"So its true, your pregnant. Again?" Charlie questioned. Nora glanced at her.

"I wasn't sure I was just guessing but you ordering me to not tell Miles, confirms my suspicions"

Again. The words rang in Noras ears. Charlie must have put two and two together. She had told her she had dated Miles in the past, when he was head of the Monroe Militia. She had told Charlie she joined the rebels for a little baby boy she had lost. What she hadn't told her was that the baby was Miles. When she had gotten pregnant Miles had stood by her, he had left for business when she was around five months along. It had happened five years ago almost to the day. Something horrible happened. This time had to be different. She told herself it would be the moment she saw the two pink lines.

Charlie leaving the bathroom pulled her out of her thoughts.

"He needs to know, your putting yourself in danger everyday" Charlie argued as she reached the warehouse door. Nora quickly followed

"Charlie, please don't. " she pleaded grabbing her arm.

"Nora…" Charlie continued.

"Ill tell him today I promise" Nora stated releasing her arm, as she did Charlie took off. She looked down scoffing, she was still in her nightie.


Meanwhile outside with the troops Miles was going over a battle plan. He saw Nora and Charlie exit the warehouse. Both looked disheveled. They were arguing about something. Nora had her hand on Charlie's arm, as she released it Charlie turned towards him, Nora was going back in to change he assumed.

"What was that?" he questioned as Charlie approached, she glanced back to the warehouse at Noras returning form, before replying.

"Nothing, so whats our next move" she avoided his question turning to the map. Neville was showing her where the militia was stationed a little over a mile away. Miles glanced at Nora; she was just outside the warehouse. He left the troops and turned to walk towards her prepared to ask her the same question. When her eyes got huge and she pointed in the air behind him.

"Watch Out!" she screamed before everything went black.


Everything was ringing. He could hear screams. His vision was cloudy.

"Miles, Miles" he blinked again. Charlie was standing over him, looking mostly unscathed.

he helped him up obviously in better shape than he was now. he looked around buildings were down, debris everywhere, bodies everywhere. The Militia had fired a missile at them.

"Nora!" he yelled. He had forgotten about his own pain as he made my way towards her.


Charlies eyes grew wide at what her uncle had just said. Nora. She followed his gaze to where the walls of the warehouse had collapsed.

"NORA!" she yelled running after him. As she got closer Miles was already pulling slabs of concrete off the pile. She could hear muffled coughs from under the pile.

As they pulled the last slab off, she saw her. Miles grabbed her head in his hands. She was out of it, her head rolling in his hands.

"Nora, Nora!" he rubbed his fingers over her. Making sure she was alright.

"Miles we need to get her to the infirmary" Charlie stated, with a sense of urgency in her voice Miles didn't quite understand yet.

"bab-" Nora mumbled groggily as she opened her eyes.

"Yeah I'm right here, I got you" Miles started pulling her into his arms.

"Miles I-" she started passing in and out of consciousness,

"Im pregnant" she got out before falling limp in his arms.
