That night Matt woke up he saw Tai, Sora, TK and Joe...he woke them up. "Guys...come on." He whispered, they all woke up slowly.
Sora had moved slightly that cause her and Tai to fall out of the hammock that was set up for them to sleep in, the both landed on the ground Tai on top Sora on the bottom, they both looked at each other shocked. "Come on lets go." Matt urged, Tai looked up at him, Sora did also. "We are." Tai said to him as he slowly got off of Sora, she sat up and Tai threw her shirt.
.....
a whiles later the group started to go to find there boat, they hide in the grass. "Okay it's here." Joe replied he pulled the grass out of the way and sure enough the boat was there still. "Okay I'll escort everyone one by one...." Matt replied. "Okay...fair enough." Joe said to him. "TK hop in." Matt said to his brother...TK got in. "Okay I'll be back as soon as I can." Matt told the others they nodded. "Okay just be careful." Sora told both of them, nodding they started off down the river current.
"When we get home I'll get to propose to Samantha." Matt said happily. "Yeah...I knew you wanted to." TK told him. "I know...you wanted to say something to Kari." Matt responded back to him. "I didn't." TK defended. "Sure...." he replied then looked on...he grew concerned as did TK as the calmer river current began to go faster.
"Matt is a river supposed to go faster?" TK asked...he looked back where they left the three. "Joe! Sora! Tai! HELP!" TK shouted to them hopping they could here. "We have to stop it!" Matt cried the river started to go faster...that it now started t hit up against rocks. "Shit! Were stuck...it's turned into a white water river!" TK cried.
"That was TK." Tai replied, both Sora and Joe looked at him in shock and Tai started along the riverbed it was late morning hours so little bit of light out was enabling them to see as they ran. "MATT! TK!" Tai shouted from the riverside as he ran in front through the brush, Sora and Joe followed close behind him.
"COME ON STOP!" Matt shouted at the boat it was falling miserably, suddenly their boat hit a rock throwing both Matt and TK into the rushing river. TK managed to fight the current and made it to shore...Matt tried to swim toward shower it wasn't having much effect he kept going down the river currents carrying him. Climbing on shore TK looked at Matt. "MATT!" he shouted, he got up on shore and tried to run toward him the current swiping his brother further toward a water fall, TK's clothing were soaked as he continued to run.
Tai quickly came on the scene he saw the over turned boat...Sora and Joe came on as soon as Tai had arrived they both gasped. "MATT! TK!" he shouted, he spotted someone running... "TK? MATT?" he called, then kept running.
TK stopped Matt kept on going down the river there was a hole in a stone were a waterfall was located. "MATT SWIM!" TK shouted. "I can't!" he replied Matt tried to grab on to the rocks that he past but couldn't get a grip on them he kept slipping at ever attempt he tried. He came closer every second to the waterfall in the rocks.
Tai, Sora and Joe arrived to TK's side. "We need a rope!" Tai replied. "I got one." Joe replied he dug into his bag and pulled out the rope. Tai made a knot at the end of it. "Matt Catch!" he called to him, he threw it but it missed him. Then without warning he disappeared into down the waterfall...gone....
"NO! MATT!" TK shouted he began to break down Sora hugged him comforting him. "Shh..." she whispered. Tai looked away dejectedly, Joe hung his head down, the slowly head back to the 'hell hole' as described by Matt.
*********************
Weeks turned to months.... it soon turned to years.... 1 year after the plane crash...it was March 5th past the first anniversary for their deaths.
Kari watched threw the window breeze blowing some cherry blooms it looked like a shower of pink petals...she sighed, Izzy and the others made her realize that they weren't coming back...they were never coming back. Tears sprung in her eyes as she remember he last few words with Tai and Sora the day before they were sent to leave to South America.
Flashback....
"Okay were packed an ready to go tomorrow." Tai replied he looked at his watch...Kari came in the room. "Tai...I just got bad news...I have to stay here...I can't go with you guys." She replied sounding sad. "Oh that's all right you can fly out another day and meet us at the hotel were staying at." Tai replied, Sora came into the room. "Hi Kari." She replied. "Sora...I cant' come with you guys so I guess our shopping plans are trashed." She whispered. "Oh...why can't you come?" she asked.
"It turns out that I have an huge teaching exam coming up soon...and I can't come..." she said.
"That's alight.... we'll be back before you know it." Tai replied he patted her on her back.
End flashback...
Tears began to flow down her cheeks, she sighed in heavily, sniffed a bit. "I thought they were alive still...I guess I was hoping for the best which wasn't going to come." She told herself softly she held in her tears there was a knock at her dorm door. She opened it and saw a familiar purple hair person. "Yolie." She replied softly. "Hi Kari...I should have phoned." Yolie immediately told her in regret. "No come in." Kari replied and ushered her in. Kari hugged her tightly.
And began to cry. "Yolie...I.... thought they were alive...." she cried she hugged her friend. "I know...we all would have though so...if they didn't find evidence they were dead." She replied.
Kari pulled way from her. "I'm sorry." She replied. "I got too emotional." She replied softly. "No that's okay." Yolie replied softly. "It's hard....I can't believe I 'll never see him again." She replied she sat down on the sofa. "I'll never see him...I'll never get my chance to say TK I really love you...you're my best friend in the entire world." She replied tears ran down her cheek. Yolie hugged her.
