Newt's POV

"Ashlyn! Ashlyn come on!" I yelled to my wife. We were running around the meadows near our house in the country. 

"You're the one who needs to slow down Mr." she replied. My legs ran perfectly normal just like everyone elses. "gosh you're fast, no wonder you were a runner while we were in the maze, I'm so glad you found the way out of that place, if it weren't for your smarts we would have died when the box stopped coming up and the walls were falling." Ashlyn said before the ground opened up, just a crack, but she didn't notice. "Ashlyn," I said to her, "Ashlyn!" I said louder so she would be able to hear me over the cracking of earth. "Ashlyn!" I screamed it was like she couldn't hear me, the ground began falling in and the crack was getting bigger and bigger until it was so close to her "Ashlyn! ASHLYN!" I began to sprint to her, "ASHLYN!!!"

I woke up from the horrible dream covered in sweat and with a few med-jacks looking oddly releaved. 

"What was that?" Clint asked me, looking utterly confused. 

"I don't bloody know!" I told the boy ready to smack his head. "Go away ya slinthead i'm tired," I told him before going back into sleep, but this time it was dreamless but I was grateful.

"Hey Clint, how come I don't ever see you go into Ashlyns' room anymore?" I asked the boy after noticing that no one had been in there in a few days. He looked sad, dropping his head down. 

"She told us not to bring her anything anymore," he replied, unhappy with the response he had to give. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. What did he mean? It was there job to make sure it was healthy and she would die...she would die. That's when it hit me, what she was trying to do. 

"Bloody- What the shuck you shuck face!" I tried to contain myself, but then I realized she probably wouldn't like it if she heard me talking to her. "Clint, what are you thinking?" I asked the boy.

"If that's what she wants then I can't stop her, that's what she wants," he answered and on some level I knew if that's what she really wanted then she wouldn't eat even if they brang her food. I tried to contain myself but one sob managed to escape. 

"I don't know how long this is happening but don't let her follow in my footsteps, and if she's already begun don't let her succeed,"
