*THOMAS*

I woke up to see Newt talking to Alby and that black haired boy. They stood there with some packs on their backs. Newt waved them off as the door started to open. I didn't know what was happening. I wanted to know from curiosity so i got dress. I put on my blue top and boots and I walked over to Newt. I dodged as many people as i could since i didn't want to be engaged into a conversation. Some said 'hi' But i just walked away with a slight wave of the hand.

Newt leaned on the wall. His head drooped.

"Hey, whats going on?" Newt lifted his head then stood up straight. A smile appeared on his beautiful face. Wait... what?

"Last night, Minho came racing back with some news of a bloody dead Griever. Alby wanted to go and see the dead griever.It's never happened before so him and Minho left to see it.

Newt didn't look happy at all.

"Anyway time to get to work." His hands rubbed together with brief smile. A fake smile. He jogged away noticing the limp. It was obvious.

I ran after him, catching up with him in seconds. He was slow, but was okay.

We were finished for the day. So, Newt, Chuck and me went into the sleeping area. It had started to rain when we reached it. Newt had lent on a small, twig like tree. His arms were folded and looked so worried.

"Aren't they meant to be back now?"

His worry grew as i said that.

"What happens if they don't make it?" He looked into my eyes. A emotionless face.

"There gonna make it." I looked towards the east door.

"What if they don't?" I turned my head toward him again.

"There gonna make it okay! Stop asking questions!"

Newt looked worried sick. I started to walk out into the rain. He took my arm. I felt little sparkles run up my arm. His touch so soft and warm

"What are you doing?" He looked angry now.

"I'm going to look. If that's okay with you Newt!" I didn't mean to say that. I really didn't. "I'm sorry," I smiled and he smiled a brief smile. But I could see it was fake.

" Are you coming?" He nodded and started to walk. Our foot steps matched as we walked over to the east door.

As we reached the door, other Gladers followed. We all swarmed the wide opening. All loud boom sounded. Wind nearly blown me off our feet. Dirt flew up, our arms covered our eyes. Newt look like he was going to drop down dead. I felt a hand tremble on my arm. Newt had grabbed my arm. He squeezed gentle. It scared me that he was this scared.

"Newt?" i turned to see his eyes wet with tears. His body now shaking like mad. He knelt down. "Tom..my."

I heard some Gladers scream. I looked up to see Minho dragging Alby. He struggled, grunting at every pull. He stopped and took some breaths.

"COME ON MINHO!" I screamed. Newt lent on my leg. I heard him shout beside me. He managed to stand up now. I thought of what i could do. I didn't know what i could do.

I ran. My legs hauled me forward toward the maze. I squeezed through the small gap. I felt a cold hand grab my arm

"Tommy...no. TOMMY!" I shuck him off. I managed to get through the gap. Boom! The doors slammed shut.

"Tommy...no. TOMMY!" His screams echoed around my mind.

*NEWT*

"Tommy...no. TOMMY!" I screamed as loud as i could. I hit my hands hard on the wall. I punched the wall so hard, bloody oozed out on my knuckles. I felt somebody pull me away. It was Chuck.
