Part 3
Puck lay in the dark cavern. Bernard was on the opposite end organizing some supplies.
Puck: Bernard right?
Bernard: Yes.
Puck: You know for people who seem to be on edge aren't keeping secrets from strangers.
Bernard: Well son are you one we should be keeping secrets from?
Puck: I'm just speaking freely.
There was a knock on the metal door. Bernard went to open in and Michael, Jin, and Sawyer walked in along with Ana, Libby, Cindy and Eko.
Michael: I thought you said there were twenty-three of you?
Libby: There was.
Jin helped Sawyer limp in.
Bernard and Libby walked over and helped Puck up.
Puck: Hey.
Michael was still sad, but seeing Puck gave him a smile and everyone walked over to him.
Sawyer seemed okay but needed a seat and took Puck's. Puck never liked Sawyer. Although they had very much in common, they were both never proud of their father. Sawyer's father lost out on a deal a while ago and took it like any pour soul would; he shot his wife and himself. Both went by a name that wasn't really theirs. Puck always thought that was his father's name not his. Sawyer was the name of the man that cheated his family. To be honest Sawyer's life is a real tragedy. He became the man he hated.
Puck: Are you alright?
Sawyer: I'll be fine.
Puck: What happened? How did?
Michael: Sawyer and I were floating out there for about a day, by the time we got to the shore Jin was tied up running to us yelling "others". Then we saw these guys. They attacked us and put us in a ditch. But then we spoke and they told us it was misunderstanding.
Sawyer: Oh, yeah, throwing us in a hole that is a huge misunderstanding.
Jin spoke something in Korean directing to Sawyer.
Sawyer: Yeah, yeah, fisherman.
Michael: What happened to you? Your arm?
Puck: During the struggle I got Quinn off the raft and we made it to the shore by morning. Quinn and I were heading back to cam when I got shot. And then they shot Quinn. She didn't make it.
Sawyer sighed.
Michael: I'm so sorry Noah.
Puck: What did they tell you?
Sawyer: Same sob story I bet they told you.
Puck: Do you believe them?
Michael: well why shouldn't we? They have stewardess from the plane.
Sawyer: What they have is a girl in an outfit.
Puck: I've been talking with a few of them and they know some of our own.
Michael: So did Ethan, they're clever, but what choice do we have? Whether they are on our side or not they aren't going to let us go on our own, we have to bring them back to camp.
Puck: What about Quinn?
Bernard: We'll help you bury her son.
Puck looked back at the group and nodded.
