(OOC: anyone want to get attacked by the monster with me? ) Crunch. Crunch. Crunch.After being on the island for so long, the fruit around camp had started to disappear, causing the castaways to head further and further into the jungle to get anything nutricious. Nadia was one of these people. Crunch. Crunch. Crunch.She had changed into a pair of jeans and running shoes, and set off earlier that morning. She hadn't intended to go so far into the brush, but she just wanted to keep on moving. She would be back by nightfall, and probably even sooner than that. Crunch. Crunch. Crunch.Pulling a piece of foilage out of the way, Nadia came to a small lake. It was huge to put it lightly, and it looked even more so what with a waterfall over at the far end. Nadia could now hear the water pounding as it crashed into the waves below. The lake looked so appealing, she decided to take a swim. Amazing that nobody had found this place before, she thought to herself as she began to take her shoes off. Crunch. Crunch. Crunch.She stopped. Those were not her footsteps. She looked around into the forest, peering into the distance. "Hello?" she said. "Is anybody there?"

Jason appeared out of the bushes beside the waterfall. He pretended to not know that Nadia was in the pond swimming, so she wouldn't grow suspicious of him. In truth, Jason had been following her, hoping that she would lead him to a new stash of fruit and berries. He hadn't found any in days.
"Oh, hey," Jason said gently, kicking a few rocks into the water. "I was just out here, looking for some food. What are you up to?" Jason grit his teeth when he realized how stupid that question was. She was obviously taking a swim.
Jason examined Nadia's face for a moment and noticed that she looked slightly frightened. She had reason to be, given the jungle was full of creepy things and she was this far out from camp all alone.

Once her shoes were off, Nadia placed them on a nearby rock. She took off her jeans, and folded them up on top of the shoes.
She smiled when she first stepped into the water. It was cool, but not cold. Great swimming conditions. Although she had been living on the beach for the past few weeks, she hadn't really ventured into the water. Only now was she realizing this.
She waded in the water until the water was up to her waist. Then she dove into the water. Staying under for a few minutes, she opened her eyes to sea the underwater world. She could see a few small fish, but nothing noteworthy.
Going back to the surface for air, she looked out into the jungle. Adjusting her sight, she could see a man standing there. Had he been here the whole time, watching me? she thought to herself.
"Oh, hey," he said, kicking a few rocks into the water. "I was just out here, looking for some food. What are you up to?"
She smiled, swimming backward in the water. "I'm swimming, of course," she said. "I just found this place a few moments ago. Isn't it beautiful?"
By now she was glad that she had just taken her jeans off, thankfully. Otherwise Jason would have....
Her jeans! She quickly looked over to them. They were just a few metres away from where Jason was standing. She had her gun hiding in the pocket, though she doubted it was visible to him. But just in case, she decided it would be better to get it back before he noticed.

Louisa Had been flowing Jason For a while and was trying to decide whether he was a threat or not. While staying as quiet as a church mouse she quietly gripped the rope which she was going to use to tie up Jason should he start to get violent. With baited breath she silently watched the two interacted. Her nerves tensed with anticipation as she wiped the sweat from her brow. The heat didn't bother her. It was the humidity. As she did so she glared at Jared with a grim certainty. He was one of the others.
