Newt x Y/n - Maze Runner

-12-

"Y/N?!"

My eyes opened and my body jolted up to be sat with my legs entangled under my body. Suddenly, an intense, ringing pain rung across my body, starting at my arm. My eyes quickly travelled to my arm and I saw the tooth, a black ink-like substance filling the wound that it had created.

I could feel my heart rate increase and my body started to shake violently as I franticly looked around the space I was in. It wasn't the glade. The tall, dark maze walls surrounded me but there was no long corridors or thin ways to run it was a box? I stood up, feeling the burning in my legs as I spun on the spot, scanning the walls, they had no vines, no numbers no nothing except one of them, the one just behind me, was covered in light scratches.

I took a wobbly step closer, my eyes adjusting to the dark area around me as I pressed my hand to the wall and my eyes widened. Somehow, my breathing sped up again as tears came to my eyes and I started to choke on my breath.

It was the gladers wall. The one covered in our names, carved into the concrete but all of them had lines running through them. I looked at all of them through the tears in my eyes, 'Minho', 'Thomas', 'Alby', 'Chuck', 'Gally'.

Every name had scratches carved through the messily scribbled names. I stepped back, looking at them all when my eyes fell on one name.

Newt

Around the name was a thin heart, scrapped into the chipped stone and through it was three, sharp lines. Cutting through both his name and the heart.

I collapsed onto the ground, my heart pounding louder and louder in my ears as I cried out loudly. My throat was sore and my head was spinning. My fist hit the ground and I cried out again only to get the response of a growl. The growl I knew so well at this point. A griever.

I sat up and scanned the box like structure I was in as the clashing of metal on the ground grew louder, my body yelling at me to run but there was nowhere I could go.

Tears streamed down my face and I whipped my head around when the clanging stopped and above the high wall, a large creature watched me. It's teeth bared, one missing from it's large mouth and in it's completely black eye, a bloodied knife.

"No... please... NO!" I screamed.

I jumped down. It's tail flexed behind it's body and in the middle of the spiky spines of the tail, a syringe. One huge spike that flung towards me.

My body shut down. My eyes watching as the syringe flew down towards me and suddenly, it stuck into my side.

More pain spreading across my stomach.

I looked down and the black rope-like lines spread through my veins. Then my breath stopped. My heart slowed and my head tilted back. I saw the wall, all our names scratched into the concrete and my eyes settled on the heart, one name crossed out,

Newt.

My eyes closed.

~~~

"Y/N?!"

I jolted awake. My body flinging forwards and I franticly looked around. Surrounding me was Minho, Alby, Gally, Thomas and Newt. My eyes were wide and somehow there was already tears covering my pale cheeks.

I jumped towards Newt and yanked him into a tight hug, my mind filled with the wall that I had just seen.

Newt tightly wrapped his arms around my torso and he pulled me further into him as a few other pairs of arms followed, wrapping around us, allowing my breathing to slowly become steady and calmed.

"What happened love?" Newt asked, pulling back but keeping his arms tightly wrapped over my waist.

I looked at everyone in the room, light seeping through the wood of the hut, "Y-you were - the griever it... Minho you-" I couldn't form any kind of sentence.

"Hey... hey. It's ok, everyone is safe." Newt pulled me back into him and kissed my head.

I nodded listening to him speak, it was a dream... it hadn't happened... everyone was safe.
