' No, Tommy, we can't just leave! '
' Newt, we have to, this place is not safe. ' I tried to tell him.
' No, you don't know that! But what I do know is that they helped rescue us from wicked. They gave us clean clothes, food, and a bed. Some of us haven't had that in a long time. Some much longer than others. '
Newt did have a point but I didn't feel bad about anything I said. This place was not safe, and what me and Aris had just seen proved my theories right.
Someone tugged on the sleeve of my shirt. It was Kate. I had taken her with me, with the intention of getting out of this place immediately. We had picked up her dog on the way. I would have wanted to leave without it, but Kate made such a fuss when we passed the room where it was kept. She said that the man had given it to her, as a birthday gift. She had named it Bruce. It sat obediently by her side.
' The man said something about having a meeting tonight. If we go now, we can go without anyone spotting us. '
I looked at Newt desperately.
' Fine. But only because of the kid. Even if we can't escape, we need to make sure she can. '
* Time skip *
' The door isn't opening! ' Teresa yelled. She kept swiping at the key pad frantically.
Janson laughed. He cocked his head.
' I'm only doing what's best for you. '
' Yeah, let me guess, Wicked is good? '
' your not getting through that door, thomas'
Janson fired the gun at me. It would have hit me if it wasn't for the golden retriever that lept in front of me last second. It was Kate's dog. We had found him on our way. Thankfully it didn't kill him. It merely scratched its back. Either way, it had saved my life. Maybe it was a good idea to bring the dog, after all.
' hey, guys '
The doors opened, revealing Aris in the other side. The others rushed through to meet up with Aris. They knew that Kate wouldn't leave my side, she had grown too attached to me. Minho slung her over his broad shoulders and carried her through. She tried to scream my name, but all that came out was a hoarse whisper. She was too weak to do anything at the moment.
I knew that it was now or never. I fired one last bullet at Janson and his men, before chucking the gun in his direction. I quickly turned on my heel and ran as fast as I could towards the slowly closing doors. Newt was frantically calling out my name and I got sudden flashbacks to the maze. I had been in this situation before, only, this time it was a lot more dangerous.
I slid on the side of my body to get under the doors. I Scrambled onto my knees as the doors shut firmly behind me.
We had successfully escaped.
