~Sarah~
Sarah watches as People Gatheres some ways away, she held mr. Floppers tight, cause she knew what was going on. There was a Service going on, some kind of goodbye to those who died. When Ana came over to tell Heidi, she over heard about collecting firewood and clearing the beach. so she placed two and two together.
She wanted to go, but she wasn't sure if the older grown-ups would let her. Probally give some lame excuse like 'your to young for something like this.' but she would get over there, she knew death wasn't easy but she also knew that it had to be faced.
~Mr. Floppers~
Mr. Floppers gave comfort when no one else could, so he magically made little sarah all better. Mr. Floppers knew sarah was a brave girl and would protect him from all bad things. Like from that guy in the tree who tried to eat him. That was a scary moment, and what a weirdo was all mr. Floppers could think of.

Cyrus was heading to-wards the fuselage, which was now a towering pillar of fire, stretching into the sky. Beautiful, almost.
He caught a glimpse in the corner of his eye, and looked over at who he recognized to be Heidi. And some guy, helping her. He shrugged, and looked away, about to continue on his path.
Then, he took another look, this time, more at the guy. Handsome. Charming smile. And he could tell by his eyes what this new guy was thinking about. He'd seen dozens of them.
People like him didn't care about women, they cared about how quickly they could get into a woman's pants, then move on to the next girl they could fool. He clenched his fist slightly, and he'd seen one too many female friends who'd had their heart broken by these one-track mind jerks.
He didn't blame anyone for being attracted to a person because of their looks. Initially, it's only looks, because you don't know the person, but these types...they could break a woman's heart, telling her what she wanted to hear, and then leave a mess behind. He wasn't going to let it happen to another female friend.
"Howdy there, Heidi-darlin'." he said, with a smile. "Need help?" He threw a smile to Heidi, and then gave a different look to Beau. A dangerous, sharp look, right in the man's eyes. A look that said everything. "Don't worry, man. I got it." he said, in a cold tone, reaching over to take the tarp.

Before I could thank him and tell him that it wasn't necessary, that this guy and I had it handled, Cyrus had taken over and basically told the guy to shove off. I'd looked up in time to catch the look Cyrus threw at the man but the tone of his voice was enough to realize why the man smirked and walked away.
I stopped tying off the next pole and glared at Cyrus for being so rude. "Why'd you do that?"

"Why'd you do that?"
"Do what?" he asked, trying to play it dumb. When he saw her expression, he sighed. "Guys like that just bug me. The charmers. The seducers."

"I know exactly what kind of guy he is," I said as I continued tying off the end. "I'm not easily charmed. I can handle him."
I walked over to the next pole and picked up the tarp, stretching it tight and reached for another vine from my pocket but there were no more. "Could you hand me another vine?" I asked, nodding to the vines lying on the sand.

"I've seen doctors of medicine get their pants charmed off by those jerks. No matter how smart the woman is, those guys can be very convincing, with the deep, dreamy eyes and soothing, sexy voice." he replied, picking up the vine and handing it to her.

"It takes more than that to charm the pants off of me," I said with a smile as I took the vine he held out. "Besides, I'm a very good reader of people. I knew his type as soon as I saw him and I don't get too comfy with his type, but I do like to make friends."

I sat alone just off the distance from anyone near me. My head was in between my knees as I rocked back and forth. I was gunna loose it soon, I had kept my composure for a couple of days which was a new record under the circumstances. Two days and I knew no one. Everyone was chatting and talking away like they were old friends. Frankly I didn't care to talk to anyone in the begging, but now... it was driving me crazy being alone.
I grabbed the guitar that was sitting next to me. I had found it in the water, it must have fallen out of the plane. Music always calmed me down. I struck the strings with my only pik. "Oh I get by with a little help from my friends, mmm I get high with a little help from my friends, mmm gunna try with a little help from my friends. Do you need anybody... I just need someone to love," I was finally calming down a bit.

"He ain't looking to make friends, Heidi-darlin'. Sorry, though." he said, giving a little smile. "I shoulda had a bit more faith in you, H-angel."

