Amanda's P.O.V.
When I get my hands on her I'm going to murder her. How dare she do something like this? I know she hates me, but that's low even for her. That's all I think as I locate Brenda's hideout. I teleport myself to the location. I look around to see that I'm in a warehouse. All of a sudden a smell hits me like a brick to the face. I instantly know it's cranks. Luckily for me their asleep so they won't make any noise. I turn myself into a black cat and run towards a lighted door. Being a cat my senses are heightened so I try to listen for any sign that they're here or at the very least alive. I hear something that sounds like Minho yelling at Thomas and Thomas yelling back at him. I roll my cat eyes at the two of them. Even in the worst situations those two can still bicker with each other. I run toward the sound of Minho's voice until I'm in a room with a large hole in the center and multiple layers.
"I thought you said they were ghosts." I hear Newt's voice from a different level. I walk to the center and look down the hole. Newt, Minho, Thomas, Teresa, Frypan, Winston, Chris, Taylor, and Alex were dangling upside down.
"I happen to believe in ghosts." I hear a strangely familiar voice. Jorge. He's the guardian of Brenda. Everything he does benefits only himself. He goes on to ask about the Right Arm. I hear him leave and the door slams shut.
"How are we going to get out of this one?" Frypan asks.
"If Amanda was here she could help us." Minho says. I decide to pull a little joke on them. I turn back into my human self and float down to Newt. He still doesn't know I'm there. I turn upside down and appear right in front of him.
"What's up losers?" I say. Newt just freaks out.
"Bloody hell!" He screams. I can't help but laugh at him. I turn myself right side up and float over to the edge and land on it.
"Where the hell have you been?" Thomas asks.
"Long story but you guys aren't really in the position to hear it." I say.
"Are you going to help us or not?" Minho says. I roll my eyes and look around. "What are you looking for?" Minho asks getting impatient.
"Something. Now be quiet or we'll get caught." I say as I find a single bottle of water.
"What good will that do?" Teresa asks.
"Wow you guys have a lot of questions." I open the bottle and concentrate. The water flows out of the bottle and float under the guys. It spreads to form a huge waterbed.
"Ok now what?" Winston asks. I just smile. I cut the ropes and they all fall into the waterbed.
"A little more of a bloody warning would be nice." Newt says as they climb up to the level I was on. I laugh at how they react to almost everything.
"Well you're welcome." I say. Newt gives me a look then smiles.
"We're glad you got here when you did. What were you doing here in the first place?" Chris says.
"Oh, I came here to murder Brenda." I say. The guys all back away from. "What? Why are you all looking at me like I just grew two heads?"
"Don't freak out but your hair is on fire." Minho says.
"Yeah that happens when…" I get cut off by water being squirted in my face. I open my eyes to see Newt with a water bottle.
"What that's happened before?" Newt says.
"Yes it happens when I get insanely pissed off." I say. I turn into a cat and shake the water off of me. After I'm dry, I decide to remain a cat for a little while.
"Aw. How cute." Minho says as he starts to pet me. I growl and bite his hand. "Owowowowow. What the hell was that for?" He looks at his hand. I turn back into human and glare at him.
"Never. Do. That. Again." I say.
"Not fond of being touched, are you?" Newt asks me.
"No. No I am not." I say. They all start to laugh. "Come on. Let's get out of here." I grab a small pouch from my pack and throw it all over us.
"Great. Pixie dust." Minho says. Next thing we know, we're at the Right Arm camp.
"Where are we?" Thomas asks.
"The Right Arm camp. We'll be safe here. For the while at least."
"Andy!" Aris says as Sonya, Harriet, and himself run over to us.
"Thank God you're alive." Sonya says.
"Honey, it's me. Think about it for a quick second." I say. Aris, Harriet, Sonya and myself burst out laughing.
"Well at least there was no silver around." Harriet says. She looks over my shoulder at the guys and Teresa. "Who are they?"
"Immunes. I got them out of WICKED." I say.
"Nice job." Sonya says.
"Guys this is Aris, Harriet and my twin sister Sonya. Others this is Thomas, Minho, Frypan, Newt, Teresa and Winston. You must remember Chris, Taylor, and Alex." I introduce them to each other.
"Wait Newt as in…" Sonya says but I silence her with a death glare. "Never mind. By the way Mary is looking for you." I go over toward the medic tent and the guys follow me. When I get to the tent I turn around.
"Stay here." I say.
"Woof." Minho says only to be hit in the head by both Thomas and Newt. I roll my eyes and walk into the tent. "Hey Mary."
"Amanda. Good to see you." Mary says as she looks away from whatever it was she was mixing.
"I got it." I say as I pull a piece of paper out of my pocket.
"You are truly amazing." Mary says. She takes to paper back over to the table and started mixing some ingredients together. "Hopefully this will work."
"Yeah." I say spacing out.
"What's wrong. You're not yourself." Mary says.
"Well there this guy…" Mary cuts me off.
"Enough said. I can tell he's something special if he can make even you space out like that." Mary says smiling.
