BOONE
He began walking along the path that Walter had suggested. He looked back at the other group, or 'team' as they were referred to as earlier. They were nearly completely gone. Boone looked to the floor and then looked up, talking to no one in particular, "Is it just me, or are those three the ones who decided to form this whole search in the first place?" Boone asked, not realizing that what he stated might be unclear on what his point was.

WALTER
"You would be correct," Walter said, with a smirk. "They don't think we're going to be useful, kiddo, so they sent us off on another direction so that we wouldn't hold them back." He glanced at Ruby. "Or get in a fight or anything. They view us three as dead weight. 'Thought Gwen knew better, personally, but can't really blame them. At least, on my behalf. The cover on this book's a bit worn, so to speak."
He stopped for a second and glanced around quickly down three paths through the woods. He pointed down one. "This'a'ways."

*Nikki and Paulo enter GS-Jungle Outskirts of Fuselage*
Paulo grunted as he trudged through the messy undergrowth of the Jungle, his shoes being daubed with a coating of thick brown mud as he took each step. Nikki was several paces ahead of him, eyes scanning the jungle floor for any trace of their posessions.
'We're taking a break' He said blankly, sitting down on a nearby log and retreiving a bottle of water from his backpack.
'What?' Nikki said flatly, spinning around to face her boyfriend.
'You heard me. We're taking a break.' He replied,unscrewing the Oceanic bottle and taking a sip of what scarce water they had.
Nikki opened her mouth to argue but was halted by the sudden dryness in her throught. She reluctantly sat down as Paulo handed her the bottle.
As they sat in the eerie silence of the jungle, a sudden noise caught their attention.
"They don't think we're going to be useful, kiddo...This'a'ways."
'What was that?'Nikki whisphered in anxiously.
'I'll go check it out. Stay with the bag' Paulo replied, getting to his feet and walking quietly towards a clump of overgrown bushes and shrubbery.
Peering through a gap in the thick leaves, Paulo saw a young woman he recognized as Ana-Lucia walking away into the distance with another woman.
Paulo watched as the women became a blot on the horizon on one of the jungle paths before returning to Nikki.
'It was the search party...looking for that guy. We must have caught up with them'
'Well we dont want them asking questions.Did you see which way they went?'
'Yeah, to the left I think'
'Then we're going to the right. Saddle up Paulo breaktime's over' Nikki said with a smile before kissing her boyfriend and walking off in the opposite way to the search party,unknowingly following the trail of Boone,Ruby and Walter

"It sucks," Boone replied, now feeling a bit down, "Never being taken seriously." Although Boone couldn't speak for the other two, but most of his life he was considered unworthy, or helpless. It would seem that's what a spoiled child, who's mother was never around could do to a person. Of course he continuously tried to make himself seem useful, that's the reason why he became a life guard, how many years ago, but still people looked down on him, as if he were just another person to get in the way.
"The cover on this book's a bit worn, so to speak."
Boone looked up at Walter, aware that he wasn't looking back. He had a look of pity and sorrow. It seemed everyone had their own problems. Some much more worse then his, it didn't make sense for him to complain, but he did anyway.
"This'a'ways."
Boone took a good look at all three paths. He himself, was undecided, he didn't was to go off in the wrong direction and loosing a lot of time for no reason. Perhaps Boone had a lack of trust, but he questioned Walter's decision, "How can you be sure?"

There was only so much whining and ininuating comments Ruby could take, she was already annoyed about the whole Gwen thing and being stuck in a team that doubted theirselves didn't really make things better.
"Oh come on guys!" Ruby said "This isn't the attitude, yes Ana-Lucia and the flying monkeys may of ditched us, thinking we're incapable but we're not...And what better way to prove it by picking our pace up and finding Jake?" she suggested.
"I mean, if you think about it the other three are just arragon...so and so's, with head full of hot air, they just like to think they are going to find Jake. But if you look at us, we have someone whose eager and caring.." She smiled looking at Boone, before turning to Walter "And a very skilled, multi talented gentleman..."
she stood out infront of the other two "And well...me someone with medical training and knowledge, and I know I may not be no Florence Nightengale when it comes to bedside manners, and that I may appaered to of had a total peronality transplant, but that's just rhe way I am. And I'm sorry that you had to listen to me shouting at Gwen. " she paused
"So how about we get searching then and show them what we're all about"

