Brenda POV

We run to where Minho was picked up. Me and Thomas look for any sign of which way they went. And then it catches my eye. The light shine I see in the grass. I run to it. "Brenda!" He yells. Before I know it I have set off a trap. I feel something slice my arm and I fall down. I put my hand to my shoulder and look at the dark red liquid covering my arm. "Brenda!!!" Thomas yells while running after me. "Thomas?" I yell. "I'm here Brenda" he says grabbing my hand. "Thomas what-what hit me?" I say feeling tears form in my eyes seeing him so upset. "A dart. I think it is laced with something" he says tightening the grip on my hand. I see black dots form and cover my vision. "Thomas?...I am starting to fade in and out" I sat feeling tears drip down my face. "Brenda no! stay with me!" He cries. I try and hold on to consciousness. "Thomas.... I-i love you.." I get out. "I love you too-" and that is when I quit fighting.

Thomas POV

I check her pulse and her breathing. She seems fine. I hold on to her hand until the berg comes. They planned this. It lowers down and I keep myself close to Brenda. Not long after it lands 2 people in WICKED hazmat suits walks out and grabs my arm while the other grabs Brenda. "DONT TOUCH HER!" I scream fighting the sobs that come over me. "Stop! Don't touch her!" I scream. And that is when I feel the sharp needle go into my arm. I am out in seconds.

Brenda POV

I wake up strapped to a table. I feel my wrists and feel the cuffs that lock me down. "I turn my head and see Thomas on a table but with a mask over his face, almost like a oxygen mask. "Thomas.." I whisper. No answer. "Thomas!" I say louder. I see his eyes flutter open and look at me. He tries to pull his hands free but finds them cuffed to the table as well. "Thomas calm down!" I say trying to keep him calm. "Ah your both awake!" The voice rings in my ear, chancellor Paige. "Okay. Well it was hard to find you two" she says with a smile walking to a cabinet. "We need you, both of you" she smiles. "For what?" I spat. "Well Brenda we realized that you and Thomas are....how should I put this? Extremely close". I blush and can see Thomas blush as well. "What does that have to do with WICKED?" I ask. "We need your blood and some other things". "What other things?!" I yell. She grabs a photograph and smiles looking at it. "If you really want to know, we want your child" she says showing the ultrasound of Thomas and i's baby. I see Thomas face go pale and can only imagine his reaction when I throw up on the ground.
