food, chairs, blankets, rations, literally anything that's going to be helpful. It may take more than one trip. WE can get all of the mattresses that survived later," I say, as we approach the ship. I climb through the hole in the side. It is darker inside, and the shade feels good. I immediately spot food, and decide that this must be the kitchen part of the ship. It takes three trips, but we manage to get all the food in a pile outside to take back to the group.

"That was exhausting." Felix panted, but then smiled, "But it was still fun."

"Yeah," I say and smile at him, and we drag all of our findings back to the group. They are still deciding what to do about the whole shelter situation.

Felix stretched and shot a smile at Jaise, "We'll be out of here in no time!"

Ada had passed out again but just woke up. "What's going on?"

Vallery looked at all of them like they were crazy. "Our cruise ship just crashed, we're all stranded on an island and have been for god knows how long, and everyone else on the ship is probably dead! Why do you all seem so calm?!"

“I’m not calm. I just woke up.”

"Guys! Guys!" I shout, clapping my hands. Everyone looked over. "Here is what we have rescued from the ship," I say, pointing at the pile. We had been able to salvage boxed dinners, a couple gallons of waters, batteries, a few flashlights, three water soaked blankets, a lighter, four buckets, about 100 feet of string, and two dozen Sharpies.
"We are getting the mattresses later, but there were only a few of them that survived from what Felix and I could make out," I told them. They looked sort of let down, and I realized we didn't have a lot.
"It's okay, guys. We'll make it out of this," I said, trying to cheer them up. The worst thing you need is a bunch of dejected teenagers/adults trying to survive on an island. Then nothing gets done. Why was this so hard?

Vallery looked at the supplies. "Did you find any bodies?" She asked. "If the ship crashed, there would be bodies, and you wouldn't be so happy. None of this makes sense. Can't any of you see that?"

Robin came to slowly, slumped against a tree. He could hear people talking from some distance, but he couldn't distinguish what they were saying. The side of his head felt wet, so he touched it. When he drew his hand away, his palm was red. "H-hello? Is anyone there?" He looked around frantically, trying to figure out where he was.

Ada walked to a boy who had just woken up. “Hey, calm down,” she said. “Are you bleeding? I’m Ada. What’s your name?”

"Um, I'm Robin. Where are we? I-I think my head is bleeding…" He looked down at his bloody hand, heart pounding.

“We should probably get that checked out. And our ship crashed,” she said, offering to help him up.

Robin nodded and stood up, swaying a bit on his feet. He put one hand against the tree for support.

“Here,” she said, wrapping an arm around him for support. “Don’t want you falling on our way to the group.”

"There's more? Um, s-survivors, I mean." Robin walked slowly beside Ada, occasionally stumbling over his feet.

“Yeah, maybe ten? As far as we can tell, we’re the only ones though. Two of them just got back from scavenging the ship, maybe they’ll have bandaids.”

"Okay…" Robin wasn't sure whether band-aids would really be enough. He could have a concussion for all he knew. But he was fairly sure that if he did, it wasn't major. He had a terrible headache though.

Once they managed to get to the mini-camp, she helped him sit down and left to find bandages.

Robin sat quietly as he waited, keeping one hand on his head to try and stop the bleeding.
