KATE
Kate sat against the damp wall trying to ignore the water dripping slowly from the ceiling making a small puddle. She shivered and rubbed her arms slowly trying to warm herself up. The excitement of Sawyer coming had worn off as sitting down for ages had taken its toll on her. She hadn't slept for more than a hour and the bags under her eyes were proof of that exactly. Her eyes had definately lost their sparkle and she looked worn and tired. Her once elegant curls were now scraped back in a ponytail with a elastic band. Nobody ever came in the room unless it was Sara with her meals where they shared a 5 minute conversation before she shuffled off, apologizing.
Drip-Drip-Drip-Drip the water went.
She sighed irritatedly and rolled her eyes.
Drip-Drip-Drip-Drip
Oh for goodness sake...how much longer am I gonna be here for? days? weeks? months? years? She shuddered at the very thought.
Maybe I should just give up altogether? I don't know how much longer I can stand it in here for...
Drip-Drip-Drip-Drip
"Oh for god's sake" she moaned clenching her fists. Suddenly the door swung open and from it stepped the man smirking.
"Oh honestly babe, I knew you had a bit of an attitude but that's going a bit too far?"
Kate glanced up at him then looked down again rolling her eyes.
"Oh it's YOU" she muttered.
"Knew you would be pleased to see me"
"Yeah, us being best friends and all" she said sounding surprisingly like Sawyer.
He grinned and said: "I have some news, whether to tell you or not is the fun part"
She looked up trying not to show she was interested and casually shrugged.
"Oh really?" she said sounding bored. Sawyer would be proud
"Yeah thats right but because of your not so warm reception I'll decide against it" he said.
"Stand up" he ordered.
"What?" she asked surprised.
"Just do it?"
"Why?" she repeated getting more agitated.
"Just-stand-up-now" he ordered slowly, gritting his teeth. His eyes showed anger and Kate became increasingly nervous. She slowly rose to her feet and stood in front of him, avoiding his gaze.
"O-kaaayyy" she said and looked at her feet which had become suddenly interesting.
"Good" he said. "Turn around now so you have your back to me"
"What are-?" she began confused.
"Just do it!" he yelled.
She quickly turned confused how he could be so jokey one minute, then so mean the next.
She felt him tying her hands together again. She winced as the rope cut into her wrists which were already red raw and stopped herself from yelping as he tyed them tightly. She felt tears coming slowly, but she blinked them back as he growled:
"Okay turn back now" he said clalmly. She breathed a sigh of relief as he didn't sound quite so angry.
"Right, come in" he yelled over his shoulder and three other men came into the room. Kate recognised them as the same men as before even though it was hard to remember. They were dressed in black just like the other man but one of them was of a slightly bigger build than the others. One of them eyed Kate appreciatively and she shot him a glare as best she couldand the other two just looked at her coldly.
"What are you doing?" Kate whispered bravely looking at them nervously and her eyes darted between all four of them.
"Don't you mind. You had your chance to know" said the leader coldly, eyeing Kate with great disgust.
What the hell is going on? one minute he's all nice...the next awful? where am I going?
"I think I WILL mind as you've tied me up and are planning to take me somewhere as far as I can see" she replied with gritted teeth as she shot him a death glare. Two of the men exchanged glances but didn't say anything. Everyone knew not to say anything.
"It doesn't concern you" he replied while he beckoned to someone and Kate saw Sara running into the room nervously.
"Yes?" Sara asked looking at the leader.
"I want you to get some stuff ready. We're going somewhere and YOU'RE coming too seeing as how you tried to escape last time I went. You're lucky I like you so much Sara...or you'd be dead by now" he whispered dangerously and he walked towards her.
Sara looked at him defiantly yet still walked away from him and bit her lip nervously.Two of the other men snickered quietly. Clearly this had happened before.
"Fine" she said quietly.
"That's good. goooddd" he muttered and stepped towards her.
"Leave her alone" Kate hissed while Sara sneaked out hurriedly.
"What?" he growled and spun on his heel.
"I said leave her alone!" Kate repeated loudly. Her confidence was coming back and she looked at him with hatred.
"Unless you want to be hurt I suggest-"
"Suggest what?" Kate scoffed. "You think you're so high? You abuse people, threaten them, KIDNAP people? Why should I be scared of you? You're nothing but a COWARD!" she yelled at him.
"Right you little Bit-"
"Oh come on! You can do better than that surely?" She shouted. stepping towards him her eyes glaring suddenly and her anger took over.
"Right-" he spat as she got closer and nodded two of the men forward. They took Kate by the arms and held her back while she struggled, her arms flailing wildly
"GET OFF! YOU BLOODY COWARD" she shouted.
"Oh for goodness sake" he snarled as if very bored by the whole thing and he signaled to the larger man on the right who got out his gun while Kate eyed it fearfully and he sighed at her and rolled his eyes.
He held it against Kate's head and looked at the leader as if waiting for instructions.
"You should have stayed quiet. Now who knows what could happen. Nighty-Night" he growled.
Suddenly the man hit Kate on the head with his gun and her eyes blurred before she slumped to the floor unconscious.
SAWYER
Sawyer was sitting on a dirty blue plane seat in a circle with about twenty other people. Most of them looked attentive but Sawyer was slumped on the chair with his lighter. Jack was talking to everyone explaining how things were going to be done and Sawyer was incredibly bored considering the fact that he already knew.
Course Jackass WOULD want to act like the whole thing was HIS idea and then give everyone the mission briefing. I couldn't care less I just want to go and get freckles and that's that.
