A Life Worth Living
Chapter 1: Accusations
Sawyer ran through the jungle, faster than he ever ran in his life. He took a quick glance at Kate's limp and bloodied body, hardly weighing him down.
"C'mon Freckles, were almost there" Sawyer stated to Kate's unconscious body.
His heart was beating almost as fast as he was running. Sawyer approached the caves, feet slowing down a bit.
"Help!" he screamed "I need some help!"
Some people glanced his way before one went to get Jack. Jack came running from the beach, his medical bag over his shoulder.
"What happened?" Jack asked.
"We were walking in the jungle and I was behind her….there were a couple of shots fired and one hit her…." Sawyer voice trailed off.
Jack examined the bullet wound in Kate's hip.
After a few moments he sighed and asked, "So you were behind her?"
"That's what I said, Doc." Sawyer responded, sitting down next to Jack. "Why does it matter?"
"It matters because she was shot from behind." Jack explained, looking Sawyer straight in the eyes. "Now, let me see your gun."
"What?" Sawyer said standing up, backing slightly away from Jack.
Jack pulled the gun from Sawyer's grip. Opening it, he found it empty.
"Why would you go around with an empty gun, Sawyer?" Jack asked.
"Are you saying that I did this?"
A/N: Sorry that this is a short chapter. I haven't written WIP for a while now, and this is my first SKATE WIP. (Not to mention I wrote it first thing in the morning) Please read and review!
