"How did he get injured?"
She clasped her hands together nervously and met his questioning gaze. "I just said a moment ago that I wasn't going to lie to you, didn't I?" she remarked. "So when I tell you that his leg was punctured by a spring-loaded arrow as part of a trap set off by a trip wire...even then you're unlikely to believe me."

"So when I tell you that his leg was punctured by a spring-loaded arrow as part of a trap set off by a trip wire...even then you're unlikely to believe me."
He studied her face for a moment. More surprising things had happened on the island. And it made sense that people had been here before them. "I believe you." he said with complete sincerity.

KATE
She'd kept herself busy all day and trying not to worry about Jack. Where had he gone to? She found herself looking for him all day but to no avail. Locke had gone after him into the jungle and now Kate saw Locke by the fire with Gwen, still no Jack in sight. By now she was really worried and past the point of trying not to make her concern obvious.
"John? Sorry to interrupt," she said to Gwen forcing a small smile before looking back to Locke with concern. "Did you find Jack?"

"Did you find Jack?"
"Hi, Kate. And yeah, I found him. He's fine." he assured her. "He said he'll be back soon, he's just having some time to himself. Don't worry, he's staying well within the outskirts, he's not venturing out any deeper."

"Everything he's had to deal with over the past few days, I'm not surprised he needed a break," she said, hoping John's words would settle Kate's apparent fears.

KATE
Kate settled down in the sand in the empty spot next to Locke. She drew up her knees and hugged them to her. "I'm glad he's taking a break. He's been looking worn down lately and any time I try to tell him to get some sleep, relax... he just brushes it off and rushes away to go help someone else. The jungle's not a good place to be wandering around though." She paused and watched the flames. "But it's probably the only place where people won't be able to approach him with some new problem every five minutes."

He looked at Gwen, and then at Kate before looking at the slowly burning fire. His throat was getting dry. "Well, once he gets back, he'll hopefully have some time to sleep."

She nodded in agreement, then looked across at Kate. "So...any news on the water supply?" she asked.

KATE
"He's just going to have to make time." Even if I have to make him, she mentally added. "He can't go on like this. It'll kill him."
"We thought we had a lead. We checked it out. I... Turns out it was a bad lead." More like she'd made an ass of herself and let Sawyer get the better of her again but she was not about to admit that. "Tomorrow morning, bright and early, I'll head out into the jungle. See if I can find a water source." And Jack, if he didn't return before then.

CHARLIE
***Charlie and Boone enter from Jack's Shelter***
He had yanked Boone out of the infirmary tent and shoved him to the sand outside. "Here's your thief!" he declared to anyone within earshot, loudly and angrily.

BOONE
Clinched his fists and shut his eyes as his face hit the sand hard. Boone had pretty much done the worse, so he figured it would probably just be best to lie in the sand quietly until spoken too.
MICHAEL
He pushed himself up from the sand and limped over to Charlie and Boone. His leg still hurt, but not as much, and that was definitely the last thing on his mind. "Where'd he hide it?" Michael as with the same tone of rage that Charlie seemed to have.

CHARLIE
"Where'd he hide it?"
"I don't know," he curtly responded to Michael's question. Anyway, the hiding place wasn't the issue. "This wanker had three bottles on him," he announced to the gathering group.
"Why'd you do it, pretty boy? Eh?" he demanded.

BOONE
"Why'd you do it, pretty boy? Eh?"
Boone quickly jumped up. He tired not to face Charlie, like avoiding an agitated dogs eyes, but every where he turned there seemed to be someone else. "It was just sitting...It was just sitting in the tent." Boone explained hoping the others would follow. "And Jack just took off!"

CHARLIE
"Claire could've died!" he yelled, not at all willing to listen to Boone's stammering.

As I neared, I slowed my steps and stayed at the back of the group where I could peak between the people in front of me and just make out the voices. It was understandable that tension would be high after a plane crash, but geez, the amounts of fights, yelling, panicking... it was probably more drama than any reality show could hope for.

Gwen heard the raised voices and saw the flow of people to an unknown point of interest somewhere nearby. "Sounds like we have a situation," she remarked to Locke and Kate. "Again." She got to her feet, brushing the sand off, and walking toward the commotion.

BOONE
"Claire could've died!"
"I tried to give her some sooner, but it just got out of hand. No one would have understood," Boone continued speaking in his defense hoping that they would understand.

Lee-o
As I walked along the camp grounds, little shelters in a row. I realized there was trouble, and as I never liked to miss something as good as a fight, I headed over into there direction. I mean on my old street Powell, there was a car accident every couple of weeks. It was because those stupid lights, they were always confusing.
"Where'd he hide it?"
What the heck, hide? Than I remembered the water had done missing, this man on the ground… stole it. Someone should hit him… I stayed at a good distance and waited for the shit to hit the fan as they say.

BEN
***Ben enters from his camp***
I stood just outside the crowd that was starting to form. I was hoping that this fight meant that they found the person who stole the water. I just watched as Boone tried to defend himself before he was ripped apart by the mob. If it were up to me I'd let him go, but keep him away from the water, but it seemed Charlie and the others had a different plan for him.

KATE
Kate was also quick to get up. Now what? she sighed as she worked her way toward the front of the group. Without Jack here, it was chaos and someone had to try and fill in for him. How would Jack handle this?
"What is going on?" she asked in an authoritative tone.
