A/N- Hi there, this is my first 5th wave fanfic. As you noticed, this fanfic is more on the movie side than book. This fanfic is rated T for swearing and violence (Not that vivid) I would also like to declare their ship name, Essie or Eviopeia

IMPORTANT: In this Fanfiction Cassie's mom and dad died in the 3rd wave. Cassie and Sammy never make it to the refugee camp.

I own nothing from The 5th Wave Book or Movie

"Come on Sams, let's find a tree before nightfall.", Cassie said. Sammy nodded his head and follows Cassie into the woods. A few minutes later they found a perfect tree to sleep in. As Sammy settled in, Cassie heard a *snap*. Almost immediately she grabs her M16 and tells Sammy to stay in the tree.

She carefully climbs down the tree with care. Raising her M16 she spins around in a circle looking for whatever caused the noise. She ventures deeper into the woods, determined to find the source.

Suddenly a hand clamps over her mouth, she struggles hard so she can to escape her captor's grip.

When she sees a Silencer quietly walk through the leaves toward Sammy. She struggles even harder, desperately. She tries to reach for her M16 which was dangling next to her. Her captor's grip tightens.

"No!", Cassie screamed, her voice muffled by the her captor's hands as she watched the Silencer shoot a bullet through Sammy's head. Her eyes widen and fill up with tears as Sammy falls to the ground, limp.

With a sudden burst of energy she breaks free of her captor's grip. She stumbles toward Sammy, grabbing her backpack which had fallen off the tree. She knows there's nothing she can do. Sams, her brother, family, friend. Was dead. Sammy's bear had also fallen down. Snatching it up, she runs. She runs like the wind. A shot rings out and a sudden pain shoots up her leg. Limping, she continues through the woods. She comes across an abandoned highway with cars and bodies littering it. She feels blood start to spread on her leg. She squeals with pain.

Starting to lose consciousness she stumbles and tries to roll under a car for protection. Two more shots ring out. Then silence.

As darkness overtakes her, she can only think of one thing.

Sams was dead because of her.
