(chapter 23 summary the group found the old mall and had to escape the cranks winston then became sick and shot himself lizzie tried to sneak away from camp to commit suicide but she was stopped by newt who explained the story about his leg they then re joined the group)
the sun has completely blistered your arms your lips are cracked your mouth is dehydrated everybody seems to have run out of water which is a really bad thing if you don't find water soon its game over.
it's taking everything to just keep walking everybody in the group seems to be in a similar situation teresa has a scarf over her head minho and aris are wearing jackets over their heads unfortunately your jacket was cute you should of grabbed something more functional you didn't think you would be in the scorch this long
you lay on the sand rolled up to block sand going into your face you still feel low weak like nothing matters which nothing dose but you wont try to take your life again not after what newt said it was gonna be hard you might never move on but you were gonna fight this. you drift of to sleep not having the energy to dream
"hey hey get up"
you ignore thomas and roll over on the sand
"newt get up come on lets go frypan aris lizzie get up"
"i see something" thomas calls out
you roll over and get up groaning
"whoa what is it
"is it sand by any chance" you sound half asleep ohh wait you are half asleep
"you see that"
you see lights in the distant faintly you turn around seeing storm clouds
"its lights"
"we made it" minho says
"umm guys"
they all turn around and look at you then notice the storm as if on que for dramatic effect a lighting bolt shoots out the sky and scorches the sand around it thomas grabs newt
"lets go we gotta go come on"

"come on lets keep moving"
Thomas shouts you get distracted and nearly slip on the sand you push yourself forwards to stop yourself falling ripping the muscle in you back in the process your dodging lighting left right and center adrenaline pumping through your veins like a drug your body can't get enough of
your so close you can see the building with the light you pray this is the place your looking for or that they will atlest help you the lighting is getting closer and closer to your group each time
"we're getting closer"
your ribs radiate with pain you want to drop the floor the adrenaline must be running out why running you take note of old cars the car you just ran past is set on fire by lighting maybe don't hide in a car then
the group splits up slightly your running along side minho your impressed that you can even keep up with him since after all he was the keeper of the runners for 3 years or sumthin you see a lighting strike it was aimed right at you jump out the way but its to late your flung of the ground you hit the floor with force and everything fades into darkness
