Thanks for reviewing!
"Is Mac going to be alright?" Lindsay asked as they walked through the trees.
Hawkes took a minute to answer. He knew the odds were against Mac if he wasn't treated soon but what was he supposed to tell Lindsay?"
"You can tell me you know, I'm not going to freak out." Lindsay told him, watching him think.
"He's losing a lot of blood, if we don't find help soon then he might not last much longer." Hawkes told her honestly.
"Who do you think shot him?" Lindsay asked.
"The same person who tampered with your kit, some one or some people who don't want us to be here. Don't worry about…"
"Hawkes?" Lindsay shouted into the darkness, Hawkes appeared to have disappeared right in front of her.
"Lindsay!" Lindsay could hear Hawkes groaning faintly, he sounded in pain. "Down here."
Sure enough the light from Lindsay's torch hit Hawkes who was now half way down a hill, leaning against the trunk of the tree which was hanging over the rest of the hill. Just inches in front of her was the steep drop down.
"Hawkes are you hurt?" She called down to him edging closer to the edge.
"I can't move, I hit my head and I think my leg is broken." He told her.
"OK, I'm coming down, hang on." Lindsay said walking slowly down the hill towards Hawkes.
"Be careful!" Hawkes told her. The warning came too late though; Lindsay slipped and tumbled down the hill past where Hawkes was lying, landing right at the bottom in a heap.
"Lindsay?" Hawkes shouted as loud as he could.

"Did you hear that?" Danny asked stopping. "Sounded like someone shouting."
"Yeah I heard it." Stella told him. "I think it was Hawkes, it sounded like he was shouting Lindsay."
"Do you think she's in danger?" Danny asked no one in particular.
"I don't know but Hawkes sounded in pain." Stella told him gravely.
"It's not worth thinking about it, we'll find out soon enough." Flack told them as they led the way to where they thought they had heard Hawkes shout from, Danny shouting both Hawkes and Lindsay's names along the way.

"Hawkes, I'm fine." Lindsay told him from the bottom of the hill. "My wrist hurts but apart from that, no major damage done."
"Are you sure?" Hawkes asked.
"Yeah, I'm gonna try and get back up to you." Lindsay told him standing up clumsily.
"Lindsay, I don't feel too good." Hawkes mumbled.
"Hang in there, I'm on my way." Lindsay called scrambling up the hill using her uninjured hand to steady herself every so often.
"Hawkes?" She shouted as she reached him, trying to keep him awake but failing miserably.
"Damn it!" She said noticing the deep wound on his leg, which was bleeding quite heavily.
"Don't do this to me!" She mumbled to herself, taking her jacket off and wrapping it tightly around the wound like she had seen him wrap the bandages around Mac's shoulder.
She sat helplessly for what seemed like ages, shivering in time with Hawkes; neither of them was wearing more than a T-shirt.
"Hawkes? Lindsay?"
She could recognise that voice anywhere.
"Danny?" She shouted, she could now see him stood at the top of the hill.
"Lindsay where are you?"
"I'm down the hill." Hawkes and me fell down. He's unconscious." Lindsay called to him relieved to have been found.
"Hang on in there." Danny called down to her.
"You need to go and find Mac and Stella, Mac has been shot." Lindsay called up to him.
"They found us!" Stella shouted.
"Is Mac OK?"
"He's been taken to hospital, he's in safe hands now." She told her.
"Lindsay we've got a plan to get you and Hawkes back up here." Flack called down to her.
