Chapter 6:
The chapter opens up with Ruby waking up in Cate's car. She also notices Martin, another teenager that Cate broke out by carrying him in a medical waste trunk (ew). Cate explains to her that the Children's League, an organization dedicated to "helping" children trapped in this so-called rehabilitation camps lead a better life, is responsible for her and Martin's escape from Thurmond. She also gets also tells Ruby how the country is, which is horrible. Like it's worse than the Great Depression out there.
We also find out that Martin is an Orange and that he and Ruby are one of the last ones.
Chapter 7:
Now we learn that Martin is a super super mega supreme nasty creep. And that he's a horrible person. Cate pulls into a gas station where they meet her "friend" (hint hint wink wink) Rob. Rob was supposed to have rescued two kids from his camp also but apparently he was unable to. Ruby and Martin are given book bags with clothes and toiletries but as she is walking toward the bathroom, Ruby trips.
Rob catches her in an attempt to be chivalrous causing her to accidentally see his memories and see that he shot the two kids he was supposed to save. Naturally, this scares the pants off of Ruby and instead of going with Cate and Rob, she runs away.
In the midst of her getting away, she sees another kid eating out of the garbage.
Writer's note:
Taylor's take on 8&9 will be here soon. And so will another review by me.
