An Ancient Awakening

"Everyone wake up! It's land!" A member of the ship had shouted. Having spent most of his time on the boat drunk, Nikolai had awoken to a throbbing headache on the floor of the starboard naked. He narrowed his eyes slightly putting his hand over his eyes that beamed down at him. He glanced down at his empty bottle of vodkah and tossed it up towards the sun as if it would turn it off. "Damn this sunlight shit." He grunted.
As the sound of the bottle crashing somewhere on the boat became heard he heard a yelp of surprise not too far away. He began to cackle at the amusement of having hit someone. Why not?
"Hey dirtbag put on some clothes!" Somebody from the smaller forming crowd had shouted.
Nikolai immediately got to his feet, and curled his lips back. "Now you think you could step up to I?" He shouted back at the crowd before waving his hand and walking away carelessly. Not too far away he noticed the island they intended to stop at he leaned over the realing staring at the water lapping up at the side of the boat.
"We have kids on the boat put on clothes." A man stepped up to Nikolai. As he put his hand on his shoulder, the Russian adolescent immediately whipped around and thrust his fist across his face.
"That's it." The captain said walking over to the young man. "You're about to get a VIP ticket over this boat."
Nikolai parted his lips and began to laugh. "Ah throw me off thi' God damn unholy boat piece of shit 'traption." He grunted and smirked over at the ladies winking though they only turned their heads in disgust.

Samee glared over at the Russian teen and rolled her eyes. "Gilipollas." She grumbled under her breath and turned away, walking over to the other end of the boat to lean against the rail and look out at the water. This country was full of people who didn't understand how lucky they were to have their freedom and equality. She despised the people that abused this power and were too ignorant to enjoy what they had, and be respectful of it.

Losing his patience, Nikolai began to walk away from the forming group of men glaring him down. "Give a man some space uh?" He grunted but as he tried making his way past the group they had all instantaneously grabbed hold of him, and pushed him over to the realing. As he hit the water he swam back up and wiped at his face as he waded in the water. "You are all pussies, ah you fucking shit eating fuckers!" He snapped and began to splash around some water as he threw his tantrum. As his head went under he came back up and gasped for air. "Ah shit." He sneered as he watched the boat make it's way farther out. " дайте мне перерыв !" He had never been the greatest swimmer.

Samee couldn't help but smirk to herself as she watched him struggle out in the water, turning her head to the side she gave him a small wave as they steered out farther away. He deserved it. Sighing she closed her eyes and rested her head on her arms, it would be a rush for land as soon as they docked but she knew that trying to get off first wouldn't make a difference. They were all going to the same lonely island.

"сука!" Nikolai snapped at the female who had waved to him and began to swim after island having struggled to keep his head up. He'd certainly remember her face. He panted heavily and attempted to mimic the swimmers he had often seen in the Olympics. He found it a tad bit more easier but he wasn't sure how long exactly he would be able to sustain the same pace, and not drown. Feeling as if an hour had passed he had finally washed up on shore on his stomach gasping for air. Enraged he closed his fists and rested in the sand. So much for this new land prospering. How they would be able to keep fifty people under control especially with himself. He got to his feet and put his hands on his knees still trying to catch his breath. "думал, что вы могли бы избавиться от меня! дурачье!" He scoffed.

Samee found herself herself on her feet in the sand within the hour it had taken him to swim. Unaware of the fact he even survived she looked around curiously, the place reminded her of home in a way. Only more beautiful. Scratching her head she let her gaze settle to an open area where she dragged her backpack to sit and wait for directions.

Nikolai ventured away from the formed group deciding he would allow them to do their own thing. After all he was an engineer and knew the basics of survival having lived in a mostly a third world country a majority of his life. Immediately he began to rummage through the tropical forest in search for supplies.

Samee looked around and noticed people seemed to be off on their own. Getting up she made her way over to a shady tree, far enough away from the water to know even with high tide she would be safe. Slowly she began to strip the tree of it's bark in into thick bendable pieces. Taking her time she started to tie the pieces that she tore down together.

