Hunted 2 *Not accepting*

TARRION

I stumbled through the trees with the box, Saph had taken to dragging the deer by the legs rather than carrying it. I stopped dead when I saw the tree we had tied Kyle to. The empty tree. "Shit!" I shouted, dropping the box. "Where the heck are Matt and Logan!?"

They stepped out of the tent followed by Wren and Gemma. They all stopped cold when they saw the empty tree. Where was Domi? My pulse quickened. No! No! No! He didn't! I dropped the kit on the ground and fell to my knees beside it, burying my head in my hands. I looked up and around for Annie. She had disapeared, too.

They were all suddenly beside me, talking at once. It was driving me nuts. "Would you all please be quiet?" I hissed through clenched teeth. "Please, I can't hear everybody at once!"

Gemma sat down beside me. "We'll find them. We can split up, some of us can go look for Annie and some of us can go look for Kyle and Domi."

I nodded, praying I wouldn't start tearing up. "W-we should open the b-box. There might be something we c-can use in it," I stuttered, prying the lid off.

I peered inside, trying to make sense of things. A small digital video camera sat on top and immediately grabbed my attention. I picked it up and flipped open the tiny screen and pressed the play button. A lady popped up and started talking, it made me shudder to be honest.

"You've made it this far, and I'm surprised. This kit should keep you going and ammused for a while. Think of it as a reward for making it this far. There will be more...eventually. Don't think things have started getting easy only to stay that way. We've got the beasts and the wolves with us, and they're coming back. You still haven't figured this out though, have you? Well, that's a good thing. Good bye my dears and good luck."

The screen faded to black and I threw the camera to the side, not the slightest bit interested in the lady's warnings. I pulled out two coils of rope, three metal padlocks, two packages of nails, a hammer, a hatchet. Everything in here was sort of useful, but I only wanted what would get me Domi back. I kept ripping stuff out, mind reeling. Three big packages of matches, a few butcher knives...I grinned at that. Three swiss army knives, a dozen or so chocolate bars, a box of canned sodas.

I glanced up at the others for a second, they were all staring back, expressionless. "There's a lot of stuff in here," I muttered absently. They all just nodded, so I turned back to the box, which was growing empty.

A large variety of painkillers and anti biotix and some throat candies. Gauze, real bandages, antiseptic ointment, vasaline. If Annie was still here... I teared up and quickly swiped at my face. Oh look...spices... Paper and pens, a couple small mosquitoe nets. At the very bottom there were four sheets folded to perfection.

"That's all she wrote folks. Can we go find Domi now?" I asked, tearing up again.

>Forsakin, PM me.<
>By the way, LDR, don't take away Wren's headache this time, it has to do with a plot.... yeah.<

Wren

Domi... we had to find her, we just couldn't leave her alone with that jerk-wad. And Annie too- my gosh, she was like my best friend here!

"Let's go," I said abruptly, standing up but stumbling a bit. The headache was back, not that I was going to tell anyone that. It wasn't important right now, I had to find Annie and Domi. At least Gemma was alright...

Matt

Logan and I ran back into the camp. We had been trying to chase after Kyle but he was gone... his trail was, at least. Logan seemed like he wanted to hit himself on the head for our stupidity. I did too.

We walked up to the group hurriedly. Tarrion glared towards me, but I quickly said, "Listen, you can get angry at me all you want afterwards,"

"Cause we deserve it," Logan put in. "But listen, we found the beginnings of a trail, and... you might want to know about that?"

Saphire
I glared at Logan and Matt and spat out one word "Speak." They both started blubbering at once and I clapped my hands over both their mouth's. "Matt first then Logan got it?" I snapped impatiently they nodded and I took my hands away. "And speak quickly or Tarrion will be the least of your worries." I said coolly.

Matt

"Alright," I said. I knew it had been partly our fault but we had a good reason... I was pretty sure it would count as that to everyone else. "So I thought I heard something. So I left Logan watching Kyle and I went off to see what it was, alright? I found a camp, a camp with high-tech equipment and such. I ran back to get Logan but when we returned there... everything was gone, they must have spotted me. We came back but Kyle had escaped..." I finished.

