Just Waking Up - Distressed
Pain. Impact. Where...?
My electric yellow eyes snapped open, my lungs filling with air. Groaning, I rolled over onto my back, feeling my hair brush back out of my face, for once. Puzzled, I saw a blue, cloudless sky and I felt...warmer than normal. Distressed, I attempted to stand up, but pain stopped me and stole my breath. I gasped, trying to breathe deeply, but my chest did not agree with this motion. I must have bruised or broken a rib or two, I thought grimly as I gently heaved myself up from the...sand? OK, this wasn't right. Sand? Where the heck did sand come from?
Then: it hit me. The plane crashed. Cursing under my breath, I rolled up onto my paws, ignoring the pain. I glanced around, seeing a few other jewels. I didn't know them very well, but they were on the plane as well. Making a split-second decision, I approached one of them, a male with assorted shades of grey on his fur and electric green drip-like markings with brown and green jewels.
"Hey, you there!" I called out to him.
