A kiss is just a kiss until you find the one you love. A hug is just a hug until you find the one you're always thinking of. A dream is just a drwa until it comes true, love was just a word until I met you. -Unknown

Teresa sat in the pit with Thomas who laid uncoutious. Clint and Jeff said he should be up soon, after he pulled the stunt by stabbing himself with the Greaviers stinger Teresa was quick to react and get the surum. Ivy sat beside Newt and Chuck, Minho on the far side.

With a groan Thomas woke up looking up at Teresa, then he averted his eyes to the four outside the pit.

"What the hell was that!?" Chuck asked angrily, he was mad he almost lost one of his best friends. Thomas went into story of the things he had found out from the sting, how him and Teresa worked for W.I.C.K.E.D before all this.

"That doesn't matter." Ivy finally spoke up, everyone looker at her wantinggi know what she had to say. She had been so quite these past few days. "None of that matters anymore. We're living for right now. We're trying to live, trying to get out of here. And with the way my dumbass brother is right now. Taking claim on leader, we have no say in what happens. We need to get out." Ivy wanted to know what the world outside the walls was like, she wanted o get Chuck out of the four walls and into the world. She promised the boy, and she wanted to start a new life- again - with her boyfriend and friends.

"But Gally-" Thomas started but Newt cut him off.

"She's right. We need to get out of here and you know if Alby was here he'd say the same thing-" Newt got cut off by Ivy.

"Pick your ass up and finish what you started." Ivy's Irish accent had gotten stronger with the sentence she spoke. It had been happening more often now.

Thomas nodded. "What do we do?" He asked.

