Once Kalena finally knew what was going on she decided that she wanted to be a part of the journey. If she got off of this island alive she could write about what they went through. She would need to go on these journeys and explorations so that she would have the experience in her own way, rather than having one of them tell the rest of the survivors what they saw or anything that happened. Of course Kat would make a new story about it, but people will definitely what more than one side of the incident. Maybe this story would be a big hit, and she would make lots of money from selling it too!

Yes, yes it IS all about the money, but only because she needed it to help her family in the Philippines. Her father was sick, and they couldn't afford to get him the medical stuff they needed to take care of him. They were barely able to send her to college in the States, too. Kalena told her family that if she became an author, she would give 50% of her profit to them.

The girl started to tear up, but she held the tears back. What good would it be to just start randomly crying? Kalena stood up and brushed the sand from her shorts. "Is it too late for me go with you?" She walked over to the small group. "I don't have any supplies except this bag. If we find somethings we can keep it in here." Kalena adjusted the light bag's thick strap across her shoulder.
