All Chapters of THE OTHER SIDE OF HELL: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

On the day of the departure they all dressed up, well prepared and ready  for whatever they were going to face for the sake of survival. Or were they?  "Fucking bastard. You said we won't meet any of this killer trees if we follow the 'yellow road.'" Ten cursed loudly. Refiling his gun with ammunition he fired aimlessly behind him. Yellow road on Ten's term. (The 'safe' path Salvador had marked out.) "Well don't blame me." Salvador breathed heavily. Multitasking between talking and running from a hoard of vines that carved for his flesh. "It isn't my fault that the area around the underground base is surrounded by a coal mine." "Fuck."  Jeff was pulled by his collar by Wei, just in time to avoid a large vine that aimed for his head. "This isn't really what we talked about." Jeff gasped in horror. Of course he didn't expect

And as if reacting to Jeff's curses, a loud thunder lighted the dark skies. Droplets of rain falling from the clouds. Wei, feeling his bonded friend's misery patted him on his back. "We will probably do all that if we survive." "You still think we are going to survive this?" Ten popped a brow. "There is a storm coming, and we are on a un-moving or better called unmovable yatch. Are you kidding me or what? Even Buddha won't be able to save us." "Stop been a jinx." Emma glared at him, but deep down she also felt helpless. 'are they really going to die like this. "We must try. Sailing a yatch can't be that hard." Luna said with a positive vibe. "Even if we can sail the yatch it doesn't change the fact that we are in the middle of nowhere. Judging from the weather am sure the storm will take days to calm down. And then even if we want to strive we have to strive

"No." Sandra trembled visibly. "There are more of them." ________ "This isn't working." Emma yelled, quickly fixing the hole on her side while completely dripping wet and shivering. Luna ignored her, turning to Sandra. "How's Jeff doing?" "Not good." Sandra shook her head, pushing back her wet hair. "He said we might not make it." "I found another hole, over here." Allyssa dived out of the water, taking off her goggles while running her hand down her wet face. "The water is starting to slow down, there shouldn't be much holes left" "That's good." Luna quickly moved to the hole she pointed out. Blocking it off. Within ten minutes they had completely blocked off all the hole, wanting to take a rest when Wei burst into the hatch. His scream drowned in the storm. "What did you say?" Sandra yelled back.

"What about the map. They should be something we can do." Emma said thoughtfully. "There is." Salvador agreed. "It's time we need." "Let's first know what we are dealing with, the we can plan out." Ten stated. "We have gone too far to be scared by a mere sinking island." "So what do we have?" Luna asked, leaning in. Salvador spread the map on the ground, pinning it on the ground with four small stones. "We have a sinking island, a week's deadline, and a hidden ship." "A hidden ship?" "Yes. A 'hidden' ship." Salvador put an emphasis on the word 'hidden' "It's definitely not going to be easy to find it, will it." "Definitely not." Salvdor immediately replied to Allyssa's question. "How much is the difficulty?" Sandra asked. "58%" He answered, then paused thoughtfully. "Plus racing against time I'd say 78%" "And I'd say suicide really doesn't sounds so bad anymore." All head snapped to Luna who had suddenly become dispirited. "Just kidding." "So what exactly do we have to do?

'She had to save them. She had to save them.' Her last thoughts replayed in her mind as she sank into the bottom of the water. 'Jeff! Emma!! They are waiting for her. Waiting for her help.'————————*Cough* *cough* Luna felt her lungs contract as she coughed. Water running down both her mouth and nose."She is awake." A blurred face clouded her vision and then she is pulled against a warm body. "luna?! And pressed against a soft chest. "Luna! Wake up! It's me—Sandra.""Luna!! Luna!!! Please wake up. Please." Sandra cried desperately. "Open your eyes."And she did. She opened her eyes to meet the browns form of her sister. Clutching on yo her body like a dying last straw."Sandra?" She wrinkled her nose at the sharp pain that traveled down her throat as she spoke. The metallic taste of blood lingering on her tongue. And only then did she realized that what she was coughing up was not water, but darkish red blood."Sandra?!" Her voice barely.made it pass a whisper, tears starting to.bui