"Gally's planning a banishing tonight." Minho said, everyone nodded and talked over the plain before putting it into action.

~~~

"He's crazy!" Teresa yelled at the boys as she was being tied up. Ivy looked over her shoulder finding Chuck carrying a bunch of weapons and some backpacks that must have held some things she was oblivious to. Her hand grasped the strap of the quiver that was strapped to her back, waiting for Newt's siginal.

Newt gave Minho a nodded before looking at Ivy and doing the same. Ivy nodded and gripped her bow in her hand loading an arrow into it. Thomas jumped up for his position on the floor and threw a punch at one of the boys' faces. Everyone who was in on the plain took out their weapon and walked over to the maze doors. A hurt look crossed Gally's face as he saw Ivy in the group of people.

"We're leaving, its not safe here anymore. There is nothing left for us here anymore." Thomas said. Gally looked at who was left with him. A few builders and Slicers.

"Don't listen to him, he's just trying to scare you." Gally replied.

"No I'm not." Thomas said, "I'm scared. But I'd rather take my chances out there, then in here. You can come if you want. But nows you're only chance." He finished. Two more boys joined the huddled group of twenty eight to thirty teenagers.

Ivy gave her older brother one last look before she turned around and ran with Minho in the front of the group. The two led the group of boys and Teresa to section seven. Stopping everyone from running further Thomas turned to peak around the wall. When he looked away quickly everyone knew there was a greavier there.

"Is there a greavier?" Chuck asked just to make sure. Thomas nodded.

Before Thomas went to run Newt piped up. "Shouldn't someone give, you know, a pep talk or something?" He asked. Minho nodded.

"Be careful. Don't die." He replied with.

"Well were bloody inspired." Newt muttered. Ivy wrapped her hand in his giving it a squeeze. "You stay with Teresa and Chuck okay?" He said to her, she looked up to him and nodded.

"Kiss me first." She whispered, Newt gave her a sleepish smile before leaning down and pressing his lips to hers in a short kiss.

"Alright, LETS GO!!" Thomas yelled, all the boy roared with cheers and ran around the corner taking on Greaviers. Teresa, Chuck and Ivy made a running start to the end of the hallway only to be stopped by the slight delay of Teresa knocking the code out of Chucks hands.

Chuck ran to get it before it rolled off the side of the cliff. As he hang off the side screaming Ivy grabbed his ankles pulling him back up away from the ledge. She hurried to help him up and they ran off to the end of the hallway Teresa already there.

Numbers flashed across the red screen, Ivy knew what this was. "Minhl whats the sequence!?" Ivy yelled. Minho looked over his shoulder to see what she ment, when he saw the numbers he knew what she ment.

"Uh, five, seven, three, four, two-" he was cut off by a greavier falling on top of him. Jeff ran at it making a last minute desison to trade his life for Minho's. Minho scrambled to his feet and finished telling her the order. "Two, one, six, eight." The red screen turned green and big heavy doors fell closing, blocking the teenagers from the greaviers.

The floor gave out underneath everyone and they all fell down what felt to be like a slide. Ivy tried to put her hands on either side of the walls to stop herself but couldn't because the walls were cover in some sort of slime. "Gross!" She yelled. As soon as the ride started it stopped and Ivy landed on the ground face first someone landing on top of her with an 'oomph' Ivh winced in pain from her broke wrist.

"Sorry love." Newt groaned rolling off her and helping her up. She thanked him and everyone stood in a long line looking at the room they stood in.

Looking at the through a window was a group of people wearing all white. A door opened and Newt latched his hand onto Ivy's. Two people walked into the room over looking them, a lady with short choppy blond hair and someone behind her in all black, a hold covering there head. The person was twitching holding something behind his back.

Everything had happened so fast, the boy moved his hood to reveal himself as Gally, people gasped and tears streamed down his face. "I'm sorry." He cried before reviling a knife, he threw it at Thomas but Chuck jumped in the way.

"CHUCK!" Ivy cried running up to the boy, she held him pushing some hair out of his face. Tears streamed down her face and she could hear the sound of skin on skin contact, Gally deserved whatever he was gettng from whoever he was getting it from.

"Chuck don't close your eyes okay? Keep you're eyes on me." Ivy said crying. Chuck took in a sharp breath and Ivy knew, she knew he didn't have much time. Chuck held up a small figure he carved and Ivy shook her head.

"No, no Thomas told you you'd give it to them yourself." She said shaking her head. Chuck shook his head. A tear falling from his own eye.

"I want you to have it." He cried. Ivy nodded and took the small statue from the boys hand.

"Okay Chuck." She whispered.

"I love you Ivy, like- like my own sister." Chuck stuttered. Ivy forced a smile through her tears.

"I love you too Chuckie." She whispered pressing her lips to his forehead. He smiled lightly and looked at Thomas who joined them on the ground.

"It was worth it." Chuck said before his eyes closed and he took his last breath.

Ivy cried and heard a voice say; "Its all for a tests. You'll understand one day." Ivy didn't like that answer, she stood to her feet anger washing over her.

"For a test!? I'll understand one day!? Listen lady he was like my litter brother, and you killed him! You've killed so many other boys too! And you're telling me, that this was all for a test!? You put me and my friends through hell, what's wrong with you!?" Ivy yelled.

"Those boys who died were weak." The lady said.

"Weak!? They were weak? They were not weak. Jeff spared his life for Minho, Alby died to save all of us, George died saving me, Chuck- Chuck died saving his best friend. Those boys were not weak, they were hero's!" Ivy yelled tears streaming down her face. Newt grabbed Ivy's hand and pulled her away from the lady. He pulled her into his chest trying to comfort her.

The door slammed open and men in all black ran in shooting anyone in white. A man took off his mask and over looked the kids with a smile on his face.

"You're safe now. Its all over." He said, then a lady ushered everyone outside. They all ran outside but were greeted with nothing but bright lights and sand. The world was nothing like what they thought it'd be. Everyone shuffled onto a bright yellow bus and sat in pairs.

Newt sat beside Ivy and took his hand in hers.

"You're safe now." The lady repeated the mans words as the bus started and drive away.

Ivy looked down to the little figure in her hand and a single tear fell. Newt made her look up at him and wiped away the tear, dipping his head down and placing his lips on hers in a soft kiss.

"I love you." He whispered. Ivy smiled lightly.

"I love you too." She whispered back.
