Chapter 5 - Underwater

Near Bermuda Triangle, 3 a.m.

The morning sky was a little cloudy, but it was not hard to see what was ahead.
"How many kilometers away is Bermuda Triangle?", Skipper asked Kowalski.
"About 7 atau 8 miles. Probably there will be turbulence", Kowalski said. "We will be in the segitiga, segi tiga soon."

The time passed fast. Very fast.
Kowalski was sleepy, like Private, Rico, Marlene and the others, except Skipper. His coffee was infallible.
"Want one?" Skipper berkata as he offered a cup of coffee for him.
"Thanks, Skipper", Kowalski said, yawning and put the plane on automatic control. "But I'll sleep."
"See anda later, Kowalski."
Kowalski sat on a kerusi, tempat duduk of the plane and fell asleep immediately.

Bermuda Triangle, 4 a.m.

It seemed that the team had eaten something poisonous. The plane was completely silent, except the control room, where Skipper was.
Suddenly, an error. The Autopilot broke.
"Oh my", Skipper berkata as he ran to the kerusi, tempat duduk where Kowalski slept. "Kowalski, wake up", he shook him.
"Mm-mm, mom, 5 minutes...", Kowalski said, dazed.
"KOWALSKI!!"
Nothing. Skipper ran to the seterusnya seat, Marlene.
"Marlene, wake up", he shook her. Nothing. And he tried it with all people; without result.

The plane began to fell. Skipper ran to the control room and tried to control the plane, but nothing worked. What remained to be done? It was certain death.

Woosh, the noise when the plane fell into water, followed sejak a Boom, when it exploded.
On impact, all were ejected from the plane and were submerged.
And all - except Skipper - were still sleeping.
Fortunately, Skipper was the best swimmer.
Unfortunately, he couldn't save all without help.

3 members were seterusnya to Skipper in water.
Kowalski was the worst swimmer. And he didn't sleep in the last night.
Mort was just a kid. Obviously, he probably would not have strength to save so many people.
Marlene was a good swimmer. Not like Skipper, but better than Kowalski. Also, she had a good breath.
The choice was obvious.

Skipper - almost breathless - pulled Marlene to surface. The sudden change of water/air could wake her. Result: she woke up.
"W-what... what happened?", she asked, dazed.
"It's great we're alive, but I don't have time to explain what happened. I need anda to save the rest of the team while I put them in that boat", he berkata quickly as he showed her the boat.
"Hey, where anda found-- forget."

A/N: Okay, I'll admit. This chapter was very Skipper/Marlene-centric - they and Kowalski are the main characters. Okay, but, as I said: nothing exaggerated. Nothing like "I Cinta you" - although I'm a Skilener -, because it is kinda corny. I don't like. Just it. And the water scene was here, yeah, because... I'm Membaca again "The Sea of Monsters" (Percy Jackson 2nd book)- water scenes with explosions are just epic. Aaaand because I and Icicle were RolePlaying a hilarious scene. And the main characters were my kegemaran characters. I daydreamed Kowalski can't swim. Don't ask me why...x3
