Sarah looked surprised through the little gap in the bushes. "Well Indiana ... seems like the blind chicken and corn theory works for you!" smiled Sarah jokingly.

"Yeah, I'm slumming it."

Sarah stepped on the wet sand herself. "You do what?" she asked giggling. His and her vocabulary were probably not entirely the same.

"Slumming it, y'know....down and dirty, doing things first-hand sorta. Not being afraid to get your hands dirty doing something." he explained.

"So it does come from the word slum ..." she added. "... right what I thought. You're like Beyoncé Knowles ... making up words! You'd better have her hipswing too." Sarah stepped a few steps further on the beach to look around. The rainshower made all so hazy that you couldn't see a thing, not even the ocean.

"Beyonce?"
He'd never heard of her. Seven years on an island, after all.

Sarah turned around and looked at him unbelievingly. "Baby boy ... damned ... that's all I know about her so far. She was in Destiny's Child!" She saw that it doesn't ring a bell. "From what planet are you?"

"Canada. I was raised on Bruce Springsteen."

"That actually explains a lot!" she nodded extreme wisely. He probably didn't find that very funny. "Were you also raised on fire making skills by the way?"

Sarah nodded slightly ... well she didn't mean him to ignite a fire right now but he was right too. "So what can we do right now?" It didn't sound anywhere near a sexual offer

"We keep out of the rain." he said, looking around for anything that would make a good shelter. Not seeing anything, he turned back to Sarah, "Follow me. We can wait it out in the trees."
He walked a little further in, and pulled at a branch, trying to entwine it with another, creating a simple, temporary roof just big enough for both of them to sit under.

"Have you ever heard of survivor ... the TV show? Well you would have been a catch on that show!" She respectfully nodded at his achitectural abbilities. "You know my father is an architect, he actually planned the Hilton in Chicago ... but he had never built any thing with his own hands."

"Politics ..." She hoped that he wouldn't frown. "... I am the chief of staff of the republican senator candidate of california!" That statement sounded very official.

"Sounds important." he said. "Not one for Politics myself. Goverment never did anything for me."

"Well you said that you never voted so you actually never tried to change anything." She shook her shoudlers a little. She had met a lot of people who said things like that to her.

"I'm gonna go get some firewood, for when the rain stops." he said. "I'll be right back."
Cyrus turned, and headed further into the jungle.

That was a little to sudden for Sarah. She just nodded slightly and moved into the little hut. At least it didn't rain underneath that shelter. She hopped that Cyrus would be back soon.

Wet wood. Wet frikkin' wood. At least some of the branches were dry, underneath the trees.
Why was he doing this? Why not go to the rest of the survivors? Hell, it would be easy to just take her back now. He sighed, and ripped small pieces of from the branches. It wouldn't exactly be a roaring father.
