chapter fifty: everything is going to change

"Gally.. what are doing?" Y/n said slowly. "No, we can't leave." he said staring deeply into Y/n's e/c eyes. "Be careful Y/n, he's been stung." Newt said while slowly making his way towards her and grabbing her hand. "Gally,we did it. We're out, we're safe. We're free.." Thomas said quietly. This made Gally laugh slightly, "You think we're free out there?" Minho gripped his spear with his right hand. "No, we'll never be free from wckd." "But Gally.. we are. Look the door is right there." Y/n said with a little more force in her voice. "You are all traitors! You worked for them, in this room! And you.. Y/n. You came in and talked to us practically everyday. EVERYDAY!" he shouted, spit flying everywhere. "Who Gally? I don't know what you me-" "Alby, Newt and I. I remember clearly the first time we all met. And God did you two despise eachother." he said, pointing at Y/n and Newt.

"I beg your pardon?" Y/n said quickly, her and Newt exchanged a confused look, and turned back to Gally. He laughed, "You argued everytime you were together. Everyday, when she left you-" he said, pointing at Newt, "-would go on a whole ass rant about how much you hated her." The entire group stood there in shock, especially Y/n and Newt. How could they have hated eachother? They were perfect for eachother. "But none of that matters now. I belong to the Maze, we all do." he then slowly raised his gun, pointing it right at Y/n's chest. Then the gun went off, it all happened so quickly. She felt a small hand push her back then she looked back at Gally, who now had a wooden spear in his chest. He gasped for air as he fell to the ground, "Y/n?.." she heard Chuck say, she looked down and saw the young boy infront of her. Then she saw blood seeping through the little boys clothes as he fell to the ground. "No.. no! Chuck.." she said as she kneeled down beside the boy along with Thomas, "Chuck, no your- you're okay!" Thomas said with tears forming in his eyes. Y/n felt tears falling down her face, she heard one last thing, "Thank you.." the boy said before falling completely limp.

"Oh my God.." Y/n said quietly, her hand flying to her mouth. "No! No Chuck c'mon! Wake up!" Thomas yelled. Newt leant down and held the girl in his arms, she couldn't take seeing that vile image. As Thomas was leaning over Chuck the doors burst open, packs of men ran in with guns and pulled the Gladers to their feet. Y/n wasn't functioning properly, she couldn't talk or barely move. "Y/n we've got to go, Love." Newt said quickly as one of the guards were pulling him to his feet. She stood up and Newt put his arm around her as they followed the soldiers. They stepped out of the door on to a sandy desert, with crippled buildings and the tops of buildings which had been covered by sand. The bright sunlight was blinding, all they could see was the faint outline of a helicopter which they made their way to. Newt helped Y/n into the helicopter then sat beside her, with his arm still around the crying girl. Thomas was pushed into the helicopter, then it took off. There was a man in there, "You're all okay! You're safe from wckd. Everything is going to change." he said showing no emotion.

Everyone looked out the window as they saw the maze from above, seeing the tiny Glade in the middle with the maze and the blades on the outsides. It honestly looked beautiful compared to the outside world around them. The helicopter zoomed through a now destroyed city, on the ground Y/n could see people with ripped clothing and black looking veins. They were all very skinny and had some bald patches across their heads, they wiggled around uncomfortably and violently. She presumed these were the Cranks, Ava had mentioned earlier in the video. The only people that had survived were Y/n, Newt, Teresa, Thomas, Minho, Frypan, Winston and another Glader called Jack. "You have a long ride ahead of you." The man said again, "You should get some rest." Y/n looked outside one last time before closing her eyes inside Newts' arms.
