Newt stepped into the room in which was securely locked before his insertion of the WICKED personell keycard, looking

around and immediately spotting the girl,out of all the others laying on the bunks.

This was her: it was Lizzy. He could tell by her hair, the natural strands of auburn and brown scattered across her soft pillow. 

He knew.

It was her.

Harriet stood in the corner of the room, inches from Lizzy's body resting peacefully on the left bunk.

She nodded, moments later shaking the girl awake. Lizzy opened her eyes, turning her head to look at the Harriet.

"Huh? What's going on--"

Her head turned, laying eyes on his.

Saying nothing, she pushed her blankets aside messily and nearly sprinted across the room, almost violently throwing her arms around the boy.

He did the same, the two siblings sobbing against the opposite's shoulder.

After a long time of hugging and sobbing, he finally spoke: "For God's sake, they took away our parents, Lizzy. They threw us in jail cells for more than 10 years, when I was the most protective over you." Tears streamed down his pale face. "How could this happen to us?"

She held a finger to her mouth, shushing him. "Shh,"  "Trust me, brother. In the end, it'll all be okay. WICKED will find a cure, you won't be in danger, and this life of quarantine'll be over. How does that sound?" Despite her sad, miserable face, she smiled a soothing, everything-is-going-to-be-okay smile that only made him feel worse. He hugged her tighter than ever before.

"I love you so much Lizzy," he said. "I love you so much."
