WILLO
He glanced up to see Grace just as her head turned away. He wondered if she knew how often he thought of her, and decided it was better she not know--they had just met. 'For a writer,' he told himself, 'you sure are bad at expressing your feelings.' He set his pen down and watched her for a moment, a delighted grin on his face. The island had cured her. After everything he had seen and heard, he had witnessed a miricle.
And damn, did she look good, sunburn and all.
He sat down his notebook and leaned against the tree, which caused a vibration which led to a large amount of fruit from the tree falling onto him, covering him in a sticky substance.
"I...DAMMIT!" he shouted.
MASON
Mason weaved his way through people, glancing around for one of the seven. They had returned, and he had urgent buisness to attend to. Gwen. He spotted her and made his way over with skill and speed. He looked at her for a minute, and had to immediatelyh change plans.
"Gwen," he said, walking up to her. "Can I talk to you for a minute?"

WILLO
The always out of place Willo found a place under a tree and began to write. He started slow, as he always did. He scrateched out a few words in pen and then, suddenly, without any warning, began to write nonstop.
It happened again. I have doomed us all. I am writing to you now as far away from the world as one can get while being on the world. It has been six days since I caused us to land here, and there seems to be no hope of rescue. Some people are still holding out hope, but I fear all is lost.
Fate has once again caused me pain, and this time killed over 200 people, I fear. The 40-or-so that remain are already forming a social ladder, of which I buried below the ground. The only person I can talk to is someone who is deaf. Or was.
I get the feeling that some of us, myself included, will not want to leave this place before my story is completed. Some so that they can remain safe. I am more concerned with the safety of the rest of the world.

Willo emerged from his shelter the same way he did all five mornings so far--wishing he had got more sleep. He yawned and stretched as he greeted the sun with a cold gaze. He had never been a morning person, and nearly dieing hadn't changed that at all. He rubbed the inside of his eyelids as he sighed and put on a shirt. He silently cursed and took a swig of water from a water bottle. Something in his gut told him today was not going to be a good day.

MASON
He let out a slight grunt as he watched her go by.
"I'm just saying, the best treasure is always cursed," he said, with a proud grin. "Don't... you know... die. Or anything."

ERIK
Mason let out a smirk. He wasn't quite sure what he expected to hear from Ana, but the truth certainly was not it. And she had decided to let him no she had no intent of telling her plan.
"Well, don't try to hard," he said. "Buried treasure is buried for a reason."

MASON
"We had a deal," Mason said with a smirk. "I don't break my ends of the deal. That's why people trust me with millions of dollars. It's not because of my winning personality, as I'm quickly discovering with people who don't have deal with me if they want to have a future."
He smirked a bit and leaned against a tree.
"So, why the hell do you want to dig?"

"Everyone has to start somewhere," he said, with a smirk. "I started in the scene shop. Yes, I made it."

ERIK
"Hardly," he said, as he quickly walked over to a rock and took a few steps back. He brushed away some sand and dug a little bit, pulling out a stick with something attached to it. He held it out in front of her: it was a makeshift shovel. He had used one of the branches that had retrieved the other day and a piece of debris from the plane he had picked out, and shaped the wood to fit in.
"I didn't get people to trust me with millions of dollars by not keeping my end of the deal," he said with a smirk. "It's all yours. There's a note on it."
On the handle it read: Ana. Please do not hit me over the head with this. - Mason.

As Walter disappeared, Erik Mason, who had switched directions, appeared over the horizon directly in front of Ana. He blinked blankly for a couple seconds, before unwisely opening his mouth.
"I--let me talk before you de-ball me," he said. "I've got something for you."

WALTER
"Ana-Lucia," he said, in his best grizzled voice. "No one is alone. Not you, not me, not him."
He paused and looked around the camp, letting out a slight sigh.
"I think we forget that all too much. So, just, be good."

"At my age, I've seen pretty much everything there is to see," he said, giving her a bit of a look. "Good, and evil."

WALTER
The old man looked at her with a half frown. He didn't enjoy being the elder any more than he liked being a father.
"Before you do whatever it is your gonna do," he said. "You should talk to someone. Just make sure you've got a friend in this place. There is not a worse feeling than being surrounded by people and feeling alone."

WALTER
"Ana," Walter said flatly, looking over the camp from the distance. He was merely trying to get her attention so she could talk about her views on the events, but, while she freely spoke her mind, it seemed that when she was scared, she clammed up. He couldn't blame her. Most people didn't talk about fear. But he had a feeling she had already had a plan of action, and he wanted to know what it was.

WALTER
The old man emerged last from the woods, silently following as he glanced from person to person. He would have to wait until later to get some things in motion, but he glanced at Ana Lucia and wondered if he had made the right decision letting her know what he knew. He shook his head. There was nothing to do now but wait. He leaned softly against his walking stick and looked at the people in the group. He glanced from face to face. He was looking for something, but he just wasn't sure yet.

"There are days I wish life came with a mute button," Walter mused to himself.

"That's the scariest thing of all, Ana," Walter said, lowering himself to the ground to look closer at the footprints. "I have no idea. You said he was ex-military? Well, maybe they want to keep secret--that would explain why they have not made contact with us yet--perhaps he found them."
He looked down at the ground and stood up slowly, his back cracking in the process. He let out a brief moan before making it all the way up.
"Or, perhaps most frighteningly, there was no reason at all."

WALTER
"The traps were designed to capture humans, Ana," Walter said with a frown. "I'm sure of it. What that means is that there are at least two people on this island--who do not like each other."
He looked down on the ground and glanced at the dirt. He picked up a button from the ground. "And, from the looks of it, one of them has the fellow you were hanging around with."

"...as if he had seen something," he said, turning to her. "And then they just stop, as if he was carried off by nothing."
He looked to the left and the right, making sure they were alone. "Ana, we've got a serious issue here. We're not the only people on this island."

WALTER "We're here," he said, and pointed to the ground. "I walked by here earlier but didn't tell the others. How good are you at reading footprints?"

The old man tossed an old ciggerette lighter to Gwen underhanded and winked. "Be careful, I didn't bring any extra fluid."