He was agitated and everone knew it. Everyone kept glancing at him as he fiddled with his lighter flicking it.
On,
Off,
On,
Off,
On,
Off
The flame flickered and Sawyer looked at it with more interest than Jack.
"Sawyer!" Jack said exasperated.
"Oh! What now Doc?" Sawyer said, shooting him anannoyed glare and rolling his eyes.
Everyone turned to look at him and Sawyer glared at them all and they turned back quickly.
"Sawyer please stop doing that with your lighter, I'm TRYING to explain" said Jack attempting to keep his cool.
"Doing what with my lighter?" he asked inncoently.
"You know what Sawyer." Jack replied frustrated.
"Oh...you mean this?" he asked
On,
Off,
On,
Off
He played with the lighter, a smirk on his face and he looked up at Jack mischieviously.
"Sawyer I am TRYING to explain. I don't know why I bother..." Jack said his voice trailing off.
"Why bother indeed ? From what lardo and I found out yesterday, there are spies around so it's a smart move telling everyone" He said scathingly, mocking Jack.
Jack looked down angry then looked at Sawyer straight in the eyes.
"Well then nobody would know what to do would they?"
"Everyone on the whole god damn island knows now you've been playing hero all bout it for god's sake" he drawled as he lit a cigarette and puffed on it.
A few people observed him in disgust. They all knew he had been touchy over the past 3 days and had tried to avoid him at all costs. Well everyone apart from Charlie, Claire or Michael.
"Get the guns out already will ya? This is just sad" Sawyer mumbled.
"Sawyer!" Jack warned and Sawyer puffed some smoke in his general direction and a few people coughed.
"Sawyer look stop okay?" Jack asked.
Sawyer leaned back in his seat but put the lighter in his pocket.
"Okay." Jack sighed.
"Claire will go in and act as if she is handing her Aaron over. She's been practising and she is honestly great at acting" Jack said and Claire blushed a little but gave him a appreciative smile.
"Me, Michael, and Locke will be hiding in the bushes waiting until we see the men and try to figure out wht they may be carrying. We are going to wait for a few minutes so they don't realise anythings up and Claire will buy us some time hopefully. Sawyer will be on the other side of the clearing ready to get Kate as soon as the time is right. Allfour of us will have a gun so that we can protect ourselves against whatever we may be faced against. Charlie will be there also to get Claire and Aaron out of there as soon as possibe so that none of them will come to any harm. We will attempt to distract the men while Sawyer grabs Kate and gets her out of there." Jack explained thoroughly while everyone nodded.
"Okay" he said and opened the case full of guns handing one to Locke, Michael, Sawyer and kept one for himself.
"We head out soon, Claire go and get Aaron okay?" Jack said and Claire hurried off.
Right. Well that was fun.
Everyone stood up and wandered back to their spots on the beach apart from Locke, Sawyer, Jack, Michael and Claire.
"Well, I have to say Doc, GREAT SPEECH" Sawyer said sarcastically taking another drag on his cigarette.
"Whatever Sawyer" Jack replied wearily
"I'm being serious! I loved it! Very illuminating" Sawyer said with a straight face but his voice dripping with sarcasm. He put out his cigarette in the sand and looked up at Jack.
"Sooooooooo missing Freckles?" he asked and Jack looked up surprised.
"What do you mean?" he asked carefully.
"God chico! Aren't doctors smart? I asked if you missed her" he said incredulously
"Of course I miss her." Jack replied and Sawyer was silent.
"Why? Do you?" Jack said curiously.
Sawyer smiled miscieviously.
"Course I miss Freckles. I ain't got nobody to pay me a midnight visit anymore have I?" He said laughing.
"Ugh. I is that ALL you think about?" Jack replied
"Nope, I think about a lot of things,just that happens to be the most common" Sawyer smirked.
"Besides, How do you know it's not true?" he carried on and Jack looked at him.
"Because you're lying. You always lie." Jack said.
"No I don't" Sawyer reasoned.
"Yes you do"
"And how would YOU know?"
"Because"
"Because? wow thats low even for you."
"You're so childish"
"Wow, thats even worse than before. Besides, you can't talk about childish. Who's the one that asked Kate to help him with wood just coz he was jealous? YOU. So if you think about it, this is all your fault."
"Shut up"
"Hit a nerve? Can't stand the fact that freckles LIKES spending time with me?"
Little did they know that nearly everyone was listening on their conversation eagerly because nearly everyone knew about the love triangle going on, yet they politely pretended they didn't.
"Kate likes spending time with me too"
"Uh huh. So is that why she looked so reluctant to leave me so she could play the woodcutter's wife with you?"
"Right. Who do you think she trusts more? Me maybe? If I remember rightly YOU were the one that spilled her secrets, not me"
"I did what I had to do"
"Right I got it. So making Kate cry was on your list of things to do this year?"
"You don't know a damn thing about it so don't pretend you do, It's all your fault that Kate is captured"
"Shut up!"
"Make me" said Sawyer simply and almost daring.
Jack got up and so did Sawyer. They glared at each other before Charlie came between them and said:
"Hey guys, come on. We are trying to help Kate. What good is it going to do if you're both beaten up?"
Both guys looked at each other before sitting down again. Then they both noticed everyone was looking at them
"Yes?" Sawyer hissed and they all pretended like noting had happened.
Way to go Sawyer! Just let your feelings show to evryone. Let everyoneKNOW how you feel about Freckles. You stupid idiot. Your gonna have to try harder than that. You are meant to be acting like you couldn't care less about her fool.
