The sun was barely coming up over the horizon which made that time around six o'clock in the morning but no one really knew what the time was anymore while they were on the island. The passage of days was getting harder to tell since the hatch blew up but Jack had taken a few things from the others that helped them tell that it had been at least five years since the plane crash. Life on the island had been very eventful even up until this day. The waves were slowly moving in and out from the shore as most of the survivors slept. Because they were asleep, the survivors did not even notice something coming towards the island over the horizon.

"Mommy…" a little boy was shaking Claire awake and her eyes flew open.

"Yes, Aaron?" she asked with a yawn.

"I think I see something on the ocean."

She gave her five year old son a smile and let out a quiet laugh. He was always playing games like this, saying that he say something on the horizon. He once told Jack and the whole island was thrown into massive chaos. A few people threatened to smack the boy for making up that there was nothing there. That was when Claire told Aaron when he was going to play these games he should only play them with her and Charlie.

"You do? What is it this time?"

"No, mum! I really do!"

She smiled and she saw Charlie open his eyes and glance over at Aaron.

"What's the matter, mate?" he asked the boy.

"I saw something!"

"Again?"

"For real!"

Charlie gave the boy a grin and leaned over and messed with his blonde hair. "Sure, Aaron."

"I did! I did!" Aaron ran out of the hut.

After the first year of living on the island, the survivors of Oceanic 815 decided to build huts to live in. Charlie and Claire became close and decided to live in a hut together. A month after that, Claire had figured out that she was pregnant again. She ended up having twins and they had to find some way to add another room on to their hut to make room for the two new children.

Claire let out a sigh. "I'll go see what is going on with him."

"If you want, I could do that instead, love."

"Don't worry about it, Charlie. I should see if Rebekah and Noah are still asleep anyway." Claire slid out of the makeshift bed the two slept in, revealing a pregnant stomach.

She slipped into the other room of the small hut and saw the two three year olds still sleeping. She gave a relieved sigh because she knew that Aaron would get up and sometimes wake his brother and sister. She gave Charlie a nod that meant the two were still asleep and she went outside of the hut. Aaron was nowhere in sight and this started to worry Claire. What if something happened to him?

"Everything alright, Claire?" she head someone ask from behind her and she turned to see Jack standing there.

"Aaron is playing his games again. He woke me up, saying that he saw something again and then took off when Charlie and I tried to play along."

Jack put his hand on his chin and looked thoughtful for the moment. "He might have ran off to get Sydney."

"Will you help me?"

Jack nodded and the two of them headed over to the hut that was Kate's. Kate lived in one of the huts almost in the jungle. She lived with her daughter Sydney, who she had named after the place where the plane had came from. No one knew who the father of the girl was, not even Kate. She came with Jack back, after escaping from the others. A few months later she started to show that she was pregnant.

"Kate," Jack called and it took a few minutes but soon the woman appeared.

"What do you want, Jack?"

"Aaron says that he saw something and we all know that Sydney is like his partner in crime. We came to see if he came here."

Kate looked at Claire and gave her a smile. She walked back into the hut for a moment and then reappeared, face pale. "I think he might have."

Claire spun around on her heel. "AARON!" she started calling out for the young boy.

Jack looked down the beach and saw two small figures walking down to the ocean. He smiled a little. "Claire, I think that they are right down there."

Claire started down to where Jack was pointing and Kate took off running. Claire wanted to run but she was pregnant and Jack had already advised her to take it easy. He walked down with Claire and they arrive a few minutes after Kate had. Kate already pulled Sydney away and was telling her that she shouldn't have scared her like that.

"Sydney believes me!" Aaron declared.

"Aaron, you shouldn't do this…we are going to have to talk about when it is time to play games and when it isn't," Claire said, getting down on her knees so that she could look the five year old in the eye.

"Something out there!" Five year old Sydney said, pointing her finger out at the ocean.

Jack messed with the girl's dark brown curls and then looked out at the ocean. "I don't see…wait a minute…"

"What is it?" Kate asked Jack, standing up so that she was beside him.

"Boat," Aaron said with a grin.

Claire stood up and went beside the other two adults as they stared out at the ocean.

"There really is something there," Kate said, voice full of disbelief.

"Claire…" Jack started.

"Yes?"

"Tell Charlie there is a boat and make sure that he tells Hurley."

"But Hurley will…"

"Exactly."

Claire nodded and started up the beach to where her hut was. She noticed that Charlie had fallen back to sleep after she left and she let out a laugh at how quick that happened. She planted a kiss on his cheek and his eyes opened.

"Yes?" he asked.

"Aaron saw a boat."

"Claire…"

"This time it is true."

Charlie jumped out of bed and grinned. "I can't believe it!"

"Jack wants you to tell Hurley."

Charlie took off down the beach without a shirt on, looking like a madman. He started to shout as he kept on running that it made Kate and Jack look up at him and laugh. Claire picked up her two children from their makeshift bed.

An hour passed and the boat had sent a life boat out the island to see what was going on there. A man had said that a man with a boy came and told them about this island. The two had been on a boat and came to Sydney. It had taken them two years to actually get there because they had to stop for the rainy season on some island and they set off again.

"So, how long have all of you been here?"

"Five years," Jack said.

"What took you so long?" Charlie asked.

"Do you know how hard it is to find an island like this?" the man spat.

"Could have sent a plane," Hurley said.

The man smirked. "That would have worked but we thought you had enough of them. We spent two and a half years trying to locate you and then we spent the other half sailing around for you. We were about to give up and on this last journey, we found you."

"How long will it take us to get back to civilization?" Jack asked.

"A little over a week to sail to Fiji and then we are actually going to put you on a plane that will fly you back to Sydney." The man looked around the group and gave them a smile. "Are all of you ready to go back home? If you are, pack up because we're leaving at noon."

The was rushing about as many of the survivors found items that they wanted to take back with them to real civilization. Kate stood there and let out a sigh, not running off like the others in her group to gather her things.

"Kate…what is it?" Jack asked her.

"They are going to arrest me when we get back."

"No they won't."

"Jack, I'm sure that they will."

"Kate…"

"Will you take her if they do?"

"Sydney?"

"Yeah, I know that she likes you and I think that you would be well suited to take care of her."

"I don't…"

"Please?"

"Fine…I'll do it for you."

"Thank you so much, Jack!" She threw her arms around his neck and he awkwardly put his arms around her, returning the hug. "You don't know how much this means to me!" She let him go and went to get her few things.

At noon, they loaded the boat up with all those who had been on the island. They looked back at the place they had called their home for all that time. They knew that this might as well be the last time they would look at the island. The boat set sail and they headed in the direction of Fiji so that they could get the survivors there and onto a plane to get them to Sydney. They were finally getting to go home for once and for all.

A/N: I will try and get another chapter up soon. I hoped that you enjoyed the chapter! You'll get to see what happened to the survivors.
