First Female {The Maze Runner/Newt FanFiction}

Chapter 16

Forrest's POV,

It was now morning and I had a few bruises on my knuckles. I was waiting for brother to wake up.

"Hey" Teresa said. I looked over to see Tommy was awake. He sat up to look around.

"What the hell were you think?" Chuck asked immediately.

"What happened?" He asked confused.

"Gally's taking control. He said we had a choice, either join him or get banished to sundown with you" Newt explained.

"And you guys agreed to that?" He asked. Thomas looked at my hand.

"What happened to you?" He asked looking at it.

"Gally punches you, I teach him a lesion. I kicked him in is cock and power punch him in the face just because he's the reason you get stung" I shorted it.

"You should have seen her" Chuck added.

"Thanks" Thomas said guilty.

"Don't feel so guilty! Gally deserved it! Anything of my brother" I said.

"Gally has everyone convinced that you and Forrest are the reason this has happened" Teresa added some more information.

"Well he got half of that right" Thomas said. I gave him a nod.

"What are you talking about?" Minho asked with his head tilted.

"This place, it's not as we thought it was. It's not a prison, it's a-"

"test" I cut him off. He gave me a look too.

" I remember everything too. It all started when we were kids" I started off.

"They would give us these types of challenges. They were experimenting on us and people slowly disappearing, every month one after the other like clock worth" Thomas finished.

"Sent them up into the maze" Newt realised.

"Yeah but not all of us" Thomas started off again.

"What'd you mean?"

"Guys I'm one of them. The people who put you here, I worked with them. Guys I watched you for years, the inter time you've been gone I was on the other side. So were you" Thomas said pointing to Teresa.

"And you" He said pointing to me.

"Forrest, Teresa. We did this to them" Tom added.

"No. It can't be true" Teresa was shaking her head as a no then a tear came out of her eye.

"Unfortunately Teresa it is" I said sitting up.

"That's until I couldn't take the pain anymore after someone very close to my heart got taken from me. Thats when I joined the maze" I explained my side.

"It is, I saw it" Thomas said agreeing.

"Why would they send us up of we were with them?" Teresa asked confused.

"It doesn't matter"

"He's right" Newt spoke up.

"It doesn't matter, any of it. Cause the people we were before the maze, they don't excites anymore. These creatures took care of that. What does matter is who we are now and what we do right now. You went into the maze and found a way out!" Newt protested.

"Yeah but Alby would still be alive" Thomas retaliated.

"Maybe, but I know that if he were here he would be telling you the exact same thing 'pick your ass up and finished what you started' cause if we do nothing then that mean Alby died for nothing and I can't have that" Newt finished.

"Okay, okay but we gotta get through Gally first" Thomas realise. Lightbulb!

"I have an idea" I said with a smirk.

Now was my second banishing. We were token out of the pit. Teresa and I were held by out arms behind our backs. Thomas was still being carried, he was still 'asleep'. Gally was crossing out some names on the wall. When we reached the wooden poles, the two gladers that were carrying my brother just let him go and flop to the ground really hard.

"Brother!" I yelled yanking myself out of the Glader that was holding me. I ran to the 'sleeping' body in 'fear'. I held him in my arms. Newt and Minho blended into the crowd for our plan. I have I act and be close to him to give him the signal. Chuck went to grab some supplies.

"This is such a waste" Gally said putting his knife back.

"Gally, doesn't feel right" Winston interrupted.

"Hey, what if Thomas is right? He might able to lead us home" Jeff said.

"We are home, alright! I don't want to cross out anymore names off that wall" He said pointing to it.

"And you think banishing us would do anything?" Teresa asked.

"No" Gally said.

"Then why are you banishing us?" I asked standing up and letting go my brother.

"That's the thing, it's not a banishing. It's an offering" Gally said then a Glader grabbed me by arms and tied the rope that was on the pole around my wrist.

"Wha? Gally? What are you doing?" Teresa asked.

"You really I'm gonna let Thomas back into the maze after what he's done? Look around you! Look at our Glade! This is the only way and when the grievers get what they came here for! Everything goes back to the way it was!" Gally explained. Minho gave the sign to Newt. Newt gave the sign to Chuck who had his hands full. Chuck gave me and Teresa a sigh too. I tapped Thomas with my foot three times but good thing nobody noticed.

"Are you listening to this? Why are all you standing there? He's crazy!" Teresa argued.

"Gally is going insane! I don't know what you've been drinking but something isn't normal about you!" I spoke up too.

"Could you both shut up?" Gally asked.

"If you stay here the grievers will come back! Their gonna come back and are keep gonna come back until your all dead!" Teresa spoke up.

"Teresa is right! The grievers are the reason the Glade is destroyed! Not us! the grievers are the people you should hate! Not us!" I said taking her side.

"Shut up! Tie him up!" Gally ordered.

"Did you hear me! I said tie him up!" Gally ordered again. Two gladers did what they were told but doing the job Thomas elbows one in the ball sack and hits the other in the face with a spear from the ground. The rope was so loose I simply slip my hands out and punch the Glader who tied my hands in the face. The guys came over with weapons and attacked a few gladers. Chuck gave me a spear to work with. Thomas and I pointed our spears at Gally to stay back.

"Wow! You two really are alike" Gally said with sarcasm.

"Your full of surprises aren't ya!" Gally said.

"You don't have to come with us but we are leaving. Anyone who wants to come has a chance" Thomas spoke up.

"Don't listen to him, he's just scaring you" Gally said but it wasn't the truth.

"I'm not trying to scare you, some of us are already scared. Alright I'm scared but I rather risk my life out there then spending the rest of it in here. We don't belong here, yeah this place is not our home. We were put here, we were trapped here. We sat there with a choice, we can make it out of here. I know that!" Thomas spoke up.

"Alright! We've been here for three whole years! Imprisioned against our will! We are only just kids! We should be this sad! We now have a way out and you have a choice!" I spoke up too.

"You either stay here with the griever attacks every night! Or either come with us to stop this hell for once and for all" I said the options. Then people came up to join us.

"Gally it's over, just come with us" Thomas said putting down the spear, I did the same thing.

"Good luck against the grievers" He said. We took one last look at the Glade before taking the first steps. Then our freedom was only a few steps away.
