Chapter 13: Save Minho

~Y/n P.O.V.~

It was light out, now. The whole campsite was ruin. The fires from the expulsions had went out. Now all there was, was smoke. I sat on one of the crates, beside Thomas. I hadn't said a word since then.

I mean, what do you say, after the love of your life gets kidnapped by people who wanna test you, take your blood, all for a cure that they'll probably never find, because someone who you thought was like a sister to you, betrayed you? And also, when those people work for your mother...

"What do we do now?" Frypan spoke up.

"Well, we pick up what's left of us. We stick to the plan. We get you kids to the Safe Haven. Then we start over, I guess." Vince said.

I stayed sitting down for a second before standing up, shaking my head.

"I'm not going with you." I spoke up after hours of not talking.

All their gazes snapped to me. Usually, I wouldn't like peoples eyes on me. But now, I didn't care. All I cared about, was Minho.

"What?" Vince asked.

"I made a promise to Minho. I wouldn't leave him behind. I have to go after him. We promised we'd always stick together. That we'd do anything for each other. And I'm not breaking that promise. Because I love him." I said.

"Hey, kid, look around you. Alright? Wicked just kicked our ass. You think about where you're headed." Vince said.

I shook my head, "My mother... she wouldn't harm me. And I'm not asking anyone to come with me."

"Y/n, listen to me. I've known Minho for..." Newt paused, thinking. "Well, as long as I can remember. So, if there was any way that we could help him. Trust me, I would be up there standing next to you. This, what you're talking about... is impossible. Even if your mother wouldn't do anything."

"More like suicide." Jorge spoke up from my left.

I glanced at him before speaking again, "Maybe. But I know what I'm supposed to do now. It's not just about Minho. It's about all of us. It's about everyone Wicked's ever taken, everyone they will take. They'll never stop. They'll never stop, so I'm gonna stop them."

I glanced at Newt, Thomas, and Frypan, seeing them gazing up at me. All three of them smiled slightly at me.

"I have to admit," Harriet spoke up, "I'd like some revenge."

"Me too. For Minho." Thomas spoke up, smiling at me. 

I smiled back.

Vince looked at Harriet before looking back at me, "Well, that's a good speech, kid. So, what's your plan?"

Everyone followed Vince's gaze, looking up at me. We were gonna get Minho back. Whatever it takes. I'd do anything for Minho to be safe again. And for Wicked to be stop.

Even if I had to die, to do it.
