The Survivalists //(Plane view of Madagascar)// //By: Taylor Farrell,// //Keaton Blanton,// //Ryshaneek Starling,// //& Daziah Adams// In the middle of May four friends, Taylor Farrell, Keaton Blanton, Ryshaneek Starling, and Daziah Adams, are on their way to Cambodia, when a terrible storm sweeps over them. Taylor looses control of the plane. The plane swerves from right to left. Taylor shouts, “It’s not looking good. Put on your seat belts!” Then, out of nowhere, Taylor sees an Air Force Carrier. He slows the plane to land it on the ship. We land and get off the plane. Meanwhile, one of the Air Force men is smoking and Ryshaneek sees him. “That man is smoking next to a tub of gasoline,” Ryshaneek whispers in Daziah’s ear. As soon as she says it the man puts the cigarette in the tank of gas. BOOM!!! All four friends jump off the ship and dolphins magically help them to the shore of Madagascar. Everyone looks around at the beautiful island. “Where we at,” Taylor asks. “I believe we’re on the shore of Madagascar,” Keaton replied. “What?! We’re in where!” Daziah and Ryshaneek exclaim in unison. Keaton says, “Calm down ya’ll we are just southeast of Africa.” Everyone starts setting up the shelter by going out and getting wood, leaves, and branches. Daziah and Ryshaneek start a fire in the shelter. Since the food didn’t survive the crash Ryshaneek and Daziah look for food. Taylor and Keaton stay and feed the fire.

While Ryshaneek and Daziah were looking for food the get attacked by a Fossa. (bottom picture) Daziah says to be still, play dead, and he will go away. They kill a Lemur (top picture) with a dead bird’s claw and take it back to the shelter. Everyone ate a little bit of it because they ate before the crash. By night fall everyone is tried, and sleeps like a sack of potatoes. In the morning, Ryshaneek and Daziah go out to get something to eat for breakfast. Mostly, everyone is tried from the crash, so everyone sleeps. Everyone is hungry, so we eat leftovers from the Lemur. Then go back to sleep.



By the fifth day things are going smooth. Everyone is eating lunch when the shelter falls in. A big fire comes up and the whole shelter is ruined. Meanwhile, a plane flies by and they signal it. The plane lands in the water on the beach and the pilot gives us a ride back to the United States. We are finally leaving Madagascar. It will be good to get home!
