"Has he said anything?" Newt asked, sitting next to Alby. Me, him, Minho, Thomas, Teresa, Clint and Jeff were in the medjacks hut. "No" Clint answered.

"Alby. Alby, are you all right?" The blonde asked, to which the boy didn't reply. "Hey, Alby." Thomas said, crouching down by his side.

"Alby, we might have just found a way out of the maze. Do you hear me? We could be getting out of here." Thomas told him.

"We can't." He said."We can't leave. They won't let us." Alby said. "What are you talking about?" Thomas asked."I remember." The boy replied.

"What do you remember?" Thomas asked. "You. You were always their favorite, Thomas. Always." Me and Minho exchanged a confused glance, who are they?

"Why did you do this? Why did you come here?" He said. The door opened, we turned around to find Winston, behind him the graders were seen running around.

"Winston, what's going on?" Thomas asked now fully turned to him. It's the doors. They aren't closing." He said.

We all ran outside, it was fairly dark, but dark enough for the doors to be closed. But they weren't. I looked at the graders all walking towards the doors.

Then, we heard the sound of the door behind us opening. Soon all of them were opened, leaving them open for the grievers to walk in.

We stood watching as the gladers ran towards the very much opened doors, then we heard a sound behind us, I turned around, watching in terror as the rest of the doors opened.

Thomas went straight into action.

"Chuck" Said boy turned to look at him "Go to the Council Hall and start barricading the doors." "Mmm-hmm." Chuck turned around and ran to the Council Hall. "Winston, you go with him." He added "Got it." Winston said.

"Get the others. Tell them to go to the forest. Go hide, now!" Thomas told Newt as Winston and Chuck ran, the boy quickly doing the same.

"Minho, I want you to grab every weapon you can find." I shared look with the boy "Hey it's okay were gonna be okay?" I nodded. "I'll meet you at the Council Hall" He said. "Okay be safe" "Always" I smiled and he turned around and ran wherever he was going.

"Teresa, you, Katherine and I are gonna go get Alby, all right? Come on." We both nodded and we went.

That was until a griever literally entered the Glade. "All right everybody hide!" Thomas yelled, we all ran to our respective spots, all except Teresa. She stayed frozen in front of the doors. "Teresa!" Thomas yelled for the girl and dragged her away from the scary creature.

We ran towards the corn fields, with the griever right behind us. "Get down!" Thomas ordered and I did so, crouched next to the boy and some other gladers I listened as everything went quiet, except for the sound of the grievers.

Suddenly, a mechanical leg grabbed Zart, lifting him up the ground "Help!" Zart screamed. I, among others, reached out to try to grab the boy, but I was too late, the boy had already been taken.

I looked to the ground as I realized that Zart was gone, but it didnt last long as everyone started running away, and I ran too. "Go get to the building" Thomas ordered. And so we did.

When we reached the building we found Clint and Jeff carrying Alby on their shoulders. "Alby" Thomas said. "Whats going on?" Clint asked. "Theyre here." Thomas explained. We heard screaming behind us as we quicky found the griver making its way over.

Gladers were being taken left and right. "What do we do?" Jeff asked, backing up.

Suddenly, there was a scream behind us, when we turned around there was a griver in the same building as us at the same time. "Holy shit" I muttered.
