The Martins had left the camp for a walk away from the others. Morgan's pessimistic attitude was causing everyone to get on edge and for his own safety Bess had dragged him off into the darkness.

"Why don't they understand we need to leave here?" Morgan complained.

"Devon's our friend, we can't abandon her." Bess said slowly.

"She'd want us to go on. There is nothing we can do for her. Her only hope is Julia and she has nothing. If we head to New Pacifica we can return for her with help, with proper medical equipment and with doctors who have a clue."

"Julia is doing her best." Bess chastised her husband.

"Which is blatantly not good enough."

"Morgan!"

"I not saying it's her fault. But face it there is nothing she can so. She is out of her depth. We all are."

"Shhh." Bess hissed tugging on her husband's arm.

"What?" Morgan whispered back.

"Do you hear that?" Bess asked in a hushed voice.

"Hear wh... is someone crying?"

"This way." Bess whispered

"Maybe we shouldn't." Morgan hissed as he was dragged along.

As the noise got louder Bess slowed down and the Martin's creeped forward until they could see the cause of the noise. When they saw Julia crumpled on the floor they stood shocked and unable to move. Eventually Morgan opened and closed his mouth a few times pointing towards Julia, but still unable to say anything. Finally Bess turned to Morgan and whispered

"Go back to camp and get Alonzo. But don't tell anyone why. Now!" Obediently Morgan nodded and scurried back to camp as Bess moved towards Julia.

Waiting until she was next to the doctor Bess crouched down and gently placed her hand on Julia's back causing the young medic to flinch.

"Julia, it's Bess. What's wrong?"

Instead of answering, Julia tried to cover her face and wipe away her tears. However, she could not control her emotions and continued to sob. Her inability to stop crying making her more and more upset. Worried by what was making Julia, of all people, so upset, Bess wrapped her arm round the doctor and tried to soothe her. But every word and act of comfort seemed to drive Julia further and further over the edge. Finally, through a breaking, unsteady voice Julia began to apologise.

"My fault. Devon's going to be abandoned, left alone because of me."

"What do you mean?" Bess asked confused.

Julia said something in response but her words were lost in her sobs and Bess could not understand so instead she kept trying to comfort the doctor.

Back at camp Danziger had gone round assembling everyone for a meeting. A meeting that everyone knew was coming, a meeting where everyone knew what would be discussed, but a meeting no one wanted to go to. As he made his way to Alonzo who sat with a MagPro, looking out for danger, he saw Alonzo's normally cheerful and optimistic expression turn to worry.

"Can't we-" The pilot started.

"You know we need to move on Solace." Danziger said grimly as Morgan sprinted towards the pair.

"Alonzo, I need you to come with me." Morgan said panting.

"Martin now's not the time." Danziger growled.

"Yes it is." Morgan said, his voice so certain it surprised Danziger.

"What's going on?" Alonzo questioned.

"I'll tell you, but not here." Morgan said his eyes pleading with Alonzo to come. "It's really important, kinda like a medical emergency." He added stressing the word 'medical' hoping Alonzo would piece things together.

"Wouldn't Julia be a better choice then." Danziger asked suspiciously.

"She's already there." Morgan said carefully.

"Go." Danziger barked. "Be quick." He added not wanting to delay his news for much longer.

As Alonzo hurried after Morgan he asked.

"What's really going on?"

"It's Julia." Morgan explained. "She's lost it."

"Lost it?" Alonzo asked. "What do you mean lost it?"

"Trust me it'll be easier if you see for yourself." Morgan said. "We should hurry." He added as he scampered off, leaving a confused and concerned Alonzo to follow.

"Why are you stopping?" Alonzo asked as he nearly ran into the back of a now stationary Morgan.

"Need to listen....for that. This way." He said running off again.

"Listen for what?" Alonzo questioned as he set off in pursuit of Morgan. Finally Morgan stopped again and pointed towards a bush.

"There." He exclaimed causing Alonzo to suspiciously move towards the bush and peer beyond the foliage.

"Julia?" Alonzo questioned as he saw her shaking body. Looking over Julia's head Bess locked eyes with Alonzo and beckoned him over. When Alonzo was next to Julia Bess removed her arm and backed away from the pair, retreating towards her husband.

"Julia, what's wrong?" Alonzo asked when he felt Julia calming in his arms.

"I failed. I'm meant to help, but I failed."

"You haven't failed. Devon is still alive. We are still alive." Alonzo said, holding Julia tight, as the Martin's disappeared into the shadows.

"Eben isn't." She replied sobbing. "I can't face it anymore. Whenever I leave the tent people look at me with hope, then when they realise what a failure I am that hope turns to despair, all because of me."

"No Julia." Alonzo said tightening his grip on Julia, trying to comfort her, but not knowing what to say. Inwardly cursing his lack of ability to comfort Julia, he rocked her in his arms trying to comfort her, telling her it was not her fault.
