CHAPTER 6

"KATE!" Jack cried and ran forward.

There she was right in front of him,her eyes closed,her breathing labored...a bit of blood on her forehead but still there neatherless.

"Hold on kate! i'll let you down! nothing eles will happen to you i swear! you'll be ok! " he was gasping for breathe but countined reassuringly whether she could hear him or not," it's just a light wound,nothing i can't fix! you hear me!"

Kate was tied to a tree trunk.Her hands and legs were bounded with rope and blood dripped from her wrists where the roped rubbed against it.Her hair hung loosly around her face which was gray-whitish color...

She did'nt answer him as he untied her ropes but her eyelids fluttered slightly and a low moan drifted from he lips.

Jack managed to get all the arm bounds off and was now working on her legs...

"jack..." kate mummered...her voice was weak and frightned,are you there?..."

"i'm right here kate! hold on!"

He did'nt see her eyes widen with fear or the knife that glittered behind him precopipied with the rope.

"JACK!" kate yelled with all the energy and emotion she could manage.It exploded from her mouth and then she felt drained.A shudder shoke through her bones and nausisa made her close her eyes.

Jack spun around and tackled the man behind me.The knife dropped from the intruders hand but not before slashing jack's arm.Jack winced but did'nt let go.He grabbed the struggling man by the shoulders and sat on top of him,throwing all his weight so he could'nt get away.

Jack's eyes were glittering with anger.here was the man who had hurt him...who tried to harm kate...he grabbed the knife and pushed back the man's hair gasping in shock.

"it's you!" he said,ethan!" (just incase you have'nt seen the eposide ethan is the one that tried to capture claire's baby,tried to kill charlie and killed anthor man.he was one of the supposed others)

Ethan snarled and jack raised the knife threathnily.

"what do you want with kate!"he asked harshly.

Ethan spat in his face.

"if i have to ask you one more time iwill---he raised the knife letting it gleam in the light,now what did you do with kate!"

Ethan cleared his throat and smiled.

"what--?what are you smiling about!" jack shouted.

"NOW!" ethan yelled.

Immediatly people crawled out of the trees and bushes.THere was seven of them.Jack backed off ethan, and ran towards kate.

"leave her alone! if you want to hurt anyone! hurt me! "

"oh i will hurt you...,ethan hissed, when you took claire back and beat me...i most definately will but i no what will hurt more,he smiled and glanced at kate.

"YOU!"jack roared and launched himself on ethan.They rolled on the ground for a moment but jack was stronger and muscles rippling started punching him.

"I'LL KILL YOU---DON'T YOU DARE!"

Ethan was coughing up blood but jack was crazed he would'nt stop.

What's happening to me?what am i turning into ?..i have to stop...to stop...it seemed like a dream to him like he was watching from faraway.A hand connected to his skull and he fainted.

When he awoke it was barely a few minutes later but enough for them to take advantage of unconscious so that he was tied up beside kate.

Her eyes were open now and she whispered

"jack..."

"kate i---"

"sorry to interrupt this lovely conversation but we must be going but first...,ethan said softly,what did i promise jack? i always keep my promises?"

The seven others behind him,faces impassive just watched waiting for orders as ethan pulled out a needle from a suitcase on bended knee.He sat on the ground for a few minutes muttering to himself before he finally stood up and face them.

The needle was now filled with golden yellow liquid.Whatever it was jack had an idea it was'nt good.

When ethan started to walk towards them with a dangerous smile planted against his face one of the seven spoke up.

"ethan,were not supposed to hurt them--orders"

"do you want me to inject you with this!" ethan said.

"no sir,the man backed away clenching his fist, i just meant that he told us not to hurt them"

"i must have my revenge...beside i will keep half of my promise i'll only harm one of them"

He countined walking forward and no one seemed to stop him this time.

"what is that,jack shouted.

"get the hell away from us"kated yelled.( she seemed to recover her strength pretty fast)

Ethan not even regarding these yells stood in front of kate,needle in hand and grasped her chin jutting it forward.

Jack struggled with the ropes trying to get free.

"it hurts..does'nt it, ethan whispered,that's what i felt when you hurt me and then i was punished for not capturing claire later on...how do you think i felt"

Jack had a vemounous look in his face

"let her go! do me instead!"but he already knew from the look of his face that it was hopeless.

"no,no,no, he said, this hurts more...does'nt it, now hush girl be quiet...this will only take a minute.

Kate spat in ethan's face."let me go! dammit! let me go!"

"but i simpliy can't do that" he whispered and drew the needle,this will only take a minute."

Kate was starting to look nervous and sweat dripped down her neck."hey what's that going to do? what are you going to do to me!" she struggled but could'nt get free.

"hush this will only take a minute"

"HELP! HELP! SAWYER! JACK HELP ME PLEASE!"kate was shouting now.

"LET GO OF HER!"jack to was shouting in turn.

"please don't do this...please----"

The needle drew closer and closer to her skin,to her neck.and then--

"ah--ow" the needle plunged into her skin despoiting the yellowish liquid inside her body.

"no"kate whispered

"no" jack said,kate!"

She did'nt have time to replie because the both of them were dragged or in kate's case lifted and as they trundled forward. jack's and now kate's only hope was,

sawyer.hard to say but jack now rested his faith on sawyer.His faith and kate's.

Jack glanced at her.She was looking nervous but she was awake and alive but that did'nt reassure him much

He was wondering most likely as she what that needle and it's liquid had done to her.

sawyer please...

well how was it? please tell me your opinion even if it's critisim.bye.next chapter is about sawyer,obviously.
