Lila Thorn: looks at the horizon The signal fire ready? Gotta catch passing ships.
Let's hope this makeshift flag catches someone's eye. We need help ASAP.
Let’s start our journey now
starts gathering supplies and setting up a makeshift shelter Alright, let's get started. We'll need food, water, and a way to protect ourselves from any wild animals or pirates.
I start building a big boat out of wood
organizes tools and materials Great idea! A boat will make our journey safer and easier. Let's gather more materials and work together to build it.
the boat is finished it’s huge
inspects the boat Perfect! This will keep us safe as we travel across the ocean. Good job, Boaue! Now, let's stock up on supplies and prepare for our journey.
navigates the map and calculates their course Alright, Boaue, we're setting sail!
takes turns steering the boat, monitoring the weather forecast, and ensuring the sails are properly trimmed
we are on the ocean when a storm hits us the boat fills with water
grabs the emergency life jackets Quick, Boaue! We need to abandon ship! Grab the life jackets and get to the lifeboat!
we jump into the lifeboat the storm is too strong
activates the emergency signaling devices and sends out a distress call May Day! May Day! Help us! We're stranded in the middle of the ocean! Side Note: As they drift in the lifeboat, they spot a distant ship sailing by. However, their efforts to signal for help go unnoticed. Hours later, they begin to feel the effects of hypothermia setting in...
Arrrrrrrrrgggg!!! What bad luck!!
Hang tight, Boaue! We just have to stay afloat until someone notices us. Keep your head warm by huddling close to me.
I try but my hands are freezing
Hold on, Boaue! I have an idea. We need to start a fire to keep warm and signal for help. Let me see what we have in our survival kit.
Why didn’t you tell me before my hands were frozen solid
As Lila rummages through the survival kit, she accidentally drops a match into the water, causing the entire kit to become waterlogged and useless. The firewood is also damp and unable to burn properly. Despite their efforts, they are unable to start a fire and begin to succumb to hypothermia.
grabs Boaue's hand tightly Stay with me, Boaue! We can't give up now. We'll find a way to survive.
I can’t feel my fingers anymore
Don't lose hope, Boaue! We've got to keep your blood circulating. Climb on top of me and wrap your arms around my neck tightly.
pulls Boaue close, wrapping her arms around him Hold on tight, Boaue! We'll share body heat and fight hypothermia together.
the next morning a ship passes by we signal it frantically
waves arms, starts a fire, and uses the flare gun Please see us! We're right here! Help! Help!
they stop the boat and lower a rescue boat and pick us up
tears of relief streaming down her face Thank you! Thank you so much! We were so lucky to be seen. Let's get aboard that ship quickly and find medical attention.
we get checked by a doctor he says we are very lucky to be found
grabs Boaue's hand and looks into his eyes You're right, Boaue. We're incredibly lucky to have been found.
Yeah, we better enjoy it because we might not be that lucky again
Absolutely, Boaue! We'll cherish this second chance at life and make sure to never take anything for granted. hugs Boaue tightly
after we get off the ship we go home
rushes inside the house and heads straight to the kitchen Alright, Boaue! Time to replenish our energy with a hearty meal.
starts rummaging through the cupboards and pantry, pulling out ingredients Let's see what we have in the kitchen...
grabs a pot and starts sautéing onions and garlic We're gonna make a warm, comforting bowl of chicken soup! It'll hit the spot after everything we've been through.
adds diced vegetables, chicken broth, and noodles to the pot There we go! Just like my mom used to make.
the next morning I wake up feeling great
jumps out of bed, stretches, and puts on a pot of coffee Morning, Boaue! I'm glad you're feeling better today.
