A/N: Here's another chapter! Ok, I know this is a slight copy ( not all, just a bit) of Exodus pt. 1. It'll start a bit like it, but it won't

Chapter 13:Jail Time

" RUN!" The people around the fire scattered like ants. Running up the beach, into the ocean, as far away as they could. To everyone's surprise, the figure vanished back into the darkness. Locke took out his knives and walked into the jungle.

" They're gone." He said, slashing a bush next to him. Jack came up to where Locke stood.

" They?" Locke nodded.

" It's dark, but there was defidently at least two people here." He stopped for a moment, something on the ground had caught his eye. He reached down and picked it up. It was an inch long piece of red fabric. The others who had joined them stared in silence.

" Oh my goodness." Locke said absent-mindedly, looking out into the dark jungle. Everyone back off, thinking he had seen something in the jungle.

" What? What's Oh my goodness?" Jack voice was shaking. Locke shook his head.

" Nothing... nothing." Jack gave a off-hand laugh, though nothing was funny.

" Locke, I know you, its not nothing!" Locke mimicked the chuckle.

" We need to be on our guard tonight Jack, we also need to be watching for the ship." Jack shrugged.

" That was obvious, oh, ok," He turned to the people, " We need to get away from the wood, we need to all stay on the beach, though." There was collected groans and people hurried up to Jack, complaining and questioning him. No one noticed Locke slip into the jungle.

Sawyer took Isabella to the now terrified Irish people. Then he went back to Kate's tent where She and Cecilia were together. Cecilia looked scared when Sawyer came in and ran to hug him.

" Is Momma ok, James?" Sawyer nodded.

" She's fine. You to can go to sleep, Jack gave me a gun." He pointed to the holster on his belt. Kate shook her head.

" You sleep, I'll stand guard." Sawyer shook his head. He looked down at Cecilia, who was snoozing on his knee. Kate shivered.

" Who do you think that was?" She asked him. He sighed.

" No idea, maybe it's the french chick, maybe it was one of those other people."

" The others?" Sawyer shrugged.

" Maybe."

" What do you think they want?" Sawyer shook his head.

" Once again, Kate, I have no idea. They could want Claire's baby, our boat transceivers, or maybe Cecilia." He ran his fingers through her messy curls.

" I just hope we get saved soon." Sawyer said. Kate sighed and was silent.

" What? You don't want to get saved from this rock?" He asked. She shook her head.

" James, I'm going to jail, I did some bad stuff, and I know, I just know, I'll be found immediately, " she gave a small laugh, " You remember those 5 guns?" Sawyer nodded.

" The marshal brought them all because he needed them all to control me." She said, looking down at her knees.

" You don't seem to dangerous, Kate." She shook her head.

" Oh, life isn't what you want it to be James, I found that out a long time ago." They stayed up for most of the night. Finally , they drifted off.

Sawyer was awaken by a scream, many voices yelling, and the smell of strong smoke.

A/N: I just saw Phantom of The Opera for the first time at my cousins house. She has a projection screen and we had the volume up all the way! What a great movie! The phantom rocks!
