-------------------

Ashton and Luke wanted to explore further away from the camp, they wanted to see if they could find more food or anything that may be useful to them.

They ended up taking calums hand made wooden spear incase they needed a weapon for either defense or hunting. Calum complained about it greatly, saying how he was the only one man enough to use it to hunt. Everyone rolled their eyes at him.

about after an hour of walking through the dense fores,t that surrounded their camp area, they ended up on the beach. But they had no idea which side of the island they were on.

However, was different from the one they had arrived at. This beach had smaller dark grey rocks instead of the large slabs stone and sand. The beautiful blue water with its white foam made an awesome contrast to it.

Both boys stared in wonder for just a few moments, wishing they could really take in the beauty of the strange island but they had things to do. They had to find ways to surive.

Ashton noticed there were few things that littered the rocks. Things that seemed to have washed up from the waters. Things that could be of use.

He motioned for Luke to follow so he could investigate the items. The first thing he came across were teal fishing nets, tangled but could be of use.

Ashton kneeled as he tried to untangle the mess, wanting to save most of it as he could. As he was busy with netting, Luke was wondering further along the rocky beach.

He noticed some fishing wire laying around, thinking it may be a good idea to get, he started to gather it up. Rolling it around his hand as he did.

"Luke! Don't go to far please. I can't stop feeling like we are being watched and it's creeping me out. Just stay in sight!" Ashton shouted.

Luke glanced up and behind him, spotting Ashton way down the beach. He didn't notice that he wondered so far from him.

Smiling guiltily he turned to Head back but a flash of grey fur darting in the corner of his eye caught his attention. It moved along the beach, disappearing behind larger rocks. Whatever it was, moved too fast for luke to get a good look of it. But from what he did manage to get, it looked similar to the canine-like creature from before.

Maybe he should tell Ashton about the thing following them. But It couldn't be too dangerous, because it hadnt attacked them yet. Maybe it was just a lonely stranded canine.

Shrugging, luke started to walk back toward Ashton only to spot some off-white object against the dark rocks. Being curious, he stumbled along the rocks to see what it was.

Luke instantly regretted it the second he got to it. Laying down at his feet were bones. They looked to be old and bleached from the sun. It scared him because they were clearly human bones. They also had some marks upon them, making it looked like they were gnawed on by something.

He shook his head a little. This was just too much. Fear was started to grow in luke, making him nervous and anxious. He feared that they could end up like whoever the bones belonged to; dead.

"Luke."

He chewed on his lower lip, letting his lip ring click against his teeth. He was fighting the urge to cry.

"Luke..Luke..Luke.."

Luke pulled his gaze away from the bones to look for Ashton, since it was his voice he heard calling his name. He spotted him further up the beach with rolls of fishing nets in his hand but his back was turned to him, he looking down poking at the ground with the spear.

Luke quickly made his way to Ashton, he wanted to forget about the bones and to stay by ashtons  side. he felt much safer with ash.

"What?" Luke asked when he finally reached Ashton, Causing the shorter guy to look up at him briefly with a confused expression before he looked back at the ground.

"What, what?" Asked Ashton.

"What did you want Ashton? You called my name." Answered luke.

Ashton laughed and shook his head. "No I didn't." He glanced back up at luke, pausing from moving to speak. "we should head back and let Calum try spear fishing again. "

Luke tilted his head a little to the side, he could have sworn it was Ashton calling him. There was no one else around them and it was definitely his voice he heard.

"Yeah.. Yeah okay let's go." Luke mumbled, extremely confused.
