I was jittery with the feeling that I was going to see people who I had come to think of as family again, after being gone for a year. I had changed so much, would they even recognize me? My hair was long and flowy now, not awkward and short as it used to be, I had matured, well, everywhere, I had spikes, and now my face was plastered with a mix of 25% makeup, 50% sweat, and 25% dirt.

"Turn here, and we'll be there in a few minutes" Isaac said. I felt the butterflies in my stomach, what would I say to them? How would explain everything to Tom? He must hate me.

''Hey,'' Ben said,''Theres nothing to worry about, Your still the same Bree, just... new and improved!''

"Thanks Ben, I really don't know what I would do without you. Probably something stupid.''

"Hey, we're almost here, smile!''

''Oh, if I must!'' I said sarcastically, before we both started to crack up.

''There it is!'' I yelled. Ben and I jogged up with some of the skitters, and the rest stayed behind.

"This is it Ben, this is what I've waited a year for,'' As we were briefed for what to say, we started to walk into the tunnels when red alarms started going off,

''Run!''' We ran into plain sight, in what looked like a cafeteria, people went screaming, while Ben tried to calm everyone down, my eyes searched the crowd for anyone I knew, then they brought everyone in from the second mass, and soldiers took their positions.

"Stop!" Ben yelled.

"Ben?'' I could see the smiles on their faces. Matt ran up to me, and gave me just about the biggest hug I had, had in a long time.

"Bree, your back! I missed you..."

"I missed you too Matt." I looked up in time to see all the soldiers having a confused look on their faces, but not lowering their guns. Tom instructed them to put them down, and when they wouldn't, people from the second mass started coming forward making a human shield. When thier weapons had been lowered and the craziness had dispersed, Tom updated me on some info I might need, like the mission for tomorrow night.

"Hey, I'm really glad your back Bree.''

"Thanks, but I need to talk to you about when you were on the ship,'' I could feel the tears coming,''I tried to tell you that I was trying, I really was, but I couldn't, and I'm so sorry. If you could ever forgive-''

''Hey, it's okay, I know you were trying. Don't worry about it.''

''Thanks Tom. Where's Captain Weaver?''

''It's Colonel Weaver now, and he's in his office.''

''Where? I've been gone for a year, and they still expect me to know everything,'' I said with a smile on my face and then chuckled.

"Down that hallway, the doors probably open, can't miss it.'' So I started the slight trek down the hallway and sure enough, there he was, in his office, door open.

"Bree! I see our best soldier is finally back, what the heck happened!"

"They took me out, harnessed me and tried to make me a superbreed, but the resistance found me, and sure enough, here I am.''

"I'm really glad your back Bree, and hey, if you're not doing anything, there's a group of people coming in from Texas, thought you might be able to welcome them to Charleston.''

''Yeah, I'd love to, see you later Colonel.''

''See you later Bree.''

So this was basically the last chapter that sorta goes along with the storyline, it's the season finale of season 2, so I'll post later!
