« Thread Started on Jun 3, 2009, 9:12pm » | |
Montana was sitting against a wall on the mountain, not too far up. Things were steadily getting worse for the leader. He had almost kicked his withdrawals, but he hadn t seen anyone from the Athan in a long time. He was worried, about Casey, Heather, especially Nicole. She didnt belong here. She was too nice, she would end up getting killed if she didnt toughen up. Montana shook the thoughts from his head. He couldn't let that happen, not to her. Not to anyone.
The natives however, felt differently. That one man was shooting to kill, it was a miracle he was still alive. He didnt want to think it was skill, cause when one got cocky, one fell down. Still, these natives werent gone, they were probably just waiting to strike. And when they finally did, he had no idea how things were going to go.
"M-m-montana..." He head his name being spoke, at once he perked up. That was Casey, something was wrong.

Holy shit had she ever been to hell and back the past week or so. She hadn't seen anyone from the gang lately, whether that was because she had been avoiding them or because they were difficult to find she wasn't sure. When she'd finally gotten around to wanting to see them, it had been difficult to find them. Vague memories of all the things that Damien had said swirled in his mind, things about how she didn't matter, about how she'd be better off leaving them and joining him. Things that she had never thought of before, and hadn't wanted to think of, but he'd managed to plant a seed of doubt in her mind.
It was a horrible thing, doubt, morphed everything into a much bigger matter than it really was. Venturing up the mountain, part of her had already begun to worry. What if Damien had already gotten to Montana? What if Montana's head was on a pike somewhere? The thought sent a chill down her spine. Spying a familiar figure, she spoke his name uncertainly, stuttering ever so slightly. As he perked up, she moved towards him. He had no idea how grateful she was that he'd recognized her by voice. Damien was full of shit. He had to be.
"Hey," she mumbled, parking herself beside him. Now that she'd found him, she didn't want to leave him. She needed something real to cling to, Montana was about as real as things got.
"I got some news for you, regarding a potential rival gang," she said, ignoring the fact that she was clearly no longer carrying a child. Hell, maybe he wouldn't notice. She doubted it though.

Montana stood up when he heard her voice, and almost glomped her with a hug. He was just relieved to see someone friendly. But his feeling of elation quickly turned to one of dread as she mentioned another "potential" gang, whatever that was supposed to mean. He rolled his eyes as she started talking. Not a roll of disbelief, moreso a roll of "Aw fuck, already?" Montana wasnt ready. He needed his group back together, before they all got picked away like little mosquitos at a family picnic. The mosquitos only did any harm if they swarmed you and all sucked your blood at once. He needed the Athan together for the same basic reason.
Something else was amiss. And this, incredibly, made him feel worse than the news of a pending rival gang. "She had the kid...where is it?" Montana thought frantically. He was actually looking forward to finally meeting that little bastard. He had the feeling that the answer to his next question was going to cast a shadow on the days and nights to come.
"Caseface...what happened?"

Casey felt kind of strange, being torn between two loyalties was a strange feeling, something that would probably become difficult to deal with as things got further on. She had to warn Montana of what was coming, so he could keep himself safe, and Nicole- her name had finally come to her. She was at high risk too because Montana cared so damned much about her. Getting comfortable with the silence between them, she glanced over at him as he spoke. He'd certainly noticed the lack of child, either in stomach or in arms. Whether his question was directed towards that or the gang, she wasn't sure. She had a suspicion it was towards the baby, but decided to play dumb for now.
"I got attacked in the forest by this guy. He knew I was part of the gang, and he's pissed off cause you've got power. He's planning to kill you, get his own gang together to overthrow Athan. He mentioned something about sticking your head on a pike, and picking us off one by one... And Nicole! Keep an eye on her. He's figured out that you two are close, and that he can get to you through her. He... Mentioned doing some not-so-pleasant things to her too," she said, completely leaving out what had happened to her in the forest, and what had ended up happening afterwards. The afterwards part was especially important to leave out.

