I reeled on Derek, "who the hell do you think you are?" I demanded, "open
the damn gate right now Derek, or I swear this is the last time we'll be
coming here. I won't have you holding us prisoner like this." I glared at

another way to get off this damn island but believe me Derek, I will get
out!"
