The beach near the water where the tail section of the plane falls. The tailies make camp here. Location found in box C5 below: Each box is 3 miles by 3 miles. It takes an hour to walk 3 miles. But also keep in mind that hiking (like that really steep hill to get to higher ground) will take a heck of a lot longer and that if you're running (like from some jungle thing), that you'll get somewhere faster.

KYLE
He lay on the beach motionless, to see him would confirm the assumption that he was asleep, when literally, his eyes were wide open, staring up at the sky. His eyes were practically black from exhaustion, but not sleeping for 6 days can have some negative affects on people. Then again there were points when Kyle had gone weeks without so much as a wink. He rolled over only to see the two kids sleeping a couple dozen yards away. Kyle paused as his mind wandered.
Feeling restless he jump up, through his shirt on and walk off down the beach along the shoreline.

Cassie
She had slept well, and that was a surprise. Maybe the talk with Etana helped her a lot more than she thought it would. She helped Cassie stop from making a grave mistake, another death was the last thing anyone needed. She woke that morning feeling fresh and alive, and ready to take ‘Them’ on if they came back. Grabbing a stick and a knife that lay on the beach she smiled, maybe some fish for breakfast?
Making the spear was easy, catching fish… well a little harder. Cassie had hunted fish, one a mission or two. So it was easy to spear a few fish, everyone would have a good fish breakfast. If she could find a surface to cook on, if not. Sushi anyone?
Looking around she smiled when she saw a rock, perfect surface to heat up. She cleaned in the water, it was a long flat surface. Starting up a fire she heated the rock up, as the rock heated she gutted the fish and slice with the knife from the spear. Placing the fish on the rock she smiled and began to cook it.

KYLE
He continued to walk along the beach. He was careful not to go to far incase of...Well there was nothing needed to be said on that subject. Kyle paused part way through the walk. He looked out at the ocean. It was amazing the thought that if the island wasn't full savages that kidnap people, it would make one hell of a beach resort. Turned around and headed back towards the camp.
Just a few yards away from the camp, near the ocean, he spotted Cassie, gutting fish. He decided to head her way. Walk up slowly behind, and looking at the fish he said, "Hell of a catch."

Cassie
As she cooked the fish, she could hear foot steps. they were coming at her slowly, she made the deduction that it was either to surprise her or not startle her, "Hell of a catch." not to startle her was the answer, she turned and smiled; kyle she believed. she had a good memory, remembering names of the people around her. she might not have been introduced properly, but she heard there name in a conversation.
"Thanks, like some?" she extended a leaf with some fish on it.

KYLE
"Thanks, like some?"
Kyle smiled and then shook his head, "No thanks...Not hungry," he replied, trying to make himself seem less desperate, but his bluff could easily be detected. His smile faded as he stared at her out stretched hand with the leaf and the fish, his smiled then reappeared as he gently scooped up the fish into his hands. "Thanks."
He took a bite and knelled. He chewed on the slightly raw, unseasoned, fresh fish, with an overwhelming stench coming from every direction, that literally covered the air around him, no different from a fisherman's boat, but non the less like a landfill. But Kyle didn't pick up on any of those things. After living on a deserted island for 6 days with no food, and no supplies, your pretty much thankful for what you get.
"I actually came here to talk to you about something," he stated as he swallowed the fish. He could feel the nasty slime flowing down his throat with a taste that he assumed would taste much like motor oil. Kyle wasn't exactly a huge fan of fish.

Cassie
"Thanks." Cassie smiled and gave him a nod.
"Not a problem," she knew he was hungry, she could tell. Kyle had something on his mind as well, there was something he needed and Cassie knew it was only a matter of time before he asked.
"I actually came here to talk to you about something," and here it came...
"What would that be?" she just hoped he hadn't seen the display yesterday. with her holding the gun to her head, because that would be a hard one to explain. but she cooked the fish as much as she could and waited.

KYLE
"What would that be?"
Kyle tried to spit the words out, but all that came out of his mouth was an exceptional amount of carbon dioxide. It wasn't an easy subject to touch base on, not to mention Kyle didn't really have much experience playing the sensitive person, but he still tried. "Etana told me about yesterday, about what you did," Kyle closed his eyes and started over, "What you almost did," he said correcting himself.

Cassie
"Etana told me about yesterday, about what you did, What you almost did," Cassie didn't miss a beat of what she was doing, she continued to cook the fish without that dramatic pause everyone is famous for. why would he bring this up, most importantly why would Etana say anything?
"Almost did being the key words, i'm better now. i won't be doing anything stupid like that again." Cassie was sure she wouldn't, she had a small laps in her own judgment, but she swore that wouldn't happen again.

KYLE
"Hey, I'm not here to grill you about it," Kyle said trying to make the situation seem less harsh. "I just wanted to see how you were doing. But don't worry about it, I'm not gunna say anything," Kyle assured her. "Look, I know there's been some trouble, but the best thing will be to try to forget it," Kyle explained, and for the first time, he had really taken this leader thing seriously, "I know this is a bad place, but we;ll soon get out of it."

