"Why? Why did he bloody do it?" Newt shouts punching the wall. I grab his arm with one hand and place the other on his cheek, making him look at me.
"Shh, Newtie, it's okay. I was out there, I survived and look at me, I'm as weak as klunk." I say with a reassuring smile.
"No, no, no. (Y/N) don't say that. I was wrong to tell you to stop training. You are strong and that's what I was telling myself when you were trapped out there." He says placing his hand over mine.
"Which means that they will definitely survive. Maybe even kill a Griever or two." I say trying to make him smile. Which he does.
"Listen, (Y/N), you need sleep." He says, kissing my cheek.
"Nope."
"Too late." Gally says, slinging me over his shoulder. Again.
"Goddammit Gally!" I protest.
He carries me to my room, places me on my bed, then leaves and guards the door. I reluctantly curl up and fall asleep.

"Newt!" I shout. Where did he go? I continue to run through the Maze. Searching every twist and bend. "Newt, come back!" Why had he left me? Did I do something wrong?
Suddenly, I hear an all too familiar mechanical creature not far ahead. I peak around the corner and I see three of them surrounding something. I try to focus and notice that it's Newt.
"NEWT!" I scream. I try to run to him, but an invisible wall blocks my path. I smash on it, hoping it will shatter. Newt doesn't notice me and neither do the Grievers. I watch on in horror as the Grievers close in on him and start ripping him to pieces. His blood curdling scream fills the air and I fall to the floor.
The Grievers seperate and all that is left is the colour of his blood splattered across the pavement.
"You shouldn't be here (Y/N)!" An unfamiliar voice calls out. "Why did you go up in the box? We told you not to." I search for the man speaking to me, but I'm alone. "You just had to go and be with your precious little boyfriend, didn't you? What, did you think you could protect him? Save him? You're both weak!"
"No! Shut up! Shut up!" I yell.
"He's gone, (Y/N), forever! And it's all your fault!" The voice starts laughing maniacally.
"No," I clutch my hands to my ears and fall to the floor, murmuring to myself. Tears running rapidly down my cheeks. "No, it's not true, he's not gone, it's not my fault!"
"You should've listened to us, (Y/N), WICKED is good, remember?"

I shoot up in a cold sweat, dry tears on my cheeks. Gally and Newt are by my side. A mix of fear, terror and concern on their faces. I focus on Newt. He didn't sleep, I think to myself, he looks dreadful... still cute though. I begin to cry again and pull him into a tight embrace.
"I thought I lost you."
"Shhh, (Y/N), it's okay, I'm here." He says running his hand across my back. "You will never lose me." After a few minutes we pull away from each other. I give Gally a hug also, then the three of us headed for the West Door.
The doors were open and all the Gladers were waiting around in anticipation. Gally and I stop a few metres away and Newt keeps going till he was right by the opening. We watch as he paces in frustration. Chuck walks up to me, grabs my arm and pulls me closer to the door. 
"Where are they?" He asks. I ruffle his hair.
"Don't worry Chucky, they'll be here. I promise." I smile reassuringly and look back into the Maze. Please be.

I notice movement up ahead by one of the corners. The boys. I leave Chucks side and run into the Maze, followed closely behind by Newt.
"What happened? How in the bloody-"
"We'll tell you later," Thomas cut him off. "We have to save Alby."
"Wait, he's alive?" I ask.
"Just come here." Thomas moved to the right and looked up at the ivy covered wall. I followed his gaze and saw Alby suspended above by the ivy.
"Is he alive?" I asked, worried.
"I don't know. Was when I left him up there."
"When you left him?" Newt shook his head. "You and Minho get your butts inside, get yourselves checked by the Medjacks. You look bloody awful. I want the whole story when they've finished and you're rested up." I turned and watched Minho pull Thomas towards the Homestead. I helped get Alby down and started carrying him inside.
"Here, I'll carry him." Newt says, going to get him off my back, but I shrugged off his hands.
"I got it." And I continued to the Medjacks.
