Newt's pov
We find Alby and Minho separately. Alby is in the kitchen area so we get him first, telling him to go with Chuck to the map room while Y/n and I find Minho. He's over in the med-hut with one of his runners. Apparently the runner slipped on some griever slime and hit his head on a wall. I laugh quietly when Minho tells us the story on our way to the map room. When everyone's there Y/n and Chuck take charge. They each take turns explaining sections of the discovery until they've finished. Once they are, they look at Alby and Minho, waiting for an answer or any response. They just stare at them with wide eyes. Minho is the one to break the silence. "Wow, just, wow!" Alby continues for him "This is awesome, now we've just got to figure out how to use this!" Y/n and Chuck just nod. I look at Y/n and she's fidgeting. She looks up at me with a slightly pained expression before turning to Minho and Alby. "I'd like to go out in the maze tomorrow," She says. I'm the first to react "No! No, not happening. I'm not letting you go" I say. Y/n looks at me "Please Newt, I need to go, I need to look around, figure out what this means." She says quietly. Minho looks at us. "Hey, if she does go, she'll go with me" Chuck is just standing there and has been nodding ever since Y/n suggested a trip into the maze. I look at him but he doesn't do anything so I look at Alby. He's been silent during all this so when I look at him I hope he'll back me up. "She really shouldn't go" He says "Thank you!" I say, but he's not finished "But if she really needs to.... then she can and she should" He finishes. I throw my arms up, exasperated. "Guys she came back unconscious last time!" I say. Y/n walks up to me and holds my hand. "It'll be ok Newt, I promise" I shake my head, knowing that I won't be able to change her mind. "Fine, if I can't make you not go, then I'm coming with you" I say, trying to compromise. "New-" Minho starts "No, mate, if she's going then so am I" I say, finality in my voice. He just rolls his eyes, done with arguing. "Fine, whatever. Alby you still good with that?" He says, turning to Alby at the end. He just nods, making it official. "Ok then" Minho says "Tomorrow morning, we'll meet in the kitchen for breakfast" "Sounds like a plan" I answer
Y/n's pov
We meet Minho in the kitchen and I'm still rubbing the sleep out of my eyes. After a quick breakfast with the other runners, we get our packs. I have the same one that I had last time and Newt has the one that used to be his. By the time the doors grumble open, we're ready. I've got a sheet of paper with the arrows drawn on them and we make it to section 3 - the section we'll be running today - before I pull it out. Minho runs ahead, actually doing the mapping while Newt walks with me as I scan the walls. Up and down. I try to look for any clues as to the reason for the arrows, but nothing obvious jumps out. We search for about an hour, when I start to feel a bit nauseous. My surroundings start to move, warping before my eyes. I have to stop walking and lean against the wall for support. Newt sees that I've stopped and rushes over. "Hey" he says quietly "You ok?" But I hardly hear him. Before I can say anything I feel bile fill my throat and I double over. Newt keeps my hair out of my face as I feel the last of it leave my throat. He makes me sit down and hands me a bottle of water, a concerned look plastered on his face. I feel sweat cover my face and see my hands trembling. "Are you alright, love? This is the second time this week this has happened to you. Are you sure we shouldn't have stayed in Glade today? I-" I pull on his arm to stand up, putting almost all my weight on him, making him almost fall over. "Newt, honestly I'm fine. You don't have to keep worrying about me. You've got enough to deal with" Minho comes running around the corner and we both look at him. He sighs, even though he's panting. "Look, you know I ship you guys but if you guys are just gonna have a love fest every second then yo-" "Shut up mate" Newt says, cutting him off. "She just threw up....again!" Minho just stares apparently at a loss for words. Then he seems to find his tongue. "Oof, well, come have a look up here" He says, moving on really quickly. Newt just rolls his eyes and helps me until I can walk on my own. We go to where Minho was telling us about and he points to a little plaque near the bottom of the wall. It has a little arrow that's pointing left. "Oh my god!" I exclaim "That's it, that's the first arrow!" They both look at me, probably because I just gained like 10 times the strength I had on the way here, and then each other. "Let's follow it" I say, already walking in the direction it's pointing. I walk and get to an intersection then decide to go left because that's the way the arrow points. I don't have to go too far before I see the next arrow, pointing upwards near the floor. "Newt! Minho! Look!" I shout "We have to get back to the glade, I've gotta write this down. Minho, I need all your runners in the map room when they get back" I say when they catch up to me. "Now hold on just a minute" Newt says "The section still needs to be mapped for today" Minho nods "Minho can do that" I say already walking away. "After all, he's the actual runner" I say over my shoulder. Newt hesitates, looking at Minho before he follows.
