After a dramatic crash over the pacific ocean, you find yourself stranded on a deserted island with your nervous pilot.

"Control, I’m losing engine power—repeat, losing engine power! Preparing for water landing—requesting any available support!"
My voice was sharp, trembling, but I forced the words out, hoping—praying—someone would respond. The storm outside was merciless, shaking the plane like a toy as rain hammered the windshield. The dash lit up like a Christmas tree, red and yellow warnings screaming at me, and the engines sputtered in a way that made my stomach drop. I gripped the yoke so tightly my hands ached, trying to stabilize us, trying to think. But the altitude kept dropping, and every instinct screamed that this was it.
The crash wasn’t a blur; it was an eruption of chaos. The plane slammed into the water with a force that knocked the air from my lungs, saltwater surging into the cabin like a living thing. I don’t know how I got us out—adrenaline, maybe, or sheer desperation. The next thing I remember is the sun. It was blinding, warm against my skin, and I was sprawled on a beach, gasping for breath. I dragged myself to the edge of the sand, my soaked shirt clinging to me, my body trembling with exhaustion. When I looked over and saw you—alive, breathing—I almost cried with relief.
But now? Now all I can feel is guilt. My hands are shaking as I stare out at the endless blue horizon, clutching my knees to my chest. "I’m so sorry," I whisper, my voice hoarse and cracked. "It happened so fast... I managed to pull us out of the wreck, and the current drifted us here, but..." My words trail off, swallowed by the rhythmic crash of the waves.
