This is taking place after my 2nd chapter and it goes with the promo pictures for "Do No Harm"
Shannon had butterflies in her stomach all day, but not the good kind. She was afraid of what it would be like when Sayid confronted her. She was also afraid that he would not confront her at all. The talk with Claire helped her out a little. She knew Claire was right. But Shannon wanted Sayid to forgive her for what she did so badly. Shannon knew there was nothing else she could do, so she decided to go to bed.
"Shannon...Shannon, wake up..Please come with me," said a voice to Shannon while she was sleeping. Shannon slowly opened her eyes and to her surprise it was Sayid. "Where are we going?" she asked. "You'll see," said Sayid. Shannon followed Sayid to the end of the beach where Sayid had set up a little picnic for them. There were flowers,a blanket and fruit waiting for Shannon. Shannon's face light up and she excitedly asked, "whats this for?" Sayid sat down and Shannon did as well. "I read the diary, Shannon," Sayid said. Shannon's face dropped, she knew she was about to hear it. Sayid continued, "To say that I was shocked and surprised would be an understatement." Shannon tearfully cut Sayid off and said, "Look Sayid..I can't handle this..I can't listen to you rip into me right now."
"Shannon,wait..let me finish," Sayid said cutting Shannon off. "You said before that you wanted to start a new life on this island...and I believed you...I still believe you..And..Well..I want to start a new life too..I can look past your past, if you can look past mine.." Shannon happily listened to Sayid as he continued, "Remember that picture? of the girl? Well...the girl's name was Nadia. She was the love of my life..and she was killed..killed because of me..I havent been able to talk about her until now." Shannon smiled and said, "I though you didnt want me to know about the picture?" Sayid gazed into Shannon's eyes and said, "Shannon..I know what you did was wrong..but reading this diary made me realize..that you aren't the same girl that you were..You were truthful with me..and I know that was hard..So I, in turn..was truthful with you..Not because I felt I had to be..but because I wanted to be...Shannon..I think I'm falling in love with you."
"I think I'm falling in love with you too,Sayid," Shannon said. Sayid caressed Shannon's face and leaned in for a kiss. It was the most passionate kiss that Shannon had ever received, because it was pure and true. Shannon rested her head on Sayid's shoulder and held his hand as they stared at the stars. The next couple of days were wonderful. Shannon had never smiled so much in her life. Shannon and Sayid spent every day together. They helped build the new raft, went swimming, worked on translations, and even stole a few kisses. But even though Shannon was loving the past couple of days, she had noticed that something was wrong with Boone. He was not talking to her at all. Her feelings for Boone were past anything romantic, but he was still her brother and she didnt want her only family to hate her. "Could he be jealous?" Shannon wondered. She had to find out.
Shannon knew that Boone went into the forest every morning. So the following morning, Shannon woke up and followed him. She followed him about halfway into the forest when he suddenly stopped.. "Why are you following me, Shannon?" Boone asked while turning to Shannon's direction. Shannon came out from the tree she was hiding behind and said, "I'm surprised you are even talking to me."
"Shannon, go back," replied Boone as he turned around without any hesitation. Shannon quickly grabbed Boone's arm and said, "No! Not until you tell me whats been going on with you lately." Boone looked at Shannon and said, "Shannon...isn't it obvious! I am in love with you." Shannon looked worried. "Boone...stop..you arent in love with me," Shannon said.. "Shannon..yes..yes, I am..I can't stop thinking about you." Shannon covered her ears, quickly cutting Boone off and said, "No...No...I'm not hearing this." Boone ran up to Shannon and pulled her hands away from her ears and yelled, "Shannon, you are hearing this! Why do you think I have been ignoring you lately? Do you honestly think its because I'm too busy! It's eating me up inside..seeing you with Sayid everyday..it kills me...But I know you feel it too...you have to." Shannon started shaking her head no and started to cry. "No...no! Boone...stop...I'm in love with Sayid...please stop this," Shannon said. Boone started to cry and he started to seem desperate when he said, "Shannon..please...I have this deep pain...right here in my heart."
As soon as the word "heart" uttered out from Boone's mouth, and arrow flying from in back of Boone pierced straight through Boone's heart. Boone slowly looked down at the arrow sticking out of his body. Shannon's eyes widened and she started to cry. "BOONE!" she screamed in terror as she watched her brother's life fade away. Boone slowly looked up at Shannon. Gasping for air, he spoke his last word, "Shannon," he said as he dropped to his knees and hit the ground. Shannon started panicking as she looked at her dead brother.."I told him Shannon...I told him he had to move on," said a man's voice to Shannon.
Shannon panickly looked up at Boone's killer, "Locke!" she said. Locke continued, "Shannon..I did everything I could to get him to stop thinking about you..I hit him over the head, I tied him up, I made him busy with work..heck..I even had him kill you in his mind..but he just couldn't stop thinking about you..He just didn't listen."
"You're crazy!" Shannon screamed. Locke replied, "Am I, Shannon? You had sex with your brother who was in love with you and now you're currently in love with a man who tortured people for a living..and Im crazy?" Shannon started to cry. "Boone was going to come between you and Sayid and I couldn't have that..I need Sayid on my side," Locke said.. "Your side! What the hell are you talking about!" asked Shannon.. Locke continued, "I can't tell you now..But hopefully you will be there as well...Now..I suggest you run." Shannon's eyes widened and she turned around and ran as fast as she could...
