Ed ran to the beach and quickly picked up his cell phone.
" We need to find two kids who look just like Alex and Scout." He said on the phone.
" I know there are laws against steeling peoples kids! Find an orphan, homeless, kid or a run away!" He continued.
" I went into this to make money not to lose money! I wanted to make a name for my self.. The host with the most! I gotta go figure this all out. Talk with you later." Ed hung up the phone and walked down the beach.

Rick was hiding behind the tree listening in on it all. " I wonder who he is talking to..." Rick thought.

Suddenly a man came up behind Rick. " What were you doing here behind the tree? Were you spying? Because I think you know what happens to spies! " Said the man.

Back at home, Alex's family quickly brought up the case with a court.
Judge: So what happened?
Alex's Father: Well this show, which our son was on, recently died. We want to sue him for 4,000,000 because letting him die.
Judge: what does the defendant have to say?
Ed: Umm Nothing D:
Judge: what does the jury say?
Jury: GUILTY!
Judge: - bangs gaffel - Guilty! Defendant you owe the plantiff 4,000,000 Dollars!
Ed: great.. that takes away some ( less than half ) of our money..

Scout high-fived Alex when they met up in the woods. "What now?" he asked. Scout thought for a moment, then remembered. "Oh yeah, I'm R.S.V.P-ing with Lee in an hour on the beach. Something important.."

Scout was casually walking to meet Lee, but broke into a sprint when she saw a familiar figure lying on the beach. "Lee, you ok?" she said when she reached him. He groaned. "Something important..." he said. "Tell us later. First lets get you back inside the forest." Scout dragged him into the woods where Alex was waiting.

Scout sighed and ran to the campsite to leave a note.

Lee drowned, no sign of body. I never thought the plan would go wrong.
-Scout

Then she walked off, hoping they weren't too upset.

Hannah walked outside and saw a note. "Come out here quick!" She yellled.
Everyone rushed out of the cabins to see what Hannah was yelling about. "What is it Hannah?" Leslie asked. "Lee drowned!" Hannah screamed.

I kicked the men as hard as i could for as long as i could, but i knew it was useless.
By the time i got tired out i was already halfway across the island.
They put me inside a strange metal box inside part of one of the mountains.
It had air, thankfully. I think it was a type of dungeon.
I knew screaming would be of no use, hopefully my cell would get a signal.
No bars... Drat. That didn't work.
"Now what can i do?" i thought. Suddenly i heard voices. I turned around and saw TV screens in front of me, they showed most of the island. Except for the cabins, of course. I saw the note Hannah had in her hands and almost screamed.

Scout and Lee were wondering through the forest when Scout tripped on a root. Suddenly, she started sinking. "Scout, whats going on?" asked Lee, worriedly. Scout shouted at him. "Run, this quicksand isn't natural!" Lee hesitated, then fled. Slowly, Scout's head went below the sand, but instead of suffocating, she fell a few feet, and then landed on something that felt like a body. "Ow!" said a familiar voice.

"Ow!" I shouted as something landed on my head. After struggling to get my eyes open, i saw sunlight. "Sunlight, here?" Then i saw Scout on the floor next to me. "Scout is that you?"
After waking her up i asked her what had happened and how she had found me.
"We didn't know you we're gone, sorry."
"It's okay, let's just focus on finding a way out of here." I said as i looked up at the hole in the roof, to high to climb to.

Scout put her head in her hands. "I'm sorry Rick. But I have even worse news. Ed is trying to kill us all off. He believes Alex and I are dead, and hopefully Lee as well. The others don't know Lee is alive, and they are probably worried about you to. And then Ed is going to kill us here, and we really will be dead." The thought was so depressing that Scout burst into tears.

"It's okay," I said as i held Scout. "I know if we all forget about everything and focus on getting off this island, we'll be able to outsmart them and out plan them!" Suddenly i had flashbacks of the girl, that strange girl we met.. they took her away.. but why?
