Casey had gotten comfortable against the base of a tree, watching as the scenario unfolded before her. Montana had shown up, completely randomly, and now they had themselves a prisoner. How fucking convenient was that? Very. Watching in silence from where she sat, she scowled slightly at the mention of Aiden, once again disturbed by this girl's seeming lack of knowledge about the child. There was definitely only one tribe on the island, and if they'd taken a prisoner, wouldn't that be big enough news for everyone to know? Especially if it was a newborn infant.

The horrible feeling that they'd killed him was still nagging her. Unless the native was lying. That was possible. They probably weren't above lying to keep things secret. After all, they obviously weren't above killing people, lying wasn't far off from killing people. Her scowl deepened ever so slightly as Montana told her to get up; they had to go find Damien. She didn't know which idea she was more opposed to- getting up, or spending time in the company of both Damien AND Montana. She loved both of them to death, that was the problem.

"Niabi... Sounds like a brand of cigarettes," she commented darkly, getting to her feet with a faint but playful glare in Montana's direction.
"Damien's our pet cougar, he's who we feed stupid prisoners to"

Montana grinned at Casey's cougar comment. Damien might as well have been, the man was not one you wanted to piss off. Montana just prayed he would be up to the challenge of stepping into the lion's den. Hearing Niabi's words, he stopped her and turned her around to face him. His voice lowered to almost a whisper.

"This is the part where you need to listen very very carefully. you might not know of this newborn, but he's there. You are gonna help us get him back. And if you try to resist. I am going to kill you." Montana spoke very simply. He knew his words would ring true. And if she DID try to resist, Montana wasn't above snapping her neck like a twig.

A cougar? What in the name….what is a cougar? Did they try to scare her? Nope, look at her face; she was more confused than scared. They feed people like her to him? What was this thing? There were few carnivorous creatures that ate meat. But cougar? It was in the language, some sailors that shipwrecked here told people stories about those things. Why do you think they knew English? The sailors had to intermix with the people here. Like Niabi here, one of her ancestors was some sailor from what was it….Mexico? Well, it wasn’t like it stuck in their minds, those people had become Oryx.

What was a cigarette? Could she even spell that? Yes, she was curious by nature. Like, all these things they kept talking about, she had no idea what it was. She was going to have to ask. Not like they would get annoyed by her asking simple questions. It was the way she was. Her thoughts raced as they walked along. But then he stopped at her comment. Talk about rough, why was he rough with her? She was innocent of all things. He would kill her? Did she look like someone that would resist?

“Three things Montana Jones, what is a cougar? What are cigarettes? And if you kill me Serj and Serj-Na will kill you. They are stronger and smarter than you are. I have done nothing wrong to you Montana Jones; all that I am doing is following my queens’ orders. Can you really hate us for protecting what is ours?”

This roughing up of her was getting annoying. Why were they so mean to her? Really? Oh wait, what if she made him have to drag her along? She was going to be one of those; you have to drag me people. Though, with how much she weighed, he could probably pick her up and carry her himself. Yeah, then the pervert will be making her flash the whole island. She crosser her other arm over her chest and made a face.

“You are a really mean man. I can walk by myself you know.”

Casey padded along behind Montana, her gaze trained keenly on the native, their new prisoner. She almost wished the chick would try and make an attempt at escaping, just so Montana would kill her. Why Casey wished such a thing was beyond her, she'd never really wished death upon anyone. The people she'd killed, those had been entirely unwilling- their screams and pleas still haunted her, it was one of the reasons she hardly got any sleep. Though that was far from the only thing that haunted the blonde. Giving her head a shake before her mind could slip into dwelling on the reasonings behind her sleepless nights, she glanced at Montana.

She grinned faintly as Niabi spoke. She didn't know what a cougar was. Well that could make things interesting. She was close to launching into a whole spiel about how a cougar was a great, hairy red monster that, while holding you in one hand, broke every bone one by one with the other, before snapping pieces off and eating them, making his victim listen to the grisly crunch of their own bones as they bled from the wounds of missing limbs. Her whole spiel was put to an end though as she spoke again, calling Montana a mean man.

She laughed out loud at that.
"Montana's a mean man... Just wait til you meet Damien. He's just a bundle of fun," she said, leaving it at that. Part of her wanted to inform Niabi of just HOW cruel Damien could be, but that would bring up other matters that she didn't want brought up right now. Besides, Montana would kill Damien if he knew things.
"Walk by yourself... Of course you can, it's just a matter of where the hell you decide to walk off to, that's the problem," she snapped.

