Fuse Chapter 39 Summary

How It All Goes Down

Partridge (Paper Snowflakes)

  • Partridge is running around the Dome, pretty aimlessly. He recognizes it all, but people are probably looking for him already.
  • He hears a noise behind him: it's just a moth, phew.
  • But wait, insects don't really exist in the Dome. What's a moth doing here?
  • He then sees a beetle. Partridge thinks they're tracking devices, like the spiders.
  • While running around town he sees an elementary school with paper snowflakes taped to the windows. Aw man, he promised he'd make Lyda one for Christmas.
  • A few guards walk by, but no one sees him.
  • Then there's a hand is on his shoulder.
  • It's just a boy with freckles: he introduces himself as Vinty Firth, whose father's name was on the Cygnus list.
  • Vinty tells Partridge to follow him; Partridge is cautious (for once), but Vinty says he's Cygnus, and they've been waiting for him.
  • Finally, some allies (we think).
