Lars' POV
Lars Karlsson just got out of the elevator that he sees the hurricane Shima Ko passing right in front of him to head upstairs. After her,Alicia appears,walking while lost in her thought... and her sadness. Lars goes to talk to her.
" You anger Shima ? " He asks jokingly.
" No... Yes... I don't know... "
" Well just give her time,whatever that is. I surely know that you can't mess with her whenever you want. Leave her alone for this morning,okay ? "
" Yes. Thanks,Lars. "
" Well... Now that we are ensam,could you explain me the cause of this ? "
" I prefer to forget all about it... "
" This is your chance to forget : here's Ryan. "
Indeed,Ryan comes out of the stairs,carrying his survival bag with a gun.
" Going somewhere ? " Lars asks with his strong norwegian accent.
" I... I will get out. To help the group... "
" ...Or you get out to forget about Melissa. "
Ryan,ashamed,doesn't dare to look at her. " Yes. " He responds,in a sad tone.
" Listen... " Lars continues. " We can sort something out. Come with... "
" I insist. If she feels right with Johnny... It's better than I leave for one day. Just one day. After I will return as if nothing happened. "
" Ryan,vänligen ! Stay one more day... "
" No. I can't affort to stay anymore after what happened. "
" What happened ? "
" Two hours ago,I swear I heard Alicia and Johnny... " Ryan stops,traumatised by what he's gonna. His face is mixed with anger and sadness and he nearly sobs. " Making out. "
" Oh shit... "
" She is officially with that jerk... I don't think she deserves me. "
" Ryan... Are you sure ? " Alicia finally asks,armscrossed.
" Yes. Now I must leave. Goodbye. " As he says that,he bows down before to open the door and leave the hotel... temporary. After his departure,a short silence erupts before Karlsson reacts.
" I hope I'm making a good decision by letting him leave. "
A hour and half later...
11 : 10 AM
Lars Karlsson is watching to the window when Melissa is coming to his encounter.
" Did you see anyone ? "
" Nope. " She could feel by that single answer the unusual anger of Lars.
" You sure you're okay ? "
" Yep. And what abot your boyfriend ? "
" I'm sorry I bailed Ryan like a piece of shit,but... Me and John are very hapmy together. "
" If you say so. I'll get a drink. You,watch the entrance. " Lars prepares himself to head to the kitchen. When Hans bursts out of the stairs.
" I'm going to hunt some animals. If anyone's interested,be my guest. I don't care. "
" Will we be fishing ? " Lars,experimented,asks.
" If we find some deep water,yes. "
" Then I'm in. Lemme get my grej ! "
Two hours later...
1 : 10 PM
Lars Karlsson is fishing onto a little lake in the huge forest recently made due to the lack of humanity. Meanwhile Hans is setting the bear traps.
" I suppose you don't know why it's called a bear trap ? " The old man asks suddenly.
" No. " Lars answers without losing the fish rod from his sight.
" Simple : it has been created to catch bear ! My jokes suck. " He admits,pissed.
" Don't worry. It was decent... I got him. " And without any difficulty,Lars pulls the fishing rod and brings the fish to earth.
" You're pretty strong. " Hans compliments sincerely.
" My mom said that it's because of my dad's genes. How do you handle your traps ? "
" I just set the last one. " The old man stands back up and goes to sit onto the ground,his back against the tree.
" So... What do you have to say,old man ? "
" Let me sleep. " The german puts on a leather hat and simulates sleeping.
" As you wish... " The younger boy grabs the fish to drop it into an old metal bucket. " The first time I fished a fish... I was in Norway. I was with my uncle and my brothers. We were waiting for a big fish to bite. After waiting for två timmar,I sensed one grab my string. Naturally I pulled it back but suddenly... it was like a huge wind... more like an orkan... anyway the fish quickly ran away. In consequence,our boat had been brought at the same time as the string. We knew directly it was our lucky day.
So we kept racing for a minute until the fish got... trött and immediately stopped. That was my chance. I pulled the string back and at the end,all of us brought the big fish back into the boat. It was the biggest fish I ever saw in the books. It was like... like the height of a very large katana... or like the piece of wood the scottishs throw in their games. Anyway,when we came back home,we did the biggest feast we ever had this month. Sorry you didn't understand properly the story because of my english issues but... "
Suddenly he stops talking when he notices Hans has been literally sleeping since the beginning. Karlsson gives up and goes to grab the bucket. Suddenly,a few feet away behind Hans,he finds a young man... trapped into Hans' trap. Precisely his left leg is trapped. Lars doesn't waste time and runs to save him,despite he dropped the bucket and let the fish go to the floor.
Lars reaches him and asks him to calm down. He uses his super bare hands to open the bear trap in five seconds only. When the saved man pulls his bloody leg out and stares at him,he suddenly yells.
" MECREANT ! "
And just after that,he gets knocked out to the back of the head by who-knows-who. Before to lose consciousness,he manages to perceive another man who seems to know well the man from earlier. Both grab his forearms to tie them up with a solid rope. Then,after that,he loses consciousness.
