I couldn't open my heavy eyelids but I could feel a something soft beneath me, and a hand in mine. "How's she doin?" an unfamiliar voice asked. 

"Same as the past few days, looks asleep, still talking," A slightly familiar voice asked. I couldn't put a face to the voice however. Soon I fell back asleep, after gaining a headache trying to figure who's hand was in mine, and who's voices were being carried around me.

Alby's POV.

"How's she doin?" I asked Newt. 

"Same as the past few days, looks asleep, still talking," He replied. The girl who had come up in the box had been asleep for the past three days and she would randomly talk about things that sounded terrifying. Her body would be completely still and she would just start talking clear as day, sounded like she was having nightmares, and it felt like it our here too. Yesterday she started going on about floods and storms, and something called the flare. I was glad in that moment that I was in the glade, not where ever she was talking about, every time she spoke about it it gave me the chills. I still had no idea what to do with the girl. The med-jacks took care of her, and for some reason Newt never left her side.

Ashlyns POV. 

What felt like day, but was probably only a few hours later I woke up. I felt like I did last time, but this time I could open my eyes. I was in a dark room, I figured It was night outside and all the boys I had saw before were asleep. This room was familiar, in a very very bad way. I had to feeling that I needed to get out of there, the pit of my stomach knotted up. When I went to stand I realized that my hand was intertwined with someone else's; Newt's. I don't know why but a strange feeling came over me as an addition to the knot, it was like something was flying around the knot, like beetle blades were walking on it with there light feet. I wished it would go away. Especially the feeling that something horrible was going to happen here. I then snapped my hand out of Newt's and ran out of the room. That's when I realized that whatever was going to happen in that room, would happen with whoever was in it. Right now that was a cute little blonde boy. Cute? did I just say that? I ignored my conscious, and my slightly hot face and went to retrieve the being as quickly as possible. "Newt," I whispered as I shook his shoulder. "Newt!" I said louder, whisper yelling. I gave his shoulder one big shake and he woke up with a start. 

"Bloody-" he started before he saw who it was, "your awake." He stated, confused, but the happiness was very evident in his face, confusing me slightly before the fear took over once again, the knot in my stomach growing tighter and bigger, smashing the beetle blades inside. 

"Yeah, now come on we've gotta get outta here!" I said fast walking towards the door.

"Why?" He asked just as a loud creak echoed through the area. 

"Because I said so," I didn't want to explain that I had half of a memory about the room. I mean it wasn't even a memory anymore, just a feeling, "Come on!" I whispered yelled as I walked out. I soon heard footsteps following me and I assumed the were Newts. I couldn't have been more wrong.
