Three months later

Thomas POV

It has been a difficult few months since we sent Scott, Lydia, Minho and Gally into the Maze with Stiles, there had a been a few close calls which always seems to result in Stiles getting hurt in one way or another, anything from him getting hit in the head which knocked him out for a few hours to large cut on his arm.

Me, Rafael, Peter, Derek and Sheriff have all managed to successfully get the required positions within W.I.C.K.E.D so we are ready for the final stages of the plan to be completed. I notice that The Maze team had already began working out their exit route with Stiles and Gally having laid out the final stages to take them down once and for all.

Now you may be asking how I have not been recognised yet as I was the top subject and former worker, well simple enough I never take my helmet off, we came up with a cover that I had badly injured my face so preferred to keep it hidden which seems to work for the most part.

Today was the day we had been waiting for, it was the prime opportunity to execute the plan as Janson and Ava would be busy in meetings all day. Today's the day we are going to take them down once and for all and save Stiles and myself from them.

I was not nervous or anxious as I had every faith in mine and Stiles's plan and back up plan as Stiles always reminds me that we need to have a Plan B as Plan A never works except one time when it did to save Malia's life.

"Sheriff, before we leave I need to ask you a favour please." I ask the man who has become a father to me over the past few months.

"Of course Thomas, what can I do for you?" He asks with care in his voice that I still wasn't quite use to.

"Just in case something happens to me, I want you to give this to Stiles. Also I want to say thank you for making me feel like part of your family over these last few months I know it must not have been easy looking at me everyday." I advise passing him the letter I had written the previous night.

"Thomas, you listen to me nothing is going to happen to either you or Stiles. As far as I am aware you are just as much my son as he is." He states engulfing me in a tight hug before letting me go to place the letter in his bag.

"Okay, let's go. It's time to finish Operation Newt." I say rallying everyone around before we headed out. I had a feeling when saying goodbye to Deaton, Aris, Vince, Frypan, Brenda and Jorge that I would not be seeing them again.

So far everything seemed to be going to plan, Derek and Peter had managed to arrange to be watching the monitors of the Maze with me, Rafael and Sheriff were stationed around the Maze exit area ready to assist anyway we can with getting them out with raising the alarm to much.

From my left I noticed the wall starting to shift and rattle from movement taking place behind it, as I looked to see if I could see anyone coming from where the movement was happening I heard a gun cocking behind me.

"Well will you look what we have here, Peter and Derek Hale come to rescue your friends have we?" I slowly turn around as the voice rings out and I notice Janson with a guard pointing their guns towards Peter and Derek's head.

"Now I am guessing as these two asked for you three personally to help, you are involved with these two plan to rescue there friends. So you have three seconds to reveal yourself and put down your weapons before I shoot them both." Janson states pressing the gun into their heads more.

"Okay, don't hurt them please and we will do as you ask." Sheriff states as he and Rafael place there guns in front of them before slowly taking off their helmets, I just stand there not moving but glaring through my helmet at him.

"Well look who we have here, a Sheriff and FBI agent poking their noses where they don't belong. Your turn now, otherwise the Sheriff here will not live long enough to reunite with his son." Janson spits towards me now aiming the gun at the Sheriff's head.

I slowly lift my arms towards my helmet staring directly at Janson as I take it off and let it drop to the floor with a loud clatter.

"Well will you look here, Thomas standing here in front of me as a whole person. You really are a successful experiment. Well as they say about experiments, once its complete you throw away the lab rats." He says before moving his gun in my direction.

As I see him place his finger on the trigger I close my eyes ready to accept my fate but then I hear a familiar voice scream no before I feel a heavy weight push me to the ground as the gun fires.

I open my eyes to see who has saved me after I hear them groan aloud in pain as we land on the ground and notice a beaten up Stiles lying on the ground next to me bleeding from a bullet wound to his shoulder/chest area.

"Stiles!! Why did you do that for? You stupid shank, why did you save me?" I shout at him while applying pressure to the wound.

"It was my turn for once to save you, as I figured I owed you a few." Stiles jokes while coughing, the pain evident on his face and in his voice.

I didn't pay any attention to what was happening around me, my main focus was on Stiles and keeping him alive.

I notice Scott join us as he grabs Stiles hand to take away the pain but quickly dropped it when there was no pain left to take with a concerned look on his face. Between the two of us we manage to tightly wrap the wound as much as we can to keep him from bleeding to death until we can get him out of here.

I stand up and instantly notice that Janson and the guards have disappeared and Lydia, Minho and Gally were all standing in their place next to the others watching me and Scott as we sort Stiles out.

"Okay we need to get going, the charges are primed in the Maze and hopefully they haven't found any that we had been planting over the past few months. You all get Stiles to Deaton and I will meet you there as I need to prime the final charge and set the timer." I state grabbing the bag I stashed away earlier in the day.

"No Thomas! I am coming with you. We stick to the plan no matter what, you and I both know this plan only works if we finish this the same way it all started, together!!" Stiles advises fiercely as he slowly gets to his feet with Scott supporting him and comes over to grab my arm steadying himself with a determined look on his face.