WALTER
"It sucks," Boone replied, now feeling a bit down, "Never being taken seriously."
"Being taken seriously ain't the best thing in the world, either kiddo, trust me," he said, with a smirk.
"How can you be sure?"
"I can't," he said, flatly. "But I don't want to go down either of those two paths, and, if you got any faith in me, you'll do the same."
He then turned to Ruby. "And I didn't mean to be down on myself. If I cared what people thought of me, I wouldn't have wrote my only son out of my will. As for searching, what is it you think we're doing right now?"

Ruby laughed to herself at Walters comments whilst also feeling intregued about his past "Writing his son out of his wil eh? Maybe there's more to Walter than meets the eye" she thought
As for searching, what is it you think we're doing right now?"
"Point taken Walter" She smiled cheerfully

BOONE
Boone looked at Ruby, she seemed to be able to take the act of resentment pretty well, much better then himself. It seemed that most people were a lot less self absorbed then himself...that is, except for Shannon. 'Maybe that's why I'm with her a lot, to make myself look better' he though sarcastically. Ruby never the less had a point, at least if they did their search, they'd be able to earn some respect with the others. Boone nodded to Ruby and then turned to Walter, "Alright, you sure we go this way?" Boone asked pointing to Walter's preferred path.

"As I said, it's the only way you'd want to go," he said and continued walking down the trail.

Within minuites,Nikki was once again storming through the jungle, Paulo following less eagerly behind her.
Suddenly,Paulo toppled to the ground with a loud crunch, sending the birds nearby screeching as they fluttered away. 'Paulo?What happened?' Nikki said from in front. 'I...I tripped on a root or... something' he uttered, hoisting himself up from the mud-laced floor.
It was only then that he noticed the party of Boone,Ruby and Walter gazing at them from several metres in front...

WALTER
"Having fun?" he said, leaning against his walking stick and staring at Nikki and Paulo. "Walking through this jungle is probably not the wisest thing. Following people, probably even less wise."
Walter walked over to them and looked at his ankle. "Your ankle okay?"

"Your ankle okay?"
'I..I think so...thanks' Paulo uttered in reply, despite the surge of pain coursing through his foot.
'We were'nt... following you by the way...we..were trying to catch you up...your looking for that Jake guy right? Search party?' Nikki cut in, her well-perfected lies covering up their agenda as she gestured to Ruby and Boone.

BOONE
He stared at the two who claim they were following them and Boone had no reason to think other wise. "Have you guys been following us since we left the camp?" Boone asked. It seemed if Boone couldn't pick up that he was being followed, then he wouldn't be much help for a search party.

"Have you guys been following us since we left the camp?"
'No not that far, we were meant to set off with you guys but Paulo here forgot our water so it took a while for us to catch up' Nikki said with a smile towards the boy who was adressing them.
'Have you guys made any progress then?' She added,swiftly changing the subject.

"No," he said, with a smirk. "Ain't no one been by here, far as I can tell. Hopefully the others are having better luck."

'You mean Ana-Lucia and the other woman?'Paulo inquired, rubbing his ankle as he peered around him.

THE SOUND OF TREES BREAKING FOLLOWED BY THE FAMILIAR GRINDING GROWLING CAN BE HEARD IN THE DIRECTION OF THE MID-JUNGLE BOAR TERRITORY.

Paulo instantly gripped Nikki's shoulders and pulled away from the direction of the monsterous roar emitting from the dense jungle.
'Wha...what IS that? She squealed, burying herself in Paulo's arms as he scanned the jungle ahead.

Ruby jumped at the noise that seemed to echo throughout the island
"Everybody just stay calm!" she said looking directly at Nikki and Paulo, Nikki who she had only seen before acting very strange. With Paulo , of course, following.
Ruby waitef or the loud noises to stop, she was shaking heavily. These noises seemed to trigger back sinister moments of Ruby's past
"I...I...I don't think that could of been boar, that Locke and the others were hunting...But it seemed to come from that direction!" she quivered
