Ralph was having an odd dream. Filled with only sound and feeling, he could not see a thing. He was surrounded by darkness and his body seemed to be in some sort of limbo.
"Dr. Grey, how is he doing?" A voice asked. She sounded so firmiliar...
"... Still no change." A new voice said. He sounded like an adult.
'What? Who's there?' Ralph thought.
"Doctor, look! He's... he's moving!"
Ralph felt slight pressure on his wrist.
"Come on son, stay with us now." The voice known as Dr. Grey said.
'Who are you talking about?' Ralph thought.
"Ralph!" A girl said.
'Huh?'
"Ralph, wake up! Time to swim!"
Ralph sat up with a jolt. The darkness disappeared and was filled with the color of the island. There were two young girls sitting besides him. Two very tan, very happy young girls.
What an odd dream...
Ralph rubbed his eyes.
"Good morning!" The blond girl, Claire, smiled.
"Morning." Ralph mummled and stretched.
"Ready for a new day?" The red head girl smiled. Ciara.
Ralph nodded. "Is Kathleen back? It's been like... a couple days. Is she usually gone this long?"
The two girls nodded.
"Oh." Ralph said.
Ciara chirped, "Guess what today's activity is?"
Ralph shrugged. "I dont know, what?"
"Panda Hunting!" Claire exclaimed.
Ralph raised an eyebrow. "Panda?"
They nodded furiously.
"Er... o-okay then..." He didn't think there were panda's on the island. In fact, he knew that there wasn't panda around. "Are you two feeling okay?" He asked. He pressed a hand on each girls forehead. Normal.
Claire frowned. "Yes, we're fine. Are you feeling okay?"
Ralph sighed. Was he?

Another warm sunny day went by, and Ralph was beginning to get paranoid. Kathleen was gone for almost 2 weeks if he remembered correctly, and the girls were beginning to get ansy too.

"So." Jack circled Kathleen. Two savage boys were on either side of her and she kept an eye on them while watching Jack like a hawk. "If i untie you, will you promise not to attack me again?"
No response.
Jack sighed. "Oh come on wench, it could be fun!"
Kathleen rolled her light brown eyes. "If i dont attack you, will you promise to take a bath?" She spat.
Jack pressed a finger to his chin. "I'll think about it."
"Then i will too." Kathleen looked away.
Jack nodded and gestured for the two boys standing by her side to untie her.
They immediatly grabbed her wrist and quickly untied her. When she was free, they backed up and raised their spears to her neck.
"Is this really necassary?" Kathleen sighed.
Everyone nodded.
Jack growled and pointed to a bruise on his face. "This is from last time, do you really think i'd let you do it agian!"
Kathleen shrugged, still very aware of the closeness of the spears. "What, you dont like it rough?"
Jack turned red. "Shut up, wench!"
"I have a name." Kathleen snapped. She fixed her saroung and folded her arms arcoss her chest.
"Yes. As long as you are apart of my tribe, you will be known as Wench. Now dance, Wench!"
Kathleen raised her eyebrows. "I'm not apart of your tribe."
Jack glared and slapped her across the face.
Since it was so unexpected, Kathleen fell to the floor with an 'Ugh!'.
Jack crossed his arms over his chest. "Now what, Wench?"
Kathleen clenched her teeth together and breathed deeply. Her body was urging her to fight, but her mind was telling her to think. She was outnumbered and unarmed.
She moved her body so that now she was sitting on the floor. All the boys stared at her curiously, especially Jack.
What now? She thought.

"KATHLEEN!" Ralph gasped as he sat up from his mat. She was in trouble, he could feel it.
It was an early morning and C and C were already up and awake.
"Ralph!" Claire said smiling.
He spun around and turned to Claire.
"Claire! I think Kathleen's in trouble!"
Claire frowned. "From what? Pigs?" She laughed.
Ralph shook his head. "No no... not from pigs... remember how i said there was other savage boys on the island?"
Claire's eyes were wide. "Shh! Kathy doesn't want us to talk about it!" She pressed a finger to his lips.
Ralph blinked. "Errr..."
She smiled. "Now dont mention it. She'll be fine, she's always out this long." The young 12 year old girl said.
Ralph shook his head, "But Claire, you dont understand! These boys are crazy, they even tried to kill me! They were going to-"
"Just SHUT UP and kiss me!" Claire cut him off.
Ralph's eyes went wide.
"WhAT?" His voice broke. But before he knew it, the preteen jumped on him and pressed her lips against his.
