We all are back at the beach.

Its night and Bernard is trying to start a fire. 

Miles comes back with a dead bore.

"Where did you get that?" I ask

"I found it" 

"What do you mean, you found it?" Sawyer asks

"It died in the jungle. I found it. Don't worry, it's fine. It's only been dead for three hours. Who's gotta knife?"

This guy named Neil says "A knife? You need a knife? It's by the Cuisinart next to the stove"

Miles says "What's your problem?"

"My problem is, we don't have a knife. We don't have anything and it wouldn't matter if we did 'cause the dentist can't start a fire"

"Ease up there, Frogurt," Sawyer says

"It's Neil, you inbred! And I'm not gonna ease up, 'cause I'm tired,  hungry and screwed! We're all screwed!"

Juliet stops Sawyer from punching him in the face if you ask me he deserves it.

"Calm down, Neil. We're gonna get through this" Juliet says

"How are any of us gonna get through this?!  Did you hear what I just said?! We can't even get a fire!"

Just as Neil says that out of nowhere an arrow on fire hits his chest.

"Run!"

There are flaming arrows everywhere and everyone is running into the jungle.

I'm with Sawyer and Juliet and I have no clue where anybody else is or if they're even alive.

We hear two other people so we hide behind some bushes.

They find us and grab us from behind.

"What are you doing  on our island?"  The guy pointing a gun at us asks

They make us sit on our knees "I'm gonna make this simple for you. Tell me what you're doing, how many of you there are and how you got here"

"Let them go" Sawyer says

"Unless you're answering questions, don't speak"

They threaten to cut off Juliet's hand, but out of nowhere rocks get thrown at their head.

I grab the rifle he dropped when the rock hit his head, and point it at him.

Sawyer is beating up the other guy, and the other gets a knife thrown to his chest.

And John Locke walks out of the jungle.

"James, Hayley, Juliet, nice to see you"

*

We have them on their knees with their hands on their head.

"Who are these people?" Lockes asks 

Sawyer says "I didn't have time to ask that with Frogurt on fire and all"

"They attacked us on the beach," Juliet says

"This is a 30 Caliber M-1 Garand rifle. Looks new..." Lockes says

"Who cares about the rifle? Where the hell have you been?" Sawyer says

"If you've been going through what I have, James, maybe the more appropriate question would be "When the hell have I been?"

"What happened to your leg?" I ask

"I got shot"

"By who?" Sawyer asks

Juliet says "We can swap stories later. We told the rest of our people we'd meet at the creek if there's any chance of reconnecting, we'd better get moving"

"Fine. Seeing as we have no rope to make sure these two don't try to kill us again, guess we're gonna have to shoot them" Sawyer says 

One of them starts speaking a language that I don't recognize  

Juliet speaks it back.

"What language is that?' Sayer asks

"They're speaking Latin. That one asked why we aren't in uniform, this one told him to shut up" Juliet says 

"How do they know how to speak Latin?" I ask Juliet

"The same reason I do.  Because they're Others"

*

We make our way to the creek watching the Others very carefully.

The blonde one agrees to take us to their camp and the other snaps the blonde guy's neck.

He runs away.

"Shoot him!" Sawyer says to Locke

Sawyer says "Are you crazy? What were you thinking? Why didn't you shoot him?"

I say "Because he's gonna take us to his camp"

*

We stand looking other the Others camp.

We see Faraday being walked into the jungle with a gun pointed at him. Sawyer, Juliet, and I go to save him.

She has her gun pointed at Faraday. 

I come out from behind the bush and say "Drop the gun"

She looks at me then back at Faraday.

"Its okay, she's okay. You can put your gun down" Faraday says

"She puts her down first" I say

Juliet and Sawyer come from behind the bush

Juliet says "Why don't we all put our guns down"

"I said drop it!" 

She drops her gun and Juliet picks it up.

"Are they from the future, too?" She asks Faraday

"You told her?" Sawyer says 

There's another flash and the girl, the atomic bomb that Faraday was trying to stop from blowing up, and the others camp is gone.

Out of nowhere Charlotte's nose starts bleeding and she faints.
