Floating fishing platform...

We have finished eating salt-fried fish.

The bonfire was still burning, so in order to utilize the remaining heat, we found some utensils for holding water and started boiling water...

I asked if there were any doctors or those who knew first aid to check the injured people...

The previous harsh earthquake and bad living conditions have left certain injuries on many people.

We had to take care of such injuries as soon as possible to avoid any future troubles due to prolonged untreated injuries.

While we were in the confusion of Apocalypse and finding about our surroundings, making Floating steps and finally fishing and bonfire, we have already delayed a lot of time.

So any injuries needed to be taken care of immediately.

I asked some Active survivors to take a count of people and also an inventory of food and objects we have with us, so as to get a clear picture of our current situation.

Supplies are very important and that's what I have learned by reading so many novels and seeing a few movies.

Now that I think back on the things that happened so far, I felt it all happened just as I predicted or to be accurate 'deduced' maybe...

I talked with a few people and expressed my opinion about the situation of Earth and the fact that there might be an Apocalypse underway in its making...but no one truly believed me...

Now that my predictions came true and see that the state we were in, I don't have the choice to tell these fellow survivors, 'I predicted it, but no one believed me'. Neither did anyone take me seriously nor did they express their opinions on the things I said to them.

If I were to ever tell them this, I am not sure the next thing that would happen...

We were all in the same mood of being lost on what to do?

How to get out of this situation?

How can we survive without many supplies?

Are our families alright?

Will there be more problems ahead? So on...

We needed to Survive in order to find our Families and a way out of this situation...

Not everyone can adapt to the changing situation.

Even if they can they can't adapt to Apocalypse so quickly.

All were not in the right mindset to face the problems ahead.

Since I can't say that, 'I predicted it', nor can I say I was the novelist who wrote all that was going to happen as a novel, I could only keep it as a secret till maybe it is time to reveal in the future. Being a novel reader and writer, my mind was adapting to the current situation rather quickly. Now that I have started to sort out the situation, After looking at the food inventory, I have come to the conclusion, we need more fish. So, I asked those who know how to fish to take the help of others and try to catch some more fish. But the problem was we didn't have many appliances to catch fish. We also didn't have a place enough for many survivors to stand below near the water as the steps are narrow and can only carry two or three survivors at once...any more even one more than the steps Capacity will just send the excess floating around...

Steps Capacity can be seen by the size of each step...

some were big enough for one person to sit but if two try to stand on it the second will be sent floating around...

that means just like the Floating Mountain's gravity field, these boulders also have smaller gravity fields...

This gravity field depends on the size of the boulders...

Now we need to move the bigger boulders that can hold three or more people at one time.

This will ensure that there is enough help to pull up the nets from the water below.

Thus began the second round of pulling boulders, I have come up with the idea to arrange them in the form of a platform making them turn into a Floating Fishing platform.

After few hours of struggle, we finished making the platform and started fishing after some rest. Meanwhile, I asked the other survivors who couldn't pull boulders to collect the seeds of different fruits and vegetables available, all for the preparation to see if we could plant them.

The situation around us, tells us that we might have to remain isolated for some time, at least till we reach and find out what lies beyond the gravity barrier of the surroundings.

These two terms might seem strange but I derived them from my understanding of Earth before Apocalypse. Earth had its own gravity field and Magnetic barrier which helped us walk on the surface and kept away any of the unwanted stuff like meteors and asteroids.

Most of the time these two outer space disasters were kept away from reaching Earth by her Magnetic field.

Ozone Layer kept away the harmful effects of sunlight by reflecting back a part of Sun rays, only allowing visible and Infrared light to pass through it onto the Earth Surface.

We were the ones that riddled this Protection Layer around Earth by polluting our environment and creating harmful chemicals and gases that ultimately led to Apocalypse.
