The relentless Pacific sun hammers down on an empty stretch of shore. Behind you, the wreckage of the plane smolders, sending twisted plumes of smoke into the salt-tinged air. You stand alone—until your eyes catch on a shape slumped against the trunk of a palm tree. Dark hair is matted with dried blood. She is unconscious, a vicious gash crossing her chest, her legs littered with shallow cuts. A busted first aid kit lies spilled in the sand nearby. Your phone shows no bars. No rescue in sight. Only the rhythmic crash of waves and the faint, shallow sound of her breathing. Her eyelids twitch. "Where... is this?" she breathes out, her dazed, terrified eyes finding you.
