The dinner was, as you might expect, not great, but Thomas thought it was pretty good for a few teenagers in the middle of the forest. Apparently everybody thought the same, because there was little talking. Finally one of the Immunes that Thomas, Minho, Brenda, Jorge, and Teresa had rescued from WICKED broke the silence. Thomas had learned his name was Evan.
"Do you guys think we're alone? 'Cause based in our luck, I'd say we are almost the opposite of safe," He said.
"Good that," agreed Minho.
"To be honest, I think we're alone. Why would someone trying to help us teleport us to other potentially dangerous people? It just dosen't make any sense to me," Thomas commented.
"I feel the need to change the subject, so I will. Back in the Glade you guys," Brenda said nodding toward Thomas and Minho, "Were the Gladers. What are we now?"
"I dunno, the Survivors?" A random Immune suggested. Thomas felt bad for not knowing his name.
"As good a name as any, I guess," Minho said to the Immune.
"Hey, Thomas, could you,
Brenda and Jorge come with me tommorow? I think I might've found something in the Woods," Minho asked, taking the subject to a completely different topic.
