Claire burst into the room as Ethan sink the knife into Charlie's chest.
"NO," she yelled in horror.
She ran up to Ethan and punched him. Ethan dropped Charlie to ground as Ethan himself dropped to the ground also.
"Claire get that knife," Jack yelled.
Claire grabbed the knife off the ground. It was covered in Charlie's blood. She sobbed as she raised the knife into the air. "I didn't want to do this but you have given me no choice," she said.
She stabbed Ethan in the heart. She pulled the knife from his body and the slit his throat. He blood spilled all over the floor. Claire watched him bleed to death with rage in her eyes. He stopped breathing. Claire couldn't believe it but when he did, she was happy.
"Claire untie me I need to get to Charlie," Jack said.
Claire grabbed the knife and cut all of Jack's bonds. They both went over to Charlie's limp body.
"O god, is he dead," she bawled.
"No, not yet. We need to get him back to camp or he will bleed to death," Jack said turning to Claire. "I'm going to need your help Claire."
She nodded. "What do you want me to do," she asked.
Jack grabbed a cloth off the floor and put pressure on Charlie's wound. He took a piece of his bonds and tied the cloth around Charlie's chest to keep as much of Charlie's blood in as Jack could.
"I need you to help me lift him," Jack said.
"Mommy," Claire heard a voice yell.
"Jacob, o my god what are you doing here, " Claire said as she hugged her son. He was tied tightly and she cut his bonds and Lilah's bonds also.
"Jack how are we going to carry all of the kids and Charlie," Claire asked.
"Lilah and Jacob can walk. I don't know whose baby the other one is", Jack said.
"It's Jillian. Shannon gave birth to her", Claire explained.
"WHAT," Jack exclaimed!
"I know," Claire said. "It was early."
"I would ask how she is but the longer we wait, the more Charlie suffers," Jack said raising Charlie up. "I'll drag Charlie, you carry Jillian," Jack said.
Claire nodded and took the small baby into her arms. "Come on Jacob and Lilah, follow along," Claire said sweetly to the children.
Jack slowly dragged the limp Charlie. "You know for such a small guy, he's heavier then you would think," Jack said.
"Come here let me help you," Claire said.
In one arm she put Jillian and her other she put her arm under Charlie's arm. Jack put his arm under Charlie's arm so that both had equal weight.
"Thanks Claire," Jack said.
"No problem," Claire replied.
Claire turned around and watched Jacob and Lilah waddle along behind them. She looked at Charlie's pale face. She looked up to the sky and said ", Hail Mary full of grace...".
That's what Charlie needed most. A prayer.
