"And look for Veronica!" Chloe added emphatically. "And Aidan. And Quentin." Not that she really thought they'd overlook that task, but--it needed saying.
"Don't worry, C," Faith said in Chloe's ear. Chloe flinched, startled by Faith's sudden presence. Damn but Faith could move quietly when she wanted to! "We'll come back for them. We'll find them."
"...yeah," Chloe said. She felt depressed now. She knew Daniel was right. There was no way to track them. It was still raining. It was getting dark. And there were an unknown number of bad guys lurking...somewhere. Enough bad guys to overpower Veronica, Aidan and Quentin along with all the prisoners.
(Unless they were working with the prisoners,) Chloe thought. She chewed on that idea for a moment, then dismissed it. As far as they could tell nobody on the island--even new arrivals like John and Erin--could remember who they were. So any sort of scheme to break their buddies out of jail seemed rather unlikely. Hard to rescue your friends if you don't even know you have friends, or who they are, or where they are....
"If we're going," Chloe said to Faith, "let's go." Standing the rain wondering what had happened to their comrades was just too damn depressing.
