We end up in pit 12, and I look around. Thomas looks around and we go left. "I'll meet you guys there, there's something I gotta do." Aris says and I frown. "What?" I ask and look at aris. "You guys wanna get out of here or not?" He says and I nod.

"I'll go with." Winston says and they crawl back into the vents and we start running. "Sure we can trust this kid?" Minho asks and I let out a laugh. "You don't know where we would be without him."

We take a turn and suddenly dr. Crawford is in front of us. "What are you kids doing out here?" She asks and we look at each other. Then, an alarm starts beeping and she realises.

We take her with, wanting us to lead us to the exit. We take a turn and then I see a man, holding a gun. "Freeze!" He yells and we quickly run back into the hallway, having no other option.

"Why are they shooting us?" Fry asks and I see Minho turn around. With determination in his eyes he stands. And waits. I hear the man yell all kinds of things but I was just looking at Minho.

"Minho? What are you doing?" Stiles yells and Minho starts running, the man comes around the corner and Minho kicks him hard, making him pass out. Stiles grabs the gun and I nod.

"Shit Minho." Newt says and I chuckle. "Let's go." We end up going to the medical wing, it being the fastest way out.

The door opens and Dr. Crawford goes first. "Dr. Crawford? Why-" the doctor stops when he sees Stikes with a gun. Everyone holds their hands up immediately and I look around.

"This was the fastest way out!" Stiles yells at her when there was just glass. "Fuck!" He yells and I look back. "They're coming!" I yell and Newt throws a metal table sideways and puts it between the door and another table. The door opens and I look at them.

"The glass, break the glass!" I yell and me and Stiles both grab a chair. First time it didn't break, thankfully it did the second time.

Thomas and Newt go first and I slowly walk over, being caught by Stiles. With one hand under my knees and the other in my side, he puts me down. "Thanks." I whisper and he nods.

"Hurry, let's go!" Minho yells and he gets over last, throwing the gun at Stiles. We open the door and there is a man standing in front of us. Shocked by his presence we stay silent, then, Stiles shoots the man and he gets electrocuted.

"Shit, come on!" He yells when the man's down and we start running. We get to a long white hall and have to run a very long time until we came by the end.

Stiles passes the card through the scanner and the access got denied. He tries again, still denied. "Fuck!" I yell, looking back seeing Janson walk over. "Thomas!" Janson yells and he stops, pointing the gun at Janson. "Or should I say Stiles?" He says and I clench my teeth.

"Open this door Janson!" He yells and creates space between us by walking forward. "You really don't want me to." He says, holding his hands in the air.

"Open this damn door!" He yells again, his voice louder. "Listen to me! I'm trying to save your life." He says and Minho keeps trying to sweep the card through, but it's still denying.

"The maze is one thing. But you kids wouldn't last one day out in the scorch. And then what? We are the only ones knowing how to get you back to your own world." He says and my heart stops.

"What?" I ask, having my attention. "Jane, you have to believe me." He says to me and they all look at me. "I only want what's best for you." He says and I scoff. "Yeah, let me guess? Wicked is good?" Stiles says and janson lowers his hands, smirking.

"You're not getting through that door, Thomas." Then, the door says access granted, turning green. The door opens and both Aris and Winston appear.

"Hey guys." Aris says and we start running. "Thomas, come on let's go!" He says and Thomas starts shooting, running. "Shut the main vault door, shut the main vault door!" Janson yells and the door starts closing.

"No! Stiles!" I yell and we start encouraging him, trying to make him move faster. He slides under the door, just before it closes and I see he isn't hurt. Aris breaks the passage through so we're locked from them.

Minho grabs a bag and I see Winston grab a pistol. "You little shit," Janson says and I smile. We run, while Stiles puts his middle finger in the air.

We make it out in no time, having no one to stop us. Eventually, the door to the scorch opens, and we run outside towards the wind and the desert.

There was a lot of wind and then I saw a lot of troops coming out. "Come on we'll lose him in the storm!" And we did, we stayed low like Stiles told us and eventually we end up running towards a building, and even though Stiles protests, I slide inside the broken window.

"Lynn wait!" I hear Stiles yell, but I've already gotten in. After everyone's in I look around me. "Where are we?" Minho asks looking around. "We gotta go." Stiles says and I shake my head. "Stiles no. Stop!" I yell at him when he doesn't reply.

He turns around and sighs. "We need to tell them first." I say and look at them. "We found bodies. Maybe a hundred or so," I say and Minho frowns. "Dead bodies?" He asks and I shake my head.

"No, but they weren't alive either." I say and Minho looks horrified. "They had them strung up, with tubes coming out of them, they were being... they were being drained." He whispers and I shake my head.

"They're something inside of us that WICKED wants. Something in our blood." He says and I sigh. "So we have to get as far away from them as possible." He says and I nod.

"Well what are we gonna do Thomas?" He looks at me. "Jane or Lynn or whatever your name is now." Newt says and I scoff at him. "Don't snap at me Newt, it's not my fault I don't wanna be in a coma for the rest of my life being subject to WICKED." I say raising my tone slightly.

"You dragged us out here and now you're basically saying that you have no idea where we're going or what we're doing." He says and I shake my head.

"I do know. Its a long shot, but it might help." I say and Aris nods. "Yeah, Janson said something about... people hiding in the mountains." Aris says and I nod. "Some kind of resistance, or army." He continues and Stiles realises too.

"We have to find the right arm." I say and Aris nods. "If they're really against WICKED, maybe they can help us." Stiles says and Newt looks at the three of us in disbelief.

"People."

"In the mountains."

"Mountain people?" He asks and I nod. "That's the plan?" I shake my head. "There's more. Flat trans. They talked about if the right arm found the flat trans before WICKED did, they'd be in serious. I'm betting that flat trans is the way home." I say and now they're all looking at me.

"What? A flat trans. A transportation portal that looks like a flat door. Flat trans. Honestly can any of you think logically?" I say sarcastic and Stiles nods.

"She's right. If we find the flat trans before any of them do, we can go home," I say and Newt nods. "Yeah. But what are we gonna do then?" I let out a laugh and smile at him.

"You think we're leaving you here?"
