Down

Tori had led the way out of the forest and along the shoreline. She was walking along the beach, the sand not so hot, the water, not so cold. Jason was practically pulling the other two girls along, they were still half asleep, and the suitcase. He soon caught up with her and the girls he was carrying, walked along on their own.

"So who were you're friends in front of you on the plane?" Jason asked.

"Shane and Hunter." Tori smiled at their names.

"So, no boyfriend?"

"No, you?" Tori smiled.

"I was going to ask Kim out when we got to England but we never made it." Jason laughed once.

"She would've said yes, I know it." Tori reassured him.

"I know, so what was up with your friends, you would think that one guy liked you, the way he was acting." Jason remarked.

"Who, Hunter?"

"The blonde guy?"

"Yeah, he never really liked me that much." Tori replied.

"Are you sure 'cause when I liked someone I treated them like that too, teasing and making fun of them."

"Huh?"

"When a guy likes someone, they show it by making fun of them and teasing and stuff, you didn't know that, most guys stop when they're like sixteen, depending on their maturity." Jason joked.

"Well none of my friends are very mature but I guess I'll never find out now, with them gone and all."

"We don't know they're dead for sure, they could all be alive on this STUPID island, I mean, wouldn't the bodies have floated up on the shore, well, the ones that didn't sink with the plane?" Jason asked logically.

"Hey Jase." Kim yelled.

"Yeah?" He turned around.

Kim was bent over a little flower. She didn't have anything better to do than to enjoy the island so she stopped at the sight of the pink flower. Jason ran back and Aisha ran to catch up with Tori.

Jason bent over beside Kim and admired the flower. She turned to face him and began to talk.

"Isn't it pretty?" She asked.

He plucked it off the stem and put it in her hair. She smiled at him when he smiled at her.

"Now it's even prettier." He answered.

The sun was rising on the side of the island they all male group was sitting. Their eyes gradually opened, well, the ones who weren't already awake. Rocky was seen running back and forth along the shore and Adam was tending to the fire.

"What is he doing bro?" Shane whispered.

"I have no idea." Hunter whispered back.

"He's running, every morning he runs back and forth so when he gets tired he can just fall over and not worry about being miles from home. Since he's stuck on an island, he didn't want to give up his morning ritual." Adam explained as he stared out into the ocean.

"Makes sense." Shane mumbled as he stretched out on the sand then sat up.

"Anyone hungry?" Adam queried.

"Yes." The three guys replied.

"So we should go hunting then, I saw a boar last night." Adam smiled.

"Let the boy scout go with his friend." Shane joked.

"That was the plan." Adam grinned.

Dustin opened his eyes to some of the people swimming in the lagoon. He soon joined them, leaving only Cam and Blake to sleep. Dustin dove under and came up beside Trini. Next to her was Tommy and Billy on the other side of Tommy. They were discussing plans to get the boar Billy heard later that night but thought it best if he left his comrades to sleep.

"So that means we might get food?" Dustin asked.

"Might, no, we will." Tommy replied, confidently.

"Man if you weren't around, we'd all be like giving up." Dustin joked.

"No, just your friends." Trini laughed.

"Yeah, they're not big on the whole hope thing." Billy added.

"I know, but what you going to do?" Dustin asked.

"Let's get them up and hunt that boar." Tommy shouted with pride.

They all cheered and raced back up to the two boys still sleeping. Dustin shook Blake awake then moved on to Cam. They were both scared until they saw it was just Dustin. Everyone explained to them and the group of six was on their way to the shoreline to run after the footprints.

Rocky and Adam had the boar cornered, well, almost. Just a few more steps and they could tackle it. It was worth a try and then they would burn a chuck so it would die. Adam had the torch and was backed up slightly behind Rocky. He solely moved forward, closer to the pig-like creature when the bushes moved and they were surrounded by figures...
