I was sitting down by the beach when I saw Sawyer walking towards me. "Well, well, well if it ain't the belle of the ball". Sawyer had glasses on and took them off before speaking. "So what's it like lying to everybody then getting out everyone starting to turn on you".

I looked up at him. I didn't respond. "Just call it how I see 'em, blondie, truth be told. I'm not the one wondering where you're gonna weigh in on this whole "moving off the beach" thing. Are you going with the pessimists or staying here, waiting for the rescue boats". I looked at him. "Are you going?". He smiled at me. "Well, that's the real trick, isn't it. We all pack up stakes for the caves, next day a plane passes by, they're gonna go on their merry way and be none the wiser."

"On the other hand, stay here, get eaten by boars, fall off a rock, there not gonna be anyone around to answer that 911 call". I looked at him. "You still didn't answer my question". He smiled at me. "You didn't answer me and I asked first". I looked at him. "What do you think?". He smiled. "Are you moving in with Jack yet?". I tilted my head he left.

It was a bit after and I saw Jack walking up to me and he kneeled down. "It's almost time to go". I looked at him. "I'm not coming". He looked down, hoping I would want to. "Someone else can stay here. Keep a lookout. Wait for a rescue, Why does it have to be you?"
I looked at him. "I've done horrible things, in my life and maybe just maybe helping people get off this island might help with the guilt". I stood up and walked away.

It was the next day and I had been helping out on the beach. When Charlie came running up to me. We hadn't spoken since I told him the truth. I was checking up on Micheals leg. I don't think he had forgiven me but he needed his leg bandaged. "Hey! We need help!". Micheal got up and so did I.

"Whats wrong, man?" Charlie replied to Michael. "It's Jack, he's trapped." Michael looked at me. I looked back and saw Boone walk up behind me. "What?". Charlie replied. "A cave collapsed". I started to let my imagination wander. "We don't even know if he's alive. Come, we've gotta go!". I looked at Michael. "Hey, uh, uh, Scott?". The man replied.

"I'm Steve." Michael ignored him. "We've got an emergency, come on, grab a couple of guys and let's go". I saw Charlie run off and I followed him, running. I was worried about Jack. They didn't know if he was alive. I ran up to Charlie. "Where Kate?". He looked at me. "We have to tell Kate, if I'm not back, she needs to know she'll have to take care of anyone injured".

Sawyer was behind us. "Sorry, sport, you just missed her. Her and Jarrah headed into the woods about 10 minutes". Charlie asked "Which way". I grabbed Charlie's arm and pulled him. "He can find her now let's go!". Me and Charlie told me how to get to the caves. He said he didn't to find something and left.

I got to the caves about 5 minutes later. There was a like assembly line with everyone in the caves trying to move the rocks. We still didn't know if Jack was alive and I felt myself getting emotional but I was able to hide it well. I ran up to Michael and looked at him. "What can I do?" He turned to me. "Help us remove some of the rocks". I turned to the rocks and started picking some of the rocks and moving.

I heard Hurley yell. "Hey we're through, we've got a hole". I looked up and pushed myself through. "Jack, Jack! Can you hear me, Jack?". There was no response and I got worried. I heard Hurley behind me. "Cmon dude answer us!". Michael moved a stick and I heard a groan. Hurley spoke up. "Hey! He's alive guys". I smiled, while I felt a tear fall down my cheek.

Hurley spoke up again. "Jack, bro, you ok?". I heard Jack groan again. Then he spoke up. "I'm pinned. I can't move". Jack sounded like he was in pain. "I can't move". Hurley looked at me. "What do we do? How do we get him out." I looked around. "I don't know". Jack spoke up. "Charlie, he was with me". I replied. "He's ok, he made it out". Hurley spoke up. "Hey, listen Jack. Jack responded. "Yeah?"

"We're going to get you outta there". Michael looked at me and I shook my head. Micheal walked away and I did too. He spoke up and I put my hands on my hips. "We can't make the whole any bigger safely but since Jack can't get out, one of us is going to have to go in and unpin him".

"What crawl through that?" Hurley asked Michael. Boone replied. "I think we need someone smaller". The Korean man spoke and no one understood. Micheal and Hurley were talking when Charlie walked up to me. "I'll do it". I turned back and looked at him. "No Charlie, your still to shook up.

Michael spoke up about how he should do it when Charlie interrupted. "What if something happens to you, who's going to take care of Walt?". Micheal looked down. Charlie looked at me. "You've got to be here if something happens" He started to walk closer to the hole and was explaining why he should do it. Charlie was ready to climb in. Micheal looked at him. "Yeah ok good luck". I looked at him. "Be face Charlie". Boone handed him a flashlight.

We watched him enter the whole. Michael and Hurley were arguing when Kate got here. "Where is she, where is Lyndsey?" I walked up to her. She hugged me and I was confused. "Sawyer told me you were going in there?" I looked at her. "He lied" She looked around then back at me. "Jacks trapped and Charlie just went in to help him". She looked at me.

"Is.. is he alive. I looked at her. "We think so". Kate looked around. "Why isn't anyone digging". I looked at her then walked over to move more of the rocks. I saw a hole through the rocks, so did everyone else. We started digging faster then I heard Walt. "Hey! Look it's the doctor!" I turned my head and saw Jack and Charlie, walking towards us and smiling.

I climbed down the rocks and walked over with everyone else. I walked up to Jack and hugged him, strong and with a hard grip pushing him back. "Oh! Ow! Easy" Jack laughed and I let go then hugged Charlie. "You did great Charlie, you did it". Jack looked at me and I smiled.

I was later and I had made a sling for his shoulder. "I made you something". He looked at the sling. "Aw my first sling" I laughed. I sat down next to him. "So these are the super duper safe caves you've been going on about".
He laughed. He looked at me "This was a fluke, Michael checked out the integrity of the rest of the caves and gave them an ok"

He looked at me. "I guess your heading back to the beach?" I looked down. "Kate told me about Sayids plan and if it works th" He cut me off the finishing my sentence. "Then we're one step closer to getting off this island". I smiled and he looked at me. "Thanks for the sling, Lyndsey". I looked at him. "Lynn" He smiled. "Lynn".

I didn't know if I wanted to go to the caves or stay at the beach.
