Oh my God! I am sooo sorry for not updating last weekend! I've been really busy, but I hope to udate at least twice this weekend. I hope you enjoy!

MAX'S POV

When we made it to land, everyone was exhausted.

For a few minutes we all just laid on the sand of the beach, catching our breaths.

Lulu rolled over and stared at me.

"What?" I asked, looking right back.

She looked at the sky, smiled, and jumped up.

"We're on a deserted island! How cool is that?!"

I laugh at her and sit up.

"So you forgive-" I started.

"Not even close," Lulu deadpanned. "Buuut, I have plenty of time to get you back."

"Should I be-" I tried to ask.

"Yes. Yes, you should be scared for your life," she replies, winking at me.

I glance warily around me at everybody getting up and forming a big circle.

"Come on, let's go," I say, grabbing her hand and walking to the circle.

There was a bulky man talking as we walked up.

"Okay, so I say we split up into two groups. One looking for food, and the other searching for shelter."

Everybody nodded in agreement.

"Well, then let's just number off. Ones will search for food, and twos will look for shelter."

We all lined up in a straight line, and the man started counting.

"One, two, one, two, one, two, one, two..."

When he got to us, "...one, two..."

"Wait," I say. "We have to be together."

The man looks from me to Lulu.

"No we don't. Continue on," Lulu says, smiling at him.

The man smiles back and continues down the line.

I turned to her and crossed my arms over my chest.

"Yessss?" she drags out the word.

"What was that?"

"Max, you don't have to watch over me. I'm a big girl."

I sigh, "Well, will you at least switch jobs with me?"

Lulu snorts, "Not a chance. You're on food duty, and I'm on shelter duty. End. Of. Story," she punctured the last three worlds at me.

I threw my hands up in defeat, "Fine. Have it your way."

Lulu just smiles at me as the man comes back.

"Okay everybody, let's split."

I gave Lulu one last liik before I walked off into the jungle-thing.

LULU'S POV

I might have considered switching tasks with Max if he wouldn't have told Alex, the bulky man, that we needed to be together.

I can handle myself. I've done it before. Without Max.

So while he's climbing trees, I will be lifting trees.

Well, logs and such.

There aren't any mountains where caves could be so we have to resort to building our shelter.

Let's just say architecture is one of my best qualities.

"Hey, Alex! Come here!"

Alex turned and ran to me.

"Yeah, Little Lulu?"

I laugh at my new nickname.

"What kind of wood are you picking up?"

He looked around, "Uhhhhh, wood."

I chuckle and walk up to a tiny woman who really should be on food duty.

"Hey, Anne, can I see that wood?"

"Sure," she replied, handing me some of the collected wood.

I looked it over.

"Alex, this isn't going to be strong enough. We need something more like bamboo."

Alex nodded his head, "I don't know where that could be."

"Here, gather some people to come with us to search for stronger wood, and have the rest here to continue gathering weak wood for a fire."

"Sounds good," Alex replied.

"HEY! EVERYBODY COME HERE!" Alex yelled. I had to cover my ears, and my eardrums still suffered.

When everybody was gathered around us alex started, "Okay, we are going to neeed stronger wood so half of us are going with Lulu to find that, and the rest are staying hwere with Anne to gather all of this wead stuff for fire wood."

Once again Alex went around numbering everbody off.

"Ones go with Anne; twos come with Lulu and me."

Everybody split up into their groups.

Alex turned to me, "Lead the way, Little Lulu."

I nodded my head and turned to the trees in front of me.

"Well, we should probably go the way that looks the strongest."

Good thing hiking is another one of my specialties.

As we trudged through the jungle looking for stronger wood, it was like babysitting likttle two-year-olds.

Some of them didn't know how to walk in the jungle.

Eventually, Alex just assigned partners.

Experienced hikes with inexperienced ones.

We had been walking for about an hour when we entered a clearing full of nothing else but bamboo.

Where in the world are we. Bamboo should not be on this island...

There's that! I hope you guys liked this chapter. I will update this again this weekend! Thanks for reading!
