"Michael!" Sawyer said as Jack, Kate, James, Frank and Michael came back to the beach.
People were surrounding the small group. "Why to hell did you bring him back Jackass?" He yelled.
"Well there's a nickname I never really missed. I mean I liked Doc, but Jackass?" He whispered in her ear. She just gave him a cold look and turned away.
"Sawyer, Michael came back to help us. His son is still on the island, as Ben knows." She looked at Ben who smiled slightly. "He won't hurt you, I promise you that."
"Okay, Freckles, I'll take your word for that, so if that's all cleared up I'll ask the question everyone is dieing the ask, who's the kid?"
James grabbed Kate's and pressed up against her hip. "Mommy, is he going to hurt me?" He whispered.
Sawyer raised his eyebrow "Mommy?"
"Don't start Sawyer." She said giving her son a reassuring hug.
He smirked at her. "What are you Freckles 23? Seems you had a kid early."
"I'm thirty si…I mean I'm 27 Sawyer, what were you 23 when Clementine was born?"
"How do you know about her?" He gave her a harsh cold look.
"I was friends with Cassidy, me and her used to do cons together, and then she told me she was pregnant and the father, as in you took all her money, so I told her to turn you in…tell me Sawyer did you go to jail?" She raised an eye brow at him.
"Sawyer…mommy do you mean as in James Ford?" James said backing away.
"Yeah, Babe James Ford." Kate stepped towards her son and kneeled down. "Where's your sister?"
"Ask Jack." He said taking another step back.
She turned to him, "Okay Jack, no more lying… what happened and who brought you here and where is my daughter?"
Jack shook his head. "I don't know where Claire is, before I was knocked unconscious She was in my arms,"
"Knocked on conscious? By who?"
Jack looked closely at her before taking a deep breathe, "He wasn't lying Kate,"
"Jack what are you talking about?"
"Hurley, he wasn't lying."
"Dude what wasn't I lying about?" Hugo asked stepping forward.
"He wasn't lying about seeing Charlie in the convenient store was he?" Kate said shaking her head.
"No…he wasn't. I…I saw him too he sent me back Kate…" He shook his head, "He sent us back." He looked at James.
"Kate, sorry to interrupt…but you have a phone call from the past." Dan said handing the phone to Kate.
"Hello?" She said kneeling down to sat beside her son.
"Kate? Due is that you?"
"Hurley, how are you phoning me?"
"We got Ben's phony thingy…the satellite phone thing, like the one we had on the island, you know that Dan had before Jack…you know…killed him…"
"Oh yeah, listen Hurley why are you phoning me?" Kate looked up at Hurley who had a weird look on his face as did everyone else.
"Because, Jack went missing, and they kind of found your daughter in your house…all alone…and they also found your husband…um…well-"
"They found him dead." She said.
"Yeah, sorry…well anyways they gave Claire to Sun. And Kate um James…James is missing too."
""I'm here Uncle Hurley, um I guess it's kind of late, but happy birthday." James said smiling.
"Yeah, Hurley I'm…I'm here too." Jack said aloud.
"Oh, dude, you
scared me, thank god! Listen Kate, Jack we'll get you back, I
promise we'll get Ben to bring you back."
"Hurley, I don't know how you're going to do that, but thank you, so much." Then the phone died.
She handed it back to Dan and sighed.
"So Kate, never listened to your husband and now look at you. You're a widow, sitting being stared by a bunch of confused old friends." Ben said with a smirk.
Kate cracked and jumped at him. She wrapped her hands around his neck. "Why'd you kill him? Why did you kill my husband?" She screamed. "Why'd you kill Kevin?" She couldn't hold him very long; she broke down crying and couldn't seem to stop. She sobbed long and hard into her hands.
James walked over to Ben. "Mr. Linus I always knew you were a bad man, but I never thought you were evil." He spit on Ben then sat down beside mother and wrapped his arms around her.
"Kate, you care to tell us what in hell is going on?" John said.
Kate looked up at him. "No…" Is all she said before she stood up and ran. She ran into the jungle, she like she always did. But this time it wasn't to save her life, or to save anyone else's, it was to end it, because she knew that she couldn't relive any of it so she ran towards the cliff preparing to jump, and that's just what she did, she jumped. She jumped over the cliff and plunged into the rocks below.

Hurley smashed the phone against the wall trying to get it to work, but it was no use. It was dead.
He got up and went to his car which was in the parking garage. He got in and he drove. He drove down the highway well aware that he was breaking the speed limit. He parked in the parking lot of the animal hospital and barged into a room were Benjamin Linus stood talking to Sayid.
"Man, why did you put James and Jack on the island?" Hurley asked smugly.
"I didn't…Charlie did." HE said with a smile.
"Charlie is dead man." Hurley looked at Ben.
"You and I both know that's not true Hurley, so stop lying to yourself and accept that he will always be alive."
"Man, you are a good liar." Hurley replied throwing the phone at him.
"I just talked to Kate, and Jack and James?"
"Yeah, and Kate just killed herself." Sayid said opening a door behind him. "Which brought her back in this time."
"Dude. How…how could that happen?" Hurley said seeing the unconscious Kate with her chest heaving on the floor.
"Once you go to Island you can't die, because once you die there you come back here, once you die there you come back here."
"Then why did Kate go back in time?"
"She didn't… she just think she did." Ben smiled wickedly.
"Dude what are you talking about?"