"Kari try to move on." She replied softly. "I can't...I can't move on...it's too hard." She cried
**************
TK lay in the hammock he watched the ceiling of the straw hut. "We've been here for a year...." Joe trailed off...he looked at his watch. "it's been a year?" TK questioned. "Shit...I hate this place." He responded. "Where's Sora?" he questioned looking around. "She's washing our clothing." He said to him. "Oh...I think these people hate us bye the way." He replied... "It's better If we left and tried to look for civilization." Joe said to him then going into his bag he pulled out the map. "See look here...if we could just follow the river then we can get out of here.... because rivers always all flow to one place and that is the ocean." He said pointing with his finger. "Hey guys." Tai replied as he was carrying up some of the wet clothing that Sora washed...she came after.
"I really miss my washing machine." She replied then sat on her hammock. Tai spread the wet clothing out on the side of the hut. "I miss my television." Tai replied. "We all are miss something...from home." TK replied Sora got up. "I forgot something I'll be back." She went down the stairs by the river.
While Sora was gone "I miss Matt...." he trailed off. "TK." Joe said to him softly. "Don't got down that....path again..." Tai trailed off it was as if the miss hap had happened long time ago. "I CAN'T HELP IT! HE DIDN'T DESEVRE TO DIE LIKE THAT!" he shouted enraged. "Shh...I know how you feel I tried to save him..." TK interrupted him. "You didn't try hard enough Tai! I don't think you were even trying! I bet you wanted him to die after what he did to you!" he replied angry, Tai grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and lifted him. "Don't you accuse me of that." Tai whispered heatedly, TK smiled merely "Come on hit me I dare you!" he said to him.
"GUYS!" Joe shouted, the looked at him. "Don't start again...this isn't the time or place to fight." He replied. Tai let go of TK and he fell. John came up to see them. "You guys are requested at the Elders meeting." He replied. "What for?" Tai questioned. "Just be there." John replied then left them. "Fucking bastard." Tai mumbled under his breathe. "Okay look I know you all tired.... and home sick but we can't start getting mad." Joe told them. "Okay fine...I'm not mad...I'm extremely irritated." Tai replied.
"Not to mention that I'm sick and tired of these people and they're constant wanting to know the frigen 'lost words'" TK replied... "It would be easier if we found a bible and tell them to read it." Joe said.
Down at the where they were washing the clothes...Sora was washing something of hers, the chosen women watched her...finally having enough of the staring Sora looked up. "What?" she asked...they didn't say anything but Sora had a feeling. "Is there a problem? Because...I don't know the right way to wash my clothes by hand?" she asked annoyed.
"We find it strange that you wash the way you're washing." Elena replied she looked as Sora. "I don't care....just because I'm not one to wash my clothes by hand doesn't me you can harasses me!" Sora shouted and angrily returned to the tree house stomping her feet as she proceeded. The other women watched her walk away. "These new people are strange no wonder they don't fit in well." She commented.
At the Elders Joe, Tai and TK were facing the four elders. "Okay so you want us to tell you the lost words...because....?" Tai trailed off his question. "Look I saw you fall from the heavens." John replied to them. "How many times have we been through this before?" Joe asked. "Yeah...I mean...what you saw was nothing from heaven...out side of this....this place that you guys call home there is an advanced civilization, We can fly, we have cars for transport...we work make money...we have machines that do stuff for us." TK replied he looked at them.
The elders looked at them in awe. "Then the place you come from must be heaven....is that was it is like?" one questioned. "No, you don't understand we don't come from heaven...our plane crashed...we were stranded here." Joe said to them he looked beyond angry more frustrated any one person could get.
"That's an unbelievable idea...how can one fly?" he questioned. "Look...I don't know the lost words...TK doesn't know the lost word Sora and Joe don't know the lost words." Tai replied. "We don't know them." Tai said trying to be nice. "We'll give you another 3 months to tell us the words or else we will know that you are impostors." The first one ranking elder declared.
"Fine far enough." TK replied they were escorted down the tree house...John looked at the elders. "You said they came from the heavens yet they no nothing of the lost words." One replied. "I saw it with my own eyes." He told them.
********************
Later that year.... nearly a half a year after the crashes....
Kari sighed as she looked out the window into the schoolyard she was on her break drinking a cup of coffee she appeared lost in her thoughts. One of her fellow staff came into the room. "Kari?" she questioned, she turned around and greeted her with a smile. "Hi Lindsay." She smiled. "What were you doing?" she asked.
"Just watching the kids play...and remembering some happier times." She whispered. "Oh...right...I remember...what happened...you were only working here as a substitute teacher then." She said.
"You know me and my brother had a close connection...and I could sense when he hurt...even when he wasn't around. But I can't now...it's dulled...I thought for the first few weeks that he was alive I could sense he was.... but now I can't feel anything..." she trailed off and looked up at her friend. "I take it that you and your brother were close." She nodded "We were." She said.
****************
"FOR GODS SAKE!!" Tai shouted angrily. "What the hell is your problem." TK asked him, Tai growled and was about to got after him when... "STOP!" Sora cried she looked at both of them. "We shouldn't fight...nothing going to get accomplished that way." She told them.
"I know we are all pissed off...we are not acting ourselves...we have to focus." She replied calmly to the two.
All four were tired, extremely annoyed and irritated; Tai stopped shaving his now forming beard...which Sora didn't like very much. TK looked the same with the beard.... and all. Joe still shaved...what he could using the dull razor blade.
TK walked down the tree house then went to the forest it was starting to get dark...then there was howling around. The rustling in the bushes startled TK he looked up around him. "Who's there!" he cried he eyes widened as he asked the questioned.
A figure stepped out of the brush...TK gasped in total utter shock. "M...Ma...Matt?" he asked the man fainted. "JOE!" he cried.
