Hope you liked chapter 5! I was going to make you wait for another couple chapters until Ana Lucia found out, but you know…

I now know that Kate's name is Austin. I watched Born To Run again coz I realised it said in there what her full name was!

Katy – Thanx!

I just saw The Hunting Party episode. Boy, my story is totally different! Oh well. My imagination is way better, right?

Anyways, read on! Oh, and don't forget to review lolz.

After moving Sawyer, Jack made sure that he was ok. 'Temperature seems fine.' He said to Hurley, who was looking over his shoulder.

'Is he going to, you know, shock again?'

'I don't think he'll have a fit. He's got the right medicine. But I can't say for sure. The next 5 hours, yeah, he'll be fine, but after. Who knows?'

''k. Cool. Uh, where did Kate go?' he asked while looking around, a little distracted.

Jack now looked around. 'Oh, Kate' he whispered, concerned. I knew she would do this! He exited the room where Sawyer and Hurley were, and entered the other room. He saw Ana Lucia there, standing in the doorway to the main room. She looked lost in thought.

'Hey. Have you seen Kate?'

Ana Lucia snapped out off her thoughts. She quickly turned around to find Jack standing there, looking very concerned. She doesn't deserve that concern she simply thought.

'Um, yeah. She headed out of here as soon as you guys took the cowboy in there.' She said, indicating her head toward the room where Sawyer was. 'He ok?'

Jack had already started to head out of the hatch. 'Um, yeah. Just look after him. If he wakes up, keep him lying there. He'll be delirious. I'll be back soon.'

Ana Lucia gave him a look of surprise as he said this, as if she was surprise that he was actually telling her to stay and look after Sawyer. Jack just simply ignored this and exited the hatch, into the pitch-black night.

Once outside, he finally realised that he had no idea where exactly Kate would go. She had a lot of places. Instead Jack headed for the caves, hoping that he would run into someone who knew where Kate was, or maybe even her. She's probably on the other side of the goddamn island by now.

Jack was at the caves within 10 minutes. Once there, he looked around, just to make sure, even though he knew that Kate wouldn't be there. He walked over to the waterfall to get something to drink.

'If you're looking for Kate,' an Australian accented voice came from behind, 'she headed into there. I tried to stop her, but she wouldn't listen.' She had said, pointing towards the jungle on the right hand side of the caves.

Jack turned around and noticed how worried Claire was. 'Was she ok?' he asked, now even more worried.

'She looked… distressed. What happen Jack?'

'Um. Never mind. I've got to go after Kate.' He said as he rushed past her and everyone else by the caves.

'Jack!' someone had yelled his name, but Jack didn't stop. 'Jack! It's too dark out there!' the same person had said again.

At last, Jack stopped. He turned around to see Sayid coming towards him with two torches. 'Sayid. Don't. I'm gonna go after Kate. So don't even try'

'I wasn't going to. Here,' he said giving Jack a fire torch, 'shall I come along?'

Jack shook his head. 'I'll be back soon.'

He headed back into the jungle. Jack had absolutely no idea where to go, but if Kate was in there, he wasn't going to turn around. C'mon Kate, give me a sign.

After walking for about an hour, Jack finally got the sign which he wanted. Looking up, he saw that the tree he was under was a guava tree. The same one that Kate picks. Which meant that she knew where she was going.

'Kate?' Jack whispered into the dark. There was no response. 'Kate?' he tried again, a little louder. Still, there was no response. Maybe she's gone back he thought. It was better than thinking the other thought that was going through his head.

Jack carried on walking into the jungle. He knew how dangerous it was, but he couldn't turn back.

At last, without even knowing it, Jack ended up onto the beach. It was far from the camp as it wasn't possible to see Sayid's fire signal. He searched the beach. Without even thinking, or doing anything, he knew that Kate was here. He just knew.

