Soul Survivor
Chapter Nine
Confrontation
Over the day, Alex looked and felt much better. He was no longer drowsy and was able to get out of bed, although his wounds still were bad, he could still walk; though he limped slightly. He stepped out of the makeshift tent and squinted for a while, as his eyes got used to the Sun again
"Ah, I see you're looking well," said Jack, smiling
"Yeah," replied Alex "I feel it too. Thank you" and he hugged Jack, who in return, hugged back
"It's ok," said Jack "You'll need bandages for your wounds. You don't want an infection"
"I guess you're right..." replied Alex
They went back inside the tent, where Jack bandaged both Alex's legs and his right arm. He also put a little one above his right eye. (The left isn't hurt because he laid on his left side when he was attacked, in case you didn't know)
"Thanks again" said Alex, hugging Jack "Oh, by the way, do you know if Locke brought back my bag?"
"Yeah, he did" said Jack "Go ask him"
"I dunno who he is" said Alex
"He's the bald guy," said Jack "You can't miss him"
"Ok," said Alex, and he went off to look for Locke
He finally found him, eating an orange
"Um, excuse me" said Alex, bending down next to him "I was wondering if-"
"I have your bag?" asked Locke, offering a piece of orange, without even looking at
Alex; who rejected it "I put it by the fuselage"
"Oh, ok" said Alex "By the way, thank you for saving me. I'm very grateful"
"You're quite welcome" replied Locke, again offering orange, which Alex again declined
"Listen, I've gotta go…" said Alex, backing away "Thanks again"
"And you're welcome, again" replied Locke, still staring out to sea
Alex walked over to the fuselage, looking for his black bag. He couldn't find it, and it
wasn't anywhere near it. We walked over to Locke again
"Um, sorry to bother you again, it's just I can't find it…" said Alex
"It should be there" said Locke, not looking at Alex again "If not, some people have already gotten to it"
"But it had a lock on it" said Alex
"Well, they'd break it open any way the could" replied Locke "I'm sure it's there… Keep looking"
"Thanks…" said Alex, walking away "As if it's any help…" he muttered
He walked over to the fuselage again, looking in all the places he checked before again. He walked inside the fuselage again. The bodies had started to go rotten and the stench was unbelievable. Alex covered his face with his t-shirt. He looked at the edge part, then walked in. Shuffling came from behind him, he looked around. Nothing was there. He continued looking. The shuffling came again. He turned round; there stood Sawyer, holding his bag
"Looking for this?" he asked, holding up his bag
"Yeah," said Alex, standing up "Where'd you find it?"
"Outside, with some other stuff" replied Sawyer, examining the bag
"Oh, thanks" said Alex, walking up to the bag to retrieve it
Sawyer held up the bag, "Ah, ah, ah," he said "You'll have to pay for it"
"What?" said Alex "Pay for my own stuff?"
"Yup, I found it," said Sawyer "Therefore, you should pay me for finding it"
"But I found it in the first place" replied Alex "I found it this morning"
"Well it was back here by lunch"
"But-"
"Do ya want your bag or not?"
"Of course I do, it's my stuff isn't it?"
"Well, pay up"
"What am I supposed to give you?"
"How about a kiss?"
"What?"
"I seen how you strut your stuff with the other guys, why not me?"
"I don't even know you! First you steal my bag, now you're trying to get me to kiss you!"
Alex looked outside, he saw Charlie, who saw him as well. Charlie gave Alex a dirty look and walked off. Alex had half a mind to punch Charlie again, but decided against it
"Look, just gimme my bag please," said Alex, holding out his hand "I've been told about you, I'm not about to fall for your tricks-"
But Sawyer grabbed Alex's outstretched arm and pulled him into a kiss. Alex immediately retaliated
"What're you doing?" he said, pushing Sawyer away "Stay away from me"
Alex grabbed his bag off Sawyer and ran off onto the beach, looking for Jack in the makeshift tent. Sawyer looked on as Alex ran off
"Little bastard" he said, walking into the sunlight, the sea breeze blowing his hair
Alex found Jack in his tent
"You were right about that Sawyer guy" he said, putting his bag on the ground
"What do ya mean?" asked Jack, giving the man medicine
"Well I couldn't find my bag, and Sawyer had it," said Alex
"Oh," said Jack "But I see you got it back"
"Yeah," said Alex "But at a price"
"Thought so," replied Jack, turning round "What did he want this time?"
