"The Gladers Second Escape"

You look around at your dire situation, scared incase you make any sudden movements that causes Thomas to pull the trigger. Janson looks pretty annoyed, probably because you're being held at gunpoint, again, but also a little smug. You don't blame him. He has Thomas and Newt cornered.Janson takes teeny tiny steps closer, clearly, and successfully, trying to put Thomas on edge. Newt tenses up beside you and Thomas tightens his grip ever so slightly on his gun. You feel the cold metal pressing against your temple, making you feel uneasy.

"You're not going to shoot her, Thomas." Janson says confidently, sneering. You can hear Thomas's breathing right next to your ear. His breaths are unsteady. He's obviously scared, of what though, you're not sure of."Oh yeah?" Thomas says loudly, trying to sound tough. You can hear the break in his voice though, and so does Janson."I've known you longer than you can remember, Thomas. You won't shoot her." Janson puts emphasis on the 'won't' in a very threatening way.Thomas inhahes a deep breath and doesn't respond. The WICKED gaurds start moving in slowly. You remember what Janson said to Teresa, about killing Thomas. You know that if Thomas and Newt are caught, there's no doubt Janson will keep his word.You look to your left and realise there's an emergency door button. It's risky, and you have no idea how Janson will react, given his volatile behaviour.

"Shoot her, Thomas, and you'll regret ever being born. I won't kill you, of course, not straight away atleast. I'll just make it extremely, extremely painful and unpleasant for you." Janson says coldly, stepping closer still, aiming his gun at Thomas.You don't waste any more time questioning it. You kick Thomas in the knees, causing him to grunt in pain and let go off you. Newt, or Janson don't have any time to react before you spin around, punching Thomas in the nose and shoving him and Newt forcefully through the emergency door.You slam the button, and the glass door closes quickly. "Clear!" Janson shouts, and starts shooting at the glass. You duck quickly, and cover your face as Jansons men shoot, to no avail, at the thick glass door. Janson runs to the door once the gunfire dies down and bangs angrily on the glass. You stand up, and see Thomas and Newt run off.

Janson turns to you, "What the fuck, Y/n!?" He shouts angrily. "I'm sorry, but he had a gun to my head! Besides, he's trapped now." You say defensively. Janson glares at you for a moment, then looks at his men. "What the hell are you all just standing there for?! Go find them!" He snaps. The gaurds take the cue and all rush off. "Care to explain what just happened?" Janson asks, a little bit more calm now. "The Gladers kidnapped me. They forced me to let them into the building to get Minho. Gally is somewhere in the building aswell." You say quickly. Janson cusses loudly and briefly puts his hand on your shoulder before running off.

You set off down the corridors at a jogging pace. You rush up the stairs heading for the higher floors. You need to find Teresa. Gaurds run past you, all armed. They're looking for the Gladers, you only hope that Thomas and Newt can get out in time. And Gally, of course. You find Teresa in one of the labs. The scientists around her seem oblivious to the fact that there's been a break in. You rush over to Teresa. She looks up at you as you approach and seemingly senses your urgency, as she puts the beaker she's holding down. "Thomas, Newt, Gally. They're all here, Teresa. Inside the building." you say quickly. "Gally!?" Teresa yells in surprise, gaining dirty glares from the other scientists in the room. She lowers her voice, "Gally's alive...?"You nod, "Yes, he's alive. Don't ask me how. Just...listen. Thomas came to me, him and the other Gladers. They want to stop WICKED. They made me help them shut off all security systems and-" You're cut off by the sound of a blaring alarm, obviously to signify the break in. Teresa looks startled but also hurt."Thomas came to...you?" She asks slowly. The other scientists in the room all look around in surprise as the alarm continues to ring throughout the building."He didn't come to you because he still loves you. He didn't want to hurt you." You say slowly, raising your voice slightly to he heard over the loud noise.

Teresa starts to leave the room, but you grab her arm a little too roughly then you meant to. She looks over her shoulder at you. "Y/N, let go. I need to find Thomas." She protests, trying to yank her arm free. You shake your head in disbelief. "No, Teresa. Janson has all his men after Thomas, you can't help him, even if you manage to find him. You know that. Stay here." You say firmly, annoyed by her impulsive behaviour.She looks as if she's about to protest again but eventually takes a deep breath and nods. You let go of her arm and nod back at her. The alarm is starting to annoy you now, so it's good timing that it stops. But the emergency lights still flash a bright red. You run back out of the room, leaving Teresa behind. You push past scientists who are running about in a panic and head straight to the testing labs to find Minho. You reach the lab he's supposed to be having his tests in, but he's gone. The gaurds and scientists in the room are gone aswell, except a man knocked out on the floor. You sigh in defeat and run off to the dorms. You know Gally is going to try and get the teenagers free, so you can only hope to get there first. You arrive, but, it's the same situation. You cuss loudly and shake your head in annoyance. WICKEDs had their asses handed to them by a group of teenagers. You can't help but smile at the completely messed up situation.

You leave the area. You walk through the busy corridors carefully. It seems Janson has every man on the job, actually, he probably does. "For fuck sake! They managed to get away because of you incompetent little shits!" You hear Janson shouting from the end of the corridor. Speak of the devil. You reach the Janson and he's shouting at a group of gaurds, who all look shit scared. He sends them off to find the Gladers and turns to face you. "Y/N." He says aggressively."What happened?" You ask, genuinely curious on Thomas's second great escape. Janson grits his teeth and shakes his head. "They jumped out off a good damm window! Landed in the water." He snaps, turning to walk away. Something catches your eye, however. Jansons sleeve is ever so slightly rolled up. "Janson. What's that on your arm...?" You ask quietly, scared of the answer. Janson stops walking and turns around. He looks down at his arm and quickly pulls his sleeve down. "It's nothing." He says firmly. You reach out to touch his arm, but he quickly pulls his arm back. "I said it's nothing, Y/N!" He shouts, glaring at you.

You know what you saw, but you can't be certain. "Janson...please." You say almost in a whisper. He shake his head slowly and gently pulls his sleeve up. You almost gasp. "I'm sorry. I didn't want you to worry." He mutters quietly. He's much calmer now.
