katie

we lose the level. i don't care when i hear. i don't care when i'm on the shuttle. in fact i don't care about anything right now. i can't. of all the things that have happened to me i cannot care about it. i do not have it in me to care. because if i care i will stop moving. and if i stop moving i won't be able to get revenge.

the level recap is long and hard. it goes over the footage of what happened to everyone else. they conveniently don't show what happened in the room. in the room with terrence and kassie and kally and henry.

they do say terrence is not with us anymore. they do say they need to investigate and secure the future levels. they do say we will be going online for the rest of classes this year. amy says her family will take me again. but they also say something else.

there's a rumor going around that my mother is coming back. my mother is coming here. it's rumblings from amy's parents. from the principal of army university. all the online classes. amy is by my side. any time i moves she stands by my side.

we don't talk about terrence. we don't talk about what happened. we don't need to. we both hate it. we both know this is only the beginning. we both know that the end of this war is far from over. that this battle is far from over. that terrence isnt the last one that's going to die.

and worse yet that man that killed terrwnce, i've seen him before. the day that man died outside my family's house. the day this all started. what's worse, i'm pretty sure now more than ever that he was terrence's dad. that the only reason im alive has been the repeated sacrifices of people like him.

kassie isn't going to be the last one to betray me. ken isn't the only one that is going to betray me. i'm all alone with amy. amy is the only one i can trust. and even then i don't feel like i can.
