Seventy On Survivors. (And one dog.)
Prologue


There were three hundred and twenty four passengers on the plane. And one dog. There were seventy four cups of tea, one hundred and forty cups of coffee and one hundred and ten plastic glasses of orange juice. There was a man in a wheelchair, his name was John and he smiled at her and answered her questions politely. And then there was a pretty pregnant lady who looked at her cautiously before she let her touch her baby bump. It was really firm and warm and it moved beneath her fingertips making her gasp and smile at her.

She wrote this all down as she moved through the plane, smiling and talking to strangers. Her parents, if they had have been awake, would not have approved of her bothering people. But they weren’t awake and what they didn’t know wouldn’t hurt them. Besides she was a fearless explorer and these people weren’t strangers, just friends she hadn’t met yet. That’s what she told Sonya, the air hostess who asked her where her parents where as she explored the middle section. Sonya told her to go back to her seat and she’d bring her over a colouring book. She wondered if Sonya thought she was a child.

She smiled goofily at a man, when he told her to scram and called her goldilocks. He had a strange accent and she was about to ask him a question when it happened. The plane dipped; scaring her, making her eyes widen and her stomach leap into her throat. Warm arms grabbed her, pulling her into a seat and she scrambled to pull the seatbelt on as the plane began to go down. She saw the looks on their faces, she heard them scream, she heard them fall and then there was nothing.

There were seventy one survivors. And one dog.

They have a banner and a crappy icon. THATS HOW MUCH I LOVE THEM.

Less drama, more questions all the damn time. Like just when Sawyer is hitting on Kate, BAM HI SAWYER I HAVE A QUESTION, holding a gun at someone QUESTION TIME, stuck in the hatch QUESTION TIME. They have a bet on how long it'll take before he kills her. He doesn't, he tucks her in at bed at night when no one is looking because he is a supersecretsap. Plus it makes him look good with the ladies and gets him extra food so yanno.