"Yeah he is, but there is no way we can be together." I say looking at the ground.
"Why not?" Mary say as she removes her gloves.
"Because he's a subject." I say.
"Amanda, listen to me. Even if he is a subject, that should be what keeps the two of you apart. If you love him tell him." Mary says.
"Well I kinda already did. He hasn't responded." I say.
"Well considering what has happened in the past few hours I'd say he hasn't had the chance to give you his response." Mary says. "Let him tell you."
"Ok ok. I get your point." I laugh.
"Get out and go get some food. You look starving." Mary says practically pushing me out of the tent. I laugh as I walk over to the food tent. I walk and see Aris, Sonya, and Harriet with the guys and Teresa.
"Hey sunshine." Minho says as I sit down next to Newt.
"Call me that again, I will hurt you in ways you can't even imagine." I say as Taylor gives me and apple.
"Yikes, relax sparky." Minho says. I roll my eyes at him.
"Minho and Newt were telling us about what happened in their maze. It's the exact same thing." Sonya says.
"Yeah WICKED is doing the exact same test on every immune they can get their hands on." I say as I through my apple core into the trash. Suddenly there is a ton of screaming and an explosion from outside the tent.
"What the hell is going on out there?" Thomas asks. I can hear helicopters overhead and I know exactly what it means.
"They found us…" I say. The day I was dreading had come.
Newt's P.O.V. (Once they get to the camp)
"Woof." Minho says. I give Thomas a look and he knew what to do. We both smacked Minho in the head. I can see Amanda roll her beautiful blue eyes and disappear into the tent.
"Come on guys we have fresh clothes and stuff for you guys." Aris says. He leads us away from the tent and hands us the clothes. We all step into separate changing rooms. After a while we all had fresh clothes and a few other things.
"Let's go get some food." Aris says. He leads us to a tent and we all got some food.
"So you're the Newt my sister has talked about." Sonya says as she sits across from me.
"I guess." I say a little bit flattered that she talks about me but then I remember the last part of the note. 'I love you.' She said it. She said to me what I wanted the courage to say to her. I smile at the fact that I still can. At the fact that she's still alive.
"Why are you so happy?" Minho says.
"No reason." I say. Minho looks over me.
"Hey sunshine." He says and I can tell he was talking to Amanda.
"Call me that again, I will hurt you in ways you can't even imagine" She says. I can't help but smile at how she can defuse Minho's smart-ass attitude without even trying.
"Yikes, relax sparky." Minho says throwing his hands up in surrender.
"Minho and Newt were telling us about what happened in their maze. It's the exact same thing." Sonya says.
"Yeah WICKED is doing the exact same test on every immune they can get their hands on." Amanda says throwing an apple core into a trash can. Thomas was about to say something when an explosion and screams were heard from outside the tent.
"What the hell is going on out there?" Thomas asked what we were all thinking.
"They found us…" Amanda says.
"How did they find us." Thomas asked. We all look at each other with confused looks. Suddenly Amanda's eyes went wide and her hand flew up to the back of her neck.
"The chip!" She says angrily.
"We forgot to take out the chips." Alex says.
"What chips?" Minho asks.
"When you become a spy WICKED puts these locater chip under your skin so that way when a spy goes missing, WICKED can track, locate, and retrieve." Taylor says.
"That's a little excessive." Minho says.
"Ok you guys stay here. You'll be safe. Chris, Taylor, Alex you guys make sure they stay here." Amanda says. She turns around and was about to walk out of the tent
"What?! No way! We're going to help you." I say
"That isn't happening. You guys could be killed." She says. "I can't risk it so I'm going to make sure you listen." She pulls out her book and says something in a different language.
"Like that's going to stop us." Minho says and tries to walk but he doesn't move.
"What the bloody hell?" I say. We all try moving but we can't.
"Like I said. I'm not taking that risk." Amanda says. She turns around and walks out into the chaos.
Amanda's P.O.V.
This is my fault. They might die because of me. Everything is going up in smoke. I walk out of the tent to see helicopters flying overhead. I pull out a small pouch of dust and I throw it all over the food tent and it turns invisible. I turn to see the medic tent on fire.
"Mary!" I scream. I run full speed toward the tent. The flames make me jump back.
"Amanda!" I hear Sonya scream. I turn around and somehow WICKED was able to turn the tent visible and break the holding spell. WICKED soldiers are dragging everyone away.
"Amanda. Over here." I hear a familiar voice. Brenda. I run over to where her and Jorge are.
"Why are you here?" I ask with venom in my voice.
"Well first cut the attitude and second we came to help." Brenda says.
"Why?" I ask her utterly confused.
"I realized how important they are to you and how important you are to them. It's special. You and Newt are meant to be together. I'm sorry I got in the way." Brenda says bowing her head.
"Let's save them." I say offering my hand. She takes it.
"How are we going to save them?" Jorge asks. I take a deep breath. I know exactly what I have to do in order to guarantee their safety.
"I have an idea but it will result with my death." I say. They share a look and they know they can't talk me out of it. Here goes nothing.
