Newt³

The white lights of the CRUEL building shone as if nothing could touch it… as if it were untouchable. But you were about to prove otherwise.

The plan was simple: Get in, find Minho, and get out alive.

You adjust the helmet of your soldier's uniform. Beside you, Newt finishes adjusting his. He moves a little closer to you, speaking in a low voice.

"Ready for this?" he asks.

Her tone is meant to be light… but you can sense the tension underneath.

"If anything goes wrong," he adds, "don't leave my side. " He pauses briefly.

—I don't plan on losing you in here. Further ahead, Thomas makes a sign.

—It's now.

They walk towards the main entrance. Royal guards pass by. Your heart beats so loudly you feel like everyone can hear it.

A guard stops in front of you.

-ID.

The air becomes heavy.

Teresa steps forward before you.

—they're coming with me
The guard nods and lets them pass.

Once inside the building... The atmosphere changes. Cold, dangerous, endless white corridors, cameras, sealed doors. Newt gets closer to you as you move forward. His arm lightly brushes against yours.

Suddenly… Thomas starts arguing with Teresa for betraying them at the beginning and… Alarms, red lights. Thomas curses.

—They discovered us!
Newt reacts instantly and takes your hand, pulling you towards a side corridor.

-Here!
