Just one month after discovering Kate's dead body in the woods, Scotty had moved them both to another part of the island; one where they would be safer. It had turned out to very true, however Lilly's health once again took a turn for the worst, but this time she could harely stand or sit up.
It now made Scotty start to build the raft, he had. Lilly was in dire need of medical attention, and couldn't risk dying here. While he was building it, he had wondered if she would even survive being out in the middle of the ocean. To him losing her would indeed break him to no end, but he knew by leaving it would be for the best.
However, as he now came into the hut, he gently scooped up Lilly into his arms. While carrying her through a path, she breathed out," Where are you taking me?"
" Someplace nice, you wanted go someplace romantic?", he asked," I found something that might be just as good."
Scotty then cleared the path,before the two heard the sound a waterfall. Lilly opened her eyes, seeing just how beautiful it was, deep inside it saddened her. Her life was slipping away, and couldn't do a thing about it, " I wish that there were both in the water, I just don't have the energy to stand up."
He sighed softly, before noticing that they needed to head back. Once back at camp, Lilly was breathing heavily while Scotty gently blotted her forehead," Shh, it's alright Lil. I'm working hard on our raft, we're going to get off this island."
During the night, he awoke upon hearing a rustling sound, before lighting a torch. That's where he spotted a man running away, as Scotty followed from behind. He knew that this had to be the killer, but had no idea why he was here. Kate once had said that this was the one part of the island that he never would go to, was she mistaken?
That's when the person disappeared, before Scotty had discovered a cave. Inside a man was sitting there, holding onto a very sickly looking woman," Your friend is sick too, with this disease. Kate tried to help but what she did made everything worsen. For awhile I thought that she was getting better, but now it's too late."
Scotty knew that he couldn't let Lilly die," What if it takes awhile for that stuff to work?"
" No, Kate basically worsened the disease. Your friend's going to die no matter what, it's too late to escape. Her heart is going to stop beating soon."
That was something that Scotty refused to believe," I can save her, I promised that I wouldn't let her die," as he stormed off looking for the rest of the stuff that he saw Kate once burying. However the man quickly caught up to him," There is no more, you don't understand that Kate was lying, She lied about everything, because she was working for him."
" Why should I even believe you?", asked Scotty," Kate took care of Lil, protected her. She wasn't working for him, she was trying to save the woman that I love. I'm going find the cure, and save her,"
just the man now pushed him down, and began choking him, while Scotty struggled to breathe. He had to find a way to save Lilly, but it was the killer that needed to be stopped. However as the man backed away, Scotty coughed loudly, " Stop him; the killer!"
" You still don't get it, you can't stop him. Nobody has or will this is his island!"
Clearly this man had been on this island way too long, but Scotty wasn't about to listen to him. Instead he got up and walked back, wanting to check on Lilly. Upon coming back, she was breathing a bit heavily, while holding out her hand," I just want to go home, "whispered weakily," I can't die here."
" I know Lil," he whispered," I'm going everything to get us both off."
Lilly was looking even sicker now, feeling sadder that she'll never get a chance to be able to have a baby. She wanted to so much," What if we tried, for one now?"
" No, you're body's too weak for that," as a tear now rolled out of her eyes," I know Lil, but right now you need to leave all the worrying up to me. We need to get off this island, and get rescued. What if it's something that the doctors could cure? "
She shook her head no, " It's not, Kate told me that without the cure it's uncurable."
" What if it's buried somewhere on this island, and I could find it and give it to you," wanting so much to desperatly save her," Let me find out, get you better."
" It's too late Scotty," Lilly whispered," I'm dying, I feel it. I just want to be with you before I die."
Just three weeks later, the raft was completed as Scotty began paddling away; while Lilly lay inside silently wishing that she was pregnant inside of being sick. It would have been better, and quite possibly romantic, yet now her wish however only remained just that.
She feared that Scotty would lose it big time, once she had died. By all means, Lilly could understand completely but wanted him to be able to go home again. However once Scotty had gotten to a certain point, he let the current push the raft along, as he leaned over guiding the bottle of water up to her lips.
Lilly drank down a little more this time, which to Scotty was a good sign," Are you hungry?"
" A little, I'm sick of eating just banannas and fruit."
He chuckled," Me too Lil, been craving for a cheesesteak," getting a small smile out of her," Once you're better we'll work on having that baby, " that's when a bad storm began blowing in as Scotty scrambled to get away, little did they know that they would once again land back up on the island, in a far worse situation than before.
