Alari watched as a chopper went over head.. looking at it over the jungle canopy the few holes it afforded her a view but mostly she listened.  Moving to the high ground still she began to climb. Working her way up the intense rise in the the islands form..  looking down as she reached an opening int eh dense foilage eventually she realized she was looking down into a bowl. The island was young, that was the volcanic crater.  Looking at the ridge from this view, she saw how it wrapped about the center of the island. Pausing another banana in hand.. gawd she would become damn sick of banana's in no time.<br/><br/>Tossing the peel over the side of the ridge she looked up as the sky began to darken and the scent and sounds of a rain approached.  Wonderful, she'd have uncontaminated water soon. Now if only she had something to carry it in. Resuming her climb she found a sturdy piece of hardwood..  checking it's length and strength. She nodded to herself and picked up a vine giving it a yank and checking the strength of it she tied the stick at a couple ends and slung it over her shoulder the stick hung over her back. The climb continued even as the rain fell she's pause to sip what fell from leaves kept going. Eventually reaching the top and looking out over the island. Seeing the large yacht out off shore.  The silence of the island broken only by the calls of birds and what animals were left there.  Quite certain there would be the hunters at different points she wondered who she he might encounter up here. Whoever it was, well wouldn't they get shock when she killed him, or her.<br/><br/><br/>__________________________________________________________<br/><br/><br/>Walking into the jungle with Alex she felt the change in the weather as she was searching the are looking up at trees with fruit on them. Indicating to the woman that Liz could climb and would toss the food down for her to catch.  Besides the tree wasn't to friendly looking and Liz had more clothing on.. she looked up again at the clouds coming over them, taking off her jacket she offered it to Alex.  Before she went to the tree and began to make her way up. Oh it was not the same as climbing the trees on the ranch they had more branches. Banana's and oranges thank the lord the oranges were easier trees to climb. But still all the same when she reached the ground again the silk top she wore was not looking it's best. Then the rain began it's way down and Liz tilted her head back to catch some of it.  Smiling briefly her hands moving. <asl><em>"Just when I was getting very thirsty too."</em>yes sometimes, there was someone looking out for you. Oh how she prayed they kept on doing so.
