Hidden Mysteries

The Betrayer - Thomas

Hello fellow Onion sons,

Just to clear things up, SHE refers to Teresa. If any of you are confused: The Grievers attacked because Teresa discovered the code in The Lightning Thief. If your confused about anything, just comment.

Thanks for reading!

~~~~~~~~~~

Thomas spent the whole day puzzling over the note. Who could it be referring to? But all that came to mind, really, was Teresa. She was the only girl in the glade, we often just called her the girl. But there was no way it was possible. Teresa was dead. Unless...

Thomas suddenly remembered their ability to communicate telepathically. He had beer had the swipe removed. The communicator was probably still there. But Teresa's would've gotten removed. But what if... what if...

"Oi! Shank! Earth to Thomas!" Minho's voice pulls me from my thoughts.

"What?" I ask, slightly annoyed. Minho rolls his eyes. "We're trying to figure out who SHE could be. I was asking you if you had any ideas." Thomas had plenty, although he did not want to share them with the group, so he just absently shook his head, staring off into space.

Suddenly, out of pure desperation, for answers, for her to be alive, Thomas called out to Teresa in his mind. No answer. Just like he'd thought. But five minutes later he heard something he thought he would never hear again. There was a voice in his head.

Tom?

Thomas's heart jolted with excitement.

Teresa?

Hi heart skipped a beat. It was more than he could hope for. Maybe his best friend wasn't dead after all. Was she really there?

Tom.This is important, so listen carefully. I didn't die. I'm out here, exploring my past. I've found something. A code. But that's not it. I saw a beetle blade. I think WICKED is watching me. Maybe it will effect you. But I don't know.

So She is Teresa. Just like I thought. And every time she makes a move, the grievers will come.

Teresa. It is effecting us. Aris is dead. Those bulb things from the scorch have attacked. And the most resent attack was a Griever attack. And afterwards there was a note. It said that whenever you make a move, the grievers will come.

Silence. Thomas counted a full minute before she replied, and this time, she sounded panicked.

Tom. You have to get out of there. I can't stop my search, it's important. I can hold off long enough for you to escape. But you need to get out of there, Tom. As fast as you can.

He knew Teresa was right. They couldn't stay, not with the constant threat of a griever attack looming over pure heads. And they especially couldn't afford any deaths like Aris's. Their numbers were far too low.