Tarrion looked skeptical. "And you think we'll believe that? That convieniently you got Logan to late?"

"Its true," Logan put in. "I don't know if he saw anything.... but he did come get me, and he did say it was urgent."

Saphire
I rubbed the back of my neck and sighed. "Let's go." I said arubtly. "What?" Logan and Matt said at the same time. "We are going to save Domi and I really want to kick Kyle's ass so let's find the trail." I said coolly.

Wren

"Stay back at camp, Wren, we'll be right back," Tarrion said. He was grabbing a knife from the kit.

"Stay here? No way!" my head was pounding more than ever, but I thought I had been able to hide it....

"Listen, we have enough people." Tar motioned towards Saph, Matt, and Logan. I sent a pleading look towards them to back up my case, but Matt, Logan, and Saphire all just looked at me a bit sympathetically. Saph and Matt turned back, but Logan shook his head no at me and shrugged regretfully. I sighed.

"Tar, I want to come help! Domi and Annie are two of my best friends!" I insisted. We were all family now, I couldn't abandon them.

TARRION

I shook my head. "We need somebody to stay here anyways. Just incase one of them comes back. We can't have an empty camp. Stay with Gemma."

She pouted. "That doesn't sound very helpful to me."

I rolled my eyes and sighed, exhasperated. "Well it is helpful. Stay put. If you're head hurts that bad, you shouldn't come anyways. I don't need to lose another sister."

I stashed away a few knives and thought to grab a bottle of pain killers and some bandages. I glanced over at Matt, Logan and Saphire. "Saph, Logan, I want you two to go find Annie. Matt will come with me to find Domi."

Saphire crossed her arms. "I want to go after Kyle."

"Fine. Saph you come with me. Matt and Logan go after Annie. Kapeesh?" I just wanted to fine Domi before Kyle could do anything more to hurt her.

Wren

I watched Logan and Matt as Matt nodded quickly and said, "Can and will do."

Gemma and I were left in camp... I sighed and quickly ran up to the two boys. "Be... careful, alright?" I said to both of them, but my eyes directed towards Logan. He nodded and I quickly turned away and walked back over to stand beside Gemma. She was watching Matt nervously.

"They'll all be fine," I said aloud, to assure her just as much as myself. "They'll all be fine."

KYLE

I finally got her to the far side of the island, her blubbering like an idiot the entire way. My leg was killing me. I snickered, that guy must be torn apart right now! I had Dominique... right were i want her. She knows if she tries to go back I'll break the freaks neck. The rules on this island were MY rules, and my rules are survival and making me happy so i don't hurt you. I sat down and pulled her onto my lap, she was squirming again. This was getting ridiculous.
"Will you calm down? You didn't do this to the freak!" she flinched when i yelled. Same old domi.
"I didn't wiggle away from him because i love him." That was making my blood boil. I swatted her over the back of the head. She had a small gash there. She whimpered, putting her hand on the back of her head.

DOMINIQUE

Your doing this for your family, for tarrion and Annie and saph and gemma and wren and even mat and logan. I told myself. They were the closet thing I've ever had to a family. I wasn't going to let them get hurt because of kyle's greed and stupidity. My head was pounding, i hoped they weren't looking for me.

TARRION

I grabbed Saphire's arm and threw Matt a bottle of pain killers and some of the bandages. "You'll probably need those. Be careful with her and don't let her talk you out of taking her back."

They nodded and I turned, pulling Saphire behind me. "If he's hurt her..." I hissed.

"We'll find her Tar. We'll find her and then we'll take care of Kyle and party like there's no tomorrow."

I sighed and offered her a weak smile. "I'm no tracker. You know a few things, right?"

Saphire grinned. "Of course I do."


SAMANTHA

I stared at the moniter, begging somebody to appear on it. Somebody who wasn't Damon anyways. I nearly shrieked in joy when Kyle and Dominique showed up on the screen. They were there! The first teenagers since...well... the whole project first started to find this place!

