YOUR POV

"Y/n." I hear in my head.

"Newt." I say.

"We are now in a place that's really hot. Are you too?"

"Yes. It is so hot I can't stand it."

"I know. I wish you were here."

"I wish I was too. I really think-" There is a pause.

"What do you think?" He says nothing. "Newt." I say. Again nothing. "Newt!" Where has he gone. What has happened. He has to be okay. He must. "NEWT!" I really hope nothing bad has happened but I don't know what to say. I can't think of anything good that could have happened that resulted in this. Aris looks over at me with worry in his eyes.

"Are you alright?" He asks.

"Sure." Respond. Although I feel as if I've just been hit by a train. He gives me a small smile that somehow makes me feel better. He always knows how to do that.

"It's getting dark. We should stop to sleep." Harriet says. We set up camp in the middle of nowhere, close to nothing. I don't know how we're going to make it in time. However it plays out, we have to make it. I have to figure out where Newt is, and if he's still alive.
