Mistake || The Maze Runner || Y/n x Newt

45 Minho

The four of us walked out. Making our way to the building following after Teresa pretending to be normal.

"Keep moving." Thomas whispered, pushing Teresa forward as we turn towards the elevator.

I reached forward pressing the button.
We were all getting impatient.

"Come on, come on." Thomas repeatedly pressed the button.

Finally, the doors opened and we walked inside .

The doors were shutting, but just as they were almost closed and arm, stuck through the gap, pushing the doors open. The one person I do not want to see, the one person I want to kill most of all, Rat Man.

"Hold it." He said, stepping in standing beside Teresa. He pressed a button for his stop, and the doors came to a close.
I tightened the grip on my gun.

"You're working late. See, that's what I like about you, Teresa. No matter how bleak things get, you just... Well, you never give up. Times like this, you need a friend that you can count on."

"I'll bear that in mind." Teresa answered.

"There is one thing you should know. One friend to another. Thomas is here." When Rat Man said that my heart beat faster I was ready to shoot. "A surveillance picked him up outside the walls." I let out of breath, we had not been discovered yet. "Ava didn't want you to know but there's a chance that he may try to contact you... and if he does... well, I'd like to think I'd be your first call."

"Are you going to kill him?" Teresa asked.

"Would that be a problem?" Rat Man wondered.

We were saved by the doors. The elevator came to stop.

"This is me." Teresa walked out and we fall behind leaving Rat Man in the elevator.

——

"Thomas, (Y/n), you have to listen to me." Teresa spoke as we're far enough away from Rat Man. "Getting that serum won't save Newt. It might buy him some time, but..."

"Just ignore her." Newt said. "She's trying to get inside your head."

"Thomas, listen. You know what's going on out there. People are dying. The world is dying. There's some thing about your blood I don't understand."

We stopped at the doors that lead into the whole lab section.

"Open it." Thomas said.

"If you let me run some tests..." Teresa tried as she opened the door for us with her thumbprint. "I promise I can protect you."

"Yeah?" Thomas pulled off his mask. "They keep protected Minho?"

"What are you doing?" Newt grab Thomas's shoulder.

"How many people is it gonna take?" Thomas shoved Newt off. "How many more people do they have to round up, torture, kill?"

"Tom, don't be stupid, we got to go." I try.

"Huh? When the hell does it stop?"

"It stops when we find a cure." Teresa said.

"There is no goddamn cure!" Thomas spat.

"Don't waste your breath, Teresa." We turn around to see Rat Man holding a gun pointing at us. Newt, I and Thomas all aim our guns at him. "He made his choice long ago."

"Drop it, kid!" A WICKED guard, yelled from our left.

Thomas quickly grabbed Teresa pulling her in and holding his gun to her head.
