"Cyra, come on!" Rye pulled his sister off the ground as I put my backpack on. "We gotta go!"

"Rye!" I yelled, twisting around to look for a place to hide. Then my eye caught lights in the mountains. Like a building. "I see lights!"

He looked up and stared at it for a few seconds. "To there!"

I nodded and together we started running. If I
wanted to, I could've sped up my pace and gotten to the lights faster, but I didn't want to leave the two behind. Yet in just two days, I grew quite close with them, especially Rye. Of course, he was just a friend, because I didn't feel anything else for him, but he meant much to me already.

"It's getting closer!" Cyra yelled as I started to panic worse.

"Just keep running," Rye ordered. We did as he told, keeping up a firm pace. I never went faster than Cyra and Rye, even though it would work in my favor.

Soon we arrived closer and I could see it indeed was a building. We ran past some old cars and garages while the lighting buzzed in my ears, the ground shaking.

Then my mouth fell open. A group of people were running toward the building too. One of them had a run I had seen so many times, I literally memorized how he did it.

"Minho!" I screamed and ran closer to the boy, who was looking at the lighting with a frightened expression on his face.

Minho turned his head, eyes widening. We made eye contact, everything going in slow motion for a second. His brown eyes were far away but as familiar as always. My gaze softened slowly, a relaxed feeling washing over me.

As I ran closer to him, he got ready to talk back but got interrupted. A lighting stroke hit him. We both fell onto the ground, a few feet away from each other.

My ears ringed and my body ached from the fall, but I had to get Minho first. He got hit, I didn't.. and I could see he was unconscious by his closed eyes and unmoving body.

"Minho!" Someone else screamed. Thomas.

He ran over to the Runner and grabbed his shoulders, some others helping him too before I even got the chance to get off the ground.

When I finally was able to do so, they already left. They ran into the building.

"Jane!" My arm got grabbed in a rush. I was too busy focusing on the Gladers to pull back or freeze in my place, which made the person able to pull me with them.

"Come on!" Cyra yelled. She was the one holding my arm and pulling me toward the mountains. "Here!"

She pushed me under a shelter, basically a big stone.
"Where's Rye?" I screamed.

"He ran toward the woods! Those are on the right of the building!" Cyra explained.

I nodded and got up, ready to find Rye, but Cyra pulled me back down. "Wait for the thunder to stop!"

As we waited, I bit my lip hard. I was worrying about the Gladers, Minho especially, and Rye. Cyra didn't show any emotions, but I was sure she was worried about her brother too.

"I think it's better now." Cyra lowered her voice after a good twenty minutes. But then we got interrupted by the sound of a.. helicopter?

"What the-." I stared at the flying thing above us. Its lights searched across the building, almost blinding me for a second.

"Jane, we gotta get out of here." Cyra realized. "To those woods."

I just nodded and quickly obeyed. Both of us walked fast and close to the ground in the hope the helicopter wouldn't see us.
