Hazel noticed a person waving their arms.
"Never mind, you can take care of it," SHe muttered, tossing the people the inhaler. She jumped off the raft.
"I hate swimming!" SHe yelled out as she swam towards the person. HE couldn't have been much older than her, probably by a year or two. She lifted my up by the arms, she was quite strong for her size and age. Hazel paddled back to the raft and lifted the man up. She jumped onto it and looked down at the girl coughing.
Rosemarie looked up weakly as an unfamiliar face loomed over her. SHe was handed an inhaler, which she quickly took.. Her asthma dialed down and she could sit up and talk now.
"Thank you," She whispered.

Aston fell onto the yellow life raft and began coughing. Once he had cleared his lungs, he looked up at the girl who had swam out to get him. "Thank you." He whispered, shaking water off of himself. He cleared his throat and sighed. "Thank you." He repeated.

Where's my name?!
He pushes his hand deeper, the keyring, the room keys, and the torch still there, but no card. He checks the other pocket, nothing in it. He began to worry a little, if people didn't know his name what would they call him? He thinks back to school, the names he was called, he couldn't handle that again. Keith's smile disappears a little as he sits silently, watching everyone.

Lago sees that the man in front of him is fidgeting, and the smile he once had a second ago disappeared as he frantically searched into his pockets. "What could he be looking for?", Lago asked himself as he kept watching. He started feeling strange feelings the longer he watched the guy in front of him. The longer he watched, the more he seemed to be a little attracted to the guy. "Shit!", he mentally cursed himself. "What is going on?", he asked himself. "Why am I feeling this way?" Lago then was compelled to crawl over to him and ask if he was alright. He didn't know how he was going to help the guy, but he looked like he needed help so why not. "Hey, I'm Lago. Are you alright.. uh, I'm sorry I didn't catch your name."

Hazel shrugged.
"Welcome," She muttered. She moved her soaking hair out of her face so she could see.
Hazel starred at the ocean in silence.
"I hate this world, I really do,"
Rosemarie took a deep, long slow breath.
"Thank you," She coughed some more.
THe girl shrugged.
"Yeah, your welcome I guess," SHe watched as the other raft slowly sunk. Rosemarie sat in silence as she laid down and closed her eyes. She soon drifted off to sleep.

I've lost my name.
He points at it again and looks around to the others. Keith slaps the side of the raft to get everyone's attention, holding the keyring up and shakes it, hoping someone may have it or remember his name. He was panicking, he tried to calm down but he couldn't, he had lost his name.
Please someone remember.
Lago looked at the guy funny, "Why isn't he talking?" Lago asked himself as he watched his strange behavior. "The guy is probably mute," he thought. "Are you mute?" Lago asked him. After he shook his head yes, it began to make sense. "Poor guy," he thought. This guy was in luck though. One of Lago's cousins is mute, and he got interested in learning sign language when they were both ten. He mastered the language by the time he was eleven, and his cousin and Lago have been very close ever since. "I can try and help you, I know sign language. Now what do you need help with?" Lago asked him out loud as well as doing sign language with his hands.

"You don't speak, do you? What is it you're trying to say." His eyebrows raised a bit as he thought of an idea.
"Here, nod for me to stop...A, B, C, D..." He recited the alphabet, watching for him to nod. He started over and repeated it again after each nod, slowly spelling out the message.

Rosemarie could feel her nose stinging, and opened her eyes.
"OW!" SHe held onto her nose.
She felt her new diamond piercing stinging.
"Remember, don't go into water, or this might get infected" THe woman loomed over her and pierced her nose.
"CRAP!" She yelled out.
Hazel laid down on the wet bottom of the raft.
"Agh, I hate this raft," She muttered, while the woman next to her complained about her nose. She looked up.
"What the hell is it? I'd like to go to sleep, thank you very much," Hazel complained. She looked at the girl's nose.
"Let me guess, you just got your piercing, I remember going in a pool after I got these," Hazel pointed to her three jewel piercings, an emerald, ruby and a fake diamond.

K-E-I-T-H
He puts his head back and closes his eyes. He had had enough, he was going to sleep no matter what, he needed to relax and think. Thinking, he needed to think.
Roxi looked around. Someone was yelling about her nose, another was panicking...
Who knew a family vacation could come to this?
She thought, cradling herself.
Roxi was eyeing the shark, as she remembered about long ago, when her Mom got her that fishing book...They could feast on that shark, only if....
"Anyone have a knife, or a kind of weapon?"
She asked.

Rosemarie held up one hand.
"I do," She fished around in her pocket, careful so she wouldn't cut herself again. She pulled it out.
"Will you be able to use this?" She asked, while Hazel examined Rosemarie's nose.
Hazel sighed.
She gently undid the piercing and looked at the small hole.
"it's infected. We'll have to put the diamond back in so it doesn't close up like this," Hazel muttered. She turned to the man who was a medic.
"Do you have any thing we can disinfect her nose with?"

Roxi shrugged,
"Its good enough."
As she grabbed it, and focused on the water. She saw the fin of the shark, and whispered,
"Time for nice shark meat.."
Right before she jumped back in.

Aston panicked when the girl with the headphones jumped over-board. He went over to the edge of the raft and panicked when he couldn't see her.
"Um... guys?" He called to the others. He looked all the way around the raft and still didn't see her. He reached into his back-pack, grabbed his pocket-knife, opened it up, and dove in after her.

Roxi resurfaced, just in time to notice someone jump in after her. She sighed,
"Relax, I'm just making it so we won't starve."
She looked around, spying for a shadow of some sort, or at least some evidence of the shark...

Aston sighed and nodded, looking at the girl. Behind her, a triangle shaped fin was coming at her.
"Here comes food." He said, pointing to the fin. He held up his pocket knife and his fist, ready to fight that shark.

"Now we can just hope food doesn't make us food,"
Roxi sighed, whirling around to see the shark. She held up the knife the girl had given her, and took the first hit. The shark tried to snap at her, right before she dove out of the way, and stabbed it in the eye. The water started to turn red, and Roxi couldn't express how thankful she was that that blood wasn't hers.

Aston stabbed the shark in the head, but was surprised when his knife got stuck in his head. He struggled as the shark whipped around to bite him. Aston freed his knife, whipped back his arm, and stabbed the shark one last time in the head. The sharks movements began getting even more violent as it tried to bite Aston.

Roxi went and took a risky move, by stabbing the sharks jaw. She sighed silently to herself, as she barely missed a strong snap at her hand. Soon, somehow she had gotten herself on top of the shark, almost as if she was riding it. While she tried to ride the shark, she constantly stabbed it in the back.

Aston saw the girl with headphones stabbing the shark in the back, sitting on it as if she was riding it. Aston took this opportunity and stabbed the shark in the nose, nearly getting bit in the leg. With the combined force of both of them, the shark eventually gave up, and stopped fidgeting around.

Roxi, seeing it as if they dragged it onto the life raft it would die off, finally resurfaced, gasping for breath as she did. She grabbed the shark by its tail, and looked at the boy as if a signal to help her get it onto the raft.

Aston saw the girl resurface and grab the sharks tail. He nodded at her and grabbed the sharks nose. He began swimming toward the raft, towing the shark.

Roxi swam towards the life raft, dragging along the shark, with the help of the person whom's name she didn't know. Once they reached it, she was hoping someone would help them bring it on...
