𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐋𝐎𝐓𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐍𝐄𝐄𝐃𝐋𝐄𝐒, Charlotte was escorted back to her room for the night. She could normally fall asleep anywhere or anytime, but tonight she couldn't. There was no background noise of Eleanor's light snores, or Maddie grinding her teeth anymore, it was too quiet.
She hoped that her friends missed her as much as she missed them.
Thinking of what the safe place could be like, she smiled to her self as it could be in the middle of a forest, with dogs, she had always wanted to see a dog in person since she had dreamt about one.
Maybe it was near the sea and had palm trees just like her maze.
Thinking of her maze, she looked under her bunk to find all of her memorable items from her maze tucked away in the corner. She found her red cap that she was wearing when she came up in the crate, it had an unusual symbol on it that sort of looked like an N and a Y intertwined together, weird.
She unfolded the map she had drawn of her old home in her free time one day before her life became even worse than it

It was singed from an explosion that happened whilst she was escaping. She began to think of the horrible things that happened that night. The screams of her old friends begging and pleading her to come back for them, the thought of them brought tears to her eyes. She quickly blinked them away, not feeling as if she deserved to cry about them.
As she slowly began to drift of to sleep, a loud clanging noise echoed above her. She could've sworn she heard voices too, but was too tired to know if she was already asleep or not.
She woke up from yet another dreamless sleep, since she arrived here she had stopped dreaming.
Whilst she was sleeping, her left foot had somehow managed to squeeze through the tiny gap between the metal bars of her bunk that were supposed to stop her from falling off, but were entirely useless.
Still groggy and half asleep, she tried to yank her foot out quickly, bad idea.
CRACK.
She wasn't half asleep anymore. A searing pain rushed through her ankle as she muffled her scream into her pillow. Swiftly, she propped herself up on her elbows and grabbed her ankle gently.
Biting her lip to try and stop a sob leaving them, she tugged gently to free her foot. Luckily, it popped right out. Unluckily, it was definitely sprained or fractured.
Charlotte knew that she needed to get help for it, and quick. So she hobbled down the ladder of her bunk and limped all the way to the medical block.

"Just keep our heads down and try not to draw any attention to ourselves," Newt announced after Thomas told the Gladers about what he saw last night from the vents with Aris.
Thomas was not paying attention to Newt at all, he was looking through the glass and saw the girl who waved at him through it.
She wasn't smiling like she was yesterday, her face was blotched red and streaked with tears and she clutching he foot whilst using the wall for support. What happened? He felt his heart drop at the sight.
Suddenly, he stood up from the table slamming his hands on it. Then, he marched right over to the door with clenched fists and tried to shove past the men guarding it.
"Woah, hold on you weren't called."
"I'm just gonna be a second," he pleaded.
"This is a restricted area, kid," the guard snarled
"I just wanna see if she's okay, can you let me through?"
The man shoved his finger into Thomas' chest "Get your ass back in that chair," he said.
He pretended to walk away, then quickly lunged right at the guard. The man pushed him away.
"What's your problem man? What the hell, huh?" Thomas asked, pushing him harshly.
The man pushed him away in to the Gladers, using even more force this time.
"Why won't you let me see her?" he shouted.
Janson crept over to the scene and placed his hand on Thomas' shoulder "Hey, I thought we could trust each other, y'know we're all on the same team here."
"Are we?" he raised an eyebrow.
Janson looked him up and down before commanding, "Get them to their bunks."
Back in the room everyone looked at straight at Thomas.
"What the hell was that about?"
"You didn't really think they would let you through... Did you?" Newt asked, tilting his head slightly.
"Of course I didn't," that was a lie, he hoped they would let him through so he could talk to that girl, but atleast it helped his plan.
Taking a staff ID card out of he pocked he announced "I'm gonna find out what's on the other side of that door." He took a deep breath in, "These weirdos are hiding something, okay? These people are not what they seem."
This angered Newt. "No Thomas, you don't know that. These 'weirdos' rescued us from WICKED, they gave us clothes, somewhere to sleep, food, some of us haven't had that for a long time."
"But I-" Stuttered Thomas
"Some of us," he motioned to him and the other Gladers, "a lot longer than others."
Aris popped out from under a bunk. "Hey Thomas," he smiled.
"Who the shuck is this kid?"
"What's happening?"
"You got the card?" Aris nodded to Thomas.
"Yeah, let's go," he crawled under the bed and into the vent to follow Aris. "Just cover for me, I'll be back soon."
