"If you say so" I knew they would. They were smart. And, from what I'd seen, fast. The night ticked on. And I became more and more worried. More and more less certain that they actually would make it. What would happen if they didn't? I didn't like to think of the answer to that question. Around 10 minutes before the walls apparently closed, the gladers gathered themselves around one of the walls. We walked over. There was a scared buzz of noise coming from the girls. A mix of
"There not going to make it" to
"Of corse they are this is Lena, Audrey and Flo we're talking about here". Time ticked on. And I was now terrified they wouldn't make it. They couldn't, not now. About 5 minutes to go one of the girls shouted.
"THERE THEY ARE!" I looked, sure enough there was Lena and Audrey running, as fast as possible around the bend. They ran into the glade, panting. Audrey clasped on the floor.
"Where's Flo?" a girl shouted. Lena looked up at me. Her eyes were filled with tears.
"We....we.....we...lost her..." Then she collapsed. What? They had LOST Flo? Suddenly there was a ground breaking noise, everyone turned, the walls were closing.
"No...." I muttered. Flo was going to be trapped in there. She was going to die. I walked closer. An inch away.
"NO...NEWT" It was Sophia.
"DONT" but it was to late. In the last second. I ran through the crack. And into the maze.
