Newt's POV:

We run through the burning city and ruins. Always making sure to cover from any incoming explosions or gunshots. I try my best to keep my eyes on my beloved YN as we race through the last city. Her arms fall to the sides, swaying back and forth whenever Fry speeds up. She's going to bleed out if we don't get her medical attention. I panic, struggling to keep up after the, I guess you could call it eventful night. What mattered now was getting everyone safely back to the berg that Brenda said Jorge had brought.

"We're almost there!" Brenda shouts, speeding past in the front, leading the group to the berg.

Dashing through dark allies and abandoned streets, my friends and I desperately try to reach safety. My eyes are still damp, showing that I have cried a lot throughout this depressing night.

Minho kept me moving forward, making sure I didn't fall behind the entire way. Even though i should've been the one taking care of him, considering he was the one who had just spent six months under WICKED's control.

"I see it just up ahead!" Brenda calls, shielding her eyes from the bright fire lights.

The rest of us continue to follow her and our pace starts to slow down as we come closer to the berg. I myself am able to come forth to where Frypan still holds YN. She remains unmoving. The dark veins from earlier fade a bit, indicating that the bliss is working, but it won't save her like Tommy said. The bliss will only slow the flare down.

I gently touch the side of her head, while still jogging at a good pace. "Hold on love," I whisper under my breath where probably only Frypan could here me.

We're only a few yards away and the door or the berg opens revealing Jorge, Vince, and a boy?

"Over here muchachos!" Jorge yells with his loud deep voice as he waves his arm in the air.

Frypan runs with no problem, still holding onto the h/c colored girl. And once we reach the berg he hands her over to me, knowing that all I want is to hold her close and help the girl I love. The others lean on slightly down, attempting to catch their breaths. Vince and Jorge starts shooting questions but only one catches my attention.

"What's wrong with her?" Vince questions, comes towards me, watching me as I hold YN at the entrance of the giant berg. I lean my forehead on hers, wanting to wake up and realize all this was just a bad dream. But that's not going to happen.

"She got stabbed." I manage to say between breaths. "The flare. Her stomach." I spit out words that probably don't explain the situation too well.

The rest of the group's attention is on YN and me.

"There's a room on the berg with a bed right there!" Jorge states, pointing at an closed door. "Lay her in there and we'll figure out how to help her."

"I'll help you," the boy speaks who I now recognize as Quintin, the doctor who supposedly knew YN. "I've worked by doctors my whole life. I think I can help."

"Who the hell are you?" Minho asks while the curly haired boy opens the door for me. It just now comes to my senses that nobody except YN and me know who the boy is. I know who he is, but like my friends, I haven't a clue what he is doing here.

"Quintin. YN sent him. He got us the bliss." Gally briefly explains. "He helped us."

"But she's a crank." Vince speaks up. "We can't take her back with us."

"Thomas went back to get the cure." Brenda defends, knowing that I can't do that right now. "We have to find him if we want to get the hell out of here as soon as possible,"
