"Answer me, Seth." Artemis says, her voice suddenly hard. "Is there a reason why we can't use the comm?"
She brings her head close to his, and stares into his eyes. "I want to trust you Seth, I really do. Because right here, and right now, the thing I need most of all is something I can believe in."
"I feel...I feel like I'm looking into an abyss, and hanging by a thread, and I need you to be honest with me..
She picks up the comm and stares at it the way a mouse stares at a cobra.
"Is it a trap? Will it give away our position? Is it a bomb? If I activate it, will it blow my head off? How about yours instead? What do you say, Seth? Shall we die together?" She holds the comm inches from his head, finger hovering over the power button.
Then, sanity decides to pay a visit. "No," She says, "That's crazy. Nobody is going to put a bomb into a radio. That's insane, even by my standards." She sighs in relief, laughs, and puts the comm down.
"Oh I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. " She shakes her head, "I've been on edge for so long, I guess I fell over it a bit." She looks him in the eyes again, this time pleading. "Forgive me?"

Seth looks and says, "I am a bit afraid to call or contact them. With the implant they have in us they can cause us to spontaneously combust. I saw them do that to one of the group of us who died. I think they are tracking us even now and can contact us if need be. Did I just hear something?" Seth looks around them to see if he can see the source of some noise.

"Oh, look, Seth! We have a visitor!" Artemis jumps up and rushes to greet Gault. Artemis smiles and extends her hand, "Artemis McKenzie, and I am so glad to meet you. This is my new friend Seth! Want some dinner? I just found some chicken and rice!"

In Character: Gault finishes sorting through the low shrubs, vines, and dead fall near the tree where he was hiding and searching.

"That wouldn't be one of those ready to eat meals would it?" Gault holds his breath for a moment then exhales, "Sorry, the name is Gault. I am a bit leery of food that I haven't prepared myself."

Gault stands, dusts himself off, then follows Artemis back towards the camp.

Artemis looks at he bag in her hand. "Oh. Yeah, all we have are these MREs. Then again we are in the middle of a jungle, and jungles are made of plants, so we could make some kind of salad, if we knew what was safe to eat, and..." She turns to Seth.
"Seth, what do you mean, they can makes us spontaneously combust? What kind of sociopath does that? Never mind, rhetorical question. They gave us a radio, they must expect us to use it. Maybe they expect us to provide daily progress reports."

"That is possible. Or maybe we can use it to see if any others can hear us. Hold on a second." Uses the communicator, "This is Seth Hello can anyone hear me?"

See if that gets a response.
