CHAPTER 5 - THE NEW PLAN
A/N: Thanks to StarRunner1 for the review and sorry for the little break. Also this chapter is so short but I am not able to write these days. :/
"I told you," said Teresa. "What we did was going to cause some real big troubles at some point. Minho is probably going to be one of them! They are all going to be!" They told the subjects that they could leave and know Thomas, Teresa, Janson and Chancellor were about to have a discussion.
When Chancellor and Janson got into the room, Teresa stopped complaining. She could be a rebellious girl but that never meant that she would act like she didn't care. "We need to find another method," was the first thing Chancellor said. It was clear enough for Thomas.
"I will try something different," he said, ideas floating up in his mind.
Chancellor looked at Thomas intently. "Do you have anything in your mind?" she asked. They only had one and a half day left which seemed not enough for them at that moment. Thomas stopped for a second, thinking.
"Actually," he started talking, "I have been thinking about something for a while." This was a hard thing to say because he had told his new method to Teresa and she didn't like it very much. Things didn't bother Teresa unless they were cruel or hurt the subjects.
But these were the things WICKED's methods were made of.
"I am waiting." Then Thomas started telling them the idea he was thinking of for a long time.
"We made a mistake," said Siggy. "Why did we even trust them? Like, what were we expecting from an organization called WICKED? Their name was pretty obvious!"
Minho was sitting at the chair, drinking some water to feel better. He had a real bad headache. Alby was still in the infirmary. Although he was the first one to get in, he couldn't handle the serum very well. Newt was also sitting but he refused to tell a word, his face was still white.
"You know that we can just leave, right?" said a boy named Ben. "We are here to help them cure the Flare."
All the boys sighed. They all knew that this was the great goal they were trying to reach. But it also seemed pretty impossible after all those things that they saw and felt. WICKED was an organization to create another disease like the Flare, they thought.
"How are we even going to that? I hope they at least know that they can't find a cure if they poison us all. Seriously, how did you guys feel after you drink that thing?"
"If someone asks this question again, I'll make sure that he will be the next to drink the serum," answered Minho. "Clear enough?"
They all knew that Minho was a sarcastic and witty boy. He was the person that everyone would want to hang up with, but they also hated him. Minho knew what they felt, but he never cared. "Maybe we might talk to them," said Ben, trying to solve their common problem.
"Do you really think that they would listen to us?" said Siggy, it was obvious that he was mocking. "Ben, they don't care about us!"
"What if they do Siggy?" a boy asked, taking Ben's sentence serious. "Yes, Chancellor and the old man might not but the boy and the girl might really listen to us."
Minho smirked. "Trust me Winston, WICKED boy is not someone you would like to talk to. But we might try the girl. Even though if she did, what do you think would change?"
"A lot," answered Ben instead of Winston.
"Then we really might try it." Pairs of eyes turned to Newt. He was the only one who talked to Teresa personally.
"Why are you looking at me like you just fell in love with me?"
"Someone is feeling a bit cranky today."
Minho poked Newt. "You are the only one that talked to the girl. We don't even know his name." Newt looked at Minho, he didn't understand the point because he wasn't listening to their conversation. "We want to talk to her, about the pre-trials."
"Well, she seemed a bit moody but she doesn't seem as scary as the boy."
"Aren't we all?"
Newt shrugged. "She might listen to you but don't get shocked if she stabs you with a knife." Minho smirked as he got his answer.
"Great," he said. "Then let's give it a try."
