Chapter five:

Hey guys! Here's chapter five! Hope you like it, this chapter is very confusing! Hehehehe, Lol. Thanks for the reviews, keep 'em coming!

Kate's POV

I had only just regained consciousness but I was still lying down. It hurt to move but I'd guessed I'd better get up to see if there was anyway out. I slowly sat up, using only my good arm to support me. But as soon as I sat up, the pain in my ribs was so intense, that my arm gave way and I dropped back onto the cold, hard floor. I gasped for breath because if you have broken ribs, it hurts to breathe. Tears slowly fell from my eyes, not just because of the pain, but because I knew that I would never get out of this alive. Even if someone could find me, it would probably be too late.

I heard footsteps and I turned my head to see who it was. Of course, I didn't expect it to be anyone but Ethan.

"Sleeping Beauty is finally awake!"

I didn't answer but I swallowed hard, wondering what on earth he was going to do to me next.

"What's wrong?" He smiled "Cat got your tongue?"

I didn't answer, just swallowed back tears. Then suddenly, he grabbed my throat and pulled me up, so that not even my feet were touching the ground. I gasped for breath and tried to push him off of me with my good arm.

Unfortunately, my plan didn't succeed and I was left to kicking him as hard as I possibly could. It partly worked, because I had shoes on, I kicked him just below the knee and it took some skin off, making him bleed. He was so surprise, that he dropped me on the ground. It was painful, but I was too busy to scream because I immediately went into a coughing fit.

"Is that all you can do, Kate?"

I didn't answer, so he answered for me.

"Yes, I thought so. Be seeing ya, Kate"

And before he had even left the room, I had blacked out again.

Jacks POV

It was about midday and I was so exhausted, but I dared not stop. If Kate had died before I could reach her and tell her my feelings, I wouldn't be able to live with myself. She wasn't like any woman I've ever met before. She was caring, courageous, and smart and put others before herself, and she was supposed to be a criminal!

Obviously, she had just been in the wrong place at the wrong time, I really did feel sorry for her, because when we did get rescued, all the freedom she had had on this island would be lost forever. And I would probably never see her again, which sent shivers up my spine. So, in a way, I would stay on this island forever, just to be with her.

I still didn't know where to look, there was a lot of jungle on this island. There was absolutely no tracks to say where she had been taken to, except the ones Sawyer and I found earlier that just disappeared into thin air. I would not give up, weather it was to find her alive or, the one word I hated saying since I became a Doctor, dead.

Sawyers POV

I saw Jacks footprints and it looked like he was in a hurry.

'Well, of course he is, he has the hots for Kate! But I know she likes me. Girls like Freckles need a bad boy, not a goody-to-shoe ass of a Doctor.' I thought

I decided to run while I follow his tracks, so I could catch up to him. When I thought he was about fifteen minutes in front of me, I slowed down to a walk.

Kate's POV

I had yet again; woken up with the most pain I had ever inherited. I groaned and rolled over on my side. I opened my eyes and my eyes greeted me with blurry vision. I blinked a few times and when that didn't work, I started to rub my eyes. I opened them again, but my eyes weren't any different.

"What's wrong with me?" I asked myself, weakly.

"Kate!" I heard someone shout my name and run towards me.

I didn't know who it was, but they picked me up and carried me outside.

"Who is this?" I asked the person, but it was no more than a whisper.

"Jack. Kate, are you ok?"

But I hadn't time to answer Jacks question as I had, yet again, passed out, but this time, in Jacks arms.

When I woke up, I was thankfully, still in his arms.

"How long was I out for?"

"An hour"

"Jack, are you ok?"

"Yes. Why do you ask, Kate?"

"Well, you just seem…distant"

"Kate, you've just spent three days being tortured, Ethan's done god knows what to you, and you're asking me if I'm ok? Your mind is just playing tricks on you"

"Are you sure you're not freaked out from what he's done to me?"

"Don't get me wrong, Kate. I would never want anything bad to happen to you, but yes, it does freak me out a little"

"Oh" A tear leaked from my eye.

"Don't be like that, Kate"

"Jack, be honest with me, what were you like when you found out I was gone?"

"Well, to tell you the truth, I thought you were just seeking attention"

"What? Jack, how could you say that? I would never do that!"

He suddenly dropped me and I cried out in pain.

"Kate, you're a whore who seeks nothing but attention! That's what everybody thinks of you!"

I started crying.

"Now that's not fair! I be honest and you cry!"

He kicked me and ran away, while I slowly cried myself to sleep.
