===Getting Emily back===

Ted found the Cull much harder than he imagined. They weren't kidding when they said you had nothing but your wits to help you survive. Luckily, they had Ibis and he had been trained for ages to help him survive when his time came. They didn't encounter anybody at all but they occasionally heard screams from for off. It was horrible and Ted was happy he wasn't alone. Ted and Delaine grew close over the next few weeks and it became clear to them that if they both survived, they would stay together forever. Ibis knew where Rusa was, she would only stay in the best place and as people were put in the same place each year, Byron and Milah had told them all to travel west and get to the waterfall where you would find fresh water, food and caves for shelter. The three of them headed off but on the way there, they were ambushed by Lois Specter, Jaden Loner and his sister, Helena. Although they tried to reason, they were forced to fight, killing Lois and Jaden in the process. Helena ran away and they weren't badly injured except for Delaine who had a gash on her leg from Lois. At first she was fine but it soon became clear, the wound was infected. In the end, Delaine was too weak to walk, Ibis and Ted would take it in turns to carry her on their backs. Finally, the worst happened and they were attacked again by a boy called Nicholas Hyde. In the struggle, Delaine was injured again, not fatal on it's own but combined with her other injuries it was lethal and she died. Ted and Ibis had to leave her and they carried on looking for Emily. The month was nearly up and Ted was convinced Rusa had killed her until they found something they didn't expect. Rusa's body. Ted was now even more worried about Emily, if Rusa was dead what hope did Emily have. Finally they arrived at the falls and there was Emily but she was different. She had no fear in her eyes and in her hand was a sharpened rock. She muttered something about winning and proving herself when they heard a familiar sound. The Helicopters had returned. They had survived the Cull.
