"What you gonna do, kill Minho with a nail file?" Newt smiled sarcastically as he slid the nail file from Jennifer's grip.
"You'd be surprised," She replied,
"You could've kept attacking him but you didn't, why?"
"Because I'm not allowed to kill him,"
"Why?"
"Because of you, isn't he your best friend or something? I'm not going to kill your best friend,"
"Appreciate it," it was quiet for a minute before Jennifer spoke,
"Newt, can you promise me something?" Jennifer asked,
"What?"
"I need you to promise me something,"
"Why?"
"Will you or will you not?"
"Depends what it is,"
"I need you to believe in me," She whispered.
"What?"
"That's all," She spoke quickly
"I don't get it,"
"You wont yet,"
"When will I?"

"Why would you do that?"
"Why would you lie?"
"For you own safety,"

"I'm as curious as all of you. I don't know anything about it it's just there,"
"Nothing? At all?"
"No,"
"What does the Trick mean?"
"What the hell do you think? Blondie your guess is as good as mine maybe better considering you belonged to them fuckers," she snapped,
"Well don't you too? Considering it says property-"
"Stop with all the ridiculous questions, Newt. Just shut up, tell the others I don't know anything I'm gonna stay out and hunt for a bit I'm starving,"
