Paradise (Newt X Reader Book 5)

- Rough Waters and Electric Shocks -

I don't know how some people managed to sleep through the hammering rain and thunder. Even Newt managed it. I sat back against the wall next to Minho. His face was suspicious and looking in front of us at the sky. "Lighting" he said shaking a little, and a split second later in the distance a crack of white light hit the water. "Oh no" I whispered, I stood up and pulled my soaking wet hair into a ponytail. I felt twice as heavy when I moved as my jeans and shirt were ringing wet. I trampled over to Atticus who was just as wet. Minho followed me. "Did you see it?"
I asked. "The Lightning? Yeah I saw it" he replied. "Well we can avoid it right?" Minho said. "No Minho, that's exactly where we're going. We'll be OK. Just hope and pray no one gets struck." Atticus replied. "Oh great!" Minho's voice crackled and he walked off. "What's up with him?"
"Uh Minho has a history with being struck by lightning. He still has the scorch marks on his body to prove it"
"Oh, greenie I didn't know..."
"Don't worry about it he's thick skinned he'll be back in a minute when he's bored. So what's the plan?"
"I told you"
"What hope no one was electrocuted?"
"Yep!"
"What an awful plan! You are my brother right? I thought we were smart? Being genetically made and all"
"Well maybe they forgot the intelligent gene"
"On you maybe" i winked and nudged him. A gust of wind nearly blew me off of my feet. And the boat soared forward towards the Lightning Storm. "We should wake everyone up and get the to stand at the edges Atticus"
"You're right"
We rushed around tapping everyone waking them up. I got to Georgia and didn't wake her up. Atticus rolled his eyes at me and then woke her up. Shame I would've like to of seen her fried by a lightning bolt. "Ok guys. Pray no one get shocked"
I was about to find a spot by Newt when the boat shook, I slipped and my head smacked against the side of the boat. I led flat on the floor, I could smell the wet wood and feel myself become heavier as the rain slammed against my skin. My shirt had ridden up my back and I could feel the stinging. I couldn't move, my body ached from the cold and from falling over. My head pounded like it was waiting to explode. Then a familiar sensation hit me. I heard screams before I felt anything. I knew this feeling, it was the same feeling I had when Newt shot me with the stun gun in the bowling alley in crank palace. But this was worse. I knew exactly what it was. A lightning bolt.
