She smiled back at him, and laid her head against his shoulder," I'm glad you see my point of view. Most men would probably be insulted, but thank you anyway for humouring me anyway." She closed her eyes for a few minutes trying to think of a plan, "Phineas, can you recall how many men chased us? Because by calculations, there were about 4 and that would mean their would be two left by the craft. I think the odds of beating two guards is better then one. Even when I'm in this condition." She grit her teeth anger apparent in her voice, "You could pilot that hovercraft quite well right? Do you think you could fly the craft they flew in on?" She leaned up to look at him, expectantly.

She listened quietly, a smile appearing on her lips, "A writer huh...Surprisingly I can see that. You sitting in a little nook and typing away. God I guess we are just a couple of right fools. Lets make a deal Phiny." She paused turning to look at him,"If we survive this. I will buy you a very expensive typewriter and then we should just get married. I mean I'm old enough now to be a spinster and there is really no one who is a proper subject for a husband. I mean we could be happy..I think..I would even let you be unfaithful as long as you never bring her home. I'm flexible...and rambling. God...I shouldn't have mentioned anything this is ridiculous...we barely even know each other." She turned to sit back down her expression both red and flurried.

Phineas' face was still red, but he regained his dignity and spoke up. "I still have the pistol, but other than that I only have some of the emergency supplies from Joseph's airship." He fumbled through his various pockets and found a few matches, a flare, and a bottle of iodine tablets. He cursed himself silently. "I must have left the rest at camp. Hopefully we can find the means to start a fire, we'll need some way to keep warm tonight." Even as he spoke, the chill was beginning to set in.

She shivered, "I suppose that's better then nothing." She moved slightly trying to hike her body up the wall. "We can't risk a fire. They were to close behind us and we are at to high of a point for them to not notice it. What we do have is cave moss, and guano." She reached up to grab a root in order to hoist herself up. I am going to look a bit deeper in the cave for..for..." She turned staring at him with wide eyes,"I like dresses Phineas. I like expensive shoes, travelling, and explosives, My life up until now has for the most part been exciting, full of adventure and pure excitement. But now, noting that our situation is quite dire and we might die soon, I have to say I'm a rather lonely person. I fill my walls with foreign objects and play around with foolish boys but at the end of each mission, when I'm home alone the brave and happy woman I strive to emulate seems to feel rather silly. I know that this is not the time to be expressing such things, but I think that it would be a shame to not tell anyone." She clenched her fists settng her jaw and nodded, "Yes..that needed to be said."

She looked up at Phineas' turned back and tried to hide a laugh,"Oh Phiny, for blimey's sake we are in the middle of the jungle and I am wearing a shift underneath so you can't ruin my dignity. Let propriety die for christ's sake. Besides better get a good look at a woman's body now, might be the last ones you get to see if they find this cave." She smirked trying to ease the tension whilst making the mood lighter. She then gasped at a sharp pain coming from her waist,"Oh Jesus." She clenched her fists and closed her eyes while she waited for the pain to subside before speaking again, "We need to make a plan. Do we have any supplies or weapons?"

It pained Phineas to watch Eliza run in her condition, but his mind told him it was necessary. He picked up the pace and soon they were running rapidly through the jungle. The trees thickened and the path blurred as they got deeper in, but the knowledge of what lay behind them pushed aside all hesitations. The island itself was several miles wide, but only a little over one mile across. Before long, they had ascended the rocky incline that marked the middle. As they neared the top, Phineas's eye caught sight of a gap in one of the rock formations, partially obscured by vines. "Is that the cave?" he asked Eliza, gasping for breath.

