Mazes- The Death Cure

8- Savior

My eyes opened quickly as the cold water rushed along my skin. Swimming up I panicked as my lungs convulsed. Bobbing up and out of the water I gasped for air. Brushing my hair out of my face with my hands I looked around. Minho slowly swam towards the edge as Thomas popped out of the water. Newt. Where was Newt.

"Newt?" I asked looking around. Shit. He slowly came up out of the water coughing and swam over to the edge. We all climbed out slowly. Catching my breath I stood up and helped Newt up.

"You good?" I asked him as he pulled off his gear. Thomas did the same as we all walked over to each other.

"Freeze!" A muffled voice yelled. 3 guards stood in front of us as we looked over at them.

"Shit," I muttered. The back guard quickly moved and shot the other two as they fell to the ground. I flinched and stared in confusion. Pulling off his helmet Gally looked at us.

"Gally?" We all asked.

"You guys are fucking crazy," He replied looking up at the window and down at the water. I smiled softly as he looked over at Minho.

"Gally? How are you alive? I threw a spear through your chest?" Minho asked as we walked behind Gally.

"Can't kill me man," Gally said grinning. I rolled my eyes and kept walking.

"We have to get to Brenda," Thomas said as I noticed Newt sitting down slowly against a wall. The ground shook as a cloud of smoke and loud bang erupted from nearby. Gally and I looked at each other.

"They're going, come on, we have to go," Gally said walking faster.

"Hold on," I said walking over to Newt. He took deep breaths and winced as he looked up at me.

"Come on we have to go," I said helping him up. Minho and Gally came and took Newt, helping him walk as Thomas and I guided the way.

"He's not going to make it," Thomas said turning a corner. I looked over at him and shook my head.

"No, he's fine, we just have to hurry," I said as an explosion erupted from next to us. Thomas grabbed me as we stumbled around.

"They're supposed to take down WCKD not the whole city," Gally said from behind us. Thomas and I separated as we kept walking. Entering an alleyway Newt groaned. Minho and Gally set him down against a wall as I studied his tired and decaying demeanor. Minho walked over and pulled me aside.

"We won't make it in time, I'm going to find Brenda and we'll meet you at the train station. Okay?" Minho asked. I shook my head and looked at him. he held my shoulders and looked into my eyes.

"Bella, I need you to trust me, you and Thomas stay with him and get him to the train station. We'll meet you with the serum. Do you understand?" He asked. I looked up at him and nodded frantically. Hugging him I looked down at Thomas as he comforted Newt.

"He's going to be okay," Minho whispered as we pulled apart.

"Be careful," I said as he and Gally ran off.

"Okay, come on," I said trying to help Newt up.

"Wait, guy wait," Newt said.

"Newt come on we don't have ti-," Thomas said before Newt ripped off his necklace. Handing it to me he looked up at me groggily. He was going. Newt wasn't himself.

"No, you keep that," Thomas said pushing it away.

"Just fucking take it," Newt added.

"Newt," I said shaking my head.
