We will follow our Leader.

Chapter 7: Blood

Thomas and Joanna led the way to sector seven.

"Just a little further!" Thomas shouted out to the group.

Joanna turned round to see if Newt was okay. He was limping along. She ran beside him and put his arm around her neck.

"Let's go." She said to him and helped him run along. He smiled at her and kissed the temple of her head.

"Good job guys!" Joanna shouted out to the group, encouraging them.

"Just a few more turns!" Thomas also shouted out.

"You two make a good pair." Newt said loud enough for only Joanna to hear. Smirking at his sister.

"Shut up." She smiled and rolled her eyes.

They finally ran into sector seven, entering the blades. Minho was now in front. They started to walk.

Thomas walked next to Joanna and Newt, at the back.

"Can I talk to you, for a sec?" Thomas asked Joanna and she nodded. Newt walked forwards and Thomas turned to Joanna.

"What's up?" She asked him.

"I- I... Thank you." Thomas stuttered.

Joanna tilted her head at him, confused.

"Thank you for sticking by my side and helping me lead everyone to safety. Thank you for trusting me. I know it can't of been easy after hearing everything that I said and learning out who I really am and I just can't..." Thomas rambled.

He was cut off by Joanna. She pulled his face into hers and their lips connected. She felt his soft lips move into hers. They slowly pulled apart.

"Wow." Thomas whispered.

"Let's go." Joanna said and pulled him along to rest of the group.

Minho, Newt and Fry were smirking at them. Joanna rolled her eyes at her brothers and looked at the group.

"What are we waiting for?" She asked quietly.

"Grievers." Minho responded.

Her and Thomas slowly peeked around the corner to see a Griever guarding the door.

"Shit." Chuck quietly cried out.

"Okay." Joanna started, "Chuck you take the key and stay behind us." She passed him the metal key.

"It's okay, you'll be with me." Teresa smiled at him tying her hair back.

Joanna looked at the girl with thankful eyes and then at the boys.

"Once we are through the key will activate and the door will open." Thomas said.

"Right we stick together, we get past the doors, we get out. Or we die trying." Joanna looked at the boys holding a spear in her hand.

Everyone nodded and she looked at her brothers and then Thomas.

"LETS GO!" She shouted and ran round the corner.

Everyone followed shouting out battle cry's.

The Griever turned to them and charged.
Joanna pierced it's eye and then pulled the spear out and went to hit it again. The boys following suit. They dodged its tail as it swung over them. One of the boys got grabbed and thrown to the side. The struggled, boys were getting thrown everywhere.

"PUSH!" Thomas shouted and they managed to push the Griever over the edge. Watching it fall.

"RUN!" Chuck screamed and everyone looked at him to see Grievers climbing up all around them.
