The Mistake | maze runner story

part 2 | meeting Alby

*newt guided the girl to this strange shack like building made out of wood and straw.*

There were about three or four guys in there and one of them turned and had a puzzled look on his face,

he strolled over and whispered something to newt, i dont know what he said but i felt i shouldnt ask.

he turned to me and said,

"hi im alby and im the leader here at the maze, has newt shown you around yet?"

his voice was quite deep and he spoke quite slowly.

"not really" i replied quickly

"ok good, ill give you the tour tomorrow, do u know your name yet or anything aboout yourself or where u came from?"

"all i remember is my name is maddy and thats it." i said.

"ok hi, maddy, welcome to the maze. newt could you show our new greenie around and instroduce her to some people so she can get to know everyone?"

*he said it like a question but newt took it like a command* I thought in my head.

"yea sure," 

"like i dont have anything else to do" newt mumbled quietly as he walked towards the door

*he opened the door and maddy walked and and newt followed*

"so you know you said about everyone else being caught up, what happened?" I said 

"oh yea, i completly forgot," he sprinted away towards another building*

once i cought up with him i saw a girl lying on a bed, eyes closed, lying silently. newt walked up to a guy who was sat on a woven chair that was by the girl and he knelt down and said to the guy,

"how is she?"

the guy replied "she hasnt moved since you went"

i walked up behind newt, curious, i stood by the side of the bed, 

the guy who sat by her saw me and jumped to his feet and ran towards the corner of the room, almost like he was running away from me.

i said "hi im maddy, im sorry if i shocked you, i was with newt, i just arrived here, who are you?"

he replied "newt keep her away from me. please."

i was shocked, i didnt know what id done to upset him but i felt bad.

newt looked at me and whispered " i think you should go outside for a minute whilst i talk to him"

i nodded and went outside

*ten minutes later*

i had been outside for ages and then newt came out and said "you can come back in now"

i followed him in and said " im really sorry if i scared you, i hope you are ok now"

he walked up to me, he stumbled a bit and i could also he his hand shaking.

he said "your maddy, i know you, you have been in my dreams a few times, i remember you"

really confused i said "what did i do in the dream?"

"you killed me" he said
