Thomas pov

I drop the letter and take a few steps back. How? I feel light headed and grab the table for balance. I feel Brenda grab my shoulder and help me stay on my feet.

"What is it Thomas?" She asks. "We have to go...now." I see her face turn a very pale shade of white. "Why? Does thos have something to do with Frypan?" She asks scrambiling for words. I don't want to worry her. "Its....I just..." I see her eyes move in the direction of the note.

"Is it this?" She begins to reach for the note. "Brenda wait!" I yell grabbing the note from her hands. "What the hell Thomas?" She yells. "Pack your things we have to go! NOW!" I yell pulling her back to our tent to fetch our things.

"Not until you tell me why!" She yells. "Oh darling...you should have listened to Thomas". Before I can even see the source of the voice I know who it is and feel sick. Minho. Before I have time to react he hits Brenda and pulls a knife on her; he puts it up to her throat. "Minho don't!" I scream. "Then you will help WICKED!" He screams. I can't help but feel sick either brenda dies or I have to suffer through WICKED again....the real question is not which one will I choose, but rather which one can I live through.
