IRIS POV

What happened? I groaned to myself as the daylight flooded into my eyes reminding me when I was in the box.

I just woke up from a dream, well it wasn't actually a dream, everything had already happened. I remembered everything.

Me, Thomas and Teresa being friends

The plan we made

And how I betrayed everyone.

I was supposed to meet Thomas but stopped by a room on the way

The room with all the antidotes, serums and needles

I snuck into the room, broke through the sensors and grabbed a antidote before guards broke down the door I had locked, I got caught

I reached for something in my pocket and took it out, a needle with a blue liquid in it aka the antidote

Traitor

I promised them

I was quickly shaken out of my thoughts and shoved the antidote back into my pocket as Jeff walked in

"Hey"

Jeff jumped when I spoke up and quickly stopped me from standing up "you're awake?!"

No shit Sherlock

"Yeah I guess so" I grumbled out

Usually I'd be super energetic, wondering about the others or hugging Jeff since its felt like years since I saw a human face

But for some reason I do none of that in fact I'm exhausted

"What happened?" I ask as Minho walks in

"You got injured in the maze and stung" Jeff explains

My eyes widen as my back straightens "am I being banished?!"

Minho lets out a chuckle and Jeff shakes his head "a girl came up with two antidotes"

"Oh cool tell her- wait?! A girl!"

I was now standing and had completely forgotten about remembering everything

"Albys also awake" Minho spoke

"What?!" My head was spinning so fast with all this news

Minho was about to say something else but I quickly told him to shut up, I cannot take any more information right now

I furrowed my brows and tried to calm myself down but couldn't

"Where's the girl?" I questioned

"I think she's talking to Thomas somewhere I don't know"

I rolled my eyes at Minho being so useless and simply decided to look for them myself

I walked around the glade until my eyes fell on them

I was excited at first but then remembered what I had done to Teresa and Thomas so it felt wrong to go talk to them

Luckily Newt came up to me so I didn't have to

"Iris! You okay?" Newt looked at me with a worried expression

"Yeah, I'm alright thanks Newt-" He interrupted by pulling me into a tight hug

A little taken aback at first I finally wrapped my arms around him back

Newt let go but not completely, his hands held my shoulders as he shook me slightly

"What were you bloody thinking, going into the maze?!"

I let out a small laugh

"I wanted to make some griever friends" I responded sarcastically and succeeded my mission as Newt laughed slightly too seeming a little less worried

Why was he worried though? I mean I get a little worried but this? Maybe I'm just overthinking

I was distracted by the maze doors, I just stared at them, thanks to my memories I know now it is for sure the way out

Its not whats behind the walls that scares me anymore

It's what is behind the maze.

That scares me
