Kylie's pov.

I watched as Thomas stabbed Newt. I could see the guilt flash in his eyes as he did. I fell next to Newt's limb body as Thomas, Gally, and Melody ran. Hot tears stream down my face as I hold him, rocking back and forth. Blood soaked my clothes but I didn't care. Alby came running over and put pressure on Newt's wound. "What happened, Kylie?" Alby had fear written on his face and in his movement.

I tried to tell him but the sobs rose up instead. Winston, Frypan, and Chuck had to drag Haley and I from our boyfriends. Clint patched our legs up and told us that we could still run and walk and everything. We just cried for hours. Jeff came over to out little group, hopefully good news. "The guys are up and in tons of pain. So no physical contact. They will only be up for about 5 minutes at the most until they go into a coma. Only you can see them." Jeff said looking at Haley and I.

We nodded and ran to the healing hut. I walked into Newt's room while Haley went to Minho's. I ran to him, questions spilling without taking a breath. "Love, I'm bloody ok. Hurts like hell but I'm ok. Don't worry." He sighed with relief when I stopped and sat down on the edge of the bed. I took his hand gently and we talked until he pass out.

Haley's pov.

I walked into the room but ran when I saw Minho. I took his hand, making sure I didn't hurt him. "Why?" I asked tears streaming down my face. Minho looked on the edge of tears. "Rather me..... than you." He smiled. I smiled back. His smile faded like he just remembered something. He looked over at his old, brown runners pack and looked back at me.

"Haley, grab my backpack and open it please." I did as I was told. "Now there is a shiny, silver cylinder shaped tube in there. Take it. I think thats how we get out of here." I pulled it out and stared at it in astonishment. It had the number 7 at the top in red. "Minho, what is this thing?" I turned it over and looked at every detail, trying to memorize every turn and dent and mark.

"I pulled it out of the dead griever about 2 days ago." He said, breathing heavly. "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ANYONE!?!?!" I yelled only loud enough for him to hear. "I-I-I.... I don't know. I was scared and confused. It beeped louder as you move deeper into the maze though. Check it out tomorrow. Take someone with yo......." He didn't finish before he past out.

I stared at the cold, metal object in my hands. What will this lead to? I wonder as I walk out and towards Kylie who was aganist the side of the Homestead. "Hey, how did i...... WHAT IS THAT??!!" She whisper/yelled, pointing at the object as she saw me walking up with it. "Minho gave it to me before he pasted out. He found it about 2 days ago, DON'T ask why he didn't tell us earlier." I added as she was about to say something.

"He found it in a dead griever. He told me that it beeped as he walked closer to the center of sections 7. And to check it out tomorrow and to take someone with me. I want you to come with me." I explained and her eyes lit up. "YES!!! We might have a way out. Oh my god. We can get out ans have a happy life with all of our friends and NO LITTLE MINHO'S." She exclaimed making me blush.

"We will also have to make sure that its going to be ok that you come with me but that might be a problem." I said as we get up and go to find Alby.

We might get out after all.
