The plane was going down. Everything Annelise feared was coming true. She had read about Gotsby Island, and she even knew when they were flying over. When they had passed it, she exhaled a breath she didn't realize she was holding. However, within the next few seconds, everything began to go wrong. The plane began to shake, and began hurtling towards the ocean...[/font][/size]
Next thing she knew, she was on the shore of where she knew was Gotsby. She was shaking in fear, but also relief of the fact that she had survived. But the moment she began to feel lucky, she realized... where was everyone else that she had originally gotten onto the plane with? James, her ex-boyfriend and best friend; Josh, her best friend; or her other close friends, Olivia, Nate, Cameron, Katie? This had been the trip they had been looking forward to since forever. They were going across the world to Australia. Now she was so scared she would never see any of them again.
However, as she pulled herself onto her shaky legs, she immediately noticed Josh by the forest's edge. She ran over to him, the hot sun beating down on her. She supposed that she was lucky that it was a tropical island, for winter would have killed her fast. When she reached him, she hugged him tightly, afraid to let go in fear that he would disappear as an illusion. But when she broke apart, she noticed that those blue eyes were still there. Annelise almost smiled, but then remembered everyone else. However, she soon noticed that his eyes had averted from her to behind her. She turned to discover James there, with Mary right behind. She had almost forgotten that Mary had taken the opportunity to invite herself to go just because she could afford to. Ignoring Mary, Annelise hugged James as well, and kissed him on the cheek. Her two most important friends were safe, but she knew that was nowhere close to them being okay...
Gotsby Island was famous, and famous for ships randomly sinking around it, planes crashing, and all the like. The passengers of all these poor vehicles were never heard of again. Governments refused to go onto the island, primarily due to the extremely dangerous tribes that lived there, and they didn't care who died as long as modern life was kept away. When planes and boats went down near Gatsby island, no one was ever rescued... no one ever tried. As much as governments liked to pretend this didn't happen, that all crashes were seen as high priority, all the people on the island knew the truth...
Eventually, Annelise found all her friends, although some other passengers on that plane hadn't been so lucky. They managed to hide from the feuding tribes on the island for months, and through those months, more planes and boats crashed, with more survivors invading the islands. The more people came, the more people disappeared as well. As everyone became a lot more comfortable, though, some tribe members began to socialize with survivors, giving them a sense of security, allowing them to worry about their social lives, and trying to just live their lives. These English-speaking tribes, however, occasionally attacked without warning, always causing the survivors to rebuild all over again...
So will you be one to survive? Or will you be taken down by the tribe members... or are you a tribe member? Let your adventure unravel.