Montana laughed as she said he was a mean man. He couldn't believe her hypocrisy. He put on a faux-afraid voice and mocked her. "You are a really mean girl, you were about to kill my friend." Montana wanted her to understand where he was coming from. Maybe he was being needlessly rough, but Montana couldn't risk letting her go under any circumstances. "Besides," He said, returning to his normal voice." Casey's right, I let you go, and you sprint off to go tell...who was it? Serj and Serj-Na? Either way, you with us will EVENTUALLY make everyone happy.

Montana stopped walking, and actually loosened his grip a bit. He turned her around so they were looking face to face. He held her by her shoulders, but wasn't gripping. She could try to bolt, but all montana had to do was grip his hands and she would be caught. "Listen lady, I have nothing against you personally. But ask yourself this. If Serj and Serj-Na came here right now and saw me about to kill you...well, they'd react much like I did when you were going to kill Casey, wouldn't they?" Montana hoped that this would clear things up.

“Why? What is he going to do? You say he is fun? But the way you are saying it doesn’t mean fun.”

Now she was getting scared. This did not sound fun at all. It was almost like they were going to kill her. But…she hadn’t even been joined to anyone yet. She had yet to produce any offspring of her own yet. Her family line would die out if they killed her. Not like any of these pale skins would care anyways. They only cared about themselves and not the people that lived on this island. Where her eyes betraying her now? Probably.

Then the girl snapped at her. Why was she so angry? She had an angry soul. Why would she run? This man looked like he would be able to catch her with no problem. Why risk trying to get away and be killed? Not like any tribe members were here to help her anyways. She sighed and continued to walk. That was, until he mocked her. He had no right to be like that to her. She had a reason to kill his friend. She was evil and trying to steal from them. Then he mentioned the Serj brothers.

WHAT WAS HE TALKING ABOUT? Her being with them will make everyone happy? What was he planning on doing? Having one of his pale skin friend’s mate with her so her people would have to back off? She would rather kill herself than ever do that. It scared her to think those thoughts.

“Why? Why am I so important? What will having me make everyone happy?”

YAY! He loosened his grip on her. She felt the blood slowly running back to her arm. It felt nice to not have someone gripping you. But then he turned her around again. But his hands moved. To her shoulders? But his grip, it was loose enough to where she could run. She could get away right now. She was thinking that until he started speaking to her. He had nothing against her? Well why was he holding her prisoner?

When he mentioned the way that Serj and Serj-Na would react the same way her shoulders dropped. He was right, but they would be protecting someone that lived here. She belonged here unlike these people. But he was sort of right. She looked up at him with a new light in her eyes.

“I guess you are right Montana Jones. You should be able to fight for survival here. You have nothing to worry about Montana Jones, I will not try to escape.”

"I dunno what he'll do. He's rather unpredictable, that guy. One minute he's ready to kill you, the next he's completely different. I think there might be a bit of multiple personality, or bi-polar disorder going on there," she said, not that the native chick would have any idea at all what multiple personalities or bi-polar disorders were. She was pretty sure Damien wouldn't have a problem with her making him seem terrifying to the natives. After all, it was natural to be afraid of what you didn't know, and if they didn't know what 'pet cougars' were, he could stay at that, as human as he was.

The girl looked terrified, and Casey couldn't help but get a sick satisfaction out of watching her. She didn't even want to know what was going through her mind. At her question of why she was so important, Casey shook her head.
"It's not that you're important. We didn't pick you out, you're just easy, much like the child. Get it? Your people have one of us, now we have one of you guys. Something as simple as a prisoner trade-off would make everyone on the island happy. Until you guys decide to get power hungry again," she said, adding the last bit as an after thought.

She nearly crashed into both Montana and the girl as he stopped and turned her to face him. Catching herself just in time, she shied back a bit, restoring her bubble of space. Watching her shoulders drop, Casey almost felt bad for her. It had to suck, being a prisoner and actually knowing what was going on, as opposed to Aiden. He was blissfully unaware of anything. So long as he got his food and someone kept him clean, he'd be happy.
"I don't even see why we should have to fight for survival. We're all human, even if we're different. Why the hell can't you and your people just realize that and leave us alone? None of us want to be here, intruding on your space, taking your land. We don't have a choice in the matter," she said quietly.
