The Scar is the title of a Pre-order exclusive chapter of The Fall of Five. It is narrated by Number Six shortly after she is punched in the head by Five's metal fist and then healed by Marina.
Number Six, Nine, Eight and Marina have travelled to the Everglades in order to find Five's chest, they come across a three headed alligator and battle it. Before being struck by Five, Six remembers striking the beast with lightning, Five blowing into his obsidian flute and Nine and Five bickering. As she slowly awakens from unconsciousness, after her skull is fractured by Five's punch, she feels Marina healing her but she is immobilised by the pain. She remembers renting the fan propelled boat, travelling though the everglades and battling with the three headed alligator but is unable to recall how she was taken down.
While gathering her strength, Six attempts to work out what is happening around her, she hears fighting and shouting but she is unsure who is involved. She opens her eyes to see Eight pleading for calm and Nine badly injured.
Six finally manages to stand and sees a shape moving in the sky, hears more shouting and then is knocked back down as a scar sears itself into her ankle.
This short story is definitely the best among all the journals and the lost files bonus because aside from the fact that it was written on Six's point of view, it gave us some spoiler on what might happen (in the case that if you still haven't read the rest of the series). Well, I and every follower of this book series are hoping that spoiler that there could be another garde who died is not true. Or maybe there could be a chance that it will reverse.
Me encanta leer sobre Seis, siempre lo hice en esta serie, pero leer esta escena nuevamente me hizo llorar una vez más. Todavía no puedo creer que sucedió.
Indispensable leerlo DESPUÉS de "La Caída de Cinco". De lo contrario, perecerás severos SPOILERS. Una breve historia contada desde el punto de vista de Seis =)
Wow, I am disappointed. What was this? So less! Even for enovella standards... It's just describing pain felt by Six bcs of some bruises and then of Scar. In fact the pain from Scar is just mentioned. And what about later, her feelings? Her thoughts? She didn't even think bit about Sam (damn, I was hoping something)... Ah well one star bcs well, me biased, it's SIX guys ❤
Este capítulo exclusivo del pre-order de La caída de Cinco es el final de la historia contado desde la perspectiva de Seis. ¿Me ha gustado? Sí, porque el personaje de Seis/Maren me gusta. ¿Es necesario? La verdad es que no. También dudo mucho que sea lo más conveniente como pre-order. Los lectores que lo adquirieron lo leerían antes de la novela y... destripa por completo el final.
I'm not sure what I was expecting when I picked up this book, maybe a scientific exposé on how the loric spell worked so that the gardes got scars whenever one of them dies.... nothing that lucky. This is just a retail of one of the most traumatic part of the book from Six's point of view. And it's even worse this way because she can't see or do anything.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Nunca es suficiente cuando hay que leer las partes tristes.
Me gusta poder leer desde la perspectiva de Seis y su angustia para poder ayudar a sus amigos, pero es peor cuando se da cuenta que nuevamente llegó tarde.
Me dió penita otra vez, pero por el título hubiera esperado más descripción sobre el dolor que le dió a tener una nueva cicatriz.
I like Six, always have but this short story was not it for me. The writing felt a little off, like it was written by someone who recently got into writing, or by someone who's used to writing fanfictions and not the good kind. Thankfully it's short so I cannot complain much.
It's okay, just a confused Six trying to figure out what was going on around her during that showdown with Five. So very choppy but good insight on Six's pov during that fight.
