I gotta figure they are other survivors. Ana Lucia was on the plane. I would suspect that they have encountered "the others" and are therefore very suspicious of anyone they meet. And she is obviously with the people who are holding Jin, Sawyer, and Mike.
As far as Desmond running off....it made total sense to me. For at least three years he's been in that...bunker?...entering the numbers to stop a countdown that he obviously believes is necessary to continuing his survival and perhaps the survival of the world. When he thought the computer was destroyed, survival instincts kicked in and he wanted to get as far away from it as possible. I would suspect that he'll be back after a few days (island days) when he realizes that the island has not exploded. Of course, if he believes it to be something biological (he keeps injecting himself with something and took all of it with him), he may stay away longer.
