What was wrong with this guy? Shanna had to admit he was funny, but come on. This wasn't the time to joke around. Didn't he realize that both of their lives were on the line? If they wanted to survive out here, they'd have to work together and they'd have to work hard. If they didn't, they'd most probably die. That was just the way it is. She wasn't going to make things prettier than they were. This meant that it wasn't really appropriate to laugh all the time. But, even though he was irritating, she wasn't going to abandon him. 'Do you think you can stand?'

Toby frowned. 'I don't think so. Even tilting my head makes me dizzy, so I doubt my body would appreciate it if I moved so much.' He chuckled. This time it was Shanna's turn to frown. That didn't sound good.

'Here, let me see your head.' She demanded. Toby looked surprised, but willingly obeyed.

'Why?' He asked, while Shanna was carefully ruffling through his hair. 'What are you doing?'

'Your symptoms don't match up with your injuries. You could have a concussion.' She sighed when she found what she found for. A pretty big bump at the back of the man's head. 'Yup, you probably have a concussion.'

'Oww, that's not good at all, is it?' Toby asked, smiling. Shanna rolled her eyes.

'Good guess, Sherlock.' She answered sarcastically. The mood of this man was seriously indestructible. 'You can lay your head down now.'

Toby blinked a couple of times for obeying. 'Right.'

'You should get some more rest. Your head needs it.' Shanna commanded.

'But I don't wanna rest!' He pouted. Shanna sighed. Here it goes again.

'If you don't want to make your situation even worse than it already is, you really should rest.' She argued. Toby didn't look convinced. 'Please. You're of no use dead.' She added softly.

Toby looked pretty startled at this prospect. His eyes widened and his breath quickened. Shanna's expression softened. 'Sorry. I didn't mean to sound so harsh. I'm sure you'll be fine.'

Toby's eyes narrowed. He didn't seem reassured at all, but he did agree. 'On one condition.' Shanna motioned for him to continue. 'I'll get some rest, if you take your jacket back.' He looked at her with a determent look in his eyes. It was clear he wasn't going to back off. Shanna's eyebrows rose sky-high. She didn't expect that.

'Erm, sure…' She blushed when he pulled of his head and she pulled her jacket out from under it. 'You should have something under it though. Here I'll empty your backpack.' Toby shot her a smile when she put the folded backpack under his head and put her own jacket on. Her muscles visibly relaxed when she finally got some warmth in the cold, unheated cabin. 'Ah, that's better.'

'I thought so. I'm always right.' Toby answered. Shanna smiled at him. After some time, she shifted her gaze from the also smiling man to the stuff that'd come out of Toby's backpack.

'Let's see what we've got, shall we?' Slowly, Toby's eyes dropped close while Shanna was examining the stuff. There were some useful items, like a breadbox with bread in it, a bottle of water and a pocketknife. Most of it was either useless or too damaged by the fall to be of some use though. Shanna sighed. It seemed like they were going to have a rough time.

Gabe and Joy arrived at the police station not long after their introductions. The place turned out to be not as quiet Gabe had initially thought, and far busier than that Joy had suspected. Cops were running around everywhere, calling, typing on computers and doing more stuff that the young man and woman couldn't see. They walked up to a cop who seemed slightly less stressed than they other ones.

'Hello?' Gabe asked, and the man looked up from his computer screen.

'Yes, what do you want?' The man asked sharply. Gabe felt the need to back off from the stern aura that the man was sending out, but he restrained himself.

'Look, I understand you are very busy at the moment, but you have to listen to me.' He paused for a second, and the man impatiently motioned for him to continue. 'There are at least two persons that we know of up Mountain Teresgray, and maybe even more. You have to send a helicopter or something up there to pick them up.' He urged. The man looked up at him skeptically.

'We will take it into consideration.' He answered. 'Now, if you'll please excuse me, I have work to do.' He motioned for them to walk out of the door, but Gabe didn't back off that easy.

'You don't understand! You have to send someone up there now! They could be dying!' But his words didn't have much impact on the man. He only absentmindedly nodded, his eyes fixed on his computer screen again. Gabe didn't have time to say anything more before two cops already walked up to them and started ushering him and Joy out of the building, saying that they really didn't have time for them right now. Once out of the building the cops walked back inside, leaving Gabe and Joy on their own with their failure.

Gabe shouted out in frustration, angry at the cops, at God, at the world. Joy glided down on the wet ground in the park they were standing in, back in tears again. After some time, Gabe pointed his frustration on Joy.

'Great plan, going to the station! It really made much of a difference huh?' He shouted at her. Immediately after he said the words he regretted them, seeing even more tears forming in the girl's eyes. 'Sorry. I didn't mean it like that.' He apologized. Joy shook her head in denial.

'No, you were right. It was a stupid plan, and now no-one is going to help Toby and Shanna.' She said, tears still streaming down her face. She looked down at the ground. 'There gonna die out there, all alone.'

Concern filled Gabe, looking at the sobbing girl in front of him. The concern for Toby wasn't alone anymore. Now it was accompanied by concern for Shanna, and Joy too. Even though he had just met the girl. It was crazy; he didn't even have her number. Slowly, he glided down next to her and hugged her. 'Shhh, it's all gonna be okay. Don't worry. We're gonna get them out of there, all in one piece. It's all gonna be okay. Shhh.' After a couple of minutes he helped her up and slowly walked back the way they'd first come. It didn't seem like Joy noticed much of it and she willingly followed Gabe. After a couple of minutes Gabe recognized some things and started to lead her to the house he and Toby had rented.

'Where are we?' Joy asked after he had sat her down on the couch.

'We're in Toby's and my cottage. I didn't want to leave you alone, in the state you were in.' He explained, while walking to the kitchen. Joy cracked a smile at him.

'Thanks.' She said with a weak voice. Gabe smiled back.

'You're welcome. Now, do you want some hot chocolate?'
