Chapter 11

"Kona, Kona!!!" Alex yelled, out of breath from the running "They've…they've escape. Ford and Austen. I don't know how, I went to check in on them and….they're gone."

Kona looked up at Alex "What?! How?"

"I..I don't know."

"I want you to tell the others and I want them to look for them, they can't be far. Being on a different island makes it more harder for them to escape."

Alex quickly nodded and turned to exit.

"And Alex?" Alex paused and slowly turned around.

"Don't tell Ben about this, I don't want him to know that they've escaped."

"Of course." She turned to leave and walked towards the room where they kept the monitors. She looked up at one of the screens and could see Kate and Sawyer running away, they already near the beach. Removing all the evidence on how they escaped, she ejected the surveillance tape and took it out of the machine and pulled the film out of it, destroying it. She quickly shoved the videotape remains in her bag and walked out the room. Her hand went into her bag for the second time and she pulled out a walkie talkie. "Kaleb? Are you there?"

xoxoxox

Sawyer and Kate finally reached the beach and were frantically looking for the canoe. They didn't see the Kaleb sneaking up behind them with his gun aiming at them.

"Kaleb? Are you there?" Alex's voice echoed from the walkie talkie Kaleb had with him.

Sawyer and Kate swiftly turned around alarmed by the voice.

"Why hello there." Said Kaleb, his gun still aiming at them. "Why don't you stop looking for whatever you're looking for?"

"No." Sawyer reached behind his back and rapidly pulled out his gun and shot Kaleb in the leg. Kaleb fell to his knees and Sawyer took that moment to run and grabbed Kate with him running along the beach.

"Sawyer, I see it! I see the boat!" Kate shouted and pulled away from Sawyer's grasp and ran towards the canoe. Kate pulled the palm leaves away and started to shove the canoe into the water with Sawyer's help.

A gunshot was heard. Sawyer looked up and saw Kaleb limping towards them. He turned towards Kate and her body was on the ground, blood was coming from her right thigh. Sawyer whipped his gun from his back pocket and shot Kaleb without any hesitation. This time the bullet hit right into Kaleb's upper body and he fell to the ground, presumably dead.

"That's for shootin' Kate." He said in a low angry voice. He slowly turned his back on it and saw Kate's limb body. He hurried up to her, "Kate, Freckles? Come on baby, can you hear me?"

Kate eyes flickered open "Sawyer." She hoarsely whispered.

"Stay with me. Kate, you have to stay with me ok? You are going to be ok. We're going home and Jack will fix you up all nicely and you'll be climbing trees in no time." Kate smiled at his last words. Gently Sawyer lifted Kate into his arms and softly placed her into the canoe, making sure he didn't hurt her when he placed her in the canoe.

Sawyer pushed the canoe towards the sea and jumped into the canoe and quickly grabbed onto an oar and started to paddle away from the island towards theirs.

"Kate. I need you to talk to me. I need you to be awake, can you do that?."

"Ok." She whispered.

"Good.Well why don't we talk about our likes and dislikes. Think of it as a way to get to know each other."

"I hate the Others."

"I for one agree with you there. Once we got you fixed, we're gonna get our revenge." He muttered, he paused thinking for a moment. "I like reading." He said trying to change the topic.

"Like I didn't already know that." She paused, she was breathing heavily. "And right now I hate my leg." She said softly. Sawyer looked down at Kate's bullet wound, it was bad, more blood was coming out. "It's bad isn't it?" Kate's voice startled Sawyer. She tried to sit up but was too weak.

"No, not at all." He lied "I'm just going to use my shirt to stop the bleeding ok?" Kate nodded and Sawyer took of his shirt and carefully wrapped it around Kate's thigh, he realised she was losing a lot of blood and with no hospitals around…he didn't even want to think about it, he would get to it if they go there. "We're not far away now, we're near our island and I'll just need to go around it to get to our camp. Just hold on ok?"

"Yeah."

Sawyer carried on paddling towards their island. Now he was paddling as much force as he could. He needed to get Kate examined at, he was no doctor. For once since he crashed on the island he was thankful that Jack was on the island. He wouldn't know what to do if Jack wasn't there.

Two hours later Sawyer managed steer around the island and was nearly at the beach. He didn't hear much from Kate because he was so concentrated on getting her help. He looked down at Kate. Damn, I was suppose to keep her awake. She appeared to be sleeping.

"Freckles." He whispered, Kate didn't move. "Freckles, come on wake up." Still no answer. "Kate, come on wake up for me. Kate." He sounded more urgent and shook her, and their was still no response. "Kate! Now's not the time to be sleeping. You gotta wake up. Don't make me throw a banana at you." He joked hoping it will wake Kate up from her deep sleep. Sawyer stopped paddling and dropped the oar beside him. He slowly brought his hand to Kate hand. "Please, no." he whispered with much sadness. He tried to feel a pulse. He couldn't find one. He felt for her neck and he couldn't find one there either. "Kate! Please, don't leave me. You gotta fight." He cried with much desperation "I'll do anything, just say something, anything. Please. Kate, don't leave me. I-I love you. Just say something." He brought her up to him and pulled Kate towards him, embracing her. For the first time since his parents died, he cried. He cried because he was losing someone he loved all over again.
