The next day was cold and rainy. Most people stayed in their shelters or at the caves. Arzt and Ana stayed in bed, just talking. Arzt was so mesmerized by Ana's beautiful voice that he almost forgot about his revenge on Claire, until he heard some girls gossiping in one of the tents next to them.

"Omgosh, last night was so awesome!"

"I know, Claire was too cool… someone needed to chop those two freakazoids, and she did it so well!"

"But did you see the look on Leslie's…" They both cracked up laughing for a moment. "…the look on his face? That was kinda… scarier than usual."

They started laughing again, but Arzt had tuned out. He wasn't even listening to Ana anymore. He slowly sat up, and Ana stopped talking.

"Leslie? Leslie? What are you doing?" She put a hand on his arm, but he ignored her. "LESLIE! LISTEN TO ME!" she ordered. He turned and looked at her.

"Sorry, baby. I'll be back in a sec, okay?"

Ana frowned. "Where are you going? It's raining."

Arzt rolled his eyes. "I know that. I'll be right back, just stay here, alright?"

Ana sat back and watched him walk out of the tent, into the rain.

------------------

"AARON!"

Ana jerked awake and sat up. She rubbed her eyes, wondering how long she had been asleep for. Ana looked out the door of the tent.

The camp was in chaos. It was still raining, but not as hard. A lot of people were yelling, and Claire was standing in the middle of the camp, screaming her head off. Sun was trying in vain to console her.

Ana got up and went out of the tent and up to some random.

"Random! What the hell is going on?"

The random stared at her, almost in shock that he had actually been spoken to.

"Um… I think… Claire… well… I don't really know…" he said vaguely. Ana stared at him.

"Well thanks, you were so friggin helpful." Ana said sarcastically and walked away.

She went up to Hurley.

"Hey, what's going on? That random is just too… random."

"Dude, Aaron is missing. A coupla guys are starting a search party… over there." He said and pointed towards the edge of the jungle. Ana, always wanting a bit of the action, went over to them.

Jack and Sayid were taking charge, Locke was looking on wisely, and Charlie was getting very stressed out.

"Look, we need to make a plan -

"No, we need to bloody go out there and find him! Not wait around for him to get eaten or something -

"Charlie, he's not going to get eaten -

"You don't know! We need to leave, now."

Jack frowned, but gave in. "Okay. Lets go."

"Jack!" Ana called out. He looked at her.

"Can I help you?"

"I wanna come."

Jack rolled his eyes. "What about Leslie, Ana?"

Ana looked at the ground. She had almost forgotten about him. "I… I dunno…"

"JACK!" Charlie yelled to him.

"So?"

"I'm coming. Just one sec." Ana turned back to Hurley and asked him if he could tell Arzt she had gone to find Aaron, if he saw him. Hurley reluctantly agreed and Jack, Sayid, Charlie, Locke, and Ana set off into the jungle.
