Lost

Chapter 13. Boone Carlyle

I'm sitting under a tree doing what I always do, read, when Kate comes running out of the forest.

"Hayley, Hayley has anyone see her?"

I run over there "Kate, whats wrong?"

"Jack needs you back at the caves"

"What? What happened?"

"Its Boone"

I make my way to the caves as fast as I can.

I see Boone laying there all beaten up.

"What the hell happened?" I ask Jack

"Locke brought him in says he fell of a clif"

"Where is Locke now?"

"I'm not sure"

"Jack, this doesn't look like he fell of a clif it looks more like something fell on him"

*

Its been a while and still no sign of Shannon.

"Jack hes losing a lot of blood, we are going to have to give him some blood"

We give Boone some of Jacks blood but is still doesn't help. Then it almost sounds like hes choking on air. Jack very carefully puts a tube where his lungs are so air can leave his lungs.

"His lung collapsed"

"No, no, Jack we have no materials to give him surgery, how are we supposed to save him"

"I don't know Hayley"

*

We both sit there slient when that slience is interrupted by Boone trying to speak

"Tell Shannon" He tries to say but hes so weak its hard to hear him. Both Jack and I move closer to hear him better.

"Tell Shannon...tell"

Then he stops.

Hes dead. Boones dead.

I feel the salty tears streaming down my face, I run back to the beach because I can't stand to look at his body anymore.

I make it to the beach and I bump into Sawyer, he sees my red, puffy eyes and can already tell I was crying.

"Hayley whats wrong?"

I try to speak but my sobs keep interrupting me.

"Boone...hes...hes gone...and I couldn't save him"

At this point I've broken down.

Sawyer pulls me into a tight hug while I cry into his shoulder. He rubs my hair while whispering into my ear "Shhhh... everything will be alright, everything will be alright."
