We've made it quite far off from where we came from. Through the endless heat, we entered a broken down city. It was a ghost town, kind of like the ones you see in Western movies, but more modern.
Suddenly, we heard engines growling.
"What is that?" I asked.
Everybody looked up at the sky, looking for the source of that sound.

"There! Its a... Berg? W.I.C.K.E.D is searching for us!" Exclaimed Thomas.

"Everybody, Hide!" Yelled Minho.

But where the bloody hell do we hide!?

"Over here!" Yelled Newt, who was crouching by a fallen piece of concrete surrounded by scraps of metal.

We all huddled together beneath it, and tried to get a glimpse of the flying Berg.
As it flew, it sent a strong force of wind, letting the sand fly all over the place.
Once the engines we were no longer able to hear the engines, we crawled out, knowing to be more aware of our surroundings.
We all stood up, and asked one another if we were alright, but Winston...
He was still laying under the concrete piece, with his stomach rotting in the place the Cranks had shredded him.

"Mel, what do we do?" Asked Frypan, who was Winstons best friend.

"Why is everyone asking me?!" I exclaimed, completely panicking.

"You were a med student before you came here!" Pointed out Teresa.

"She WAS!?" Exclaimed Newt in complete shock.

"I never knew that..." Said Minho below his breath, which made me a bit guilty of not telling anybody.

"FOCUS!" Yelled Frypan.

"Uh... Okay.. Winston, can you stand up? Or walk?" I asked.

That might of been the stupidest question...

"DOES IT LOOK LIKE I CAN!?" He exclaimed back.

"ALRIGHT! Frypan, get those sticks over there, Newt, do you still have the scarf?" I asked

"Yes" he replied, and handed it over.

I put my backpack down, and took out a long skirt I had found at the abandoned mall.

"Mel now is not the time for playing dress up" said Teresa

"Shut up!" I yelled.

I can't focus when I'm distracted...

Frypan ran back with the sticks.

"Why do we need these?"

I placed the sticks side by side, leaving a small space between to wrap the long skirt to, and big enough for winston.

"Aris! You look like a crafty person, help Thomas make a gurney" I ordered, and the two of them started to work together on the gurney.

I crawled over to Winston with the scarf, and grabbed a bottle of water with me.

"Lay down" I demanded Winston.

After he did that, I poured a bottle of water onto the wound, and onto the scarf.

"IT STINGS!" He screamed.

I wrapped the scarf around the wound, covering majority of it, flipped Winston around, and tied it together around the back.

I checked back on the gurney, which was now made, and asked Newt to help me carry Winston to it.

We laid him down, and one by one took turn lifting him up, and carrying him to our destination.

From now on, nobody gets left behind.

W.I.C.K.E.D

After walking for what seemed to be, forever, we took another break, under a fallen bridge to give us shade.
The whole time before we got here, all of us took turns carrying Winston.

Frypan was sitting beside Winston, Aris was napping, while Thomas and Teresa were examining the view, and talking.

"How's it looking?" I yelled over to them.

"Just a little more!" Thomas yelled back.

I glanced over at Newt, who was looking at Thomas and Teresa, probably wondering how far "just a little more" exactly is.

"So, princess, you were a med student?" I heard Minho, who was sitting beside me, say.

"Yeah" I answered.

"How far did you get into it?" Asked Newt.

"It was my first year there. I knew the basics" I replied.

"You saved Winston" said Frypan, walking over to us.

"No. I didn't." I said "I only stopped the wound from get an infection, but I think we all know he's infected"

Suddenly, we heard a gun shot go off.

Immediately, all of us ran to Winston, knowing he was the one carrying a gun.

He held it in his hand, pointing to his head, when Newt pulled it away from him.

"Winston! The bloody hell?" He asked in surprised.

"Who gave him ammo!?" I exclaimed.

"Who even has ammo?" Asked Minho.

"What's going on? Is anybody hurt?" Asked Thomas, rushing to the scene.

"Nobody's hurt" Replied Newt.

Winston started vomiting black fluids.

"What do we do now!?" Asked Frypan

"He's turning..." I said

"Exactly! What do we do!?"

"I don't know!? Why is everyone looking at me!?"

"Maybe because you were W.I.C.K.E.Ds lab rat for 8 months, you know more about this than any of us!" Yelled Teresa.

Quiet.

"Kill me" pleaded Winston.

We all stood in shock.

"Winston we are not going to do that" said Minho.

"Then I'll do it myself" he said.

"No you won't Winston, there's a chance of survival for you" said Thomas.

"Can't you see? There isn't. I want to die, knowing I won't hurt anybody" he said "Please let me die"

Newt took the gun (a revolver), and gave it to Winston, by putting it on his chest, and placing his hand on top of it.

"Thank you" said Winston.

Frypan grabbed his stuff, and fled the scene.

Newt followed him, and so did Teresa, and Aris.

I tried to force a smile at Winston, to show that I understood his pain and choice, but I couldn't. I cant smile while witnessing a death of a friend.

"You guys should go, I'll catch up with the belongings" said Thomas.

Minho grabbed me by the waist, and led us to the others.
"We cannot lose another glader. Im tired of losing out friends" I said, looking down at my feet, while kicking the sand.
"I know. So am I. But I promise we won't loose anymore, not on my watch. Not until—"

Boom.

We stopped as we heard the gunshot fire.

Winston had died.

And we can die at any moment now too.

HELLOOOOOO!
