First Day on the Island
      We have been away at school for months.  Still wearing our gray shirts and our school sweaters.  We were coming home when our plane was attacked.  Boom!!  The lights went out and we started to fall faster and faster.  Then we hit the ground hard.  When I awoke few people were still on what was left of the plane.  I climbed out of the wreckage and began to walk.  I could hear the waves hit the sandy beaches from were I was.  I headed away from the sound of the water into the trees.  I walked for a while and then changed direction and headed towards my right.  After a while I began to get hungry. I found a bush with yellow fruit on it. I began to eat savagely.  When I was done I had remnants of yellow fruit all over my face.  I then continued walking and found a lagoon.  I lowered my self down the last feet of rock and walked up to the edge of the water.   I felt the water and it was hot, like bath water.  I heard a loud noise and I headed toward it.  A boy was blowing a shell. He said he was calling a meeting.  I thought it was a good idea.  Many other kids showed up.  A lot of them were very puzzled and wanted to go home.  I�m afraid that we won�t get home either.
