Little Sarah's Shelter Location found in box G3 below: Each box is 3 miles by 3 miles. It takes an hour to walk 3 miles. But also keep in mind that hiking (like that really steep hill to get to higher ground) will take a heck of a lot longer and that if you're running (like from some jungle thing), that you'll get somewhere faster.

"Good morning Mr. Floppers..." Sarah smiled and gave Mr. Floppers a kiss on his cheek. "...Lets go see if anyone needs help for the day." Sarah smiled and headed outside to see if anyone could use her help.

~ Little Sarah~
She had feel sleep, that was all she could do these days. what else could a little girl do, she couldn't help with certain things she was to small, and she couldn't go on hikes because she was too small. she and Mr. Floppers were all alone, and she had no one to talk to.
Stretching awake she yawned and knew she had to do something, she had to keep herself moving or she was going to go stir crazy. Ok so not a good thing to think about when you are crazy, but Sarah couldn’t help think about what her aunt said. Did she belong in an institution? Did she belong locked up and never to see the outside again?
Sometimes Sarah looked at things, and thought about the Logically. If anyone else did what Sarah did, they be locked away in an instant. So she should too and than she thought about her sickness. How her mother said these things weren’t her fault, but who’s were they? Were they her mother, father? Maybe her aunt the one who wanted to lock her away, maybe she was crazy too? Sarah hated this, she hated being alone with no one she knew… well she had Mr. Floppers. She could always rely on him, he was her best friend.
Sarah was bored and she didn’t want to stay in her tent all day, so she stood and stretched again wiping the sleep from her eyes. “Come on Mr. Floppers lets go meet the people…” She smiled and hugged him before exiting into the camp site.

***enters from G3 - Area of Survivors Camp***
I held back the flap of her shelter and let her go in first. "Here we are, nice, comfy sand mattress," I joked. I looked around the inside of her shelter, but with the moon as the only light source, it wasn't easy to see. Everything seemed to be pretty much in order, which wasn't too difficult when you had a limited amount of worldly possessions. "You've built yourself a very nice shelter. I'm very impressed," I said in all honesty.
I picked up the blanket she'd been using as a pillow and quickly refolded it, then straightened out the blanket she used to cover herself, leaving it flipped open for her to lie down in. "Okay hun, hop in," I said as I patted the ground."

Little Sarah
Sarah did just that, she laid down and hugged Mr. Floppers tight. She wanted to remain warm so she kept on her jacket. And added and extra pair of pants before actually laying down. She wanted to be toasty while she slept. There might have been a doctor on the island but she didn’t want to get sick. “Heidi,” she smiled Bright. “Thank you.”

"You're very welcome," I said, returning the smile as I folded the blanket over to cover her and tucked it under her. "There. Snug as a bug in a rug." I smoothed her hair off her face. "You going to be okay?" I asked before getting up to leave. I didn't want her to think I was in a hurry and it wasn't as if I had somewhere else to be.

“Could you stay and sing me a lullaby,” Than she added quickly, “only if you want too of course.” Little Sarah gave the puppy dog eyes in hoping it would convince Heidi to sing.
Mr. Floppers
“O yes please sing for us,” Mr. Floppers like this lady Heidi, because she too cared for Little Sarah, and as long as Sarah was happy, so was mr. floppers.

Her request that I sing caught me off guard. I felt that familiar butterflies in the stomach nervousness. "Oh. Well, um," Come on Heidi, suck it up, I thought to myself. It's not like little Sarah would judge me. Plus it was dark enough for me to not see her watching as I tended to be uncomfortable when I was being watched as if on stage or something. "Sure I can. Any requests? I'm not sure if I remember any real lullabies, but if you throw some titles out to me, it might jog my memory. I also know a lot of Disney songs, if you like those."

“You can sing me whatever you like, I don’t mind.” Sarah smiled, she was happy that Heidi would sing for her. She wasn’t sure if she would. Sarah felt a little strange asking her to sing, But Sarah was glad when Heidi Quickly agreed. “It doesn’t matter was long as its pretty, and I am sure it will be.” she smiled.

