NEWT POV

NEWT! The scream. Her scream. In my head. Something was off. Roxelle! Where was she? I didn't hesistate. Even though I heard cheers from the Homestead, I couldn't care less.

Then, I bumped into Minho. Minho? He was dead right? I looked up. And he was there. The usual smirk on his face. I was confused. "Minho?" "Heh. Hi Newtie." But Roxelle. "Ok Minho. Roxelle. Something happened to her, and I need to go find her. It's bloody awesome to have you back, but I have to go."

"Good that Newtie. But I might as well help."

I grinned. Help was good. "Roxelle!" I continued my search for her. Screams again. Continuous ones.

Clarice. Last time I saw her, she was with Clarice. She was the cause of everything. Minho's "death", and now Roxelle. I froze in my tracks. What did Roxelle say? The Killer. Of course.

I couldn't find her until evening arrived. Clarice carried her to me. "Newt. I'm so sorry. She was just...there. Injured. But it was too..." I shut her up before she could continue.

"Clarice. We both know this isn't true. Come on, slinthead. Cough it up. A grin played mischievously on her face. "Oh, Newt. Spare me. I didn't mean to. WICKED was controlling me. I tried. Really tried to resist, but they were too strong.

I opened my mouth to object, but no words came out. There was something messing with my head. Clarice looked straight into my eyes. "Now, Newt. This is what happens when you don't obey WICKED". And it hit me like a tsunami. Hard. It's just WICKED. I told myself.

But something was there, searching my brain for the Trigger. Trigger for what? I knew the answer straight away.

To make me kill Roxelle.

But I had to fight like she did, and I tried. But the pain was real. Everywhere. Darkness. Space. I saw an opening and I fell through, into oblivion.

WICKED. Roxelle. They were just names now. My memory was wiped. Again. It was back to 3 years ago, when I first came here. Just that now, I woke in the Maze. It was weird, being able to remember, but not remember at the same time.

I heard footsteps. Probably Runners. But it was a girl. She looked at me, and ran towards me, arms open. She threw her arms around my neck, whispering my name. Newt. You're safe. What? She just spoke to me in my head! What are you doing in my head? Get out! Her expression changed from one of relief, to hurt. Hurt? She was the one who went into my head!

"Newt? What's wrong?" She asked, caring. Who was she? Why did she care so much? "Don't you remember me? Roxelle?" "No...I don't. But nice to meet you Roxelle. Now, let's go. The sun is setting. Bloody Grievers comin' out soon."

And that, was the start of everything. All the troubles. Because of one mistake. That was me. When we arrived in the Glade, it was in chaos. Apparently, I was still the leader.

"Gladers!" I yelled. A few heads turned, but most were still focused on whatever that was happening. Gally. He was shouting at Tommy, eyes looking as if he would swallow him up.

GALLY POV (special)

It was all his fault. Him, Teresa, and that Roxelle chick. When they arrived, everything was taken away. They were the people who put us here. With the Maze to deal with. Grievers. Cowering in fear at the Glade.

The Changing brought back memories, visions. That would change our lives. Forever. This choice was everyone's. To leave or stay.

Some were neutral, like Jeff, Frypan. But most, like Minho and Chuck, they were with Thomas. Only a few stayed. But they were about to realise their mistake.

Was that good enough? I'm still not getting as much comments as last time. Is it because you don't like this story? If so, give feedback, and I will try my best to improve. And please answer the QOTC if there is one, but if you don't know the answer, it's okay. I'm revealing the answer to the last QOTC now....

And by the way, I will be going on holiday, so next update will be a few weeks later. See you then!