Montana's mind was swimming, and he was having trouble focusing on one thing at a time. Baby, gang, baby, gang, gang attacked casey, no baby...but something was suspicious. Casey was attacked, cause they knew she was part of a gang? That made no sense, even to Montana's messed up mind. And he knew about Nicole? Montana was worried, and the baby was temporarily pressed from his mind. Something still wasn't sitting right with him. Casey was hiding something from him.
"Hold on a fucking second Casey, gimme a second to sort this shit out..." Montana didn't know what to think. Should he go to find Nicole? She could already be dead. If the new gang guy didn't find her, the natives could have. And on the flip side of that coin, this gang person could have already been picked off by a native. These people weren't fucking around, they were all in danger without fighting each other. Montana looked over at Casey, he didn't know what to think. He asked her flat out. "How did this mysterious attacker know about us?"

Casey was silent after she finished speaking, giving him all the time he needed to sort it out in his mind. But really, it wasn't that difficult- there was a gang forming, they wanted to kill him and the rest of the Athan to take over the island. Him and his girlfriend were at highest risk. That was all. And of course the lack of baby, but that wasn't a problem at the moment... Well it was, but not as much of a problem as the possibility of everyone being killed. Or was it? Whatever. He hadn't brought it up, until he did it would remain an undiscussed issue.
Casey couldn't help but detect a note of suspicion in his voice as he asked her how her attacker knew about the gang. This wasn't good, nothing had even happened yet and he was already suspicious of her.
"Yeah hi, Montana, you're on an island. People notice things. It's not hard to notice when the same group of people sticks together, and it's not hard to see you and Nicole are closer than the rest of us, and word travels fast when people don't have televisions to watch," she informed him, sounding slightly offended but not outright coming out and telling him his suspicions were douchebaggish.

Montana shook his head. He wasn't right to be suspicious of Casey. He just had so much going on at once that he didn't know what to think. He had to go and find Nicole. Heather too, they weren't safe. First the tribe problems, now some other person wants to form a gang. This isn't what they needed right now. They needed to work together. Montana doubted this new guy knew about the tribe. If he was alive, chances are they didn't know about them. It was pure luck that they escaped before. Caseys shoulder looked to be healing up alright.
His attention turned to the stomach. A lack of baby in the stomach, evidentally. Montana looked and feared the worse. He would not be at all surprised if the baby did not suirvive. It was an island. No hospital, no doctors. Someone else obviously helped her deliver the baby, which means someone knows there is a very very vulnerable member of the Athan out there. Montana took a deep breath before asking the question he just plain didn't want answered.
"Where's baby?"

Casey sighed softly as he finally asked it, losing her whole offended-by-your-suspiciousness act. To be honest, she didn't even care if he was suspicious of her, technically he did have a reason to be, he just didn't know it. Glancing over at him, she looked away again, peering over the ledge out onto the land that lay below them.
"Baby is... I dunno where he is," she said, shrugging her shoulders, still gazing out over the forest. She'd been pretending not to care for awhile, but it was starting to get to her.
"I was on the beach, and this native guy was like... Stalking me or something. We ended up fighting, sorta, and then I went into labour. He was there when I gave birth and... And then he said he'd kill him if we didn't get off the island, and he took him," she stated, surprising herself by the complete lack of emotions in her voice. Although she was well aware of the fact that if Montana decided to hug her, she'd break down. Being hugged when there was something wrong killed her every time.

Montana was furious. He would kill them. Every last one of them, until he got the kid back, but he needed to know more. As much as it killed him to do it, the kid was pushed to the back of his mind until further notice. There was too much going on for his mind right now. Natives, gangs, kidnapping. Tribes. Native gangs. Rival tribes. Gangnapping. Tribes of little kids. Little kids kidnapping gangs of tribes. It was all too much for him to process.
Right now, he needed information on this newest threat. Someone was being a real dumbass and trying to take power from people he knew nothing about. First mistake. He looked at Casey, this was probably the last thing she wanted to talk about, but it had to be said. He needed to know. "Casey, tell me about this new guy."

