Diplomatically

You spin around swiftly, knocking off Adam's hand from your shoulder and look him in the eyes.

“I didn't dig up anything or hide anything.” You say.

“Where did you really find that knife then?” Taunts Adam, smirking at you.

If Adam was the one who dug up everything and set you up, then he must've realised that there was nothing under Amber's spot.

You quickly look over to Amber, instinctively thinking of a way to put her out of harm's way.

Wait, but there's no way to trace anyone to a specific spot. You relax a little, knowing the truth about the knife is hidden and Amber is fine.

“I told you, I just found it on the floor,” you say. “What's even in this stash you found?”

“You should know since you we're the one who hid it.” Says Adam.

“You're the only one pushing the idea that I hid this stash, what proof have you got?” You ask.

You turn to look at the other islanders, but they all look like they're siding with Adam on this one.

“You guys can't seriously believe this prick, he's clearly trying to pin it on me.” You state, raising your voice.

“You don't need to get aggressive, just tell us why you hid the stash and never told anyone.” Asks Will.

“I fucking told you, I didn't hide this stash!” You shout, getting frustrated.

“Bro, just chill out for a moment and sit down,” says Roman.

“You really think I hid all that stuff don't you?” You ask, as he avoids eye contact with you.

Adam is moving closer to you and he's holding your knife now. Maybe you had a shot at fighting him before but you can't take him on if he has a knife, there's just no way.

Your eyes dart to the jungle. There you'll have freedom and you know they won't follow you in.

“Fuck this, you'll see Adam for who he really is soon,” you start. “You won't realise how much you need me until I'm gone.”

You look at Amber, the one person that might believe your story. No. You need to figure this out on your own, she can't solve all your problems.

You turn and start running, making a beeline for the camp first, the others following after you but none of them even close. They're all shouting after you but you're not listening. Right now you only have one thing on your mind. Survival.

You grab the tomahawk from the stash near the camp, looking back and hearing the other islanders running after you and shouting obscenities at you. Realising you don’t have enough time to take anything else, you turn back and run towards the jungle.
