John waited a little while for the girl, pretty confident that she would return. When the ship lurched however, that confidence was gone, nor did he really care. He was now definitely sure there was a pretty good chance the ship was going down! He held on to the railings and fought to move forward - his goal was the large lifeboats; massive inflatable rubber rafts that could easily hold fifty people each.<br/><br/>Adrenaline pumped fast through his body, fueling him ahead. More people were about, with both crew and guests struggling to free the first few lifeboats. The ship lurched again and it was becoming apparent that the ship might capsize before even a single raft was deployed.<br/><br/>John's world was shifting dramatically. Up and down was becoming sideways and he slid along the deck, smashing hard into a pole of some kind. Luckily the life vest cushioned some of the impact.<br/><br/>Rain and wind and waves whipped across the ship as it turned entirely over, sending a few people into the sea while the rest remained trapped inside. They would have gone down with the ship and rest in this massive metallic grave on the bottom of the sea had it not been for the fact that the cruiser was just brushing up against some cliffs or reefs.<br/><br/>The steel was cut open and spilling tons of debris before sinking.<br/><br/>John was in the water, fighting for survival.
