My eyes flutter open. Where are we? I look around. Thomas is asleep at my feet and Newt is snuggled up on my arm. I sit up. "We have to tell them!" I hear Bell whisper from outside. "We can't. If WICKED ever found out we did, they'd have us all killed." Jorge. "It's eating me alive. Teresa is my sister. I lied to her. Thomas will think she betrayed him, we lied there too. Newt, poor thing, thinks there's a cure for him but we all know...." I jump out of the truck. "Let me guess. You lied to him too. What did you lie to me about. We lost our whole team out there. And you!" I yell directly to Bell. "What do you mean Newt...." The is a cough. "Could you guys keep it down?" Thomas asks. Newt is beside him. "Yeah." He says sleepily. Thomas is already back in the truck. "This isn't over." I whisper to them and climb back in too.
Bell and Jorge try to talk to me multiple times through the day but I just keep running.
At lunch, we finally take a break. It's about 3 based on the sun. "We should start traveling by night." Thomas suggests. We agree but keep running to find a place to stop until night.
About an hour more after running, we find a small shack. It's broken and it looks like its been set ablaze more then once. Newt walks in. He screams. I react immediately and pull out my knife. I charge in and point my knive to the thoat of the first thing that isn't newt. Newt laughs. I look at the person at the other end of my blade. "How ya doin shuckface." Minho says.
