07 | Maze.

Eloise was on her own, running trying to look for any clues on what happened to Ben. She then heard someone shouting and she got scared.

"Eloise! Help!" It was Minho. She then started to run in the direction where she heard his voice "Minho?" She shouted back. She stopped running to catch her breath.

"Eloi-" They have found each other. He was carrying Alby, he was hurt. "What happened? Please don't tell me he."

"He was stung. It all happened so fast I didn't know what to do and I just." She cut him off. "Calm down, calm down Minho. It's not your fault." She said comforting him. "Come on get him up doors are gonna close soon."

Luckily they were close. They both carried him on one arm. "Walk faster."

"I'm trying. I am." They both were struggling as they heard rumbling. "Minho!" They were trying their hardest to get to the doors. "Just leave him there's no point!"

"We can't!" She didn't want to leave him but she had to, she let go of Alby. "Please, Eloise." She didn't wanna live with guilt. As she helped again they turned into a corner.

The doors. They were closing, right on them.

They kept grunting and shouting they weren't gonna make it. "Minho."

"Eloise keep going!"

"We're not going to make it." They saw all the gladers standing there shouting for them. "Come on you can do it!" Chuck shouted. They tried to speed up their pace but it wasn't helping. Everyone just kept shouting. The doors closing. They trying to get out.

"You gotta leave him!" But they both wouldn't let go of him. "They're right."

"No. No. Keep going don't give up." They were getting closer. Eloise had looked down slowly giving up. And then she heard different yelling and the doors closed.

She looked up to see Thomas, he had run into the maze, he was on the floor.

Eloise and Minho were on their knees. "Good job."

"You just killed yourself."

"Wait. Wh-What?" They both slightly fell into the sitting position.

"Are you stupid? He said you killed yourself."

"Oh come on. Not the ti-"

"I'm serious. ARE YOU STUPID?" He looked hurt. "What were you thinking? Running into the maze?! Gosh, you want to die huh?" She was furious and scared. She also was slighty sobbing.

"I'm confused.."

"The fuck? What do you mean.. you're confused? I'm confused about why you ran in here. No one survives a night in the maze. But oh looks like you would know something huh?" He got up and walked over to the alby. "Yeah."

"Yeah? Huh?" She got then scooted away. "What happened to him?"

"What does it look like?" Both Eloise and Minho said.

"He got stung." Minho had been sitting there and sat still. "What happened to his head?"

"I did what I had to do." He turned turn to Minho.

A loud Eerie screeching echoed in the distance. Minho then started to stand up.

"Uh, okay, alright, help me get him up." Minho and Eloise both looked at Thomas. "We got to go. The maze is already changing."

"Hey, Minho!" Eloise then got up and walked towards Minho. "We can't just leave him here."

Eloise sighed. "Minho you said that yourself." She agreed with Thomas. Ew. "And do what? You tell me.."
