"I have a proposal."
"No Teresa! She's scared!"
"I would like to become a runner."
"Come on we know her! She puts up a tough act when she is scared and freaking out inside. She's not going to tell anyone how she feels about what's happening to her...

Lucy, Gally and Newt all met in Homestead where Minho, Thomas, Frypan, Zart and Winston wanted to meet them to talk about what they had found. Lucy sat at the back where she sat when everyone discussed what they should do to Thomas, while everyone stood in a circle to talk. "Yeah, we found this. It was inside a Griever."
They handed Newt a metal object to let him observe it. "These are the same letters we get on our supplies," Newt told them making Lucy snap her attention towards where Newt was standing holding the object. "So clearly, whoever put us in this hellhole also made the Grievers which are supposed to keep us in the Glades by the sounds of it. And when we fond the way out..." Lucy put her hand over her wound trailing off.
Thomas continued"This is the first real clue, the first really anything you've found in over three years right, Minho?" The boy turned his head to face Lucy who was clenching her jaw as she was the only one who knew that it wasn't true. He needed to talk to her, and ask the girl what she knew because he knew that it was something big that could help them. "Right," he replied.
"Newt we gotta go back out there. Who knows where this might lead us?" Thomas told them all as Gally and Newt turned to face each other as Gally had enough of whatever Thomas was doing. "You see what he's trying to do, right? First, he breaks our rules then he tries to convince us to abandon them totally. The rules are the only thing that has ever held us together. Why now are we questioning that? If Alby was here, you know he'd agree with me. This shank needs to be punished."
"You're right. Thomas broke the rules. One night in the pit and no food." Newt declared.
"Oh, come on, Newt. One night in the pit? You think that's gonna stop him from going into the Maze?" Gally argued while Lucy rolled her eyes knowing this is how Galy would react because he just wants everyone to be safe and this was the way he thought was right. "No. And we can't just have non-Runner running into the Maze whenever they feel like it. So let's just make this official. Starting from tomorrow, you're a Runner."
"Wow." Gally began to walk out of the room when Fry called out to him the two ended up leaving.
"Can I say something?" Lucy stood up from her spot and walked up to the group as Newt nodded his head everyone's eyes were on her to continue. "Okay, so this may sound insane but you need to trust me. I don't wanna be a runner."
"Okay..." Newt was a little confused as it was not insane of the redhead to not go into the Maze again but he knew she had more to say so he gestured for her to continue. "But I would like to have permission to go into the Maze tomorrow."
"What?!" Everyone chorused together shocked that she would say that. "I know, I know. Why Would I wanna go back in after I almost died? You wanna know something? Thomas wasn't the first to kill a Griever." She spat out.
"What are you trying to say?" Winston asked her as she bit her lip looking at the ground replying that night in her head. "An hour after Minho left was when the first Griever came. It was only one. It attacked first so I stabbed it and it fell off" a bridge, a bridge no one could see the bottom of."
