The sun was up. We drove for a while longer. Jorge apparently knew where the last city was. He said he'd been there before, a long time ago. I just hoped that's where Minho would be.

So when we reached the outside of the city, Jorge parked the car and we all got out to take a look.

"Woah," I say getting closer to get a better view.

"Is that WICKED's solution to everything?" Frypan snorts, "walls?"

He was right. The last city had giant skyscrapers all surrounded by a giant wall.

"Do you have any idea on how we could get in Jorge?" Thomas turns to the elder man, awaiting to hear if he has plan, considering the fact that he's been here before.

"Don't ask me hermanos," Jorge adds, "those walls are new."

"Funny," Newt speaks up. "We spent three years behind walls trying to break out now we're trying to break back in."

I looked over at him. His fluffy blonde hair, which had grown longer in the past months, was flying in the wind. Newt had his hands in his pockets. I got closer and slipped my arm around his. Jorge, Brenda, and Fry start to walk back towards the truck.

"You really think Minho's in there?" Newt breaks the silence.

"Let's hope," Thomas responds.

"You know she's gonna be there," Newt speaks up as the three of us gaze at the city. "Teresa."

Thomas looks over at him. A blank look written on his face.

"We better get going then," I start to drag Newt to the car. "Come on Thomas." I call out.

Thomas takes one final look at the city, then follows us.

"Aquí vamos muchachos ," Jorge sighs. (For those of you who don't speak Spanish that means, here we go guys)

*********

Jorge found a path down towards the city. There were houses and buildings surrounding the walls that kept everyone out. Eventually, we got out of the car and began to search for a way in.

"Stay close hermanos," Jorge lead us through the sea of people.

Everyone out here looked poor and sad. As if they were barely surviving, and yet again I felt bad for these people.

"Stay by me love," Newt told me. I nod, gripping his hand in mine tighter.

We kept walking through the people trying to find a way to the front by the walls. Once we got there it was pretty obvious outsiders weren't allowed. I looked around and saw some bergs flying above us, almost identical to the one we had stolen from WICKED. When they plane like vehicles pass directly above us, I feel a small pain on the back of my neck. The tracker. I turn to my friends and see that on the back of the boy's necks, there is a flashing light. That can't be good.

My eyes move to the people around us. Then I found some people staring at us. I thought it was just a coincidence, but when I move my eyes farther around, there were more people looking at my friends and me. All of them dressed in similar outfits. Black face shields hiding their identities.

"Guys," I tap my boyfriend's arm, trying to warn the others. "Guys we gotta go. Like right now!"

"What is it hermana?" Jorge looked back at me.

"We're being watched," Thomas answers for me.

Jorge, Brenda, Fry, and Newt all take a look to our surroundings and I can see their facial expressions shift a little as they spot our stalkers.

"Wait what's that?" Frypan darts our attention to some movement on top of the walls.

I squint my eyes to try and get a better look. I can't seem to make it out because of the distance, but whatever it is, it doesn't look good.

"We need to move!" Jorge yells.

Finally, I notice that the things in fact are weapons aimed directly at the group of people we're standing in.

"Run! Go!" Thomas pushes us back in the direction we came from.

From underneath I felt the earth rumble as the weapons were being shot. Loud explotions caused the dry dirt from the ground to sprinkle everywhere. The people who were watching us come closer. Screams echo around us. I don't dare turn back when I feel an explosion meters away from me. It causes me to fall to my knees as a awful ringing takes over my hearing. I try to let out a scream, but can't hear it myself.

Then, I realize a bigger problem which is, I somehow got separated from Newt. I begin to panic, but calm down as I'm met with the brown eyes of my lover once more. I reach my arm out as an attempt to grip Newt's hand but fail as one of the men, who were watching us, pulls me up by the waist and starts to carry me away.

"Newt!" I shout, this time being able to hear my own voice. The man start to pull me harder and further away from my friends. "Get the hell off me!" I try to kick and squirm out of their grip, but I fail.

"YN!" I hear the accented voice call out for me.

"NEWT!" I yell louder. The men are successful though and they shove me into their car.

My friends. I need to get back to them. We need to find Minho.

The taller guy shoves Brenda into the car, along with Thomas. Newt, Frypan, and Jorge, however, are not with us.

"Thomas! Brenda!" I gasp when I see them. "Where's Newt and the others?" I wait for an answer but am interrupted by one of our kidnappers.

"Be quiet!" The man shushes me by pointing a rather large gun at me. Intimidated by it, I listen and sit next to Thomas with my back to the side of the van.

We can't see the people who kidnapped us faces' because of a face mask covering them, and I sit and wonder who these people could be and what the hell they want. But more importantly, I think of Newt, my boyfriend. We've never really been separated since back at WICKED, and I worry I'll never see him again. The thought alone brings tears to my eyes as I stare at the ground, but I don't let them fall. I'm not giving up yet.

A/n- I'm so sorry this took forever and it wasn't very good. I'll make sure to get the next chapter published sooner.
