Chapter Two
Softcore
"Are we too young for this?"━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
After everyone but Teresa had been cleared to leave the lab, they were led to a large cafeteria with tables full of kids who looked around their age. The group sat at an empty table while they talked amongst each other, eating the food that had been waiting for them. Minho informed the group that Thomas had been taken away to talk with Janson.
Olivia sat in silence as she thought about her past once again, only this time she knew there was a possibility of her actually getting to remember it. Her thoughts were cut off when Minho got up from next to her and jogged towards the doors. "Hey Thomas!"
"Hey, Minho. What's going on?" Thomas walked towards the boy. "We weren't the only maze." Minho gestured for him to follow. Once they stood in front of the table, Minho let Thomas sit next to Olivia as he moved to sit beside Newt.
The blonde girl smiled at the boy before turning to pay attention to a boy they had just met. "There was this big, loud explosion. Then these guys came out of no where. Started shooting up the place." He looked back and forth between the group. Olivia figured he was talking about his experience while he escaped from his maze. "It was intense." One of his friends added. "They pulled us out the maze and brought us here."
"What about the rest?" Newt asked. The boy tilted his head to show he didn't understand what he meant. "The other people left behind in the maze. What happened to them?" The blonde boy explained. "I don't know." The boy shrugged. "I guess wicked still has 'em."
Olivia and Thomas turned to each other, both thinking about the boys who chose to stay behind with Gally. "How long have you guys been here?" Newt asked curiously. "Not long, just a day or two. That kid over there," The boy turned to look at another boy that had his head down, sitting away from everybody. "He's been here the longest. Almost a week."
Everyone observed the lone boy, only turning back in front of them when the boy at the end of the table spoke up. "His maze was nothing but girls." Olivia and Thomas kept their eyes on the boy with his hood over his head. "Really?" Minho raised his eyebrows. "Some guys have all the luck."
"Good evening gentlemen, ladies." Janson walked into the cafeteria, causing everyone to turn their heads towards him. "You all know how this works. If you hear your name called, please rise and in orderly fashion and join my colleagues behind me where they will escort you to the eastern wing. Your new lives are about to begin." Janson sounded bored as he explained.
Olivia felt Thomas's hand take a hold of hers as Janson began to list names. "Connor, Evelyn, Justin, Peter, Allison, Squiggy—Alright, settle down." Janson cut himself off when people began to laugh. "Franklyn and Abigail."
