The Scorch Trials

Chapter 47

Everyone was kind of shocked about all this, Jonie and I kept looking at each other... She did look like me, except her eyes were brown, mine were blue. I just... I can't wrap my mind around it... We're... Sisters? We had the same mother... The same father... The same relatives... It was all mind boggling. I know Teresa was my sister by our bond, but Jonie was my sister by blood.

"I...uh..."
Was all that came out of my mouth, I walked over to the rest of the group, Anna near Kylie, Teresa and Thomas still on the ground...

"Um Jonie I don't know..."
I said as I got up to her, she looked at me for a brief moment then she hugged me. At first I didn't know what to do, but then... I hugged back. My head was over hers, as I looked out at everyone watching us. I felt my shirt get wet, was she crying...? She looked up at me, tears down her face,

"Are you okay?"
I asked quietly, she nodded slightly,

"Please, don't ever leave me. Please?"
She said shakily, before I knew it my eyes were watery too... I didn't know what to say to that, I hugged her again,

"I promise. I promise I won't leave you, and hey... We're going to get out of here. I'm going to get you out of here."
I whispered the last part, she kept crying...

This was my sister. My only blood relative I knew of. The one who shared my parents. The one who I had been away from for so long. The one who was taken into WICKED when she was 6, and I was 8. I wouldn't let her get hurt... Ever.

When Jonie quit sobbing, we went back over to Teresa, everyone did almost, except Clary and Anna kept an eye on the cyborg. She wasn't crying anymore, she was just staring into space, Thomas laying flat behind her... Oh god. I ran orotund to look at Thomas, he was breathing, but shaky, he was hot, but his hands were ice. Newt came around to look at him,

"What do we do? About all of this..."
I asked looking down at Thomas's pale face, he sighed,

"I don't know, but we'll get through it together."
He said quietly, I scoffed,

"Really? Last time I checked you weren't to find of that idea earlier."
I said annoyed, he raised a brow,

"What are you getting at?"
Has asked, I heaved a heavy breath into the air.

"You just walk off into the desert, and you haven't been to eager on talking to me lately! What's up with that?!"
I whisper shouted, he sighed,

"Look in really sorry, I'm just going through some stuff."
I don't know why this was annoying me, but it was, he was making me angry.

"Stuff?! Really, stuff?! We're all going through 'stuff'! In case you haven't noticed some girl I remembered from group D's maze comes back from the dead! And-"
He held out his hand,

"Woah hold on w-"
I didn't let him finish, so I kept going.

"And I just found out I had a sister! Guess what else huh?! Teresa is freakin' terrified of ms, Thomas is really sick, I know Emma's real name! Kylie is Emma's sister, and Emma can't know that though so I have to keep this to myself, and Liz have you been standing there the whole time?!"
I asked irritated, she was staring over at me, and nodded,

"Well zip your mouth shut then."
I looked over at Brenda and Candy, giving me looks and checking out Kylie. Newt looked at me shocked,

"Well just like you have your problems, I have mine."
I narrowed my eyes, and gritted my teeth.

"Your lucky your not Brenda."
I growled through my clenched teeth, I didn't think Newt could anger me this much... Guess I am bipolar. Liz raised a brow from above.
