"Okay, Locke now you are going to take me to the hatch." Said Sayid firmly.
"What, I already took you there, the plane…" replied Locke. Sayid cut him off.
"No more lies Locke, you are going to take me to the hatch." Sayid's gaze piercing into Locke's own gaze. Locke stared back at Sayid for a period of time before backing down. He had been discovered. It was time, and if they weren't ready…he wasn't going to think about that right now.
"Ok Sayid, lets get one thing straight the hatch, we…Boone and I found this while looking for Claire, we can't open it, so is there really any reason to see it?" asked Locke standing up.
"Locke, if you ever want to be excepted like you once were you will show me the hatch without question." Said Sayid crossing his arms.
" No one will except me the same way Sayid, you and I both know that." Replied Locke, who turned around to lead Sayid the way to the hatch.

Shannon sat near the campfire, her tear stained face was emotionless as she stared into the fire. No one came to be near her and it didn't bother her. She was too consumed by her anger and pain. Out of the corner of her eye she saw Sayid talking to Kate. Then he left and went out into the jungle. She didn't know what to think of Sayid anymore. Her heart ached for him, she missed him. But he betrayed her. He was supposed to do something but he didn't so she had done something. Then he stopped her. She was slightly relieved that she had missed Locke and that Sayid had stopped her. But she was mad, he made her look like a fool and insane. She was supposed to avenge Boone's death and no one was on her side. The truth was that she was embarrassed and she couldn't face Sayid because of it. She knew she was wrong. She lost all trust for Jack. He said Locke was a Liar. A liar. He should die. Charlie was sitting with Claire and Sawyer. Sawyer was reading to the baby and they all looked happy. How she envied them. Somebody dies and one day ago so they do nothing except smile like a bunch of damn idiots. Nothing good was happening so why are they smiling? She had half the mind to walk up to them and smack that silly grin off their faces. She rapidly turned her head so she wouldn't have to look at them. She then saw Jack. He started to approach. Oh shit, thought Shannon who tried looking the other way. Too late, Jack sat down next to her.
"How are you feeling? Asked Jack in a concerned voice. Shannon didn't reply, instead she turned her head around so she wasn't facing Jack. In doing so she met Kate's eyes. Kat looked somewhat jealous of Shannon because she was receiving Jack's attention and sympathy. Kate looked away. Shannon turned back to Jack, who was still looking at her.
"Jack you don't have to play Mr. Psychiatrist." Said Shannon.
"You have been through a lot Shannon, don't you think you should talk about it?"
"Hell yeah, I have been through a lot, but no one gives a crap, so why the change of heart Jack, huh?" replied Shannon sarcastically.
"No one should have to be alone or ever lose a family member." Said Jack his brown eyes burning into hers.
"How would you know anything about that Jack? You think you know but you don't. Leave me alone, you lied to me about Locke!" cried Shannon. Jack sat their motionless. Shannon glared at him and shoved him. Jack stumbled losing his balance and stood up. Shannon then began crying once more except not for Boone but for herself. Jack stood up and laid a comforting hand on her shoulder. She knocked it off reluctantly and yelled at him to leave. By now many people were watching them. Jack then started to walk away but turned around in mid track.
"Shannon, for you information, I can relate, I lost my father." Said Jack and turned back around heading towards Kate. Shannon breathed, she humiliated herself again, couldn't she get anything right.
She cleared her throat, "Jack, aren't you going to tie me up? Just like you did Jin, because I almost killed Locke!" she yelled back at him. Jack froze in his tracks it felt like someone had stabbed him. He looked up at Kate who was in front of him. He slowly turned around towards Shannon.
"No. You have a lot to sort out and a lot you have lost, I think that is enough." Said Jack confidently but more silently than he had wanted. Then he walked toward Kate and sat down next to her. Shannon's blue eyes filled up with water, and her mouth started to twitch and she through her head in her arms sobbing again.
Kate looked at Jack who seemed deep in thought. She handed him a water bottle. He took the bottle and laid it down next to him. "Jack?" Kate said. He looked at her. "You are the most strong, kind, thoughtful, courageous person I know. You were just trying to help. Don't take it personally." Said Kate.
"Wow, thanks for the compliments they mean a lot coming from an escaped convict. Sorry about that. That is really nice Kate but I am not what you think." Said Jack picking the water bottle up in his hands.
"Yes you are." Said Kate resting a hand on Jack's shoulder. Jack noticed how nice and caring Kate was acting.
"Kate thanks for the support but you are acting awfully nice." Smiled Jack. Kate smiled, she started to blush. Jack was wondering why she was acting so strange. Did she like him, or more than like him? She started to laugh. Then Jack started to laugh. Seeing her brown curls dance around her face, her bluish greenish eyes sparkle, her cute smile and her little nose.
"What is so funny?" laughed Jack. Kate didn't respond her face just got redder. Suddenly Jack grew serious and looked at his water bottle which he was about to drink. He tilted it toward Kate, "You didn't spike my water, did you?"
Kate laughed, "No Jack, I did not spike your water." When they calmed down from their laughing Jack took a sip of his water bottle. Kate's bluish greenish eyes glittered in the firelight.
"So what was so funny?" asked Jack.
"You really want to know." Teased Kate, raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah!" said Jack looking into Kate's eyes.
"Your flies open!" giggled Kate. Jack grew a nervous look and rapidly looked down at his pants. Kate exploded with laughter. Jack's nervousness was replaced by relief when he saw he was completely covered. He shoved Kate a little on her shoulder.
"You…(laughter)….your face…(laughter)…" every word she said had laughter after it. All the sudden Charlie came sprinting over.
"You did it didn't you!" he exclaimed. Charlie's face lit up with excitement. Crying because of laughter Kate managed to choke out a yes. They high-fived each other.
"You planned this?" asked Jack slightly amused.
"Charlie told me, if ever anyone was down in the dumps to do that joke. It worked!" exclaimed Kate.
"Yeah it did." Smiled Jack. Jack was wondering if he was having more than just friendly feelings for Kate. It had been a while that they had been on the island and Kate and him started to become friendlier every day. When Jack noticed he was staring at her he quickly said, "Charlie where did you learn that?" Charlie so happy to be included in the conversation smiled and said,
"When me and me band was at an after party a girl got me with that one." Charlie smiled all pleased with himself.
"Charlie!" screamed Claire from across the way. Charlie turned he panicked a little.
"Nice talking with you but gotta run." "Coming love!" replied Charlie as he ran off towards Claire and Sawyer. Charlie leaving Kate and Jack alone, everything was silent. They just sat there smiling at one another.

Sayid looked down at the hatch, the big metal dome in the earth. A horrified expression of amazement filled his face. He looked at Locke who stood calmly leaning against a tree. Sayid couldn't believe his eyes, he looked back at the hatch. The small window caught his eye. What was it, this thing thought Sayid. He felt like a fool with his mouth open in amazement but he was at a loss of words. Locke got up off the tree and crossed his arms. "Welcome to the Hatch, Sayid." Locke said in a cool hard tone.
