" is she gonna be okay? " I walked over as Minho, Thomas and Newt were already standing next to the girl that was passed out again on the medical bed, I could tell Newt seemed a little frustrated with Thomas and then me the moment I stood next to Minho, " not sure " Minho spoke looking over at me as Newt motioned to her.
" do you recognize her? " he asked when I shook my head, I truly didn't recognize this girl at all. I had 0 idea to how she even knew my name or anything. Or even Thomas's name, " Thomas said the same thing.. " he stopped for a moment, "-..because she sure as hell recognized the two of you " he crossed his arms. " okay well don't get so frustrated Newt, I'm telling the truth and he most likely is as well " I crossed my arms across my chest tilting my head over to the girl.
" well what about the note that she had " I asked as Thomas looked over at Newt, " we have other things to worry about " Newt replied when Thomas stopped his thoughts for a moment, " what if the box really doesn't come back up huh? How are we supposed to live " I asked again when Thomas was about to speak again, " she's right Newt we need to figure that out now not just later " He stared at the boy as he thought for a few moments looking over at the girl.
" we'll wait till she wakes up " He implied, "-..see if she knows anything about it " he looked back when Thomas suddenly turned around and began leaving, " where are you going? " I questioned standing up straight now, " back into the maze " he said when Minho quickly placed a hand on my shoulder when I was about to chase after him, " I'll go " he said running after the boy who was already gone out the door.
I sort of slowly walked away from Newt when he got distracted and started heading out the door as I listened in to the conversation between Thomas and Minho, something about meeting him in a half an hour in the woods to go back into the maze, I've always wanted to know what it was like to go into the maze. But nobody ever let me because I was a " girl ", and clearly wasn't suit enough to run in the maze.
But I'm a hell of a fast runner and my head was feeling a whole lot better since the whole Ben accident that went on, I noticed Thomas eying up Gally before walking away. Obviously he was gonna be one of the main things that would get in the way of him getting into the maze.
I thought about it for a while when I finally decided, I'm gonna sneak into the maze with them. Then they'll have no choice but to let me go with them, I mean seriously what could go wrong in the maze. It's not like these grievers are some huge scary man eating things that just want to tear you into pieces and sting you to death.
——
I sat on a wood log when I noticed Minho walking over to the woods, that's when I knew their plan was going into action. So I quickly got up and started jogging over. I quickly stopped when I saw a few other guys with Minho as they talked to Thomas, I thought it was only gonna be the two boys but I guess I was wrong.
" let me come " I said standing behind the group of boys when they all turned around startled, " no way Mavis " Minho spoke as Thomas had his hands on his hips, " it's dangerous " Thomas reminded me as I just sighed. " yeah I know but I'd rather die in the maze then be trapped in this box for the rest of my life " I had a firm smirk before I turned around, " let's go " Thomas spoke assuming that I was going with them.
We jogged over to the open doors of the maze, i looked around at the giant walls filled with green vines as we didn't run fast we just kept a steady jog to save our energy. " come on " Minho said running a little bit faster, I stopped for a little moment to look at a few walls before I began running again catching up to Minho, I guess you could honestly tell he was surprised that I managed to catch up to him.
We quickly made a quick stop and turned to our rights when I saw the claws sticking out of a gap in the wall, " that's disgusting " a boy with his hood up spoke as we all looked at the guts and slime coming out from the bottom, it was in fact the griever that Thomas had killed earlier. I didn't think the grievers were actually this big.
" I think theirs something else in there " I pointed to the crushed creature in the gap, " you mean something besides a griever pancake? " another boy said which I chuckled a bit at, I took a few steps closer towards it as I tilted my head seeing a red blinking light. I looked over when I saw Minho walking over towards the gap, " Whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doing? " I whispered to Minho, he looked at me and didn't answer when he reached his hand into the gap.
We all watched carefully and quietly as he dug his hand around, he looked at the grievers face before looking back at us. It had felt like my heart stopped when the legs of the griever moved inwards towards itself, I jumped back as my heart raced as fast as it could. I was ready to start running as fast as I could, the moment those legs started moving, I held onto the back of Minho as he had jumped back into me and I stopped him from falling and knocking me over.
" I thought you said it was dead! " I complained to the two boys that legit told a whole story earlier about how Thomas killed this thing, " was it a reflex? " the boy with the hood up questioned, " let's hope " I mumbled to myself staring at the legs of the griever, " okay come on, let's try and pull it out " Thomas spoke walking over to the legs when we all grabbed a hold of the grievers leg, " one, two, three.. " he said when we all starting pulling at the legs, all you could hear was a bunch of grunting sounds and struggling.
We continued pulling at it as hard as we could, I gripped onto it with all my muscle strength when finally it ripped off from the grievers body, I fell backwards after loosing balance from the last and final tug, " you alright? " Minho asked holding his hand out as I nodded a little out of breath as he pulled me up to my feet. " you okay fry? " I looked back at Fry who had also fallen on the ground as both me and Thomas helped him up. " yeah, thanks man " he said.
I walked over as Minho had walked next to me over towards the red blinking thing that had fallen out of the gap now, it stunk really badly. As I held onto my nose when Minho grabbed the flesh of the griever that the blinking thing was inside of and held it up for everyone to see, he reached his hand into the inside of the flesh and pulled out some kind of thing. As a bunch of goop and slime fell down onto the ground I made a groaning sound almost wanting to Barth.
He hands had slime all over them when he purposely pretended to go touch my arm with it, " don't you dare Minho! " I backed away from him as he laughed under his breath and looked back at the strange contraption he was holding in his right hand, " what the hell even is that? " I asked placing my hands on my hips.
He admired the thing before finally speaking again, " interesting " he said with a confused look on his face, " okay can we take this back to the glade, because I don't wanna meet this guys friends. " Fry stepped back looking at everyone with his hands up in defence, " I agree, I don't wanna meet this guys friends or family either Fry " I put a little bit of a thumbs up.
" he's right it's getting late " Minho said as we all began walking away, I only just remembered now that the doors close at night. And that's when my heart felt like it was about to fly through my chest, we started running as fast as we could back towards the doors. My heart died again when I heard strange growling sounds down different hallways of the maze.
But we made it back to the glade safety.
