That Fateful Night
"Iceberg, dead ahead!" were the words screamed by the lookout. The iceberg loomed in front of the massive ship Titanic. The man at the wheel tried to turn the ship, but it was too late. If they would have hit the iceberg head on, Titanic probably wouldn't of sank. But, instead they turned and the side of the ship, the weakest part, was faced towards the iceberg. It just scratched along the side of the ship, but it was enough to pop its rivets. They sealed the watertight compartments, but the iceberg had struck 5 of the compartments, and the Titanic had only 4 watertight ones. It seemed unbelievable, but the Titanic, the ship that was supposed to be "Unsinkable", was sinking.
Most of the people on board had slept through the crash. Some of the kids awoke and went to the deck. They played catch with the pieces of ice from the iceberg.
