Nightfall came and Thomas and Teresa were to be banished for existing basically. In Gally's mind this was all their fault when anyone with a reasonable mind knew that it wasn't, he was just being unreasonable. Not liking the change. I felt it just pushed us to do better.
After Thomas woke up we made a plan that involved getting the hell out of here. We even went as far as asking others to join us when we acted. Frypan and Winston were the only others we approached and they both agreed. Thank god.
Minho and I stood by each other, 'sorrow' written across our faces but hope engraved in our minds. Newt held the same but Chuck was no where in sight. He was off getting weapons and supplies. It was also to avoid him getting hurt for as long as possible. Gally's builders walked Teresa over to the maze entrance and two others dragged Thomas over before dropping him to the ground. He was 'unconscious'.
"Tie her up." Gally orders but the builder with her hesitates. I nod at Winston.
"What are we doing Gally? this doesn't feel right man." Winston states and Gally scoffs.
"Not right? Look at us. Look at our glade. This is their fault." He begins then looks over at Teresa who still wasn't tied up. "Did you hear me? I said tie her up!" Gally shouts.
"Do you think banishing me will help anything?" Teresa asks and now it's Gally's turn to look perplexed. I see Chuck walking over and slowly put my hand out, telling him to stop where he was without attracting Gally's attention.
"This isn't a banishment. It's an offering." Gally answers and quickly we know our plan may not work unless Thomas is listening in and the gears in his head are turning.
Teresa's eyes widen. "What?" The she is slammed against the pole and the builder grabs her hands and ties them to the post. Shit I think to myself.
"You really think I'll let him into the maze after what he's done? This is the only way." Gally tells us and I scoff. Yeah, sure.
"You really think this will work? They'll come back-" Teresa begins but she is cut off by Gally.
"Shut up. Tie him up."
"They'll come back and they're going to keep coming back until you're all dead!" Teresa shouts.
"I said shut up. Tie him up!" Gally shouts again and then the plan goes into motion. As the two builders lift Thomas up, he elbows them in their knees, making one fall to the ground in pain. He jumps up and takes a spear nearby and hits the other across the head, knocking him out cold. Minho and I rush for Gally who was about to lunge for Thomas but the feel of our cold blades on his shoulder made him stop and put his hands in the air. Frypan cuts Teresa free of the ropes she was being held in and Chuck runs as fast as he can with the weapons. We stand there in a group, ready to escape the glade and the maze.
Thomas makes an offer to allow the others to leave. Stating that we aren't coming back and the majority left behind make their way to us, sadness written on their faces. Gally looks around, looking at what little he has left. He nods in betrayal.
"Gally, just come with us." Thomas pleads.
"Good luck against the grievers." Gally answers and we nod before making our way in to the maze. Minho and I led the way while Thomas and Newt held the back, right up until we got to section 7 which had opened up again. Thomas gave Chuck the key while Teresa tied her hair up.
When we get to the corridor of the hopeful exit we stopped to assess the situation. Thomas peaked his head around before snapping back around.
"Is there a griever?" Chuck asks and Thomas nods. I hear Chuck whisper shit but he holds a brave face.
