"No". It was Gally. My eyes widened. How was it possible for him to be here? He had stayed behind.

"Gally?" Thomas questioned taking some steps forward.

"Don't". Teresa said placing her hand on Thomas' shoulder as a sign for him to stop. "He's been stung".

Indeed. His eyes were black. His facial expression was a mix of anger, frustration, and sadness.

In his right hand, he was holding a gun. "We can't leave". His hand was lightly shaking.

In the meantime, Newt grabbed me by the waist pulling me beside him. My eyes were concentrated on Gally. What would he do next?

"We did it. Gally, we are out". Thomas said. "We're free". He continued placing his hands in front of himself.

"Free?" Gally continued lightly throwing his hands in the air. "You think we're free out there?" He paused. "No. No, there's no escape from this place". He said pointing a gun at us.

Everyone moved back. My eyes widened even more. I felt the grip I had on my bow tightened.

"Gally, listen to me. You're not thinking straight". Thomas spoke. "You're not. Now we can help you". He continued and I noticed Minho.

He was holding a spear. He did the same thing I did. Tighten the grip he had on the weapon. I wanted to grab an arrow from my back but I couldn't move an inch.

"Just put down the gun". Thomas said slowly and quietly.

"I belong to the Maze". Gally replied and his hand was shaking.

"Just put down the gun". Thomas mumbled.

"We all do". Gally continued and his eyes were getting watery.

"GALLY!"

"NO!"

A gunshot was heard. I looked in front of me and noticed Minho had thrown his spear straight into Gally's chest. Right on the heart.

The poor boy gasped for air. At that moment my eyes widened even more. What did just happen?

Everyone just watched him die. None of us moved. He slowly started falling on his knees.

More gasps for air. In any other case, I would reach out to help. But now I couldn't. Newt, who was next to me, grabbed my hand and held me tightly.

Gally who was now on the ground, couldn't gasp for more air. His lungs and heart were hurt.

"Woah. Thomas...". Chuck spoke from my right. Thomas turned to face him as I did. I noticed the boy wasn't okay.

He started groaning a little. "Chuck. Chuck". Thomas said catching him both falling to the ground.

That was where the gunshot landed.

I gasped. "Chuck!" I rushed to the boy letting go of Newt's hand.

"Oh no. Chuck? Chuck?" Newt mumbled.

"Shit". I said inspecting the boy's wound.

"Hey, look at me, look at me, look at me". Thomas said trying to keep the boy alive.

I pressed onto his wound trying to stop the bleeding.

"Chuck, I want you to look at me and try your best to concentrate on breathing all right?" I said and my eyes got a little watery. We had to save him.
