There was an eerie silence over the party as they returned to camp. Maybe it was seeing the Glade (sort of) or maybe it was the Hunters.
Before they left the military base site Olivia had warned them to be as quiet as possible on the way back, because Hunters are also attracted to sound. But Thomas felt someone needed to break the silence.
"I wonder why we haven't seen Hunters yet. And we didn't see any before Ian, Olivia, Isaac, and Gina showed up," Thomas wondered out loud.
"Well, you didn't see any before we came because they were tracking us. I think that we haven't seen any on the way back to camp because the Hunters are probably trying to find us at their creation site," Gina replied.
"That's what it's called," Thomas said.
"What?"
"The Creation Site," Thomas told Gina.
"Well, now that they know we're out here, it won't take long for them to find us," Minho started, "So I say we assemble the Survivors and take the fight to them," he finished.
"Good plan, but it will take a long time to get all those bows and spears," Thomas replied. "And there's no Box here to give us supplies," Thomas continued.
"And if they really can raise the dead, they'll have an army of dead people before we can lay finger on 'em," Jorge commented. Thomas knew they were almost to the camp because Frypan ran right in front of them.
"Guys, we need you. Now. The Hunters. They're at the camp," He told them.