"He wanted a kiss," said Alex, giving a disapproving look "I don't even know; or like, this guy and he's got the cheek to ask that?"
"That's Sawyer for ya," said Jack, he looked Alex in the eyes "And did you kiss
him?"
"Well, he kissed me" said Alex "I didn't want to. But he grabbed me"
"Did you push him away?" asked Jack
"Yeah" replied Alex "Of course I did. I'm not gonna let a guy steal my bag and ask for it back with a kiss he doesn't deserve"
"Do I deserve one?" asked Jack, pointing to his cheek
"But of course" replied Alex, as he bent down and grabbed Jack's face and pulled him into a kiss
They kissed for what seemed an eternity, until the guy with metal in him shrieked with pain. Both Alex and Jack jumped as the man screamed. Jack immediately went to him. Alex seemed a little disappointed. He glared evilly at the guy
"So I guess I'll see ya later?" asked Alex, walking to the door; bag in hand
"Yeah," replied Jack, not looking up "I suppose"
Alex walked out of the tent, the sun beating hot rays in his face
"I suppose?" whispered Alex, to himself as he walked off
He walking along the beach, until he reached the ocean, it was magnificent blue. The sea and sky seemed to melt into each other where the horizon met
Alex sat down on a mound of sand. He unzipped his bag and found nothing was really damaged too badly. He found a picture of Dan and himself, it had a huge crack down the middle, it went from the top-right corner to the bottom-left corner. Alex saw this and took the photo out. He put the photo onto the sand as he looked at the picture. Tears formed in his eyes
"How could they have made me let you go?" Alex whispered to himself, touching Dan's face
He placed the photo carefully into his bag. He looked through the rest of it. He found four melted chocolate bars, a still Diet Coke, and...
"My phone!" he said excitedly
He flipped open the phone; the battery was quite low, only three bars were left. The screen had been cracked as well. But he had no signal...
"Damnit!" he said
He tried ringing Dan on it. But the phone went dead. He shut the phone and put it in his bag. Nothing else was really in his bag, only a broken watch that Dan had gotten him, the screen was cracked and one second hand had fallen off
"Why me?" he said
He put his hand down, unaware of the picture frame still there, he cut himself on the glass
"Ow!" he said, quickly retreating, his hand was bleeding "Oh! Great!"
He got up, picking his bag up and putting it over his shoulder. He walked over to Jack's tent
"Jack, you gotta plaster or something?" asked Alex, holding his hand "I cut it..."
"How'd you manage that?" asked Jack, turning around
"I was going through my bag and cut myself" Alex replied "Most of my stuff is wrecked... Including my phone..."
"You have a phone?" asked Jack, getting a bandage and wrapping it around Alex's hand
"Ow!" said Alex, wincing in pain as Jack applied pressure to his hand
"Sorry," said Jack
"Yeah, I do have my phone on me..." said Alex "Why?"
"Does it have a signal?" asked Jack
"No..."
"Oh, never mind then" replied Jack "There, all better" and he kissed the bandage
"Thanks," said Alex, hugging and kissing him "Oops! I left the picture frame outside... I'd better go get it..."
Alex walked off (hugging and kissing Jack first) and went to find the picture frame. He walked back to where he'd left it. It was nowhere to be seen. He bent down to look. Something hard hit him in the back of the head
"OW!" Alex said, turning round
He saw the picture frame on the sand. He looked up, and saw Charlie
"Thanks for saying you already had a boyfriend" said Charlie, standing over Alex
Alex stood up, picking up the frame with him "Thanks for saying you already went out with that Claire girl" he replied
Charlie stared at Alex for a minute, Alex shoved the picture frame into his stomach. Alex walked off, but Charlie grabbed him and turned him around. Alex only just missed a punch. Alex kicked Charlie in the private-parts. Charlie immediately fell to the floor
"STAY AWAY FROM ME, CHARLIE!" Alex shouted as he walked off
Claire ran to Charlie and helped him up
"AND YOU! YOU STUPID BITCH!" shouted Alex, nudging past her
Alex stormed off over to Jack's tent. Looking behind him, he could see Claire Helping Charlie up. People had gathered round, seeing what had happened. Alex turned around, walking into Jack's tent; he gave a disappointed look
"Sorry" he whispered...