"Okay," I said with a nervous laugh. I wracked my brain. It'd have to be something slower and more mellow so she could fall asleep to it. I decided on one of the Disney songs I'd most recently heard on my iPod, You'll Be In My Heart from the Tarzan film. "Okay, I've got one. Now close your eyes and I'll sing to you." As soon as she closed her eyes, I began to sing, quietly and with a slight nervousness at first but I quickly warmed up to it, still keeping my voice low enough so that it didn't carry too far from the shelter.
Come, stop your crying, It will be all right. Just take my hand, Hold it tight.
I will protect you From all around you. I will be here, Don't you cry.
For one so small, You seem so strong. My arms will hold you, Keep you safe and warm. This bond between us Can't be broken. I will be here, Don't you cry.
'Cause you'll be in my heart, Yes, you'll be in my heart, From this day on, Now and forever more.
You'll be in my heart, No matter what they say, You'll be here in my heart, always
I waited to see if she'd fallen asleep yet.

Closing her eyes she waited to hear Heidi sing, she smiled when she heard the nicest voice ever (besides her mothers of course) she loved the movie Tarzan and that song too. So it worked out very well. As Heidi continued to sing she felt herself getting sleepier and sleepier, and right before Heidi ended the song she felt herself slip deeper and deeper into sleep and finally she was out like a light.
Mr. Floppers
Mr. floppers Decided that two singers would be better than one, so he sang along too… “You'll be in my heart, No matter what they say, You'll be here in my heart, always“ he smiled.

*Enters Shelter with Heidi and Cyrus*
Little Sarah
She wanted to stay up and watch the Grow-ups but she was so tired that she laid down and wrapped herself up in her little blanket.

I knelt down and adjusted her blanket then brushed her hair back. Poor thing was so exhausted.
After a few moments, I stood up again and faced Cyrus, placing a hand on his arm. "Thanks for your help. Again," I said with a small smile. "I think I lost track of how many favors I owe you."

"Thanks for your help. Again, I think I lost track of how many favors I owe you."
"Don't mention it. Well, actually, you can re-pay me in minutes of battin' eyelashes." he replied, trying not to focus too much on her arm on his.

I held back a laugh since little Sarah was trying to sleep and lightly hit his arm. "You're crazy," I said quietly with a smile. "Now go, enjoy the rest of your day. You've done more than enough for us today." I turned my tone more serious. "And I mean it. You let me know if you need anything. Anytime, okay?"
I covered a yawn. My adrenaline level, which had been all that was keeping me awake, was finally back to normal and I was practically swaying on my feet. "I'm gonna lie down now," I said with big blinks as I laid down on my side at little Sarah's feet, scrunched up in the small space. It would be hard for little Sarah to get past me without waking me up. That meant I could get some decent sleep rather than one of those restless light sleeps where you're always on alert. At this point, I was too damn tired to even try to sleep lightly. As soon as I rested my head on my arm, I was out.

"And I mean it. You let me know if you need anything. Anytime, okay?"
"Sure, Heidikins." he said, smiling warmly, watching as she fell asleep. He reached down, and brushed a strand of hair out of her eyes, and then walked out of the shelter.
He glanced around, and saw Ethan leaving for the jungle, axe in hand. He folded his arms, and then decided to follow.

Little Sarah
The dream of a sleeping child, what is it like? well little Sarah must have been having one hell of a dream. At first she slept peacefully but a few hours later maybe less she started to toss and turn…
Mr. Floppers
“There there Sarah, shh its ok. Everything is ok.”

Just as I was drifting off, it started pouring. It sounded so far away in my dream state. Not more than a minute later, I was woken up by water dripping on my face. I sat up and looked seeing a small rip in the roof near the door where water was coming through. I gave a small growl at the rip at being woken up and moved a bit farther from the door, wiping my face with the hem of my shirt.
I fell right back asleep and was just entering dreamland again when I was awoken by a swift kick in the back. "Ow," I said belatedly as I sat up and looked at my surroundings in confusion before remembering where I was. Little Sarah was tossing and turning. I became more alert and concerned as I crawled over beside little Sarah and lightly shook her. "Sarah, honey, wake up." She continued to toss about. "Sweetheart, wake up, it's just a bad dream."

Sarah felt someone Grab a hold of her and shake her, her eyes popped open and the first thing she noticed was herself in the dark. She Grabbed a hold of Mr. Floppers. Than she looked around and saw Heidi, she smiled. “I was having a bad dream, there was lots of water.”
Little Sarah didn’t know it wasn’t a dream, she remembered going in but she didn’t remember getting out. “I was in the water, I thought I died…” she hugged Mr. Floppers tight.
