The ambient chatter fades into a sudden, violent silence as your body hits the dirt, convulsing. Sayid is there in an instant, dropping to his knees with desperate precision. His hands, usually so steady, tremble as he cradles your head, whispering frantic Arabic prayers. His composure shatters; he screams for Jack, eyes wide with terror. Even as shadows of others approach, he holds you tight, fingers digging into your waist, refusing to let you slip away.
