A month ago, if you had told me I would be on a crashing plane headed into the ocean, I would have believed you were insane. But here I was in that very circumstance, just sitting there thinking about how I got into this, so let me explain how I got here.

One month ago, I awoke to a fairly average Monday morning. I sat up groggily, my alarm clock driving holes in my skull and almost slamming it off my table, but I managed to restrain myself. I cleaned my teeth and got ready, as is my regular routine, but then I received a text from my brother Silas, who said he was heading to Disney in Florida for a vacation and wanted me to come.

I was always the anti-social brother, and despite being too terrified to attend when I was younger, I accepted. However, I have teleophobia, which means I am afraid of flying, but it was my brother. How could I say no?

So I agreed oh, how I should have realized this would end up being one of the worst mistakes I ever made in my life.

After packing my belongings, I arrived at the airport a week later. And as a writer, I brought my phone, books, laptop, and clothing.

I met with my brother, said hello, and we hugged. "You look worse for wear, Liam!" Silas smiled.

We headed into the building and went into security That part was easy after all and that wasn’t the part I was scared of. We then got out of security and sat down, my brother got on his phone and played games while waiting to board the plane, I was shaking like a leaf, ready to fall any second.

We got on the plane and I walked in, feeling the walls close around me, I felt sick to my stomach.
My brother looked at me and said, "Bro don’t look so sad you’re going to Disneyland for Christ sake and car crashes happen way more than plane crashes." I just look at him with annoyance. I love my brother, but he can be so annoying.

We both sat down, and to my horror, I got the window seat, though because of my shyness, I did not complain.
The pilot started talking, but I was too scared to pay attention. Instead, I found comfort in closing my eyes reaching down putting my seat belt on so tight I could hardly breathe.

The plane started moving, we are in the sky. It has been a couple of hours, even though it felt like a lifetime. I had plenty to do, like trying not to throw up on my brother or cry.

The speakers in the plane buzzed to life, and the pilot spoke, “Ok folks, we’re about to have some turbulence. Please just stay calm and I will try and keep us in the air!”

Then it happened. At first, it was a slight shudder, like the plane itself was vibrating.
I put my hand on the wall of my seat; it felt warm then hot I burned my hand.

Then we heard an explosion the left-wing engine was on fire. the pilot started again “Everyone needs to stay calm I’m going to try and land on the water God save us all!”

I was scared and frozen All I could do was cry everything was quiet I was ignoring everything
I was shaking and I felt sick, like I was going to die.

The motion of the plane started going downward but it was not the pilot doing it, We were crashing and I knew it I hugged my brother and waited for impact but it never came and with a flash of red, hot white light, I felt numb.

"Hello, America I’m Jessica Mary thank you for watching channel 5 news.
Well folks, we have some bad news as a plane was found crashing near the coast of Florida, Witnesses say one of the wings caught a blaze and the plane was crashing into the ocean and that the plane disappeared before it hit the ground, a video of the incident was submitted to our news station not long after, we can not disclose who it was who sent the video, but we can say that what your about to see is shocking!" The news woman points to a screen behind her while playing the video.

The video shows a plane on fire falling out of the sky and right before it hits the ground, a flash of purple and white light enveloped the plane and it was gone.

"This is a mystery, folks the likes we haven't seen sense the Malaysia Airlines 370 incident nine years ago, email us at channel five news for any additional info about this event that you can give on the situation."

I could not see properly and I felt like my entire body was in a washing machine.
I looked around for my brother and when I turned, I saw nothing .

The plane crashed, everything was on fire, and dead bodies were everywhere I tried to get out of the wreckage. It was hard to move I hurt so much I could not stand as I crawled out I saw that my leg was broken but I’m not dead, luckily.

"First I need to find Silas" I look around." I would look around seeing the crash around, I see that I am practically up side down hanging from the seat belt, and from the hole in the side of the plane I could see deep brush of trees. "I’m in a forest; I need to calm down," I think to myself.

"Fuck, first I agreed to this stupid trip and now my brother is dead." I just sit and cry.

I try to unclip my seat belt I succeed, I fall and flip landing on my leg which hurt like a bitch because this how I descovered that it was broken.

Sometime later, I must have decided to go to sleep because I woke up next to the wreckage.
The fire had been extinguished so I’m not in danger of burning.
I decided to walk I don’t know where, just somewhere; I need to think.

I wipe tears from my eyes, then I see a light in the tree line, "Is that a cottage?"

I take a closer look and see something in the window. I start to crawl closer and closer until I reach the front door.

I stand, using the door handle to hold my weight, groaning in pain. I knock on the door as I say, "Hello, sorry but there has been an accident We need medical attention!" choking back a sob.

I hear a gasp and what sounds like horse steps, like clopping on wood?
the door opens and what I see is something from a fever dream I fall on my ass as I look up and see a small yellow horse with pink hair looking terrified with big eyes right at me.
