3 litAnthony C. Hill 617 A Nightmare in a Place Called NOWHERE I was flying with my friends on a small Boeing 737 somewhere between Pennsylvania and Virginia. There were sixteen of us and fifteen others. We were heading back to California from a military boot camp. The camp was located in a secret place close to Washington D.C. We had been there for 6 months and been trained with vehicles, weapons, directions, and combat. The only thing in our mind was "I couldn't wait to go home." We've been flying for about an hour now. We passed by towns and we saw many farms and roads. It looked like we were going near a big lake. It was a giant lake, just like the one in Michigan. Then we thought "We are going the wrong way." We walked by the cockpit door and looked inside and saw two grown men jump out of the doors of the airplane and open their parachutes below. We then thought "They are terrorists, evil terrorists, ruthless terrorists." As we noticed the plane was flying with no pilot, two boys and I took the controls and told everyone to get back in their seats. We did what we were trained in boot camp and we used our knowledge of planes. The fuel gauge said we only had enough fuel to go 450 miles. The nearest city or airport was 520 miles away. It meant when we run out of fuel we will have to glide. It might not get to the city, but it will get us close. We were going about 400 miles an hour. About an hour we later, positioned us in crash positions. It was a matter of time until our left engine went out then our right engine went out. We were at tree level. Then we were scratching the trees below. Then "Boom", we crashed in a plain area then skidded a hundred feet then stopped. We checked all the seats and no one was hurt. We then got out of the plane and immediately smelled thick trees and heard water running. We all had radios, rifles, maps, batteries, flashlights, some machetes, and some food rations. Food rations are food that can help a soldier survive for an amount of time. About seven guys and I went to a lake for water. When we were done we heard a sound. It sounded like "Ssssssssssss". Then we heard a crunching sound of leaves. "Crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch". We then saw bright, yellow eyes. We shot three rounds in the air and the creature disappeared. We got back to camp and told the rest of the guys what we saw. They didn't believe us. It was cold and dark. We built 5 fires around us and made a perimeter of stones and some sticks on fire. After that we ate some of our food rations. We had a transmitter but it had water in it. We dried it out and tried it. We got a voice from the radio and they said "Marine Base 101 to Alpha Juniors, we got a chopper for you tomorrow, go about 15 miles south into a plain field and a Chinook helicopter will pick you up. Out". That was good news. The only thing is something was watching us. It was morning and we started our hike. I still had a feeling something was watching us. We had 15 miles that we started off with and now had 11 miles to go. We crossed hills and valleys and saw beautiful landforms. We heard running. Not like from humans, but by an animal with claws. Then we turned around and saw a lizard about 13 feet long with sharp claws and sharp teeth, running after us at high speed. Then one person said "That was the thing we saw last night". We tried to scare it away by shooting our guns close to it, but it kept on running. Now it was our turn. We ran like cheetahs running for their life. We still had 9 miles to go. After we ran two more miles we stopped. We looked around and saw nothing of the animal. "I think that was a lizard" said one of the others. "Yo, I've seen some big lizards in my backyard, but they weren't the size of pythons or crocs like that one", said another. "That was a komodo dragon", I said. Then suddenly I saw something pop out of the grass. " Umm guys, uhhh, well I think its back" "Dddddeadly dddddino dddragon coming after us" said one of us. We left two timed charges on the ground and ran a hundred yards. Then the lizard came and "Boooooom", the charge went off and the dirt and grass flew into the air. The lizard was still not dead. It missed. We ran and we came to a plain area. We looked for a helicopter, but we saw the creature coming faster and about a half a mile away. We then heard the propellers of a giant helicopter. "There here, there here" yelled one of us. It landed right in front of us. We all got in just in time. The helicopter took off and the lizard was right below us. It jumped and banged the helicopter. One of the guys fell out. "Nooooooo David" said one of us. I wasn't going to let one of my guys stay there. I got on the fast rope and went down next to him. He had a cut on his head and a sprained arm and leg. The lizard looked and saw us. I put David on my shoulder and carried him. The creature was only 10 yards away. The helicopter dropped a basket with a rope connected to the helicopter. I ran and put David on the carriage and got beside him. I pulled out my rifle and shot at the lizard like 25 times. One of the shots got the creature in the leg and tail but it on kept running but it went slower. The helicopter brought us up and the lizard missed us by 2 inches. We were hoisted up into the helicopter and we were on our way to Base. I got a medal for heroism and leading a troop platoon into combat. We all got medals and David got a Purple Heart, a reward given to those injured in combat. This day on I will never forget that day. They caught the terrorists who were in the plane in a van en route to Mexico. I always said God was with us.
