"See you in 3 days!" I yell as the rest of the group heads out into the unknown. Maybe I should have gone with them. No. I dismiss the thought from my head. "Cora.." I flip around thinking its Bell. Nope, she's still sleeping, or dead. I cringe. "Newt, I told you to-" I spin on my heel. It's Cameron. "I had to stay. I've been getting threats and.. You're my sister and Bell is my friend." She says. I feel a sudden burst of anger. Maybe it's the anger I was holding in from Teressa or the fact that I'm in this stupid mess in the first place. "Go!" I shout. "Your not my sister! YOU TURNED ME IN! YOU ARE THE REASON FOR THIS! ALL OF IT! WHY COULDN'T YOU JUST MIND YOUR OWN PERFECT LIFE?! Now we're in this mess, together. Whether you like it or not. " I just can't control myself. Anger and stress just start spewing out. I finally collapse on the floor. Why? Why did this happen? I feel tears running down my face. I stand up and run into the bedroom. No, Cora. It's not her fault. It's yours. You did this. These aren't my words. My thoughts. No! It's your fault. GET OUT OF MY HEAD WICKED! GET OUT! I fall face first on the bed. I remain like this for the rest of the night.
Cora. I turn around. It's Newt. "Newt!" I rush over to him and hug him. "I never thought I would see you again." I say as I let go of him. I scream. Why are you screaming, Cora? The voice of WICKED calls in my mind. This is all you'll get from him. He will leave you and become this. I stare at his Zombie face. Purple and blue vains running everywhere. His blonde hair messy and torn. A Hunger in his eyes. A Hunger for death.
"Cora! Cora stop screaming. We have to go, now!" I wake up from my dream. "Your screaming, it lead them here to camp. WICKED isn't far away." I nod. I pack my bag and lace up my boots. "What about Bell?" I ask Cameron. "What about me?" Says Bell as she steps in. I rush over and hug her. "You sure know how to make an entrance!" I laugh. Cameron pulls our arms and ushers us out the door. We start running in the same direction the boys did. "Freeze!" A man's voice shouts. "From the Order of Director Ava Paige, Bella Laraine MacBride and Cameron Simon Dubsion are to report back to WICKED with me immediately." The dude says. I walk over to Cameron. "Forget everything I said earlier. I didn't mean any of it." I tell her, sadness filling my voice. "I know. That's why I have to go back. You and Bell run back to the groups. I'm going to work on the inside. " she whispers. "But won't they kill you?" She laughs a small bit. "I'd like to see them try." Then she steps forward. I sneak over and tell the plan to Bell while Cameron is talking to the guard. It's about time when my trap gun fires. (It's really just a large branch snapping from pressure.) Once all the workers are gone. We run for it. "You know that they are just going to keep searching, right?" I tell Bell. "They won't have to for much longer." She points to the boys and group b girls ahead. They are fighting some blobby creatures that kind of resemble Grievers. A berg is coming down over head. "Kill the creatures, get the cure."
Aiii, I'm back. So, book three coming into view. I have so many ideas for it! I'm so excited! And thank you to everyone who still reads this.
