Chapter six:

Hey guys! This is a quick update, I know, but I just had way too much time on my hands! Anyway, sorry that chapter was sooooo confusing, but you won't find out what happened until a couple of chapters after this, sorry! Thanks for the four reviews I got! Where are the rest of you? Lol!

Jacks POV

I heard someone sobbing quietly and abruptly stop. It actually sounded like Kate, even though I've never heard her cry before. I raced towards where the sound had once been and stopped. Behind some trees and bushes, I saw her. Kate. I ran, calling her name as I went.

"Kate! Kate!"

I couldn't tell if she was unconscious or just sleeping, but she didn't look like she was in a good state. She had blood on her face and she looked like she was having trouble breathing.

I finally reached her and I bent down and started gently shaking her awake.

"Kate! Kate!" I yelled again.

A faint groan escaped her mouth and she opened her eyes.

"Who…" She started

"It's me, Jack" I interrupted.

She sat up so fast and had a look of fear planted on her face.

"What's wrong, Kate?" I asked, confused and concerned.

"Get away from me!"

She got up, I could see how much pain she was in, and started running as fast as she possibly could.

"Kate!"

She didn't reply, didn't look back, she just kept running as if I were dangerous.

I ran after her, she wasn't that fast because of her injuries, so when I caught up to her, I was able to grab her shoulder.

"Get off of me!" She yelled again, tears streaming down her face.

"What's gotten into you, Kate?" I asked, totally bewithered.

She tried to struggle but she only ended up hurting herself and she cried out in pain, sinking to the ground, clutching her rib cage.

"Kate!" I yelled, going down with her.

She was shivering and she was also blue from top to bottom, and it wasn't even that cold, but I supposed it was just from shock.

"Kate, you're freezing!" I said, looking at her shivering form.

I had packed a jacket, just in case, so I got it out of my backpack and covered her with it.

'What did he do to you?' I thought, angrily.

By now, Kate was too ill and injured to put up a fight, which suited me just fine. I picked up my back, placed it on my back, then picked up Kate and started walking back towards the beach.

I had to hurry, but I couldn't run because I might damage her body more than that bastard, Ethan, did.

But I don't know why she was afraid of me, she wasn't afraid of me before she was kidnapped. Sure, she was angry with me, but she was never afraid of me. I turned my full attention onto getting back to the beach.

Sawyers POV

I had now been two days out here and I was getting tired of trying to find her. And I hadn't seen hair nor hide of Jackass.

"To hell with this" I whispered to myself and turned back into the direction I had just come.

"Jackass maybe the hero, but he won't get the girl. She'll come around"

Kate's POV

I didn't understand, one minute he was being mean to me and even abusing me, next he is worried about me. It has to be some kind of sick trick, or possibly a nightmare. My body hurts so much and I am freezing, but I couldn't fend for myself even if I wanted to.

Jack came near me and took something out of his bag. It was a gun.

"Please! Don't hurt me! I'll do whatever you want!" I cried, fresh tears sliding down my face.

He looked at me, then the gun, and dropped it.

"Kate, how could I ever hurt you? How could you say that? That was just incase Ethan came back for a surprise visit" He said.

"Ethan! Where?" I asked, sitting up fast and looking around.

After ten minutes, he had convinced me that Ethan was nowhere to be seen, but I didn't know if he was telling the truth, after all, he had kicked me.

I was now lying back down; he touched the side if my face and I shivered in fear.

"Kate, what's wrong with you? Why are you so afraid of me?"

I knew what his trick was now, he was going to act like he hadn't even done anything and when I fell for it, and he was going to start to abuse me again. He had another thing coming though; I wasn't going to fall for it.

Sorry, it was a bit shorter than usual, I'll try and make it longer for you all. So, are we all confused now! Lol, anyway, keep reviewing!
