36

Newt's POV:Everything seemed like a big game. Newt was slipping down the slide trying to stop himself but it was covered in oil. So he continued going down. But then a thought came into his mind. What if down there were waiting more grievers? Or maybe another maze? Maybe they'll all go in another box and their thoughts would be erased again. Newt began to panic and again tried to stop himself from slipping down. The air had an awful smell which made him wanna throw up. But then the boy in front of him screamed without an echo anymore. The next thing Newt knew was that he was laying in a pile of bodies. There were groans and moans.

Newt stood up and stretched his body then looked around. They were in a big room full with machines and computers. In front of the gladers was built a big glass wall. Newt narrowed his eyes to see what was on the other side. He shook when he saw it. He saw them. The people who had taken their lives away. The people who have watched them all the time. The people who have killed many of them. Some men, some women, there stood there completely alive.The creators.

One of them wrote something down into his notepad. Another one raised his hand and scratched his nose. The most human thing Newt had ever seen. They were all dressed in white shirts and above them black coats.

"W-who are those people." Asked Chuck breaking the silence.

"The creators." Minho spat, "I'm gonna break their faces." He shouted furiously at them.

"What do we do now?" Asked an unknown boy.

"Maybe they've activated the grievers again.." Newt started but was interrupted by a vibrating sound. He looked around trying to see the source that made him and his heart jump when his saw that the glass was moved. Then two people came in. One of them was a woman with brown hair going to her shoulders and black eyes. Her face was blank - it didn't show any expression. The woman stopped a few steps away from the gladers and looked all of them. The next person was a big boy with a hood covering his face.

"Welcome again!" Started the woman, "After two years with lots of victims. Incredible."

"Excuse me?" Newt asked. The woman's glance stopped at him as soon as it found him.

"Everything went by our plan, mr. Newton. " She said and then got the hood off the guy's head. The boy raised his face. His eyes were red and puffy full with tears.It was Gally.

"What is he doing here?!" Shouted Minho.

"Calm down, you're in safe now." Answered the woman.

"To calm down?! Who are you to tell me to calm down?!" Again shouted Minho. Newt thought for a second that his friend will do something stupid but he was happy to join him.

"We wanna call the police, the mayor, the president! I don't care who!" Minho shouted again this time a step closer to the woman. She narrowed her eyes.

"You have no idea what are you talking about, boy. I expected more maturity in a person who escaped the maze." She spoke quietly with the most calm voice Newt had ever heard.

"Gally, what's going on?" He asked stopping Minho from a stupid answer.

The black haired boy looked at him. His eyelids started shaking and so did the chin.

"Hard times, mr. Newton, hard times. One day you'll be grateful what happened. But now, there is one more thing." The woman stepped back.

Newt looked at Gally. His face was pale and his eyes were bloodshot. His mouth was shut but it looked like the boy wanted to say something.

"Gally?" Thomas said. Newt felt how the boy tried to cover his hatred.

"They....can c-control me...I don't..." He spoke, "I...h-have to...." Every word was like a chocking cough. Suddenly his body relaxed.

Gally's face was blank. His hands got something out of his pocket. A large sharp dagger. The next thing Newt knew was that the boy threw the dagger to Thomas. Everything went too fast. Thomas shouted but then a body covered him. Chuck.

With an awful sound the knife found its home in the boy's chest. Chuck screamed and fell on the ground. Newt was shocked. Chuck's chest was already covered in blood. Newt looked at Thomas still with shocked face.

"C-chuck?" His friend whispered and kneeled next to the body. "S-someone. H-help, please." He whispered.

"T-thomas." The boy whispered.

"Don't worry, Chuck. Hold on." Cried Thomas. "Someone s-save him! Help! "

But no one moved. Newt wanted to calm his friend but there was no sense in that. He covered his mouth with hands and tried to stop the tears. Chuck was too young...way too young.

"T-thomas," the boy started, "find...m-my mother." He coughed. "Tell..her..." He couldn't say the whole sentence.

Thomas stood up shacking. He breathed heavily. Tears were streaming down his face.

"T-thomas?" Newt started but was interrupted.

Thomas ran to Gally and pushed him on the floor. He started beating him. The boy was going mental. Newt couldn't realize at first what was going on. Gally was chocking under Thomas's left hand while his friend continued beating him with his right one. Then Newt shook his head and looked at Minho. They made eye contact and ran to Thomas. They pulled the boy away from Gally. Thomas continued beating the air. He released from Newt's and Minho's grip and ran to Chuck. He hugged him like he wanted to make the boy's soul stay. But it was useless. Thomas burried his head in Chuck's shoulder and cried harder than ever.

"Everything that happens has a reason." The woman with brown hair spoke. Thomas slowly got up and looked at Teresa. Suddenly Newt's attention was attracted by the shouts outside the door from which Gally and the woman had appeared. Some men and women bursted from the door with weapons in their hands. Then Newt heard beating on the door behind him. The boy slowly head to it and opened it.

The girl's POV:She heard shouts, voices, beating. The gladers. They are here. She thought. There was a chance to get out of this room. She slowly crawled to the white door and started beating it. Her power was little because of the hunger but she continued. The girl knew that her life depends on a shucking door. But then suddenly every power left her body and she fell just next to the door.

"P-please. Someone." She whispered and then the door fell on the floor.

Newt's POV:

The boy was very confused. Why was he doing this? He ignored the shouts behind him. Newt tried opening the door but it was locked. He then kicked it and it fell on the floor. The boy slowly got into a completely white room. He looked around and saw a pile of food in one of the corners. And then...behing the door was....

"Greenie?" He whispered. She looked dead. Her hair was in her face. She was laying on the ground breathing heavily.

"M-minho! T-thomas!" Newt shouted. He felt his friends bursting in the room. As soon as they saw the girl they kneeled next to her.

"What's wrong with her?" Asked Minho.

"I-I have no bloody idea." Newt was still standing up.

Then in the room got three men and started pulling the boys out. They easily got Minho and Thomas out because the boys were on the floor. But Newt was still standing. The third man caught him by the shoulders.

"Take her!" Newt heard Minho's shout and then kicked the man where the sun doesn't shine. He took the girl. She was light. Too light to be normal.

The man ones more caught Newt but he wasn't resisting now. Because she was with him. Everything was alright. They ran out of the room. Newt saw the brown haired woman dead on the floor but continued.

"We don't have time for explaining. Just follow us and run like your life depends on that. Because it does." One of the man said. Newt looked him from head to toes. He seemed young but his face looked like it had seen too much. The man wore dirty clothes just like the others. He was holding a gun.

They got out of the big room where everything happened. Everyone ran through many corridors until Newt could see the sun. They got out and he was infatuated by the light. Newt narrowed his eyes and continued running. It was raining hard but the sun was shining brightly. Nobody stopped running until they were in front of a bus.

"Come on! Get in!" Shouted the same man. Newt got into the bus following Minho. He sat on a seat and placed the girl next to him. Her head rested on the window of the bus.

The bus was still shut off.

"Where's Thomas?" Asked Teresa.

Just then the boy got into the bus a little shocked. He sat next to Teresa. The bus went off. It was complete silence. Suddenly Newt heard murmuring.

"What?" He leaned closer to the girl so he could hear her.

"My-my name. It's Carmen." She whispered.
