Compeyson continued to listen helplessly to the two leaders talk about a coming war. Resisting the urge to quote from Dr Stangelove, he said, "Hold on, Generals. We do have children. And women. And weaker men." He paused. "I vote to stay here and protect the beach, you can pick your 'select few' from other people."

BROOKS
"Well," he said. "Obviously it'd be completely dependent on who wanted to go," he said, glancing around. "I, of course, am willing. And it sounds to me as if Kyle is, as well. I wouldn't think more than five people would be needed, maybe even four would do."
He glanced at Kyle, and back at Compeyson. "I understand why some of us don't like this. But it's been almost a week. No one has come. Staying on the beach--in the open-- if they make it through the perimeter, there would be no way of stopping them."

"I, of course, am willing. And it sounds to me as if Kyle is, as well. I wouldn't think more than five people would be needed, maybe even four would do."
He nodded to say that he was in. He turned to Fox, "You in too?"
GOODWIN
At first he had no problem with just letting them debate whether or not the would move off they beach. But now they were thinking defense, and good defense meant that his people would get hurt as well. Especially considering the fact that at least two of them had weapons. "This is insane. How are you going to protect those of us on the beach if your out in the jungle." He was hoping that Ryan and Tom would use the sub to sneak in and raid the camp, but he could be dependent on it.

CASSIE: Agent Fox has Returned
"You in too?" Fox looked up and it didn't take more than a second for her to answer.
"Of course I'm in," she gave no expression but a twinkle in her eye, she wanted this war. Maybe it would help her in the grieving process.. maybe it would help her forget.

"How are you going to protect those of us on the beach if your out in the jungle."
"That's part of why we're going into the jungle in the first place," Brooks said, flatly, glancing at Fox and Kyle, nodding. "I--there was a YMCA where I used to coach middle schoolers in basketball. It's the same thing here. The best way to play defense is to have an offense. Force them to think on two levels."

"I--there was a YMCA where I used to coach middle schoolers in basketball. It's the same thing here. The best way to play defense is to have an offense. Force them to think on two levels."
"But we don't even know who these people are," Goodwin continued trying to get them to reconsider, "Not to mention how are we suppose to know whether or not you guys are still out there. How do we know if you're...dead." That was definitely a stretch. 'They' weren't planning on killing anyone...Not yet anyway.

"We'll just have to be real careful now, won't we?" Fox stood, "I don't know about you, but i am not ready to be picked off. Plus the jungle is like a second home to me."

PAUL
Ah, well. It had been worth the effort. Besides, there were divisions already forming amongst The Survivors. The schism started on this day could be expanded with the appropriate stimulus, resulting in a few interesting rational choice models that could be applied for the benefit of those in the outside world.
"Have fun." Paul snorted, shrugging dismissively at the group of people electing to go wandering in the jungle. He stalked off down the beach as if intensely displeased with events.

Emilie
Emilie was certainly liking the sleeping in late...far later than usual. She stood up, gently brushing the sand from her brown hair. Nearby, there was a group of people talking. She went over to them.
"Hey, what's going on?" Emilie asked, a slight bit of a sleepy tone in her voice.

KYLE
He sat with silently in the sand, with his shoes off an his feet in the water. He just sat and watched the horizon. Of course there wasn't much to see since the sun had sat and it was rapidly becoming dark, but still he didn't move a muscle. He just rested his arms on his knees and stared out.

BROOKS
He walked up behind Kyle, not sitting down, but just standing behind him, looking out to the sea for a minute.
"Tomorrow," he said. "Tomorrow morning, bright and early. Try and get some sleep."

"Try and get some sleep."
He looked up at Brooks since he didn't match the voice to the face right away, Kyle figured it would be easier to just look at the face. He smiled as he turned back to the ocean, which left his back to Brooks, he let out a chuckle, but it was a very grim, and unsettling chuckle. "I wouldn't count on it," he replied.

BROOKS
"I used to never get to sleep either," Brooks said, finally taking a seat next to Kyle. "After they---after my wife was killed... I didn't sleep for months. Almost a year without more than three of four hours of sleep. It was hell. Then one night, I slept for 6 hours. The next night 7. The next 10. And I've been getting eight to ten until we crashed here. And, if I had something soft to sleep on, I'd be okay here. The body eventually adapts... to live with the pain---no matter what pain it is."
"But I get the feeling you've not slept well for a long time," he said. He let out a half smile, and looked at the man. "When we're out in the jungle tomorrow..."
He shifted his eyes, looking around carefully.
"Can we trust her?"

"Can we trust her?"
"Who Cassie?" Kyle asked now turning back to Brooks. He motioned to stand up, but he didn't quite finish it. Instead he continued to sit in the sand and look around the beach.

KYLE
"My gut's telling me yes.... but my gut is also very hungry..."
Kyle smiled and let out a small chuckle that grew into a hysterical laugh. It only lasted about 3 seconds, but it was the first time he had laughed, without faking it, in years. "I wouldn't worry about her. Despite the fact that she has a weapon, she should be okay." Kyle wasn't just saying it, he believed it.

(ooc- why can’t you trust lil’ole me? What I ever do to you? teehee)
Fox
They were going into the jungle, they had to protect the others who couldn’t protect themselves. So Cassie was making a few weapons, using a hard rock and a shard of metal that floated ashore. Sharpening and banging the metal in a neatly crafted point. When the point and shaft were complete, she fastened it to a medium thick branch, using a sturdy vine. This was to be her alternative weapon, Guns weren’t always the reliable sort.
Guns that have been wet or damaged in the crash, can not always be reliable in a fight. Cassie had always been combat ready, that was her job. To be ready for everything and anything, to take something out, to kill. No emotion or remorse for the mark assigned to her.
Touching her finger tip to the make shift blade, she nodded and placed it down on her side. Three weapons done so far, good for anyone who wanted to live. Walking over to the guys sitting down, the ones that have been glancing at her. she gave them no smile, or emotion as she approached. “Weapons, for the others. They’ll need something to protect themselves while were in there.”

“Weapons, for the others. They’ll need something to protect themselves while were in there.”
He nodded slowly. "Agreed. But who do we know who can handle one?" he asked. "I agree that they need some kind of protection wil we're gone, just in case, but it won't do them any good if they end up shooting each other."

Emilie looked over at the small group of people. She went over to them.
"Hey, you guys be careful out there," Emilie smiled her brightest at them. "There's no telling what's out there."
