It all happened in the blink of the eye. She was sitting in one of the bathrooms of flight 815 drawing and minding her own business when turbulence hit. She remembered the plane flying down faster than any roller coaster. She was ejected from the bathroom....
A 17 year old girl was lying face down in the sand near a tree that had cast it's shade over the petite body. On the girl's back was a red backpack. She was wearing black Tripp pants, a black t-shirt with characters from Invader zim on it, Covering her T-shirt was a black and white striped hooded sweatshirt, unzipped. She wore pink and black checkered slip ons on her feet with no socks.
Hope Demi was the girl's real name but she referred to her self as "Shadow". She lifted her body up off the ground and sat on her knees dusting herself off. Hope's blue eyes looked to the right and saw her sketchpad about three feet away from where she had been previously. Without paying attention to the cut on her forehead, Hope stood up and walked over to where her drawing pad was then sat on her knees again and flipped through the pages. Her drawings were filled with sand .

Damion Gardner was in the back of the airplane reading Stephen King’s The Stand when the plane hit turbulence and the oxygen masks came down. When Damion placed the oxygen mask on he blacked out for a moment or two and the next thing he knew he was in the water. Damion saw the tail go underwater and decided to swim to shore.
Damion caught a wave that was crashing and body surfed into the sandy area where he saw that they were other people coming out of the water. He stood up and looked down at his wet clothes. He sighed and debated to himself if he should take off his shirt. He wasn’t paying much attention as he accidently ran into a girl who was looking at a drawing pad of some sort.

As she flipped through the pages and dusted them off hope looked up to notice the others who had survived, most of which were coming out of the water the tail end did end up in the water but hope hadn't been in a seat so she was ejected from the bathroom. She felt someone run into her.
"Hey watch where your going!" the petite girl said as she stood up quickly with her sketchpad in hand.
All of a sudden she started to feel dizzy. Hope put her hand to her forehead then brought it down, there was blood on her hand.
"nuts" Hope whispered. She started to get really dizzy then fell to the ground.

"Sorry" replied Damion as he stepped away from the girl and was about to help some of the passengers that were shouting for help in the distance when he suddenly heard the petite girl that he accidently ran into say, "nuts".
Damion spun around in the sand rather quickly as he watched her fall to the ground. Damion noticed that she was bleeding from the forehead and quickly went by the girl's side. He bit his lower lip as he went to his knees and started to snap his figures. He wasn't sure if the girl had passed out or what not. So he shouted, "Hey, can you hear me?"

Hope had gotten hit in the head probably when she was launched from the plane, thats what one gets with a 5 foot frame and 95 pound body, you get thrown easily. Hope had blacked out for a short time. When she regained consciousness she could hear someone snapping their fingers.
Hope slowly opened her eyes.
"Being hit on the head really ruins everything" Hope mumbled in her aussie accent.
She was still lying on the ground. Her vision was returning as she looked at the guy.

"Being hit on the head really ruins everything" Hope mumbled in her aussie accent.
Damion heard what the girl he ran into had said and nodded in agreement. "Yeah it does, but what is worse is waking up in the water" He said as got up and held out his right hand. He was offering to help her get up. Being friendly to his fellow passengers was the only thing he could possibly do at this moment in time. "I'm Damion by the way" He said introducing himself.

Hope looked up at the guy offering his hand and she took it and stood up. For a moment she almost lost her balance, but Hope regained it.
"Yeah it does, but what is worse is waking up in the water" He said
Hope put her hands on her hips and looked down and up yes the guy was definitely soaked.
"I see your point" She agreed.
Hope went to pick up her sketchpad again and closed it, she placed it in her red backpack.
"I'm h-" She paused. "Shadow, call me Shadow" She introduced herself. It was an alias she made up after her mother died because that's how she felt, like a shadow.
"Nice to meet you Damion"

Damion watched the girl called Shadow carefully as he noticed that she was one of the lucky ones that wasn't all soaked. He sighed and smiled as she got up. "It is a pleasure to met you Shadow" He paused for a little minute as gazed down at his lovely wet clothes. He needed to change, but that would have to wait till later. "So I see from your accent that your an Aussie!" Damion announced trying to make a decent conversation.

Hope looked at this boy called Damion, yeah he was soaked, must have fallen in the water when the tail section broke off. Her clothes were dry but it wasn't really that much fun being launched from the plane. Man, that hurt. She touched her forehead again it was still bleeding. She took a Bandana out of her red back pack and tied it around her head.
"Yes, I am born and Raised Down under." She said as she tightened the cloth around her head a little tighter to hopefully cause the blood to clot.
She didn't care that she looked like a real dork.
"Where are you from?" She asked with her accent.

"Nice Sydney was awesome, I went to the Opera with my Aunt and Uncle before we decided to dive at the Great Barrier Reef" Damion replied as he enjoyed the Sydney Opera House. It was an interesting design and it was very huge inside. He paused for a bit as she asked where he was from. He was born on an Army base and spent half of his youth in San Diego with his Aunt and Uncle. He decided that he would say his current address, "A place call Las Vegas, Nevada" He said not knowing if she knew about Las Vegas or not.

"Abso-bloody-lutley!" Hope exclaimed agreeing with Damion. "Lots of amazing things down under, i could have lived there forever."
Yes she was speaking in past tense, Hope's father sent her away because she had been causing trouble, or so he thought. Ever since her mother died her father has blamed her for almost everything else too, he couldn't take it. Didn't help much that naturally Hope looked almost identical to her mother.
Hope listened to Damion's story. "So you're a Yank, not to hard to tell by your accent" Hope smiled. "I know about Vegas, my older sister said she had been there before." Hope paused remembering what her sisters words were. "She mentioned alot of bar flies trying to hit on her"

"Yeah, it was a shame on having to leave" He acknowledge. He really didn't want to leave Sydney or Aussie for that matter, but worked called and he had to go to work. He actually missed work, but now work was just going to have to wait till he got off this bloody island.
"Aye, I'm a bloody Yank" He said in his impression of an British accent. He laughed at his accent it really sucked. He listened to what Shadow had said about Vegas. He knew it to be right. Vegas was a weird place at times and it was a party town. "Yeah, a lot of barflies, I'm a lab tech for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, and I have seen weird things."

Hope was still listening to Damion but she kept thinking she was hearing something behind her. Hope couldn't help but look back. She looked back at Damion just as he was attempting at an English accent. Hope had to stop from laughing.
"You know you could use some work on that accent" She bluntly smirked.
He went on to talk about the bars. "What kind of weird stuff?" Hope asked randomly.

Damion laughed at her comment about his lovely British accent. "Yes, it does need some work" He would probably ask for his friends that were all British to help him with his accent, but he knew that they would just laugh at him because an Yankee trying to be British would be kind of crazy.
"So you want to know what kind of weird things" He paused for a moment and thought of one. "Well, Vegas does have a blood bar, that is where all the insane people who believe they are vampires hang out" He shook his head. He remembered dealing with some stuff in that case. It seriously grossed him out.

(OOC: IRL i can imitate a British accent and I'm American LOL)
Hope had to laugh this guy was kind of funny she had to admit, he would make a good friend, only a friend though. Hope loved having a friend that could make her laugh, well she never really had many to begin with. She guessed maybe she could start over, no one knew her on the plane, or so that's what she thought. She still didn't want anyone to know her birth name, at least not yet.
"Blood bar huh?" Hope started.
She cleared her throat. She made her hands look like claws as she put part of the sweatshirt over her mouth.
"I vant to 'uck yer blood" Hope said imitating a vampire as a joke. one of the few accents she could imitate.
