Night Without End

Red Ice in Greenland

by Zhi Hao

This incident happened when an airliner crashed in the middle of desolate ice-cap in Greenland save for some a few scientists who are doing research. A call for help was received because of a mission to save the survivors along with a scientist who helped them from cold and starvation. On the way there however, there was a scene happening right before my eyes as I approached the glacier.

There was a tractor which was going ahead at rate that was very dangerous on such steep,narrow and slippery land and there was another vehicle trailing it's steps. However the tractor came to a stop after a while then we heard a gun shot coming from the tractor and a man (which I presume was a hostage that tried to fight back) was laid out on the snow which was bloodied (he fortunately survived). A man named Zagero from the second vehicle emerged and attacked the person (Corazzini) who shot the man (Zagero's father) and killed him after a short battle. The criminal's accomplice (Smallwood) escaped with another hostage (Margaret) by the tractor but  fell into a crevasse. The scientist (Dr. Mason) hurried over, dropped a rope and jumped down. After a while, Margaret was pulled up with the help of Dr. Mason's friends and coming behind was Dr. Mason himself. There was no sign of Smallwood who fell in. In the end, the crevasse closed up, and so ending the life of the last criminal.
