Blaze didn't seem to like the sound of that. "... Send Nic," she suggested.

Wolfe sighed a little, "Nic's... on a private island trying to sort out his relationship with Laurel. And I can't risk him being seen."

Blaze cussed under her breath for a bit before shrugging it off. "The sooner I start the sooner it's over," she decided.

Wolfe nodded, "I'll show you where he should be," he stated, turning towards the door.

Blaze took a deep breath before following after Wolfe.

Wolfe showed Blaze a map, where Kale had last checked in and where he should be. "Normally I wouldn't be worried but he's still recovering," he explained.

Blaze didn't say anything as she took the map and went to go gather whatever she thought she needed.

Wolfe let her be.

So Blaze went Kale hunting.

Kale was not where he should be, that much was clear. He didn't seem to have ever reached this point.

--

It was early afternoon when hunger finally drove Laurel from her spot on the beach and over to the pod. She got some water and a bit of food before glancing over at Nic's side of the beach.

So Blaze cautiously started back tracking, checking the places he probably would have gone between here and the last check point.

--

Nic appeared to be snoozing. He hadn't left his side since they spoke the other night.

After back tracking for awhile Blaze finally found some signs of Kale. They were tiny signs but she could tell he left the path he was supposed to go early on. It was going to take some time to follow his trail, he didn't seem to have a set destination.

--

Laurel watched Nic for a long time before grabbing a few more things and walking over to him.

Blaze took some extra precautions before following the trail.

--

Yeah, Nic was asleep. He didn't wake as Laurel came over.

Blaze followed the trail further and further from the path he should have taken. Then suddenly all trace of him vanished. He was probably somewhere close.

--

So Laurel sat there, wishing she could sleep. After a moment she stuck a sunscreen patch on his arm and then leaned back against a tree.

Blaze kept her guard up, checking for anything suspicious.

After awhile there was a hushed whisper, "Get down, boulder!" It sounded like Kale but he wasn't visible wherever he was hiding.
