Jamie quickly reached for something to hold onto, but it was no use.
The car was falling the last ten meters within no more than a second, the law of nature was back, determined to finish what it had started.
Jamie didn't even got the chance to scream.
And so came the first impact.
The car slammed with four wheels onto a rocky ledge, but Jamie's body didn't read the pain before the second hit came.
The first impact had sent the car airborne, and it spun helpless trough the air like a toy thrown by an angry child.
Then it crahsed a second and final time, up and down, onto the rocks below. The windows broke and glass flew into the cabin.
The force threw Jamie around like a puppet doll.
With great violence, he was thrown out of his seatbelt and crashed headfirst into the car's metal frame, and all light went out with a flash. The veichle, now only a pile of burning, twisted metal, made a final few tumbles down the hill before stopping, lying on the roof, burning silently.
Jamie didn't notice any of this though.
He was uncoincious long before the car stopped.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mrs. Audrey stood next to the cliff's edge. She saw the burning wreckage far down there. Her face didn't show any emotions. She stood there looking for a while before returning to her own car. She sat down in the backseat, and the car rolled away from the scene, as if it had never happened.

4 days later...
Jamie opened his eyes. His first thought was that he was glad to be alive, which he could tell that he was. He looked up above himself, and saw a white/yellow roof, with a big lamp on it, casting a bright light in the room of where he was in.
He turned his hed slowly to the left. His neck was aching, and he grunted.
Now he saw more of the room.
There were white beds, trolleys and small chairs. The room was white.
He focused on what was under him. He was also lying in a bed, with a white blanket over him. Next to him was a drip stand, of which a vein went from a small bag filled with liquid, went into a cannula in his left arm.
He forced himself to look to the right, and saw Lizzie, sitting on a chair next to his bed, reading a book.
"Hi..." Jamie said. He didn't have that much trouble speaking.
It took a second for Lizzie to react that she was spoken to, but when she did, she more or less threw the book away from her and felt to her knees next to Jamie's bed.
"Jamie! Thank god you're alive! I'm so glad!" she cried, small tears beginning to pour from her eyes. She hold his right hand tightly.
"I thought you'd never wake up!"
Jamie smiled, he was feeling very well to see her.
"Where... am I?" he said and let his eyes wander trough the room.
Lizzie wiped away her tears and sat back onto the chair.
"This might be abit too much for you to take now Jamie..." she started.
"You're at the school, in the hospital building. I'll show you around later, but I can tell you Jamie, this place is amazing!" she said, shining.
Jamie belived her, but he wanted more. He had to ask.
"What happened...?" he said and starred up in the roof.
Lizzie sat silent for a bit...
"... After the crash... alot of things happened. I woke up in the car, and found out that it was on fire. Daniel and Robert were councious by that time, but you had passed out..." She made a pause and pointed on her forehead.
"You're gonna have a scar there for a while..." she said.
"The car was a wreck, and on fire. I have no clue how it happened, but somehow the fire was enguished. I have no idea how it happened.
We managed to get you out anyway, and we waited by the shore, down by sea.
It didn't take long before they found us, a helicopter. They took us here."
"Where's Daniel and Rob...?" Jamie asked her.
"They're fine. They're both at another room not far from here. We got seperated once we got here. I haven't seen them so much..."
"And Masashige?"
"The Japanese boy? Well... he WAS with us when we got picked up... But I have no idea where he is now..."
Jamie sighed and sank into the bed.
"I'm hungry..." he complained.
"You should be! You've been out for 4 days!"
Jamie looked stumped.
"4 days!?"
"Please Jamie, you must not rush to get up. You'll have to lie in bed for a little while longer..."
Lizzie got up.
"I'll get you something to eat, I'll tell you more later! Ok?"
She walked away, but stopped at the door.
"We're all lucky to be alive Jamie... You just take it easy now..."
She dissapeared. Jamie leaned back into his bed. He wanted to see Daniel and Rob, but he understood it was out of question now, unless they were on their feet and coming to him...
He sighed. There was a remote controll on his right. He found out that it was used with a big plasma TV on the wall.
Great... he thought, and picked a chanel.
