Charlie burst through the hatch's airlock; he jogged up the dimly lit hall way closely followed by the heavily set man carrying Sawyer on his shoulders.
"Jack!" his voice echoed down the hall ways, he jogged towards a orange glowing light just ahead of him. It lead to a room, the far right was a set of bunk beds in front of what seemed to a be a window, to the left a book self all, doors and more hall ways lead of from the room "Jack!" he called out again. Jack emerged from one of the adjacent corridor,
"Charlie what…." The large man carrying Sawyer stood behind Charlie
"We got a problem" Charlie panted, pressing his palms on his legs and leaning forward
"Get him on the bed" Jack ordered, the large man gently lowered Sawyer on to the bottom bunk bed, his head lolled to one side, Jack listened intently to his breathing, it was shallow, and he pressed his hand against his forehead. It was like touching a freshly boiled kettle; the sweat pored from Sawyers head.
"What's going on?" a voice called from behind Charlie. Locke had entered the room
"We need to get his temperature down, help get him into the bathroom" he asked the large man and he lifted Sawyer and carried him to the bathroom, followed by Jack
"What shall I do?" Charlie asked
"Go find Kate she needs to know"
Charlie sighed and jogged up the corridor he just came from.
He pushed the door open with force and was immediately faced with the greenness of the jungle, plats, trees and shrubbery towered over his head, he sprinted through the foliage, leaves smacking him in the face, and twigs' braking under his feet, the air was cold and sharp and his breathing was becoming painful. He came into a clearing, surrounded by mango trees; up the tallest tree Kate was pulling Mangos off branches and placing them into her bag
"Kate, you have to come with me this is important!"
"Charlie I'm a little busy" she answered pulling off another mango
"Kate its Sawyer"
At the name of Sawyer she jumped out of her tree "What do you mean? Where is he?"
"Down in the hatch with Jack, he's been shot"
Kate eyes widened with the look of horror, she dumped the bag of Mangos in Charlie's hands and ran into the jungle towards the Hatch.
"Is he going to be ok?" Kate asked Jack glancing over at the sleeping Sawyer; she had been in the hatch for no less than 15 minuets
"He'll be just fine, it's lucky you brought him here Mr…."
"Eko, Mr Eko" the man said "I, along with many others was survivors of the tail part of fight 8.15…"
"Sydney to LA… but I though there were no survivors" Kate said astonished
Mr Echo smiled "then you are greatly mistaken"
"How many of you are there?" Locke asked
"There are four of us now"
"Now?... You mean there were more" Jack asked
"Yes, I think there were about 30 of us… but one night the others came and took many survivors, we found Sawyer and two other men a few days later"
"Jin and Michael" Jack said
"Yes. They were leading us to your camp when…" Mr Eko trailed off "another one of our survivors went missing, our leader made a grave mistake and killed one of your own"
"Who?" Locke questioned
"Tall, blond, and an Arab man was with her"
"Shannon" Kate whispered
"Yeah and that murderous bitch has got Syide at gun point" a voice came from behind them. Michael stood with Charlie in the door way
"What?" Kate exclaimed
"Ana Lucia made a grave mistake" Mr Eko defended her
"Yeah so she holds an innocent man at gun point for no reason!" Michael said his voice rising, anger burning in his eyes.
"Ana Lucia?" Jack echoed
"You know here?" Locke asked
Jack nodded
"Jack they took Walt… The others took my son" Michael said his voice shaking.
"Take me Ana Lucia, right now" Jack ordered.
