All I wanted was to leave the life of wckd behind and never return, but here I was back where it all began. Why was I here? Because Teresa called. She called in the middle of the night rambling about me saving a group of boys and I needed to do it quick. I'd do anything for her so I made my way back to the compound I used to call home.

All the boys sat around the lunch tables engrossed in their own conversation when Thomas runs up. "I've found our way out of here!" Newt hushes the excited boy "where is it?" "It's not a where it's a who" Thomas corrects. "A who?! You've got to be bloody kidding me, I'm not trusting anyone else tommy." Thomas knew his friends hesitation but if Teresa said this person would save them he believed her. "They are called them Nightingale" "nightingale? That's ridiculous Tommy" Newt and Minho stifled laughs. "They sound like their gonna get us killed Minho rolled his eyes going back to his lunch.
As soon as he spoke he say a tall dark haired women in black dress slacks and a white blouse walk down the hall with Ava Paige. "Your 10:30 is running behind Ms.Paige, you have a 6:00 dinner and have you decided which watch you'd like to wear this evening?" The girl spoke with such ease and elegance it was hard not to stare at her until she disappeared. Newt snapped his fingers in Minho's face "hello earth to Min!" The dark haired boy whole himself from his trance "oh sorry, I got distracted." "Yeah we can see that" Thomas laughed.

I watched as the group of boys disappeared behind my line of sight, that was them. That was the group of boys Teresa dragged me back here to save. I mean I wasn't entirely complaining they were all tall, strong and undoubtedly handsome. But I knew that I promised Teresa and I needed to keep my promise I would save those boys. Even if it was the last thing I ever did. I knew the compound like the back of my hand so that wouldn't be a problem in getting the boys out. However my problem would be trust. I don't trust you and you don't trust me that's how I had lived my life and I wasn't about to change now. as I walked along the sterile halls I couldn't help but remember every painful moment I spent here. 15 years of my life spent training to kill for these people. They took my whole life. I had gotten out a year ago, that was my present to myself when I turned 19, run away and never look back. But here I was, back in this , horrid, children ruining facility.

As I came  out of my thoughts I noticed I had made my way to an office, an office I knew to well. My head snapped up as someone walked in, Janson. "What's your name lady?" "Rushman, Natalie Rushman" I spat out. He looked me up and down "Avas new assistant?" "yes sir" I replied. "you've got long legs, would of made hell of a runner if you went in the maze." It wasn't the first time someone had looked me up and down and told me job I would have had if I had been stuck in the glade. I never watched the trials like the others I was too busy training and when I was done with that it was food and rest. Then again the same cycle the next day. I went on like this my whole life. I don't ever remember having fun, just killing and kidnapping whoever was asked of me.  

I shook from my memories as Jansons hand landed on my shoulder "Are you alright Natalie, you look like you have a fever." My face did feel warm but I knew it was just because I was angry at myself for walking into Jansons office. "I do feel a bit off maybe I should lay down" I said placing the back of my hand to my forehead. "you go relax, wouldn't want a pretty thing like you dying on us." He smiled as I left. His words run in my head as I walked to find teresa. "pretty little thing" I hadn't been called that in a long time. Deep in my thoughts I didn't even notice the body I ran into "oh sorry" I said as I tried to move out of the persons way. "its okay sweets" The voice was silky and sweet I looked up meeting the dark eyes of the boy I'd seen eating lunch. "hello? earth to uh- um" I snapped out of my trance and giggled a little "Nat, You can call me Nat." He smiled "well hello Nat i'm Minho." the smile on my face only grew hearing his name. "I'll see you around Min I better be going" I pushed past him back on my mission to find teresa. "MINHO! MY NAME IS MINHO" He yelled after me and all I could do was giggle to myself and give him a quick thumbs up. I am definitely going to like seeing him again.

Teresa hugged me tight smiling so big "You came! oh thank God you came!" "of course I came T, I'd do anything for you." I couldn't help but smile too. I didn't know how much I'd missed her until I was in her arms. "Bek you look so- so professional"  I laughed "compared to the cat suit i'm usually in yes T, yes I do look professional." Her smile always made everything better no matter what was going on. "Bek the boys are not going to trust you" Teresas face fell a little she really wanted this plan to work. " I know T, I don't expect them too. No one trusts me T" My smile fell as the realization kicks in "no one..." Teresa grabbed my shoulder shaking me from my mini pity party "B I trust you, I trust you with my life and these boys lives. I know you're going to do whats right and save them." I nodded a small sad smile coming back to my face. I was starting to wonder what was right I had never quite known whats right but I trusted Teresa to help guide me. Maybe that was wrong or dangerous but she's all I had. I hadn't seen my biological sister in years so I was truly alone, I mean minus Teresa of course. But here I was, back where it all began, to help the one person who helped me and my sister when we couldn't help ourselves. I owed it to her to try.
