The 5th Wave Chapter 12 Summary

  • Cassie says that Sammy's her reason for not giving up. We're back in the present now, and she's making her way out from under the car.
  • The last time she saw Sammy was when he left the refugee camp on a bus.
  • The refugee camp was about twenty miles away from Cassie's house. It was a ramshackle building that was made after the world ended.
  • There were bloodstains everywhere. And everyone walked around with guns.
  • There's also a pit where bodies were burned. Charming.
  • One of the people at the refugee camp was Crisco, a 13-year-old kid. He dug around the body pit for jewels because he was a big-time creep.
  • At this point, no one thought the Others were trying to exterminate the human race.
  • The dude in charge was Hutchfield. When they arrived at the camp, Hutchfield separated Cassie and Sammy from their dad for questioning. Cassie's pretty mad about it.
  • After everyone answered some questions, Cassie and her family were admitted to the camp.
  • Cassie's dad wasn't interested in carrying a gun. Hutchfield thought he was nuts.
