We had gathered together, everyone who was going to tell Claire what was going to happen. Sayid told her. "You'll be surrounded at five points. Everyone will be in visual contact with you. Make sure you stay in the area I've shown you. And remember, the guns are a measure of the last resort. We want him alive" I looked at Sayid and nodded.

We started to walk away to take our places in the jungle. There was a storm and it was pouring, muddy. I was hiding in a thick bush. I was able to see Claire. I didn't have my guns drawn because I wanted to make him hurt first. I saw Sawyer look at me and I looked back at him as we were on opposite sides of the bush but could still see each other.

I heard rustling and looked where Claire was and saw Ethan. She screamed and ran away, once Ethan was past me, I slowly got out off the bushes waiting to strike. I saw Jack run to him and they fought but Ethan got the upper hand and pushed him back. I ran towards him and kneed him right in the groin, then punched him. He was on the ground and tripped me, I fell but got up and kicked him in the face.

I stomped on one of his legs, breaking it. I bent down and did the same to his arm. He screamed and everyone got close to him as he slowly got up. I pulled out my gun and backed up as Jack gave him hell. Kate grabbed Claire and Jack was still hitting Ethan. His arm was most likely dislocated and his leg broken. He couldn't move. He was stuck.

Jack got off him and he slowly very slowly recovered from Jacks punches when Sawyer spoke up. "Now maybe somebody can tell me who or what this son of a bitch is" He slowly got up but both me and Sawyer drew our guns directly at his face. "Uh-uh-uh, jungle boy, not even for one second"

It was silent for a second when we heard shots in our direction. I felt Sawyer grab me because I was closer to Ethan. I heard what seemed like 7 or 8 rounds. Sawyer had his arm on waist from grabbing me and I held onto him. We turned to see Charlie holding a gun. He fired the shots. He killed Ethan. Jack yelled. "Charlie?" He was mad. Charlie lowers the gun and I looked at Ethan. For some reason. I didn't believe it, he wasn't dead to me.

Everyone was silent for a second again. Jack was about to speak up when they heard more shots. Five at least. They turned and saw me. I had left Sawyers grasp. I had fired 5 shots into his head. Jack ran over to me and grabbed my arm. I forcefully and quickly ripped it away from him. "He's dead" I looked at him. "I didn't believe it"

I walked away and back to my tent. I lit a fire nearby and sat down beside it. I had changed out of my suit into my other clothes. I grabbed the doll from my pocket. I heard someone sit down next to me. I saw it was Sawyer. "You don't believe huh?" I looked at him with a slight smile. "Ya I didn't believe for a second either" He looked at me then the doll and grabbed it. He took out his letter he made from when he was a kid.

"Look at all this trauma" I let out a chuckle. He gave me the doll and I looked at it. I felt a tear fall from my face and a hand wipe it away. I smiled and looked at the fire. I thought about it for a moment and I threw it. He was dead and I was on a deserted island in the middle of nowhere, he couldn't get to me because I killed him. I threw the doll into the fire. I let out a smile and felt tears fall from my face. I looked at Sawyer. "Gone"

He looked down at his letter and back at me. I knew he wanted to but couldn't yet. I grabbed his hand and held it. I looked at him, I put my hand on his cheek. I rested my head on his shoulder and spoke. "You don't have to" he let out a chuckle and squeezed the hand he was already holding. He looked at me and I nodded. 

He sighed and I saw a tear fall from his eye. He looked at me and I wiped away the tear. "It's ok James" He turned back to the fire and I gently took my hand off his cheek. It was harder for him then me. He sighed again and then let out another tear fall. I watched the item harnessed my traumas and demons for decades burnt.

It was huge weight off my shoulders and made me more relieved. I looked at Sawyer with tears in my eyes and smiled while gently touching his cheeks. He pulled me closer and smiled at me. We were inches apart and I looked at him. He leaned in and so did I. We kissed but pulled apart. I had my hand on his cheek and I leaned in again. We kissed again and again and again.

A kiss wasn't the word to describe it. It was more like kisses or that we made out. We pulled apart and I rested my forehead against his. I smiled and so did he. I pulled my face away from his and I stood up and walked away but he gently took my hand. "Thanks Blondie" I smiled. "Anytime"

I walked away, happy, relieved and not thinking at all about Jack.
