          All I can think about is how Zachary was acting. This is the time of war. I can't be thinking about relationships.
"Kaitlyn look at this!"
Jackson picks up a note. He hands it to me and I read it:
Day 876
Isn't the weather bright today. I hope I'll find some flowers. Me myself and I have been waiting for the flowers to start blossoming. Please blossom flowers. Yes, i  am a happy person. I am not on a cheer squad, the last time a did a cartwheel was on the floor.  Although I will come to a basketball game quickly. Yes they will not notice me but they will sure kill it at finals. Maybe I'll find new clothes for me.
Poems by prisoner.
My eyes were wide as Jackson grabbed the note back.
"He wrote some weird stories."
"No Jackson he didn't. This is code, he underlined certain words. He spelled out find me please I am on the last floor, come quickly,they will kill me. We have to go find the last floor."
"I already know where it is... Kaitlyn please don't do this."
He looked up at me with a pleading look.
"I have to. The more people we have to defeat Captain Thorne the better."
"It's not that it's just."
"Jackson."
I looked at Jackson and  continued walking. He sped up and we walked in silence.

Zachary's Pov:

       Maddie and I hid behind a wall as we tried to listen to guards communicating over a telepath. I got this, Maddie mouthed. She took out an hour glass and put it against the wall. She shaved off the bottom with her pocket knife and flipped it over to the larger side. I have to admit she was a very smart person, maybe that's why I liked her so much. But that's not how I loved Kaitlyn.
"Zachary I got it!"
She whispered. I put my ear to the hour glass and my eyes went wide.
"Captain Thorne we got the Spy into one of the escapers grasp."
Spy ? There were spy's here?
"Yes Jackson Reed has been associated with Kaitlyn Greenburg."
Jackson. Jackson was a spy all along. And he's putting Kaitlyn in danger.
"They are heading to the last floor of the building. We we'll be waiting for them there."
I turned to Maddie who's expression was completely confused. I grabbed her hand and ran away from there as far as possible.
"What the hell Zachary!"
"Jackson and Kaitlyn. Jackson is a spy."
Maddie looks at me then slings her backpack over her shoulder.
"Your lying. Spy's. With Kaitlyn? She could be in danger. Spy's have rags that can make you go unconscious in a second."
Oh my lord, Kaitlyn I'm so sorry.
"We have to go find her, now!"
"Zachary.... Would you do the same for me?"
"What?"
"Would you rescue me."
"I'd rescue anybody."
"Huh, but you'd risk your life for Kaitlyn?"
"It's not like that."
"Yeah okay Zachary."
I shake my head and I run forwards. Adrenaline pumping through my blood as I dash across the hallways, not even caring if I got caught by a guard. This is all my fault. Maddie running behind me. I'm coming Kaitlyn.
