You groggily open your eyes. You feel the sensation of the sponge like bed you lay upon. A subtle aroma of leather and sweat fill your nostrils. Wait...That's not normal. Your eyes shoot open, and you are reminded of your situation. To your right is a short brown plain that ends in a cliff, beyond which are large blurry shapes moving to and fro. You turn you head left, and you are met with 5 distinct shapes, yet strangely similar. Then your logical brain finally wakes back up fully. They are toes. Specifically, the toes of the redhead woman you earlier decided to hitch a ride with for a free vacation. You've no idea how long you've slept, your watch does not tell time, strangely. You glance upwards and see a clock attached to the wall. It is hard to make out, but it indicates 3:30 pm. It seems the flight has been delayed over an hour, granting you your restful sleep. However, it also pisses off your carrier, who now indicates her displeasure of the delays by stomping her foot. Thankfully, it is not the foot you are co located with. The pale thing raises and crashes down, sandal in tow, its proximity and loudness shake you.
You then look up for the first time, following the long pale exposed leg of your carrier. It ends at the knee and you are unable to see any more of her, other than the accompanying calf and knee. Above, you are certain the woman is quite angered at being denied her vacation at the time she wanted. But you've no idea how long that delay will be. You sit up onto your butt, hands resting behind you, and stare at her pale toes. They scrunch, hard, squeezing tight in frustration. They then release outwards, once again bathing you in their smell. You are literally millimeters from death. This is a dangerous place to be. So, what's your next step?