I could hear them, but they weren't talking loud enough to make out exactly what they were saying. Kyle was angry obviously, threatening Dominique with this or that. She said something about love. How sweet. She obviously didn't love this fool. Kyle smacked her over the head and my grin broadened. So Kyle was a prick. My favourite kind of person to work with because they were often the easiest to break.

"Well well well Kyle. Looks like I have my new first target. We'll come for you soon enough. Enjoy carefree life while you can," I muttered, still grinning like the mad woman I was.

>Wow, I take a nap and you all post! And I'll PM you in a minute.<

Damon

I watched as it all happened. The girl Annie just laid there in the tall grass. I got a few pictures of her. She looked dead. I wasn't supposed to do this, but there weren't cameras around, so Samantha would never know. I climbed down, and went over to her, touching her arm slightly. She groaned, and opened her eyes. I cursed under my breath, and ran back into the trees.

From what I heard, she was the one to be afraid of. She had killed before, and from the episode eirlier, she had beat the hell out of Kyle, who deserved it dearly. She didn't get up, she didn't move, she didn't speek. She just sat there for a moment before closing her eyes again. I stood up and looked at her.

"Dangerouse my ass," I muttered.

Wren

I sighed. I hated waiting in camp.

~Annie May~

I laid there for a while with out moving. I didn't want to move, it hurt too much. So I kept my eyes closed. I wondered who that man was, then I didn't worry about it. I wasn't up to thinking. It hurt too much, so I thought about nothing and ended up thinking about my family. Not my new one, my old one. My sister was always on my mind. I missed her so much and would give anything to have her with me. I sighed audibly, and opened my eyes. The man was still there, doing something. He had a camera in his hand, and he was turned. A gun was in a holster at his hip.

I got up, not entirely worried about that. He wasn't my problem. I continued walking the way I was before. I heard him fallowing, but I never turned to look at him until I made it to the edge of the Forest. I looked at him skeptically. He was maybe ten feet away from me. I shook my head and turned back around. I peered through the bushes. I saw them then. Kyle had Domi on his lap, and she was holding the back of her head.

"I swear if he hurt her I'm going to kill him," I muttered to myself. I wondered if the guy was still behind me. I turned back around, but no one was there. I looked at the tree next to me. Sturdy. I climbed in in quickly, looking at them. He turned his head, as if hearing me.

DOMI

I heard something moving in the trees. Kyle was babbling on, i should listen, or he might hit me.
"Domi are you even listening to me?" He said, waving his hand in front of my head. I blinked.
"Y-yes I'm listening, i swear!" He gave me a look. Pushing me onto the ground in front of him, i quickly sat up.
"Then what did i say i was going to do?" He smiled at me, i bit my lip looking away. "See! You weren't listening!"

KYLE

I grabbed her chin and turned her face towards mine. I would teach her all over again. Tarrion messed up her obedience. I had her perfectly trained.
"I said i was going to do this." I leaned in and kissed her lips. I didn't pull away, despite her whimpers and fidgeting. This was fun. Just like she had always been, she should be used to it by now. I grabbed her hair with my other hand and pulled her away. She hissed in pain and grabbed my wrist trying to get me to let go.
"Please stop Kyle!" I stood up, letting her hair go. She fell to the ground. I stepped down on her shoulder, with my bad leg. It hurt me, but i knew it hurt her more.
"Say you love me." She sobbed but couldn't find the words. I heard something move in the trees. I looked up but couldn't see anyone.

SAMANTHA

I squealed in delight. Kyle really knew how to torture a soul, I would give him that. I almost felt sorry for poor Dominique...but only almost. He was forcing her into something...it was something I would do to prove my authority amoug those I work for. You've got to keep them in line to get what you want after all.

There was motion behind the camera, I could hear the leaves rustling. Now what was that? Another of the teenagers? No...that would be too good to be true. Of course, I could hope, couldn't I?

I turned towards the papers that were sitting neatly on the armrest beside me and debated leafing through them. I disposed of the idea, this was much more entertaining. I would have to bring Kyle here and perhaps get Tarrion's brother on the island in the next batch of teens.
