Kaia put a cloth against Aris wound on his cheek making him grunt in pain, Kaia muttered a quickly sorry pulling back slightly but continued to clean his wounds on his face feeling Aris eyes on her as she did so.

She did not realize how much she missed feeling Aris's eyes on her, not that she would ever admit it to him.

"Here, drink this." Harriet came over handing mugs to Aris and Sonya looking at them both in concern.

"Took you guys long enough to rescue us." Aris commented with a wry chuckle his hand resting on Kaia's thigh, reminding him she is there and his other held the mug Harriet gave him.

"It's good to see you, too, bud." Thomas smiled gently at Aris and patted Aris on the leg, Newt kneeled next to Thomas and Brenda stood behind the two, "So what happened?" Thomas asked the question they were all thinking about Aris's black eye and bruised face.

"I fought back. Tried to, anyway." Aris told them gripping Kaia's hand who was sat next to him giving him hidden concerned looks.

"You're lucky you found us at all. They had us on the move a lot. It felt like something big was happening." Sonya informed them looking between them all, her eyes kept flickering back to her baby sister who didn't seem so young anymore.

"Any idea where they were heading?" Newt questioned them, he frowned slightly confused why his heart always squeezed painfully when he saw Sonya. He didn't even know her.

"All I know is they kept talking about a city." Aris informed them giving Kaia a thankful look as she finished cleaning his face.

"I didn't think there were any cities left." Harriet hesitated speaking sharing a look with the others.

"That's because there aren't." Brenda informed crossing her arms.

"Okay, wait. What about Minho? Why wasn't he on the train?" Thomas desperately questioned.

Sonya and Aris shared a look before Aris spoke, "I'm sorry, Thomas. He was."

Thomas bowed his head in defeat before getting up and walking away with Brenda following him.

Newt stood up nodding towards Aris and Sonya, "Thank you." Newt walked next to Kaia where she sat and he rubbed the top her head messing up her hair.

"Newttt!" Kaia grumbled trying to fix her hair as Newt walked away laughing softly following Thomas and Brenda.

Sonya smiled slighty seeing her sister comfortable with someone else, even if it felt like she knew him too.
