I felt so terrible for her. She had no idea what happened. Going through these personality changes must be scary. I couldn't imagine what it would be like to lose hours or days of your life. "Oh sweetheart," I said as I smoothed her hair back. "We did almost lose you. It was the scariest thing I've ever been through. Do you want to know what happened? It's up to you. You're mature enough and it's your right to know, but if you don't want to, that's okay, too."

Little Sarah
Little Sarah thought about it a little bit, did she want to know what happened? all she remembered was going in and going down. Than waking up here, so something must have happened between than and now. "No i don't want to know, as long as i am ok now." Little Sarah smiles, "Are you ok Heidi you look tired." Little Sarah sat down on Heidi's lap and smiled. "And i am sorry if i scared you,"

"No i don't want to know, as long as i am ok now. Are you ok Heidi you look tired."
"Do I?" I asked rhetorically, knowing I probably looked like crap. I was exhausted and would do just about anything for a decent bath.
Little Sarah sat down on Heidi's lap and smiled. "And i am sorry if i scared you,"
I hugged her to me. "You have nothing to be sorry about. I should have been there. We promised to look out for each other and I left you alone. Just promise me you won't wander too far from me at any time, okay? Especially if you go swimming. The ocean can have a mind of it's own sometimes."

Sarah frowned, Heidi was blaming herself and it was not her fault. Sarah should have known better, but something shinny hit her eye and that A.D.D kicked in. she couldn't help it. "Its not your fault Heidi. sometimes i just forget things. On top of my many other problems i have A.D.D. So i saw something shiny and i had to get it." Sarah smiled, "So no more blaming yourself or i will have Mr. Floppers beat you up."

I gave a mock gasp. "Sweet, innocent Mr. Floppers wouldn't do such a thing! Look how adorable he is," I said as I took Mr. Floppers from little Sarah's hands and had him attack her with kisses as I made kissy sounds, then started laughing as I handed him back to little Sarah. "You're dealing with more than anybody should have to," I said, turning serious again. "What's important is that you're here. Are you feeling better now?" I asked, wondering if the nightmare she'd been having was still affecting her.

Sarah laughed when Heidi had Mr. Floppers Attack her, “Stop it heidi!” she laughed and Giggled, when she did she played and tossed a Bunny fist at Heidi. “I’m doing just fine, I promise.” Sarah Grinned and hugged Heidi. “Now get some sleep, that’s an order.” Sarah smiled and Crawled off Heidi’s lap and curled up to sleep again. “I’m sleepy.”

"Yes ma'am," I said in a mock serious tone as I gave a salute. "Sleep sounds like a great idea." I pulled the blankets over her and Mr. Floppers and smiled down at her. "I'll be right here in case you need anything."
I crawled back to my spot and lay down at her feet on my side, facing the flap. The sun had begun fading since I'd last looked. I took another couple of long blinks and then started to drift off to sleep again.

After several hours of a restless, dreamless sleep due to the restless sleeping little Sarah, the commotions outside, and worst of all, the sounds of agony from the man who'd had the shrapnel in his side, I finally opened my eyes to see it was dark out. I gave up on trying to sleep and decided to see what was going on out there. I grabbed my airplane blanket and stepped out.

Rummaging around in her backpack, I found the pills, popped the lid, and shook one into the palm of my hand. Twenty-five left I noted as I looked into the bottle before snapping the lid back on. That's plenty enough. Help will be here way before 25 days.
I looked up at little Sarah and handed her the pill and a bottle of water, noting her demeanor since I mentioned going down to the shore. I couldn't blame her for being scared. If it had been me who almost drowned the day before, I'd be leery of going near the water again, too. "Sarah, are you okay? We're not going to go far into the ocean, just the shoreline. The water won't be past your knees. Is that okay?" I tried to quickly think of an alternative. "Or I can try to find a bucket?" Who knows, maybe there was one around here. If not, I'd find something that could pass as one because I wasn't about to drag someone into a situation they feared because I sure as hell wouldn't want to be.

Little Sarah
Taking her pill she sighed, Heidi could tell something was wrong with her. And like a good sitter she knew the water was the reason. She looked up at her and smiled, "I don't need a bath, i had one when i almost drowned." she sat down with Mr. Floppers and hugged him close.

I took a deep breath and let it out slowly as I sat down and faced her. "You don't have to do anything you don't want to do. If you'd like, you can wait for me at the water's edge and as I said, it would be no problem for me to find a bucket so you can wash up a little. If you do change your mind and feel like stepping into the water a little bit, I'll be right there next to you. Okay?" I asked with a reassuring smile as I stood up and held out my hand.

Little Sarah
She had been awake for hours, she couldn’t sleep on a hard surface for long periods of time. The ground wasn’t something she was use to sleep on. The last couple of nights she had been fine, but last night was just not working for her. She longed for her nice fluffy bed, the sweet lullaby’s her mum use to sing to her.
With a long sigh Sarah sat up and stretched, kissing Mr. Floppers a good morning. Sarah couldn’t help but wonder if the others were back yet, they left yesterday to gather parts. We can only hope they find something.

-Heidi and Little Sarah Enter from Heidi's shelter-
LITTLE SARAH
"No its more than that, he's really gone." Sarah took a deep breath, "when he was talking to me i could hardly hear him. and its strange but i feel like a heavy something has been lifted off my shoulders." Sarah wasn't sure what that something was, but she knew it was all going to be different from now on. she sat down on her blanket and looked up at Heidi, "You think i'm crazy don't you?"

I started unzipping the side pocket of her duffel bag as she spoke.
You think I'm crazy don't you?
I stopped and considered her a moment then shook my head. "No. I don't think you're crazy." I reached into the side pocket and pulled out the bottle of pills. "Everyone's got quirks."

"No. I don't think you're crazy. Everyone's got quirks." Sarah shook her head at the bottle of Pills.
"I don't need those, i feel fine." Sarah shrugged, she felt perfectly fine. "there all gone," Sarah sipped some water and hugged Mr. Floppers close.

"But..." I looked down at the pill bottle in thought. The instructions were to take one each morning without fail. I wasn't sure what the full effect of the medicine was but just because little Sarah couldn't 'hear' Floppers didn't mean she shouldn't take them. Should it? People couldn't just be cured overnight. I looked back to little Sarah and said, "I think you should still take one though, just in case." I unscrewed the cap and shook a pill out, holding it out to little Sarah.
