"What the hell are you doing?" Elizabeth snapped at him in anger. Why the hell would he do that? He's only just got here and now he's basically dead, all because he couldn't resist running into the maze to satisfy his own curiosity.

Thomas got up from the ground, as did Elizabeth who limped towards him quicker than he could register.

"Do you think this is some kind of joke? Just a fun little game we all like to play, run around in the maze for a little bit, lets see who can get out first! This is real shit Greenie, you can't just launch yourself into the maze because you want to see what's inside!"

"I- I thought I could help." He protested.

Thomas didn't understand why she was so angry. He couldn't just leave her in here, clearly injured and probably being followed by whatever a griever is.

"Help!? You think killing yourself is helping us!"

"What? I don't get it, why are you so mad?" Thomas stuttered.

Elizabeth lowered her voice so Minho couldn't hear, "You can't just rock up with a matching fucking bracelet with my initial carved into it, tell me you've been seeing me in your dreams, follow me into the maze and then expect me to act like everything is just dandy."

Thomas was stunned, unsure of what to reply.

"She's right, shuckface. Your as good as dead. All of us are."

Elizabeth turned and took a seat next to Minho again, cradling her knee. She was furious at Thomas and for some reason, terrified at the idea of him dying.

"You broke your ankle or something?" Minho asked, ignoring Thomas' presence.

"No, my knee again." Elizabeth replied.

"What happened to him?" Thomas interrupted, crouching down beside Alby.

"What does it look like? He got stung." Minho snapped

"What happened to his head?" Thomas asked.

"I did what I had to do." Minho answered cryptically, he and Elizabeth sharing a look.

Thomas studied the pair, wondering what had happened for Minho to resort to knocking Alby out. Newt had said Ben had attacked Elizabeth just like he had attacked him, did Alby do the same?

A griever screeched close by and the three of them looked up. Minho and Elizabeth both got up and the maze rumbled again, their backs to Thomas as they began to ponder their next move.

"Help me get him up." Thomas said to the pair of them.

"We gotta go, the maze is already changing." Minho said to Elizabeth, ignoring Thomas.

"Hey, guys!" Thomas exclaimed frustrated, "We can't just leave him here."

Minho and Elizabeth shared a look of uncertainty before the blonde girl stepped forward to help Thomas lift Alby up.

"You helping or going?" Elizabeth asked Minho, knowing he wouldn't leave her.

Minho stepped forward, telling Elizabeth to move so he could take her place due to her injured knee.

"How considerate of you." She remarked.

They began to make their way through the maze, Elizabeth leading the way and watching for any grievers.

"Wait, wait..." Minho said after they had been walking for about ten minutes, "Just sit him down. Sit him down."

The two boys lowered Alby to the ground, Elizabeth sat and held a hand out to her knee which was throbbing painfully.
