Just keep running

17

It had been a few hours since we were driving. We stopped the car when we found a tunnel. 

Is that are only way to Wicked? I asked. 

Seems like it. Thomas said. 

Okay, is it just me or does this look like the place where a crank would live. Newt said. 

I don't think we have a choice. Thomas said. 

Fine, but I call shotgun. Newt yelled as we all went into the car and drove in the tunnel. 

The tunnel was dark, barely any light. We put the car's lights on and kept driving. 

I held my gun I was ready to shoot any crank. 

Wow. Stop. Frypan said. 

I looked and saw one crank. 

It's okay it's just one. Go around it and go slow. Thomas said. 

Yeah that's a good idea. I said. 

I sat back and once I turned around I saw a women at the window. 

Please, help me, let me in! Yelled the women as she non stopped slam on the glass. 

Punch it Fry! I yelled. 

Fry push on the gas and we bolted. As Fry was driving there was a crank on top of the car. 

Fry get him off the the car! I yelled. 

I'm trying! Fry yelled. 

Fry turned quickly causing the car to fall over. 

Thomas broke the window and helped Fry out while, while Newt helped me out. 

If their were still driving tests, Fry I think you would fail. 

Oh shut up. Fry said. 

Once we were all up we heard all the cranks heading are way. 

I grabbed the gun and shot at heats five. 

Thomas grabbed my hand and we ran. 

We kept running and I kept shooting. 

Fuck, I'm out! I yelled. 

We were surrounded until we heard gunshot's. We looked at where the gunshots came from and saw Brenda shooting. 

Get in! She yelled. 

As we got in, Chole shot dozens more as Jorge drove off. 

Once we were out of the tunnel Brenda and Chole put there guns away. 

Chole than looked at me. 

What the fuck where you guys thinking? Huh taking the car and driving off. You guys could have died! Chole yelled. 

Look I'm sorry, Chole I can't wait for a plan to happen while Minho is being torched. I said. 

And didn't I tell you that we would work together! Paige I would have no problem going out of a shank tunnel. Chole said. 

Alright your right I'm sorry. I said. 

Any of you guys do that again I'm leaving your ass. Chole said. 

Got it. Newt said. 

Well we're out of luck guys those we're the city's last defense. Jorge. 

Um I think they found another way to keep the cranks out. Newt said. 

We looked over and Jorge stopped the car. We all got out and looked at the city. The last city. 

We spent three years getting out of those walls and now we have to sneak back in? Newt said. 

Yeah, I know it sucks but Minho is in there. I said as we all headed towards the city. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once we entered the city's outside walls we kept are hoods up. They were guards everywhere. One I noticed was looking at Chole just Chole. 

As we reached  the gate, out of no where the guns above the walls started shooting at us. 

Go, go, go! Thomas yelled as he grabbed my hand. 

We ran and we saw everyone around us getting shot. 

As we were running I saw Newt get taken in a van. Before I could say anything the guard that was looking at Chole grabbed me and threw me with Newt, along with Brenda, Chole, Thomas, and Fry. They took Jorge in another van. 

I felt the car drive off. It didn't take long for the car to stop. 

Once it did and they opened it Thomas and I stepped out along with the others. We heard the other van moving and heard Jorge screaming. 

We saw a guard getting thrown out and Jorge yelling at him. 

Where are they! Jorge yelled. 

Brenda went over to him and told him Chole and her were fine.

Hey, calm down we're all on the same side here. The guard said. 

What side, who are you? Thomas yelled. 

The guard stopped for a moment and took off his mask. 

My eyes were shocked to see who it was. 

Gally Alive.

Before any of us could truly react Thomas went over and Punched Gally. 

Hey, Thomas stop! I said. 

He killed Chuck. Thomas said. 

Hey, look at me. I know but that wasn't him remember he was stung. Let him go. I said. 

Thomas than got off of Gally. 

Gally then stood up and looked at me. 

Look Paige I'm so- I cut Gally off and hugged him. 

I'm glad your alive. I said as I let him go. 

I looked over at Chole her eyes were stunned as if she was just seeing this. 

She walked up to Gally and put her hands on his face. 

Is it really you Gally? Chole said. 

Yeah sis it's me. Gally said. 

Chole than pulled him into a tight hug. She was crying of joy to see her baby brother alive and well. 

Alright, now that we're all reunited, Thomas someone want's to see you. Just Thomas. Gally said as the guards took us to where we were staying. 

Once we were set I sat on my bed tried to rest. 

Newt than came and sat next to me.

You okay? Newt said. 

No, I'm not. Newt I don't think I can handle losing anyone else. And I'm trying not to think that way but we lost so many people. First Ben, Alby, Zart, Jeff, Chuck, and Winston. Newt I'm terrified about thinking Minho is going to be next. I said. 

Newt than brought me into a deep  hug. 

I'm gonna make sure Minho's not next Paige. Besides he is not gonna go out without beating Wicked. Trust me. Newt said. 

Okay. I said. 

Hey, Gally found a way for us to get into the city. Thomas said.
