Stranded

Chapter 9

~Annalee'a p.o.v.~

I stayed with grandpa all night I couldn't sleep. I cried my self to sleep eventually. When I woke up I looked at him he looked back at me and the only thing he said was "I love you Annalee". And I cried, I sat beside him for the rest of the day. I was talking to him about when he recovers. Or if he recovers. We talked about how we would get off this island and how everyone would be alright. We were talking when Bill came in and said it was time to eat. "I'll eat in here with grandpa". I said sadly. "You can go eat with them I don't want to keep you waiting, I'll be ok Annalee". Said grandpa. "Ok but I will be checking up on you, and give me a signal every once in a while to let me know your ok". "Ok honey". He said with a sad smile. So I left to go eat with the guys.

~Bill's p.o.v.~

Annalee came out if the tent. I knew she wasn't ok by the look she had on her face. I really felt bad for her when she broke down and cried right there in front of us. I put my arm around her to let her know I was here for her. After dinner Annalee went back to her grandpa in the tent. She stayed there with him for the rest of the day. After dinner we let Annalee know that we were going out to hunt with some homemade spears we made from thick branches and John's pocket knife. We told her to scream if she needed help and we set off into the woods to hunt.

We had a nice hunt we caught a few vampire rabbits, and some strange birds that looked like a breed between a turkey and an eagle. But they looked like they would make a pretty decent meal. We were walking back and we heard a high picked blood-curdling scream. We knew for sure it was Annalee. We all started to sprint. By the time we got there we thought we were to late. We rushed in the tent, the wound had started bleeding again, he was squirming and groaning in pain. We knew how bad it was by the looks of it. And I started thinking by the time we got on this island bad things had been happening to us and they all resulted to death. By the time mom had everything she thought she could stop the bleeding and try to help him he had stopped struggling. He was laying there looking up at all of us he was looking at Annalee mostly. "I love you all". Was the last thing he managed to say and he closed his eyes and gave in to the pain. He sharply drew in his last breath and his eyes rolled into the back of his head. But I was happy to see a small smile cross his lifeless face and knew that he was in a better place now. I looked over at Annalee and knew how badly she wanted off this island
