-Stranded- A Semi-Elite RP -

Ben hiked up the stairs, with each step a new sliver of the glistening sky was revealed. Finally he had to tilt his head as far as he could to view that full sky.
The diamonds in the sky seemed to wink at him. Ben bent over and picked up a Mango from the ground and put it in his oter arm. The it hit him
We might be here till the rest of our lives... I might never get to see my family nor see any of my other loved ones, accept Lilliana. He thought and blinked back a tear. He cursed himself for crying and continued to search for more fruit. By the time he finished and was staring to hike down the metal stairs to the hatch his arms were full of fruit. Three mango's, four of the turnip looking fruit, and two papaya. They were soaked with tears along with his face. He wiped them off his face with the coller of his sweatshirt hoping Lilliana wouldn't notice.

He walked down the concrete corridor and into the room that they were using as a shelter. He made a quiet sorrow sigh then set the fruit in the sink. He walked over to the fire and sat in front of it, he laid down on his side and watched the flickering flames.

Ben grinned and rolled over looking at her. "You know you have a beautiful voice."
He said and rolled back over to look at the flames. They danced across the wooden logs. Ben got up and crawled up into the top bunk, and gently fell asleep. He dreamet about all of the things that had happened through out the day. Starting with the crash, then him helping the kid get the metal scraps off of his leg, Him and Lilliana finding the delectable fruit, then them climbing down the ladder, crossing the river, him admitting he liked her, last them finding the bunker. The weird thing sbout all of this was... his parents had been with him.

Ben woke up from the recap of the day, tears streaming down his eyes. He whiped away the tears with his sleeve then crawled down the ladder. He stumbled around till he found his shoes and jacket. He put them on then checked Lilliana's bed, she wasn't there. Ben's face went into a worried look then he ran down the concrete hallway, whispering her name. Once he got to the top of the stairs, the name was beggining to be a worried yell. "Lilliana?!" He called as he passed through the forest. He looked up in the tree's remembering that she liked to go up in them. He found a figure in one of the tree's he was going to look in before he started thinking crazy thoughts. Ben sighed then smiled as he saw Lilliana sleeping silently. She seemed to be sleeping lightly because she had a tense look throughout her body.

"Um." He hesitated, "I had a dream that recapped the day, and my parents were with me everywhere we went. That's when I realized that.... I missed them." Ben said sitting down on a rock and resting his hand on his hands. "I don't know if we're ever going to get home. Either we're all going to die or we'll live until we get old and wither away." He said an blinked back a quick tear so Lilliana wouldn't notice. He stared up at the sky. The stars blinking, I saw a satellite fly across the sky. "If only they could see us now..."

Ben smiled and replied "I would too. Even if it would cost my life." He said his face hot with blood. He pulled a leaf off of one of the near by plants. He folded it a certain way then blew into it. It made a beautiful whistling noise. He played it to the tune of a song he had heard when he was a kid but didn't remember what it had been called. He stopped and smiled. "We better get back to the hatch." He said and put the leaf on the ground. He shivered and pulled the sweatshirt tighter around his body.

Gwen sighed, and sat down. She missed her parents terriably. " Do you think we're gonna get out of here?" Gwen asked.

"I'm not tired..." Ben said and set his backpack on the ground next to the roots. He shimeed up the treeand nestled next to Lilliana to watch the stars. "When the sun comes up... I'm going to go looking for Them. They could have ways of possibly getting off of this island." Ben stated taking a fruit from above his head and splitting it open. A mango. "Want some?" He said handing over the other half. He took a small bite out of the delectible fruit. Ben unclipped his water battle from the belt loops on his jean's. He took a sip of it, and accidentaly adjusted and the water bottle spilled half off the water onto his chest and face. Ben sputtered and whiped the water out of his eye's.

Ben smiled and whiped off a drop of water that had remained. "Come on." He said and climbed over to the trunk and started to climbe down. When he got to the bottom, he accidentaly stepped wrongly on a sharp stone, CRACK! His ankle was searing with pain. He yelled out in pain and started to breath slowly. He pursed his lips and staggered so he was standing up, he immeadiately had to fall back down because of the pain. "I think I broke my ankle!" Ben called up to Lilliana.

Ben winced at the pain and it felt a bit better when Lilliana had tied the splint to his leg. "I think I'll be fine." He said and tried to stand up, it felt a bit better. "I might have a seriouse limp for a couple of day's..." He said taking a few steps forward. "Thanks." He smiled and leaned against a tree.

(*Serious.)

Lilliana smiled, "It's nothing. I am just glad you didn't get hurt any worse." She glided over to him and stated, "You need to leave pressure off that ankle, I'll help you walk. Just lean on me." She smiled and held out her arm for Ben to take.

((Yeah, I know. My computer keyboard is kind of malfunctioning xP))

Ben took the arm and used his ther arm to rub his face. "Why is it that I've never broken a body part and now, when we're on an abandoned island I have to break something?" He laughed and slung his backpack over his shoulder.

(That's fine, Mine does the same thing, dumb Vistas, xDD.)

Lilliana laughed and then took his backpack, "You do not need to carry that, especially only on one shoulder. I can see us both falling in two seconds from the uneven wieght." She smiled and put the backpack on her shoulders right. Lilliana hooked her arm around Ben's waist and took one of his arms putting it around her neck, "I should be able to support most of your wieght."

Ben blushed, the rising sun glowing on his face. They walked through the forest in search of 'Them' when a gun shot was head and immeadiately Ben's shoulder was searing and bleeding blood rapidly. "I got shot..." He gasped under the pain. Immeadiately an old guy with a long grey beard came out of the shadows with what looked like a small native american army.

"Right you are." The old man sneered. "Get these two love bugs and throw them into the pit." He stated looking at one of his men next to him. "My name is Lois Garvel" He smiled and evil grin as two of his men tied Ben and Lilliana's hands behind their backs. And one hauled Ben over his shoulder the other did the same with Lilliana.

(Haha NICE!)

Ben thrashed kicking and biting but nothing happened except him drawing little droplets of blood. Are these things like genetically manipulated?! He thought right before he felt something hard hit his head. He blacked out.

Ben woke up, sweat dripping off of him. He looked around his surroundings it looked like they were in a 10 foot pit with a 90 degree angle. Lilliana was laying in the opposite corner of him, out cold. He limped over to her, his arm screaming out in pain. He ignored it, even though it was one of the hardest things to do.


((Shovel, Lilliana got hit too BTW. ))

(Thought so. xP)

(Oops! I had no idea about the shovel. xD)

Lilliana thrashed and kicked more until her head started to sear in pain and she felt like a drum. She blacked out cold.
~~~
Lilliana woke up in a pit in the corner. Her head was pounding and she winced from the migrane coming on. She groaned and rolled over to see Ben limping over, "Are you okay?" She croaked and then cleared her throat, her normal voice returning, "You need to sit down, you're going to hurt yourself worse. Plus your shoulder, Gosh Ben." She tried to get up, but her legs collasped underneith her. She fell back down on the ground and held her right knee. It was bleeding through her jeans and she could swear that she could feel the bone. She bit her lip and ignored the pain. "Ben, seriously sit down." She commanded wincing.

Ben pursed his lips and sat down against the wall net to Lilliana. He ripped off a peice of cloth from his sweatshirt and gave it to her. "I think when I was asleep they might have taken the bullet out of my shoulder. He said looking at his shoulder which was splattered with dry blood. He heard a flap open and saw two trays of food scoot in. He walked over to them and sniffed it checking for a drug to make them sleep ir something. Nothing. He handed one to Lilliana.
