Crawling in the vents was annoying and she hated how Thomas was making sounds and hit his head everytime, "Thomas! Jesus, is your head a rock calm down." She scolded harshly while turning to look at Thomas who rolled his eyes and gave her an apologetic smile while rubbing his head in pain.
"Bro, where are you taking us?" She exclaimed looking over to the boy who crawled in silence without a word until he stopped and peered over to a vent down to the empty hallway, gesturing for them to come along both the teenagers stared at each other before crawling towards Aris and peering down the hallway with squinted eyes to get a better look.
Why is that strange things happen only in the night time.
The clicking sound of heels caught their attention as they watched a woman opening the door with what seemed to be a card, and with what seems to be beds with bodies hidden in them followed close behind the woman (who probably is a doctor) and the door closed behind her, "what the hell was that?" Asked Thomas the boy who looked up at him, "They bring in new ones every night like clockwork."
Both the runners looked at each other with slight worried and Asterin stood silent with narrowed eyes, "do you know what they do with them?" She asked the boy who shook his head back at her in reply, not knowing what to say, "I don't know. This is as far as I've ever gotten. The vents don't even go into that section, but once they go through that door, they don't come back out. I don't think anybody ever really leaves this place."
She gulped and turned to look at Thomas with narrowed eyes, Aris was like them, curious and found this place suspicious, "okay, we gotta go. Thomas, you, we'll meet up once again tomorrow and go see what is in there alright? No buts. I think I have a plan, I'll tell you about it tomorrow." She ordered with eyes that showed curiosity, she had to find out what is inside that place or she won't be calm. Thomas immediately nodded back at her without question and Aris was left thinking but he eventually agreed.
"Okay... hey, kid, what's your name?" She asked the brown haired boy who alreayd started crawling away and down the vents, he turned to look at her with a small smile before replying softly, "Aris." And with that he left, leaving a confused Thomas and Asterin who looked at the hallway one last time before crawling down the vents, Thomas stopped in front of his and Asterin had to continue her way before getting caught, "hey, Tommy, would you mind telling Minho that I'm alright and he shouldn't be worried?" Thomas on the other hand smirked at the girl before nodding.
"Sure, I'll tell your boyfriend that, good night Asterin." With that he left, leaving the girl staring weirdly at him, Thomas seemed to notice Minho turning around in his bed every damn minute and it was annoying, he had a frown in his face and was searching like a dying bug, his face showed worry.

The next morning came in a hurry and Asterin found herself in the cafeteria holding her food and chatting with her two roommates who immediately made their way towards their friends after asking her to join them, Asterin refused, she had her own friends.
Looking at Aris who was already staring at her, she nodded reassuringly at him before making her way towards her friends who greeted her warmly, Newt and Frypan smiling brightly at her, and Minho made his way to her and placed his hand on her cheek, "are you alright? Did you sleep well?" He asked the black haired girl who smiled lovingly at him before nodding in response, "I did, what about you?" She asked the asian boy with her arm wrapped around his waist as his were around her shoulders pulling her close to his body.
"Yeah I did." Minho was an amazing liar, but not with her. She read him like an open book and clearly could see the tiredness in his eyes, immediately knowing that he didn't sleep well, "hey, I'm fine, and you should rest Minho, trust me, i have amazing roommates and they're only two girls." She said reassuringly, feeling his eyes soften and the sigh of relief that escaped his lips.
"Hello Newt, Fry, how was your sleep?" She greeted her best friend and brother trying to hide the plan from them, "I slept so bloody good, like a baby." Said Newt with a grin, "same here, sis, how was yours?"
"It was good, couldn't sleep at first but eventually did."
Thomas seemed to be staring off at the distance where stood two guards guarding the door as teenagers excitedly made their way towards the group once the rat man called them, "I want to see what's through that door." He turned to look over to Asterin who was already staring at the guards looking for the key, "I'm with you, Tommy. Let's go." With that they both made their way towards the guard pretending that they were called by Janson and walking along with the so called lucky people.
One of the guards stopped her by the shoulders and pushed her back behind, "he didn't call your name." "Yeah, we just want to say goodbye to our friend." She replied trying to push past him but before she could move any further, he placed his finger on her shoulder and tried to push her backwards, "get your ass back in that chair." Glaring, she turned back around pretending to walk away before turning back around and trying to slide her way down the corridor but the guard was much stronger and Asterin found her hand sliding to his pocket and she took the key card placing it in her pocket in a swift move.
He didn't notice it thank god.
"What's your problem, man! Don't touch her like that!" Yelled Thomas while pushing the guard harshly Asterin on the other hand pushing the other guard who tried to grab Thomas, "you touch him, I'll cut you." She threatened the guard, the rest of the gladers rushed to the scene and grabbed hold of Thomas and tried to pull him back before he get himself in trouble, leaving Asterin behind glaring at the guard with her fist ready to throw yelling at his face to chill out.
He wasn't scaring her, not when she was in his face throwing curses at him.
Minho wrapped his arm around Asterin's as he tired to pull her back before she do something that will get them all in trouble, Janson heard the yelling and immediately ran to where the sound was coming from, and could see the rage in the girl's eyes as she stood face to face with the guard, "Asterin, thought we could trust each other. We're on the same team, right?" He placed his hand on her shoulder in which she immediately pushed it harshly away from her shoulder with a scowl in her beautiful face, "get your hands off me and we're not on the same team."
Her voice was harsh as she glared straight into the rat man's eyes who only stared back at her with pure cruelty in his disgusting face that she wanted to punch so bad, "get them to their bunks."
