[ The first few days of being here, Newt had learned that the locals (he shudders at the thought, with that thinking he was a local to the Glade) were easy to haggle with if he offered certain things, sometimes he pilfered left over food from the food prep, other times it was things he found whilst exploring some of the farther out sand paths. Either way, he'd managed to score a soundproofed belt, that he Frankenstein'd into a knife sheath similar to the one he'd worn in the Glade with duct tape and leather from a car seat. It did the job and held the knife he had definitely stolen from his food prep task. It's not like he didn't bring it to work with him... Either way, Newt was fully prepared to take out anything that attacked him or his friends. Flashlights had been a much easier find. For some reason, it was starting to feel like they were back in the Scorch all over again. ]
Be there soon.
[ It's the message Newt replies with, because they need answers. They should probably tell Minho - hell, they should invite him - but Newt's certain they're being watched if not by WCKD than someone else (let's be real, it's WCKD). Having Minho continue his day normally might not bring unwanted attention to them. So he keeps the idea of inviting Minho to himself, knowing Thomas is far too invested in the idea of getting some answers.
While Thomas busies himself with helping Majima, Newt turns his attention to their surroundings, not feeling like being the third unneeded person to crowd what seems to be a two person job. What they are doing feels like a horribly awful idea -- if Cranks are hidden away somewhere, he imagines it'd probably look a lot like this. Might as well keep look out, if Cranks or Sound Eaters or even people from here feel the need to try to sneak up on them, luckily for them, it doesn't seem like it. ]
SORRY FOR TAKING FOREVER