She stopped, a feet before him and tried catching her breath. She clenched her eyes shut as she tried to breath out the pain that seemed to shoot through her ribs, "Yes. I noted it earlier when..I went hunting." She gasped her face turning towards the forest when a male's scream echoed through the air. After a few minutes she flinched, when a gunshot echoed through the air. She closed her eyes, and let go of her throbbing chest, to face back towards the cave determined,"We have to keep moving." She clenched her fists and forced her feet to move forward. After about an hour, she fell face first in the cave, completely exhausted. She rolled over and eyed her corset angrily. She looked over at Phineas and decided female propriety at this point was ridiculous. She began to pull at the strings, whilst trying not to groan or flinch. When she found enough room, she yanked it off, and looked down at the slightly bruised skin. Bollox. She pulled herself to the edge of the cave and leaned against the damp mossy wall,"I think we will be safe for awhile."

She gasped at the mention of Joseph's death, her expression growing hard as she sensed his panic. She nodded solemnly and as he stopped and lowered her to the ground she gripped his arm firmly to hold her weak knees up for a few moments. When she found some balance, she groaned and let go of him. She bit her lip, as she sucked up the pain from her waist. She then turned to him, "I'm fine now, there is a cave a few miles northwest from here, that might give us a place to..ugh..make a plan." She breathed out slowly placing her hand around her corset. She didn't wait for a confirmation knowing she was either going to have to rest or move before the pain really got to her. She grit her teeth then began to run.

Eliza groaned as the rush of air and greenery flew past her. She felt leaves and twigs hitting her legs and arms, and a dull pain in her waist. She groaned scrunching her body up slightly when she whimpered at the intense pain in her stomach. Ouch! Lets not to that again. Wait where am I? Her eyes popped open and she looked up at Phineas with wide eyes, then immediately felt herself being carried. She bawked, "Uh Phiny, what are you doing?" She then looked about, "Why are you running? What's wrong?" She began to panic, and sat up slightly to grip his shoulders in order to hold up her weight,"Where's Joseph?" She suddenly jolted when a gunshot went off in the distance, and pain seared up her abs,"OUCH! PHINEAS WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?"

Joseph laughed at Phineas grimly, "Why would they be here to kill us? OR perhaps what you mean to say is they mean to kill you both."
He eyed Eliza then Phineas sharply before speaking again, "Look you do whatever you want. I'm getting off this rock."
He ran forward, screaming, "I'M HERE MAN! SAVE ME! HELLOOOO!" The man screamed as the craft came back and landed near the sand. The men that began to exit were in military garb the large golden insignia stamped onto the back of the outfits. They spoke a harsh Lybanese and pointed their weapons at Joseph who stopped immediately and fell down to his knees, "I'm unarmed. I'm unarmed." he wailed, panic edging in his voice. They moved forward quickly and a two of the soldiers gripped Josephs arms and pulled him forward so he was lying on the ground. He moaned at the pain then spoke again in the only language he knew, "What are you doing? Let me go! I'm just a civilian." The men spoke harshly to each other shaking their heads and then one of them aimed the gun at Joseph who spoke in a ruggid english, "Are you alone on this island?" Joseph blinked his muscles twitching underneath their boots, "No. It's just me." They spoke softly behind the black mask, "Good." Suddenly a loud gunshot went through the air and Eliza stirred moaning in the sand.

Eliza groaned as she picked him up and shook her head weakly when he waded to the water. She shut her eyes when he lowered her and then whimpered at the stink of the water on her wounds. She dug her fingers into his shoulders, pain swirling her features. She curved her head to the side, her body becoming heavier, as she could hear a soft murmur in the distance. She moved back slowly to look at Phineas, who was eyeing something in the distance. She felt heavier, as larger waves lopped around her. She kept her eyes on Phineas, until blackness took over and she fell unconcious again. Thankful for some rest.

She drank slowly, numb pain beginning to settle through her as she watched Phineas and Joseph. When she finished she leaned back, and tried to grip the sand beneath her fingers. She was still in shock and the pain on her waist was becoming more apparent by the minute. She grit her teeth, as a tear fell down the side of her cheek. She shut her eyes as the sun glared down at her, and she waited patiently for her body to regain sense. She was mute and lame, and neither posed to well on her pride. She dug in her heels anger propelling her forward as she arched her back. She screamed immediately regretting it as pain soared through her nerve endings. Tears flowed freely now as she looked at Phineas stubbornly.
