When Enjolras opened his eyes, the world was white. The last thing he could remember, was fighting at the barricade, he didn't understand where he was now. He could hardly remember what had happened; it had all happened so quickly and the panic clouded his memories, making his dreams merge with reality. He searched his memories for the last thing that had happened. The moment came back to him, his last stand by the window in the café. Standing by the window in the café, as Grantaire had fallen in front of him. He didn't know where he was, what he was doing or what had happened, but he knew that he had to keep fighting.

Ready to find out what had happened, he tried to sit up in bed but his wrists and ankles were tied down. He fought against them, using all his strength, trying to force his wrists out of the handcuffs around them. It wasn't working. Angry silent tears rolled down his face as he let all the defeat, pain and stress from the last few days wash over him at once. Take control, he told himself, as he breathed in deeply. He shifted his head to see what was next to him. On one side there was a pristine white wall, too perfect. He turned to the other side and next to him, in a bed under a bundle of sheets, lay Marius.

"Marius" he whispered, his voice came out dry, barely a whisper. He tried again "Marius", this time it sounded stronger. Marius' eyelids twitch and then his eyes opened. He looked around confused for a bit, probably the same bewilderment that Enjolras himself had felt. "Enjolras" Marius tried to say.

Enjolras smiled, "Good morning, Marius".

Marius smiled back, "Where are we?" he asked.

"I don't know" he admitted, confused and scared.

"If this is heaven then it is not what I was expecting…" Marius mumbled to himself.

"I don't think this is heaven Marius" Enjolras said, "But we need to find out where we are and what we are doing here".

"Am I dreaming?" Marius whispered to Enjolras, "Am I dead? Is this what happens when you die? Is this a punishment for the revolution" his voice grew louder as he rambled.

"Marius!" Enjolras snapped at him to get his attention.

"Sorry, just a bit confused." Marius said as he turned his head to face the other way.

"What's next to you?" Enjolras asked, curious about his new surroundings.

Marius turned back to face Enjolras, "Its Courf" he smiled.

"Is he asleep?" Enjolras questioned.

"Yes, should I wake him up?" Marius replied.

"Wake him up, but be kind and explain that we don't know what is going on"

Enjolras heard Marius softly calling Courfeyrac's name, there was no reply, until suddenly, Courf woke up and began to scream. He was screaming and yelling and fighting hysterically against the handcuffs and Marius' words were doing nothing to calm him. Enjolras didn't want whoever had done this to them to come and find out what the noise was; kidnappers weren't Enjolras' favourite type of people. He knew that they would come, sooner or later, and he wanted to talk to Courfeyrac and Grantaire before they came.

"Courfeyrac!" Enjolras shouted. The screaming stopped.

A shaky voice called out "Enjolras? Is that you?"

"Of course its me Courf" Enjolras tried to make himself sound happier and more in control than he felt, to make both Courfeyrac and himself feel safer.

Courfeyrac called back, "Where are we Enjolras?"

"I don't know Courf". Enjolras heard shuffling and mumbling from Courfeyracs directing, it was annoying not being able to see each other. For some reasons they had, for now, been saved, Enjolras hoped that if there was someone else next to Courfeyrac, that it would be Grantaire.

Immediately after this thought, Courfeyrac replied, "Grantaire is next to me but on the other side of him there is only a wall."

Enjolras was grateful that Grantaire was safe, the revolution had been better with him and so would their new adventure.

He couldn't think of anything to say to Grantaire, or the other two, what do you say to your best friends when you should all be dead?

"We survived Enjolras", Grantaire began, "Some crazy miracle happened and somehow we survived"

"I know". A comfortable silence fell over the room; nobody could grasp what was happening.

Goosebumps and electrical shivers covered Enjolras as he heard something on the other side of the wall next to him. Silent sounds of breathing and moving. A high-pitched beep echoed throughout the empty room and a door in the corner of the room slid open. Enjolras had to move his neck to see what was going on. A girl had walked into the room and the door had shut behind her. Because he was laying down, Enjolras couldn't see her properly, just some grey material here and her black boot there. She walked over to stand next to his bed and Enjolras saw her face. Her chocolate brown eyes looked at him in a familiar friendly way, and Enjolras knew that she remembered him. He stared at her wavy brown hair, her hollow cheeks and rose colour mouth, trying to trigger some memories of her.

"Eponine!" he cried, annoyed at himself for not noticing her, she did look different, cleaner, healthier, but she still had the same lonely eyes.

"Almost thought you had forgotten me there" She teased him. Enjolras heard the other boys call out Eponine's name and a familiar hum of friendly conversation began to warm the room, almost like the café.

"We don't have long before they come" Eponine explained as she took a bunch of keys out of her pocket.

She fumbled around for the right one and began to unlock the bands on Enjolras' hands, "Before who comes?" Enjolras asked her.

"I don't know who they are, but they saved us, we are the only ones from the barricade who are alive" she released a deadly bomb on information that shattered the boys. Eponine ignored the silence and unlocked the bands over Enjolras' ankles, "After I was shot I woke up in a hospital bed with around me…" she finished with Enjolras and turned to Marius, "As soon as they realised that I was awake, they moved me into a small room where only one doctor would treat me, nobody answered any of my questions. Anyway, once I was healthy again they just left me alone. I sat in the room all day, they would open a small flap to slide some food into my room, but that was the only contact I have had. Until today. A man came into my room and told me that some of my friends had been saved, he told me that I should come in here and unlock you and then somebody would come and explain everything to us. I think they want us together for when they explain everything" Eponine had unlocked all of the boys and they were exchanging hugs and fond words.

"So when are they coming?" Grantaire asked.

"They didn't tell me that" Eponine replied and almost on cue, the door slid open again.