Cassie
"Hopefully, i have a feeling we'll all be here for a while. so don't count on rescue coming anytime soon." Cassie ate some of her fish and smiled at Kyle, "we just have to protect ourselves from 'them',"

KYLE
"we just have to protect ourselves from 'them',"
Kyle took a deep breath, "That's actually the main reason I came to talk to you," he admitted. "Now I'm not gunna ask you where you got your gun from, that's none of my business," he continued, "I'm just assuming you know how to handle one. That way, incase they come back, I want to make sure that we have at least to people armed, and ready for 'em. Cause what with Paul being here, I'm getting the feeling that their coming back sooner then expected."

PAUL
He took a gulp of the morning air and let out slowly, letting it turn over in his lungs a few times first and savouring the taste of the dew that entered in with the beach air. He'd needed the morning to come as quickly as possible. There were things that needed doing.
Paul got up from his spot in the sand and felt the muscles in his left calf seize up. "Schie-!" He cut his curse short. No point in having a fit about his lack of flexibility. It was his own fault, anyway, for having stayed up so long through the night writing his notes and findings on the prior day's events. Much had happened. Much was going to happen, if he had his way. People who should have been on The List had been left off and people who shouldn't have been on The List were placed there by mistake- Goodwin's mistake.
Paul would make plenty sure Benjamin knew full well who had been inefficient in gathering preliminary information and who corrected the mistakes. That is, if Paul ever got off this beach alive and if he ever had an opportunity to venture into the jungle to make a drop without being watched.
Just play it by ear.
Paul looked about the beach to see who would have some task for him to attend to. Best to make himself busy in the physical regard too.

GOODWIN
He walked up behind Paul, facing the opposite direction of where Paul was looking, hopefully Goodwin would take him be surprise. "What the hell do you think you doing?" Goodwin snapped, but still trying to keep his voice low. He was well aware that everyone was asleep, and those who weren't, were no where near the camp. That's the main reason why Goodwin picked this moment to confront Paul. No need to arouse suspicion between both of them.

"What the hell do you think you doing?"
He didn't bother to look back at Goodwin, he just continued to scan the camp to see who was awake and what had been left undone at the end of the previous day. "You left me. Aaron could have killed me back in that clearing. But you left me. Why?"

GOODWIN
"You left me. Aaron could have killed me back in that clearing. But you left me. Why?"
"What would you rather have happen, we both attack Aaron, either killing him or not," Goodwin's rage did not sees, but it was not evident in his tone, his tone was absolutely plane, and emotionless, "Either was it would have gotten back to the camp that we were working together, we'd be force to go back to Ben, and he'd have us deal with Jacob." Goodwin stop to take a breath before continuing. "Besides, he wouldn't have killed you, he need information from, and if he had killed you, he knows his camp would have killed him...Maybe not physically."

"Little consolation for having a gun pointed in my face." His tone was casual. "What about the big guy? He has none of the qualities, yet he was on The List. Why?"

"Look you can continue to question my decisions, that's fine," Goodwin replied angrily, "but if you continue to arouse suspicion about me, like you did with Bella yesterday, I will take you down with me," Goodwin continued, "Just remember, they don't trust you."

NEIL
He wandered around the beach, as he usually did. He wasn't much for sleeping, which was odd because he would usually sleep till late afternoon, but now that he was on some mysterious island, where nobody has come for rescue, and has inhabitants that enjoy kidnapping people, he can't seem to sleep a wink...Enough said. He stood at a tree, picking what he figured to be fruit. He didn't make it hard to figure he had no idea what he was doing.
He struggle to reach up and grab a piece of 'fruit'. He stretched his arms out, reaching as far as he could. "Bollocks," he said as he realized he couldn't reach it. He took a little hop, hoping he could get a little higher. The first hop he took, he only barely tapped his finger against the 'fruit'. The second hop, he managed to actually hit the 'fruit', knocking it out of the tree.
He was wearing a brown suit jacket, with a white dress shirt with a blue collar underneath, and a nice pair of shoes. Not exactly top of the line, survival clothing. This only exploited his lack of knowledge in the wild. He picked up the piece of 'fruit' and as he held it in his hand, he couldn't help but get the feeling there was something wrong with it. He sniffed, and as he did so, he immediately pulled away making silly face, which was actually quite foolish considering all he had to do to avoid the smell would be to drop the 'fruit' and walk away, but Neil continued to hold onto it as if it were the only thing keeping him alive.
He turned his head back and looked over the piece of 'fruit' with a look of disgust. 'It would probably do more good if I through at somebody' Neil though. He was beginning to doubt it was fruit at all. He tossed it to the floor, and before he started walking back, he locked eyes with one of the other survivors. He looked like he had been watching the whole time. 'Shut up' Neil thought.