Nikolai began to climb the tree and slowly wrapped his legs firmly around the tree as he swung himself to grab hold of a coconut. Noticing the female from maybe an hour or two ago he grabbed the smallest coconut and tossed it at her head before collecting the rest.

Samee winced and glared at him, picking up the coconut and whipping it right back at his stomach. Shaking her head she went back to tying the strands together. Soon enough she had a fairly large sheet of woven bark, to which she attatched large leaves to use as a roof between two low set trees.

Nikolai fell off the tree as the coconut hit his stomach and he got his feet. He rubbed his stomach and shook his head before starting to work on his own shelter. Fixing his gaze on the sky it was easy to tell that a storm had been approaching. He shot a look over at the girl and crossed his arms eyeing her. What did she know about foundation and structure anyhow?

Hunter departed the boat with his sister, not caring what the others decided to do. Having been in the military, he knew exactly what to do in these situations. He ventured far off down the shore, leaving the boat only within squinting eyesight. Scouting the forest he was able to collect large leaves, broken logs, and bark strips that would help build a shelter.

Ruby followed her brother easily, trusting him to lead them somewhere safe. In her hands she carried a backpack filled with water bottles and food she had taken from the ship, figuring her and Hunter would save them for desperate times. While he went off to find supplies, she began to move rocks and sand around up closer to the forest than the shore, away from the water where they would make camp until a more permanent shelter was made.

Samee ignored his gaze, she had plenty of practice ignoring her brothers so a stranger would be easy. Climbing up the tree she took one end of the sheet and began to tie it in a knot around it's trunk. Climbing down she did the same on the other side to the other tree so her roof was propelled over the ground.

Nikolai smirked over at her now amused before turning his gaze away and building his own shelter. As the sun began to set he had managed at least a canopy while the first few droplets from the forming clouds above their heads. He scowled at the sand. It would be uncomfortable to sleep on.

Hunter returned and began to weave the leaves between the bark strips and tying the up between a few trees to build a roof over a small area where they could sleep. He then leaned a few logs up against the back, blocking the entrance from anything in the forest. As he worked, Ruby continued to clear the floor until only the soft grass and a few patches of sand remained.

Samee dug a small hole enough for her hip to fit in, using the sand she pulled up as a pillow. Doing this made falling asleep much easier and comfortable.

Struggling to find comfort throughout the night Nikolai made his way out from his canopy and began to sharpen up a spear and make his way to the waters edge to begin collecting fish. Under the moon light it was somewhat easier. Besides he knew when a storm came fish tended to turn over.

Samee slept soundly in the sand, holding her backpack in her arms firmly. This would be a piece of cake for her.

After he had collected eough fish he had set half his ration in front of the girls canopy and walked off to stock his own coconuts and fish and shut his eyes laying in the sand. Hopefully he had fatigued himself enough to fall asleep. About a few minutes later he had finally allowed the darkness to wash over him.

Samee woke up early in the morning and began to run lines up and down the shore to start her day and wake her body up.

Nikolai crawled out from the canopy a few hours later and wiped his eyes tiredly before beginning to build a water contraption to hydrate himself again.

Samee stopped running after another half an hour and wiped the sweat from her head as she tossed her arms up onto her head to breathe. Returning back to her little roof she shuffled through her backpack to look for a clean shirt.

Nikolai stabbed the little contraption into a tree and began to drink thirstily. He looked over at Samee and slowly shut his eyes before opening his mouth. "You."

Samee shot a look at him, maybe if she pretended not to speak english? "Si?" She responded and continued to search for a shirt.

Nikolai gave her a blank expression before shaking his head. "Agua." He said not knowing much other Spanish besides that. Besides maybe if he was nice she'd teach him something if he needed it. Turning his back to her he began to gather dry wood and grass.
