First of all...sorry that I was so inactive.
I don't have much time right now, cause I've holidays ;)

Teresas Pov:

I turned my head a little too fast so my hair flew all over my face. Even if they were much shorter now than before, they still bothered us.
My breathing quickened as I looked back and saw the danger.
"Drive faster!"
I snapped at Newt, who only looked at me with a creepy look.
I turned back briefly to think about it. I held on to the door, because the hills over which we drove at this speed shook us vigorously.
Without thinking further, I swallowed my fear briefly and clung to the frame of the car to climb over it.
'Come on Tess!'
my head shouted as I hang out here, trying to hold on to climb up.
Newt called after me, but I couldn't hear him because of the wind.
As fast as I could I pushed myself to the floor of the roof and pulled out my gun.
I tried to aim at the drivers and enemies who were chasing us here. My heart was in my throat and skipped every shot.
I met, was proud of myself ... but I didn't hit enough.
So I turned on my back quickly, looked up at the sky and took a short breath.
Wow ... who would have thought? Everything was just fine!
We had fun and continued our carefree flight.
Then we found a reasonably usable car and drove on with it.
That after that was best ... Newt had kissed me, by himself, more than once!
And even if I was completely confused, I enjoyed it.
And this journey to hell had become more of a road trip.
But then these people came and shot us.
We didn't know who they were or what they wanted.
The only thing that was certain was that we had to defend and so I was looking here!

"You're still killing us!"
I yelled at Newt.
"Yes ?! Then you better do it!" he growled back.
The 'romantic' mood was definitely gone.
Why actually always us ?! In the meantime I was back in the car and we were still slamming around somewhere in nowhere.
And our only goal was to survive, even though we didn't even know what the danger was.
He made a sharp left turn and I fell on my side.
My head hurt indescribably! The whole bob was driving me crazy, and Newt apparently too.
My breath was really quick now, but my stamina was our smallest problem.
I looked back again, I couldn't see anything.
To make sure I was right I turned around again, but actually ... there was nothing left.
"Newt I think we left them behind." He also looked back, then forward again.
But he said nothing for a while.
"Yes I think so."
He slowed down his pace. I started laughing out of the blue, really.
At first he looked at me very confused, but then he giggled too! And for a moment I forgot about my headache.
He really had a great laugh, why had I never noticed that?
We looked at each other for a while and then I looked ahead again.
"Hey watch out!" I screamed.
He hit the brakes and we both swallowed hard.
That shouldn't be the case now! We were surrounded.
In the next moment people came with masks, pulled us out of the car and then it went black.

I woke up with headache, really, really bad headache.
What the fuck happend?
I wanted to look around and scan the room, but there was nothing.
I just saw black. Something was befor my eyes.
And it made me feel more worse, because I hated seeing nothing. I always did, but that did not helped me.
I touched the ground, Hopefully I would find something.
And then Newt came trough my mind...Newt!
Where was he?! Was he okay?! Was he dead?
Thinking about it made my headache even more worse...was that possible? Beeing in the maze with all the grievers was better, definitely.
I tried to come down.
Breath in, breath out. I could relax a bit, but not really much.
I needed water really bad....this Kidnappers were really dumb.
I mean..If you kidnapp somebody you want something from him/her...and letting him/her die because he/she doesn't get water is really stupid.
I sighed.
I had to think less.
Mabye I should scream?
But no, that wasn't my style...I wasn't that type of girl.
So I just sat there and did nothing, and it made me go crazy.
But hey...I did not died.
It felt like 1000 years, but I guess im fact I just 2 ours here...mabye 3.
And it was definitely the weirdes thing I have ever experiensed.
And I was Teresa Agnes...literaly anything has happend to be befor.
I was so tired too!
My eyes felt so heavy and the darkness made it more easy to sleep in...so I just did it.

Suddenly I woke up.
Someone had light the room, or where ever I was.
It actually looked morge like a hall, or a equitment room.
My arms and legs were previously handcuffed, but now I can move freely.
I got up first, almost falling over again as my legs gave out.
When I caught myself again, I looked around. This room was gray and gray, there are only a few boxes here ... not really much other stuff.
And then I saw Newt next to me. He looked just as dazed, but he seemed to be fine.
I exhaled in relief, my facial features relaxed a little.
I was about to say something, he had noticed me for a while and was smiling at me, but the door popped open and a woman with long black hair and two men came in.
Without any formalities, she got straight to the point.
"I have three questions. First who are you? Second, where are you from? and third, where are you going and what do I get from not killing you right away? "she looked cold, but her eyes said something else.
I was good at reading people.
Only now did I think about her question, she reminded me of Jorge.
I was about to answer, but Newt got ahead of me.
"Umm ... first nice to meet you and second, why should we tell you that?" At first he looked sarcastic and teasing, but then he became more threatening.
"Very easy ... otherwise I'll kill you in a moment."
At the same time Newt and I looked at each other, his gaze made me hesitate for a moment, but I started to talk anyway.
"Our names are Tess and Newt, we are Immune. Come from the last city, have fled from Wckd and have lost our friends through certain circumstances. Now we are on the way to the safe haven."
Of course I didn't tell her the whole truth
"Scan them!" she ordered and the two men brutally grabbed me, making me wince.
The device lit up green and the woman suddenly smiled broadly at us.
"Well then you are right here!"

The woman who introduced herself as Victoria was not much older than us, and she was actually very nice. She had brought us new clothes and we had showered.
My wet curls now fell around my shoulder and I felt really healthy.
And I felt also kinda save.
She was just leading us through a few corridors, some children came towards us.
Every now and then we would pass a common room and that place was alive.
Not as gray as I had first thought, people looked happy, although you couldn't actually be happy in this world.
I also notice that there were actually only children here, but of course many adult gourds. What was this place? Newt seemed like he could read my mind.
"What is this?" asked Newt.
"We are an organization, no not like Wckd. We see and rather as a rescue station, like that of animals, only with children.
We fly all over America,sometimes also over other parts of the world, scouring the cities for kids and teens ... mostly they're orphans.
Then we scan them, most of them are not infected, so we take them with us. Here they are for a few weeks, they are fine here. Then can eat, sleep and play.
And then we ship them to the safe haven, they can lead a normal life. "
I hadn't noticed that we were now in a bedroom with a pretty cute purple colour.
But she almost left us alone and went to the door.
"The next ship leaves tomorrow afternoon, you're in luck. And now ... sleep a little, you look pretty exhausted."
