Newt was dead. Thomas saw him stab himself. Felt the hilt of the blade hit his chest. He saw him take his last breath, saw him fight the flare, saw him smile. All right before Brenda came with the cure. It was already too late. Newt was dead. And all Thomas had left was his letter in a necklace. \\~•~// Newt is stuck with the last person on earth he'd want to see and a girl who's been dead for 4 years. His leg feels worse than ever, his chest hurts, his heart still isn't beating. And for some god-awful reason, part of the flare is still in him. So is a knife in the heart.