Casey was relieved when no more questions about the kid were asked, also strangely relieved by the fact that he didn't say anything else at all about him, not even an apology. Though she'd never understood why people apologized in the first place when bad things happened, it wasn't their fault. She was glad though. He knew what happened, that was the end of the discussion, now onto other matters. This would be a lot easier if she hadn't ended up falling for him. What the hell was she doing falling for people anyway? Especially people planning to kill off her gang. It was strange, very strange.
She had to be careful, give Montana information without giving him enough to go out and kill Damien. Damien underestimated him, Montana would kill him, and he had a gang backing him up, but Casey was planning on staying out of it when it came to that.
"His name's Damien. He's a bit shorter than you, bit smaller, brown hair. He used to be in the mafia, so he knows what he's doing with shit. He's got a rock that he's sharpened, and he's not one to fuck around. When he says he's gonna do something, he follows through. Be careful with him, he doesn't like that you've got power, and he knows that he can get to you through Nicole," she said, only realizing afterwards that in order for her to know that he followed through with threats, something had to have happened to her. Would Montana catch on and ask about it? She fucken hoped not.

Montana didn't say anything. He had a feeling, a gut feeling that there was something Casey wasn't telling him. And that made him a little angry. He didn't let it show, cause after all, she just gave him valuable information. And he still had one thing on his mind. The kid. He would find it, and find the one who took it. And he would kill him, plain and simple. And he would kill anyone who got in his way. Finally Montana clued in to what he should have done when she first told him about the baby. Disregarding her aversion to touch, he moved in for a hug.
"Case, I promise you, I will not rest until I make sure that the baby is safe. I give you my word on our friendship." Montana wasn't the father, but he was planning on being like one to the baby. Casey was like a sister to him, and he would, and will, do anything to make sure she was okay. Of course, it proved to be a bit harder when secrets were kept, but he had to make due. Life on this island was a whole new kinda of ball game, and Montana was gonna have the change his game up if he was gonna survive.

Casey could almost feel his gut feeling. Montana wasn't dumb, he had to know she was leaving something out. The only thing she could hope for would be that Montana would trust her. She only left out things when she had them under control. She didn't need Montana knowing that Damien had attacked her, that he'd done things to her, and that somehow, he'd twisted himself around and she'd ended up falling for him. She had the situation under control, it was just a matter of how Montana would judge her opinion of 'under control'
Slightly startled when he moved in for a hug, she remained still, surprising herself by leaning into it ever so slightly. Casey was far from the huggable type, but she couldn't quite shake the feeling of safeness that Montana had about him, especially during the hug.
"Don't promise not to rest. You've got other threats to deal with than Aiden, and... Maybe he's better with them," she said uncertainly, seeming to lose a bit of her cool edge as she spoke.
"I... I dunno if I'm cut out to be a mother, Montana. He was the result of my last night in hell... But on the other hand, he's still mine... I dunno what to do anymore,"

Montana rolled his eyes. "You carried that little fucker for 9 months, he's yours, and I'm not stopping until he's back in your arms. Besides, I could possible take care of 2 birds with 1 stone with this." Something definitely was up with Casey and Damien, and Montana would try and use it to his advantage. Damien would jump all over the chance to get his hands on Aiden, whether it was romantic or for less than noble reasons, but Montana could take on one man better than he could take on an entire tribe. He would find Damien and convince him to go along with Montana to rescue the kid. He would deal with whatever secret casey was keeping from him another time. Releasing his hug, he looked at her. "You gonna be okay kid?"

"Less than nine months, he was premature, but aside from that, no stones please. Knowing you and your beautiful withdrawaly aim, you'll hit Aiden and not the other bird," she commented. Both Montana and Damien had sworn to get the baby back, hell maybe that could be the common ground that the two met on. After all, they had something in common now, a shared interest in her child's safety. Poor kid was gonna grow up with no idea who his real father was- there'd be Montana, Damien, JC, who knows who else.
As she was released from his hug, she remained where she was before shifting away just a tad, more so out of habit than anything else. She couldn't help but scowl though as he spoke, a playful scowl.
"First of all, Mister Jones, you can no longer justify calling me kid. I'mma mum, and I became one before you did... Does that mean I get to call you kid?" she replied, trailing off ever so slightly before remembering that a second usually had to follow a first of all.
"And secondly, I'm always okay, no need to go all worry-ish," she finished.
