Oh man she didn't. From all the people who would blab to complete strangers Emme was the last person I thought capable. Jessica? Yeah she would, she wilk tell you her whole life story. The one in the maze that is more ee obviously don't remember.

We don't really answer that Newt guy's questions I just sort of nod. I don't just want to spill everything.

After a few seconds of awkward silence This Thomas clears his throat.

"Why would you have to kill Ava paige?"

Ceylon snorts at his question "like anyone would miss her when we do"

"Ceylon" I warn her, but she shrugs it of giving Newt a grin. Aha that guy somehow rubs her the wrong way.

"Not what I asked" Thomas replies crossing his arms like the guy next to him, if they looked more I like I would say they were related.

"We were rescued out of our maze by the Right arm, we ehm couldn't all stay with them so they gave us a mission. Kill Ava paige"
The girls looked at me like I was stupid to explain everything but like most times I ignore them, the more I think about it the more logical it seems to make allies.

"They mustn't have liked you very much then" Frypan says making Newt snicker but somehow one look from Thomas made them stop.

I raise my eybrow and face Newt who shrugs "Fry has a point, this is a suicide mission"

"Oh really? And saving this micko guy from her isn't?" I challenge them.

"Minho" Emme whispers to me.

"Right whatever, my point is that we are all on what you think is a suicide mission. Seems to me that working together could be in our best interest"

That caused some uproar among my group. Ceylon walked over me and dragged me with her till we are out of ear shot.

"Are you crazy, we just met these guys" Aaliya whispers and Ceylon nods.

"You can't trust them, look at them they are up to something and that blonde limping guy.." Ceylon motions her head to Newt but he doesn't see it as they are also talking amongst themselves.

"I am not saying I trust them, all I am saying is that with more people we have more of a chance to make it" I explain them and I see that they want to disagree but can't really come up any good arguments.

"Besides they are looking for Ava paige as well, so we are bound to run in them more often so why not go together. If they are bad we just throw them to the cranks when we find them"

Without waiting for more arguments I walk back over to the boys who are still busy arguing.

"We can't work with them, that girl almost killed Aris" Newt argues for probably the millionth time judging by Thomas face.

"My idea, we can handle ourselves just fine"

"Ceylon please don't be difficult" I say with a sigh rubbing my temple.

"Me difficult, grumpypants over here is difficult" she counters.

"Me? You jumped a guy knife in hand"
And that set off an fight between them. Argument after argument. I swear I'm finding it difficult to control my murderous impulse. If I just could shoot my gun in the air they would stop... And cranks would be on us in seconds.

"Stop it" I say at the same time as Thomas. He gives me an awkward smile.

"Look guys, we are almost on the same sort of mission anyway why not work together we have a better chance" Frypan says, finally speaking up again. He reminds me of Riley a bit in that regard. I wish he didn't.

That evening we were sitting in what used to be an factory of some sorts. It was clear we had reached some sort of truce but it was shaky at best, more we couldn't really discuss a sandstorm was coming our way.

It is a pretty bad one the wind was howling hard.

"So you know our names what are yours?" Frypan asks probably wanting to defuse the tention.
I smile at him for his effort, it was already a bit difficult to make Newt and Ceylon to agree with just hiding together. Hopefully.I can asks her what really is on her mind.

"Wel I'm Rhain, the little one here Emme. Thats Jessica and Aaliya. And last but not least Ceylon"

"Hi" the group response with a small wave and the guys mutter a aoft response back.
And we again fall back into an awkward silence. Well this is going nowhere.

"You mentioned a guy namend minho?" Jessica asked finally speaking after being so quiet today, she probably blames me a bit dor Riley. I know I do.

"Friend of us, he got captured by wicked, and we are going to get him back" Thomas explains.

"I don't want to be rude but he may be dead already, or worse experimented on" Jessica says soflty, she has a point but maybe she should bot have said that.

"Yeah girl we know, but we don't leave him to rot, you all might not be close friends but we are" Newt says giving her an angry look.

"We are close and will do anything to protect one another ok, I was just being a realist" she respons back to him.

"It's not a contest. Like Rhain said we stand more of a chance together"  Ceylon says and that shuts Jessica up thank heavens.

"The girl is right, we don't trust eachother but we have a common enemy for now let it be enough" Thomas says and Newt nods, he might not like it or he might not like Ceylon we all have to admit that more is better.

To make a step towards a more productive relation I offer to take the first watch.