As he walked further on the beach, he could see a figure on the beach. It would have been impossible to see it if the moon wasn't out. The night was cold, but the person hadn't bothered to light a fire.

Jack walked up to her as quickly as he could without it looking as if he was running. Once he got beside her, he sat down, and stared out to sea as Kate was doing. She made no sound or movement to show recognition that Jack was sitting beside her.

'Kate…' Jack started after what felt like an eternity.

She shook her head. 'Don't.'

Jack looked at her. The heat and light from the torch which Sayid had given him was enough right now to see Kate. 'Don't what?'

'You know what.' She simply murmured, still looking out to sea as if it would disappear if she didn't.

'No, I don't. Kate, I don't know anything right now. Please. Talk to me.' He pleaded now. He took her chin in his hand and turned her face reluctantly to face him. He was surprised to see that it was not tear stained. Instead, the tears in her eyes were as they were the last time he saw her; ready to fall out at any time.

For the first time, Kate really noticed who was sitting beside her. He came after me she thought, again.

'How is S- he?' she couldn't bring herself to say his name.

'He's good.' Jack still hadn't let go of her. His other hand was now at the small of her back.

Kate just gulped and nodded her head. Jack now took his hand away from her chin, and she looked away from him. 'I didn't mean it' she whispered.

'It wasn't your fault, 'k?' he said as soon as she had uttered her words. When Kate made no sign of understanding what he said, or asked, he repeated, 'it wasn't your fault.'

'I could have killed him!' she now whispered. She was looking past Jack, over his shoulder at something, anything, in the distance. He's trying to comfort me. She knew that it was her fault.

Jack was shaking his head now. 'Kate, look at me. Look at me.' He repeated when she didn't respond the first time. This time, she turned to look at him. Her eyes were full of guilt. They look beautiful, but the guilt is clouding the green.

'No. You couldn't have killed him, cos it wasn't your fault.' The tears where now spilling from her eyes. Jack moved closer to her and wrapped his arms around her.

'But - '

'No. It wasn't your fault. 'k?'

Kate rested her forehead against his. ''k' she finally said, giving in.

'Good. Shh. It's ok. It's 'k.'

Once the last of her tears had spilled, Jack raised up one hand and wiped her cheeks. He let his hand linger over the side of her cheek for another moment. In response, Kate leaned in and kissed him. Lightly at first, but then with passion.

After a while, they came apart for a breath. Kate shivered, even thought her cheeks were flushed.

'I think,' Jack began. He was still holding onto Kate. 'That we should head back.'

Kate just responded with a small sound, neither meaning yes or no. I don't care she thought. A thought came to her.

'Did you leave Sawyer alone?'

'No.' he said. Now's the time he thought. He had promised before to tell her, but now he wasn't so sure. If you don't do it now… 'I left him with Ana Lucia and Hurley.' At the sound of her name, Kate scrunched up her nose, as she had done before.

'Sorry. But I just don't like her. There's something about her. I dunno.' She shrugged.

Jack sighed. 'Kate. You're right.'

Kate turned to look at him. She had forgotten about the coldness now. She wanted to know what he meant. His arms were around her, but she was shaking too much for him to control it. Because if Kate was right, then Jack was wrong. And if Jack was wrong, then it couldn't be good.

'What about?'

'About Ana Lucia.' It was now Jack's turn to look out to sea. He took a breath. Now he had begun it, he had to end it. She's going to hate me after this.

'What about her? Jack?' Kate was now pleading. Her patience was being tested, and she didn't like it.

'She's not as innocent as everyone thinks.' Kate was looking at him with a confused look. Jack turned to face her now. He hadn't removed his arm from her shoulder, and now he took her cheek into his other hand.

'She was the one who shot Shannon.'

Ooo! So how was that for a sharp turn? How's Kate going to react? Is she going to hate Jack? Or is she going to do something to Ana Lucia? An what is she going to do to Kate?

Next Chapter guys… R&R PLEASE!
