"Just keep moving. We're being followed," Kate whispered.
"What?" Sawyer asked.
"Just keep smiling. There are at least two of them across the river. In about 5 seconds I'm going to turn the tables on them."
Sawyer stopped her." Wait a second."
"You in?"
Sawyer aimed and hit one of the others, the second one was able to escape.
"We have to stop him, he´ll be back soon with a whole army," Kate yelled.
"It´s too late, Kate, he´ s gone," Jack stated.
"And so is our favorite traitor," Sawyer noticed.
Jack, Kate and Hurley looked around. Sawyer was right; Michael had escaped, too.
"We have to go back to camp before they can find us. Now that they know we saw through Michael´s plan we have no chance against them," Jack said.
"What makes you think we ever had a change, genius?" Sawyer asked Jack angrily.
"That's not the time to argue. Jack is right, we have to go," Kate intervened.
The four of them started to make their way back to
camp.
Suddenly they were disturbed by a terrifying noise. They
immediately recognized it, although they hadn't heard it very
often.
"Guys, tell me that isn't that monster thing," Hurley pleaded.
"Sawyer and Hurley you run to the left, me and Kate to the right. Our chances are better when we separate. Run!" Jack ordered.
They did as they were told.
Hurley and Sawyer ran as fast as they could until exhaustion overtook Hurley and he fell to his knees. Cursing, Sawyer went back to pick him up.
"Come on guy, we can have a picnic later."
Hurley stood up panting.
"Dude, I can't hear it anymore. I think it´ s gone."
"You're right. Let's go and see if the Doc and Freckles were as lucky as we."
Kate and Jack ran blindly into the jungle. The monster seemed to have chosen them as his prey and it came nearer and nearer.
They ran through the jungle, the noise coming closer. After a few minutes they reached a place with a cliff to their right. To their left was still jungle, but the trees were standing less close there. They would be easy to catch there and the monster seemed to be a lot faster than they were.
Jack thought feverishly about a way to safe Kate. It didn't matter what would happen to him, but he couldn't bear the thought of losing Kate. His eyes caught some rocks near the cliff and he had an idea. Unnoticed by Kate, who ran further into the jungle, Jack let himself fall back gradually.
