The group of five continued making their way towards the tunnels, everyone sat down beside some large planters. Y/n looked horrible, her face was dark with veins and she was covered in sweat and cuts. "Leave me.." she said quietly, no one answered her. "I'm slowing you down, you can all survive if you just leave me!" she said louder. "Y/n I don't know if you're having a laugh but if you think we're gonna leave you here to die then you are very much mistaken." Newt said looking into her eyes. "I'm not gonna make it anyway.. we're too far away." she said starting to cough.

Y/n felt something odd in her mouth, she continued coughing and then a black liquid started dripping out of her mouth. It was just like Winston when he was infected. "Shit.." Thomas said quietly. Y/n was zoned out, "Hey! Y/n!" Newt shouted holding the sides of her head. She came back and looked him in the eyes, "You're gonna be okay.. I promised you, you're gonna be okay do you hear me?" She didn't reply, just looked into the boys' brown eyes. "Minho, Gally, you go get the serum. We will make our way to you and meet you halfway." Thomas said quickly. "Right.." Minho said, "Y/n you hang in there okay?" he continued.

She nodded slightly with a small smile, Gally and Minho stood up and ran towards the tunnels. Y/n continued to have this black liquid which she presumed was blood coming out of her mouth in small amounts. It tasted horrible, she couldn't concentrate hearing all the shouting, the bangs, Newt and Thomas talking to eachother, it was just too difficult. She kept zoning out as Newt and Thomas were making a plan, she knew she wasn't gonna make it. It was too late, she was gonna turn into a Crank or die. She had accepted that, it was difficult to accept but she had to. She was out of breath, she was tired, she didn't even feel like moving.

"Y/n, you've got to get up." Newt said turning towards the girl. "No.. no Newt listen.." He interrupted her, "No, c'mon-" "Listen!" she shouted, the two boys looked worriedly at eachother. She unzipped her uniform to reveal a necklace, she pulled on it and grabbed it in her hand. "You have to take this Newt.." he resisted, "No-" "Just take it!" she exclaimed, even louder than before. She could feel the black substance dripping down her neck and soaking into her white vest, "Please.. just take it." she said quietly. There were tears in Newts' eyes, "Right okay.. look," he said holding up the necklace and putting it in his pocket, "I've got it. But we have to go okay, we have to get you to Minho and Gally."

"Give us all you've got okay?" Thomas said, looking at the sick girl. She nodded and tried to slow her breathing but it was no use. The boys made their way through a cracked door, bombs and fire everywhere. There was shouting all around them, the girl couldn't walk anymore. The two boys were dragging her, her (hair colour) hair flying all over her face. They set the girl down gently, she was completely zoned out she couldn't hear a thing. "Y/n? C'mon I know you can hear me love!" Newt said loudly. "You've gotta get up, we can get the se-"

They were interrupted, "Thomas.." it was Teresa, over the loudspeakers. "Thomas I know you don't trust me. But I need you to come back." she said. The two boys looked at the girl once more and stood up. "There's a reason why Brenda isn't sick anymore.." The pair looked at eachother in confusion, "It's because you cured her Thomas." The boys were taken aback, "You can save Newt, and Y/n. If you come back, you can save them both and more people Thomas." she continued, "You can save the world, if you come ba-" Then it went silent.

The boys looked at eachother and then turned around to see the girl on her feet. Her back was facing them and she was looking down. "Y/n? Are you okay love?" Newt said slowly walking forward. "Y/n.." Thomas said walking forward, the girl turned her head. Her eyes were black and filled with tears, the black blood continued to come out of her mouth. "Shit.." Newt said quietly. This was not Y/n, she was a Crank.
