Title:

The Mind is a Dangerous Place


Chapter 6: Crazy Chick

After Jack cleaned the girls wound and placed a rap around her head, Locke decided to sit on the sand and clear his mind.

He picked up the girl and brought her to the place where he was going to sit. He placed her down and seated her. At least she sat down instead of lying down.

He sat down and crossed his legs Indian style. He closed his eyes and just went over his thoughts.

He thought about what a miracle it was that they were alive. Another miracle would be him walking…and than there was the girl. She brought so many mysteries and questions that all Locke could do was to wonder.

She was with two men in the plane, and he knew that one of they was long gone. But the other, he could be one of the survivors.

Well he made a promise that he will protect the girl. She was different, special…with a special destiny that was for sure.

Locke's thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a loud, terrible monstrous howl of a sound coming behind him.

He turned towards the sound and watched with fear and shock as the trees in the jungle began shake like an invisible force was shoving them aside.

Everyone had stopped what they were doing and were all as silent as death as they all watched the trees shake and bend as whatever was making that sound shoved the trees away.

Suddenly a sound that was so strange to come out at this moment was heard. Everyone quickly turned towards the alien sound that should not even beheard at this time.

The girl was laughing. Not a chuckle, not a giggle, but laughing like a lunatic. Her laughter was so loud that even the noise in the forest quieted down.

Everyone was staring at her, including Locke. The monster sound was forgotten as everyone watched with expressions that could be interpreted as 'this girl is insane'.

Just as suddenly as the girl started laughing, it was just as suddenly as she stopped.

She then got up, much to Jacks surprise, and slowly walked towards Locke.

She looked up to Locke, her eyes still clouded over, and Locke knew that she was still trapped in her mind.

But if she is trapped within her mind, than how was she able to laugh and to walk?

He left his thoughts when he heard her speak.

"You will soon see…what Key sees." With that she fainted.

Locke reached out and caught her. Lock looked around at the faces of pure shock that were surrounding him.

"Great, just great!" Someone with a southern accent spoke out.

"Here we are, stranded on an island in the middle of nowhere, monsters out there in the forest, and to make matters even better we have a lunatic chick among us!"

Locke turned to see who the voice belonged to. He saw a man with blond hair and a scruffy looking face. He could already tell he had an asshole like attitude.

Everyone turned away from Locke and went back to what they were doing, but still heeding what the man had said.

They were stranded on an island, and who knew what was out there. And taking a quick glance towards Locke and the girl, it did seem that the girl was a little in the head.

Literally


Sorry for the really short chapter. But I wanted to leave the 'big one' for the next chapter.

I'm going to skip all that jazz with Jack, Kate, & Charlie off to find the front of the plane.

But in the next chapter we will start with the 'dog fight' between Sawyer and Sayid. (Have you noticed that the two hotties, both of their names start with S?)

Special thank you to Reviewer:

Imzadi – I knew I was right! About the name and all. Riker is so cute! But Deana got up…rats! You like Q too? YAY! My mom thinks I'm insane to think so. But I can't help it! He is SO cool. I'm writing another fic that has to deal with that…or at least part of it. Hehe.

Thank you for the constructive criticism. I keep forgetting to double check my tenses. Sometimes I write so fast I forget to double check. (Gives sheep grin) I promise though that I will double check from now on. But if I miss some though, please let me know. And thanks again for the telling me Locke's name. No wonder Google didn't want to give me any pictures.

EEEEE! Wrong! It wasn't Sawyer. Hehehe…frankly I haven't got a clue who I want April to have a romance with. I picked two, but I can't decide on which one.

Oh well, there is still plenty of time to think about that. And thank you for seeing the picture of the actor I chose to play April. The beauty is that I don't have to pay the actors to be my characters. I just use their faces to give a mental image to my readers.

God bless the internet! Well I gotta go. I will post more soon. Later!