She smiled and rocked Mr. Floppers back and forth. Heidi had decided to help sarah out, she would come by every morning and give Sarah her medicine. That way everything would be ok, no more slip in and out of Bizzarro land. But She counted the pills, there were only enough for a month. and after that... well, Sarah feared the worse.
Sarah was getting cold, so she placed on her little sweater and hugged herself tight. "Looks like there getting close Mr. floppers." She smiled.

I smiled at his latest endearment. "Everyone needs friends. I've had many friends like him and they've remained innocent friendships, respecting my decision to just be friends. Besides," I said, making one more knot, "they're a hell of a lot of fun to flirt with." I gave a sly smile and winked, then heading for the last pole.
"I'll need another vine please, sugar."

"Flirty? You, Heidi-halo?" He stifled a look. She couldn't be a serious flirter, she looked like an angel. "You don't strike me as much of a...tease."

"Yah, I get that all the time," I said rolling my eyes. "It's the good girl look. I am a good girl, mind you, but my mind is a whole other story." I smiled to myself as I decided to disillusion him. "Now, are you going to hand me your vine," I began, looking at the vine he held at waist level, "or do I have to grab it myself?" I said with a wicked smile as I gave him a once over.

He almost had a heart attack. As he turned to her with a shocked expression, he tripped over his own foot, falling face first onto the ground. "Jesus Henry Christ, girl!" he said, standing. He hadn't expected that. "You have got a smutty mind for an angel-faced beauty, Princess Perv. That was...uh...that was, well...well. Huh."

I laughed as I walked over to help him up but he'd gotten back on his feet pretty quickly, so I smled up at him and simply said, "Thank you," as if being told I had a smutty mind was a compliment. "You okay? That looked like a pretty bad fall," I said, trying to contain laughter.

Suddenly there was rustling noise behind Heidi right in the dark of the jungle were the fire's light couldn't reach. As shadow was moving closer through the woods, stumbling. Right as it appeared in the slight, orange glow of the close bonfire, it sank to it's knees with a groaning sound. It was a woman, with blonde, long hair in slight curls. She was wearing a dirty tank top and a dark, knee length skirt. Cyrus recognized her, even the expensive shoes he was told to rip the heels off. But that was impossible.

I heard rustling coming toward us fast in the jungle and saw a dark figuring moving. I immediately thought it was that thing, that monster and I was more scared than I'd ever been in my life. I reflexively, and very quickly, stepped up to Cyrus and held on tight, burying my face in his shirt. I didn't want to see it nor was I anywhere near ready to die. This is it, I thought. Oh God I don't want to die!
But then I heard something fall to the sand and I braved a look in the direction. It was a woman. I let go, giving Cyrus an apologetic look at making an ass of myself, and ran over to the woman, kneeling down next to her. "Are you okay?"

Heidi leaping at him was unexpected, but even so, he squeezed her shoulder gently when she did. When she broke away, he tried to give a comforting smile, and then looked at what had spooked her.
His heart sank, and his fists clenched. Sarah. No, no, no. Tom had taken her, and she might recognize him, she would ruin everything. If she even remembered him hitting her, he'd struck her pretty damn hard. He quickly rushed to her, holding her up and checking her over. He could try snapping her neck. But no, Heidi was too close, and there was no explanation for it when she'd come out of the jungle.

I wasn't really paying attention, but I tend to notice when some random person dives out of the jungle. I put my guitar down and jumped to my feet. I ran over to them, but they hadn't noticed me yet. I looked around, "What the f*ck happened? Who the hell is she?" I was so confused that I was ready to just walk away and let them deal with it.

Sarah felt comforting hand on her shoulder and arm. She quickly followed them with her eyes. "Mum?" Then the arms lead her view to a friendly but young face. Heidi could see a few scratches on the woman's cheeks. Than Sarah realized another person next to her. A man, she didn't know him but he looked nice too. Not dangerous, neither of them. "Who ... who are you. Where is my brother? Is ... is the boat okay?" She was babbling and her voice was dry and raspy.
