FORGE OF OAK, Thomas ✓

034

Thalia walked near the WICKED building entrance, Thomas behind her in a guard uniform. The walked through the door, guards everywhere like they have been for the past four months.

"Go slow." Thomas said to her, they walked through the security, the light turning green and they continued walking.

They met with Newt, who was also in a guard uniform, nodded, and kept walking. They walked down stairs, she spotted Teresa and Millie talking and smiling but ignored them and kept walking.

She used her card, walking in to flights of stairs. "Hold on, hold on. I can get in here." Gally said making them turn.

"Throw me the walkie," Thomas took off his mask and caught the walkie that Gally threw at him. Thomas walked down the stairs, and Newt started coughing.

She looked at him, and she knew. He had the flare. "Newt-" she began but Thomas walked up the stairs.

"Frypan were in how you doing?" Thomas asked on the walkie.

"Yeah, yeah I'm getting there." Frypan spoke back. "Tell Minho hi for me."

"And me!!! Please!!" Thalia heard Florence speak in the background.

"And for Florence. You know how they are." Frypan chuckled into the walkie.

"Hang in there guys." Thomas said before handing the walkie on his waist.

  Gally started at the wires, "I think I can get this." He said. They then instructed her to take them to the third level.

She used the thumb pad to open a double door, it sliding up but they were met with a guard. Thomas quickly shot the guard, the guard falling back.

"Jesus Christ.." she muttered, watching Thomas Gally and Newt shoot all the guards that were in front of them. Thalia has one thing on her mind, Mark, and Thomas.

Another guard came from a hallway. "What the hell-" Mark quickly hid behind a desk.

"Mark?!" Thalia yelled, making Thomas Newton and Gally turn around to look at her.

"Lia? Lia!" Mark shouted back, still hiding behind the desk.

"Mark don't move! They'll shoot you."

"Yeah I kind of figured!" Mark said as they heard a gun reloading.

"Mark don't shoot them!" Thalia yelled as he stood up and pointed the gun at Thomas.

"What? Why not?" He furrowed his brows.

"Because they-.." she paused. "They mean a lot to me, okay? Don't do it. Please." She pleaded.

"Thalia they killed Anna," Mark furrowed his brows.

"No you killed Anna!" She yelled. "Mark, I love you. But don't lie to me." She was in front of the three now, looking at Mark. "Don't lie to me."

Mark paused, before sighing and dropping his gun. "Fine. I killed Anna."

Thalia felt tears prickle her eyes, "tell me. Tell me everything that I don't know."

"I was sent to the Right Arm as a spy in their numbers, as you know when you rescued me from WICKED.. it was really all a plan." He said and Thalia signaled for him to continue.

"But I fell in love with you, Lia." Mark was going to say more but Thalia interrupted.

"Don't call me that. Now continue." She scolded.

"WICKED took you to put you inside the Maze as my punishment, but they found out about your abilities with the bow so they made you work on the Maze with Thomas and Teresa." He continued.

"That's why I never remembered you working on the Maze, you were on a different section than us." Thomas mumbled.

"When you all got to the Right Arm.. Teresa told me about WICKED wanting us back." Mark mumbled.

"And?"

"I said yes. And I told them that you agreed to let them take you as well.. as long as you got your memories back." Mark sighed, and then the tears started.

"You.. what?" She said under her breath. "You lied to me. You took me from my friends, you said you loved me, you.."

"Thalia." Thomas put a hand on her shoulder.

"No, Thomas. I don't want to see his face anymore." She wiped the tears off her face and kept walking. "Let's go save those kids." Thalia brushed his hand off and opened another door with her thumb.

She waited for them to take down the guards, then they all opened doors for the kids. "Let's go," Newt told.

"The vault, how do I get in." Gally said as he placed a gun to a guards face.

"You can't," the guard muttered and Gally let him go, walking towards a door.

   "Guys, this might take some time." Gally said as he turned to them.

    "Shit." Thomas sighed. "He's not here." Thomas walked up to Thalia. "Where is he."
