I didn't know she was watching me..
I didn't know she saw me...
I didn't know the little girl I was looking for was closer than I thought until I heard something fall and hit the ground...
I instantly turned around and on instinct pulled my gun that I always carried and pointed it towards the noise. I then said "Whoever is there come out.. I'm not going to hurt you.. I promise."
I waited for a few minutes thinking maybe the noise I heard was just an animal but then a small frightened figure appeared in front of me..
It was her.. there was no doubt I was looking at the little girl from the photo and from my dream..
Y/N'S (POV)
I was hiding behind some rocks watching Tommy.. when my foot slipped it made some of the rocks tumble and make noise.. Tommy had heard the noise and said for me to come out that he wasn't going to hurt me.. I walked out from my hiding spot and stood there just starting at him..
He seemed different he wasn't like the Tommy I knew from the glade and the scorch... I was just glad he was back and now we stop Ratman..
Before I say anything I'm shocked at what he does next "Tommy pulls out his gun and aims it at me and fires." I'm too scared to move..
Thomas's (POV)
I stand there probably in shock from finding the girl this fast.. she seems to be just as shocked to see me.. for what reason I don't know...
Before I can make my move to grab her I look behind her and see something that makes my blood run cold... A mountain lion apparently has been following this little girl without her even realizing it..
I slowly get my gun from my waistband and then I aim.. not wanting to kill the animal just frighten them to scare them off..
She's looking at mountain lion too stunned as to the danger she just avoided..
I put my gun back in my waistband and then I while the little girl has her back to me I pull out one of needles I brought with me that's filled with knock out liquid..
I walk up to her and she finally looks at me and says "Tommy we were going to come rescue you."
I look at her and reply "Oh rescue me? From who?"
She turns to face the mountains and then says "We we're going to rescue you from the bad people.. From Ratman."
I can feel a memory trying to get through but I push it down... I have to make my move before it's too late.. I have to rescue this girl from The Right Arm..
I'm still right behind her.. as I'm slowly pulling out the needle and when she points at the sunset I make my move.. plunging the needle into her neck.
I watch as she looks at me "Tommy? Why Tommy?..." She asks me just before she passes out..
I bend down and pick her up.. I notice it's at least late afternoon.. there's NO way I can make it back to Wicked before dark..
I had scouted the area earlier and found a cave.. I get both myself and the girl in the cave..
I pull out the blanket and cover the girl up with it.. I check my stuff that I brought.. while I'm going through the things I brought from food, needles and water I hear a small voice..
"NO.. LEAVE HIM ALONE!! PROTECT TOMMY!"
I'm sitting listening why would this girl want to protect me? Thomas thought..
