Claire's feet throbbed, but there was nothing really she could do. Charlie had been acting so strange lately, and she had no idea why. He HAD said that they were friends after the crash, and she did think quite fondly of him, or so she implied in her journal. Maybe...maybe he was just afraid of her like everyone else was. She knows they all think

((im just joining in, hope you don't mind))

Adrienne struggled with the pile of wood, she knew she'd taken too much but she didn't want to have to go back for a second load. She hated that jungle- it gave her the creeps.

Suddenly her foot caught on a tree root and she pitched forward, she tried to keep hold of the wood and not trip but failed misterably. She let out a grunt of pain, hoping no one had been seen her.

((of course not!!! I haven't been here in a while! hii!))

Claire turned suddenly at the grunt coming from behind her. She slowly lifted herself to her feet, the throbbing disappearing as her heart started to beat loudly. Who was it? Was someone trying to get her again? She looked around slowly for Charlie.
"Hello? Is someone there?"
Her voice cracked as she asked. One arm wrapped around her stomach protectively, not even a mother yet, and still thinking about her child. She took slow large steps towards the bushes in which the noise had come from, almost shaking in fear.

"Ow," Adrienne muttered, she looked down at the twigs in contempt. Suddenly she heard the sound of someone stepping through the trees. She grabbed a large piece of wood, she spun around just as Claire came into the clearing.

"Oh," Adrienne said, she loosened her grip on her piece of wood. "Sorry," she apologized, "I tripped," she smiled, though Claire still looked frightened.

Claire let out a deep breath of relief, still holding onto her stomach and leaning against a nearby tree.
"No--it's fine."
She smiled faintly inspecting the young girl. She couldn't seem to remember anything about this girl. Nor did she believe that she had written about her in her journal.
"I know this may seem...strange...but....do I know you?"

((I didn't realize I replied with my other sign in name... my bad!!))

Adrienne thought on that for a while. "Not really, me and my mom lived down at the beach, but then you went to the caves." She shrugged. Adrienne remembered Claire but she had never really talked to her.

"So, what are you doing?" Adrienne wondered.

[__lostclaire]

"Oh okay good...I feel bad. All these people that I am supposed to remember..."
She smiled faintly, glad to start with a clean slate with the young girl. She glanced down at her things, her journal, the flowers she had gathered. It wasn't much, but it was how she spent most of her time.
"Nothing really. Just keeping busy. What are you doing?"

[not__from_here]

Adrienne snorted. "Trying to make myself useful." She picked up a few stray pieces of wood. "Personally, I'd rather lay on the beach than go in there," Adrienne looked over her shoulder into the jungle. "I don't like it in there." Adrienne shook herself, and remember what Claire had just gone through in that jungle. She winced, "sorry. Sometimes my mouth gets away from my brain." She tried to think of another topic, "so, have you thought of any names? For when the time comes?"

Shannon wouldn't deny she was searching for someone to talk to, but she wouldn't admit it either. As she eyed the other survivors, she wondered how many of them knew the half of what was going on, not many seemed to care. She was so caught up in the lives of the others that she didn't notice the voices in front of her. It took her a few moments to register the two girls, one not as familiar as the other one.

"Was I interrupting something?" She doubted it, what kind of important conversation could they possibly have.
