To whom it may concern, we are survivors of Oceanic Flight 815. We have survived on this island for 80 days. We were 6 hours into the flight when the pilot said we were off course and turned back towards Fiji. We hit turbulence and crashed. We've been waiting here, all this time, waiting for rescue that has not come. We do not know where we are, we only know you have not found us. We've done our best to live on this island. Some of us have come to accept that we may never leave it. Not all of us have survived since the crash, but there is new life too, and with it, there is hope. We are alive. Please don't give up on us.
-Claire's ORIGINAL letter to the World
I may change the letter slightly in this story. And I need you to ignore the fact that Keamy and his friends shot the seagull with the par avion on it's ankle...please

Daniel Faraday liked to go to the river and walk up and down the river bank every morning just thinking. Thinking about his failed attempts of time travel, think about all the people who laughed at his studies, think about Eloise, but mostly think about his new addiction; Oceanic Flight 815. Were there any survivors?
It was just then that Daniel spotted one of his previous test subjects. Number 4; the seagull. He had tagged it and everything. Daniel quickly ran over to the bird and picked it up.
"Gotcha!" He said as his he put his hand to it's tag. He had meant to take this off awhile ago. Then he noticed something. It looked like paper in the tag. He pulled it out realising it was a tag it read:

Please don't give up on us, because some of us have sure given up on you. Our Leader Jack Shepard and his 'side kick' Kate Austen are doing all they can to get us off this island. We have tried the transceiver from the front and back of the plane. We have tried to convince the people who live on the island to help us, but that only ended up with some over twenty of our people stolen or shot. We had found many discoveries on this island. including a Hatch that has a computer with no purpose, though it blew up, and a few other hatches. Also the others as we call them have homes, with electricity, and they come and go from the island...whenever...please we need your help- Claire Littleton
Daniel stood shocked for a few moments...there were survivors. He had to show somebody. But who?

It had been two weeks since Claire sent out the Par avion. In this time, Jack had returned with her. Claire wasn't thrilled with the idea that one of them were on the beach…not since…Ethan. But who was she to judge someone Jack thought so highly of?
"Hey Claire." Kate says walking towards her.
"Hey Kate, something wrong?" She knew was wrong. She could see Juliet and Jack in the kitchen acting all couple like.
But Kate still gave her best fake-smile telling Claire that she was not alright. "Yeah, you know…I'm fine. So Charlie told me that you put a note in a tag on a seabirds ankle."
Claire smiles and nods. "Just doing what I can to get us home." Kate's fake smile disappears. Only to be replaced by a very real frown.
"Yeah…home…" She looked distant for a moment, before she looked back at Claire as though she was awakening from a dream. "Well I'l see you around Claire."
"Yeah, and akte?"
"Yeah?"
"Take care of yourself." Kate nods and walks off.
Claire watches as Jack looks up at Kate and smiles. It was clearly a forced smile that said: Are you ever going to give up on me? Kate fake-smiled back: Are you ever going to forgive me?
Jack's smile disappears and he looks at Juliet then back at Kate shaking his head: We'll see. Kate nods and walks off shrugging: I love you, you know. But Jack had already turned back to Juliet and he never saw the shrug, or heard the body language.
Claire frowned. Poor Kate. Then she retreated into her tent at the sound of her crying infant but before she enter the shelter she looks at up at the sky to see more birds. It'll never work. It was a stupid idea. We're going to be here forever.
