The Fighter 》 The Maze Runner

Thirty-Three

No one slept after that night. We were all terrified about what happened. The walls haven't closed, they still didn't. Grievers were able to go inside the Glade and managed to steal a Glader. We all know what happens, they die.

I held on to Chuck tightly till morning rose. I wanted him near me at all times, so I didn't go with Minho and Thomas in the Maze.  But, I wish I could see the look on Thomas' face when Minho showed him the Map room.

"You don't have to follow me, Elle." Chuck said.

I gave a mock hurt, "What? Can't a sister spend time with her brother? I'm appalled you don't want to spend time with me."

We both chuckled. Frypan ran over to us. He bent over to catch his breath, "Man, I need to lay off the bacon. Dan, you need to come with me."

He didn't even give me enough time to respond before grabbing my arm. "Where are we going?"

"She-bean 2 is awake."

"Isn't that a good thing?" Chuck asked.

"Not when she's throwing rocks at us."

I furrowed my eyebrows, "How did she even -"

We stopped at the Lookout Point to see the guys covering themselves with wooden boards. Chuck laughed while pointing at them, "Girls are awesome."

"Leave me alone!" I heard Teresa when I got closer.

Gally got pissed, "Hey! Throw one more of those things and I'm -" He stopped midway when she threw another rock at his head. I chuckled at that.

Teresa continued to throw more rocks, "Go away!"

I stopped next to Newt. "I don't think she likes us very much." He said as Winston covered us when more rocks got thrown.

I covered my head, "What gave you that idea?" I looked at at her. "We just wanna talk."

She kept throwing rocks, "I'm warning you!" How many rocks did this girl carry?

I covered my head again as Zart told us to take cover. "It's Danny! It's Danny!" I yelled. The rock throwing stopped and Teresa looked over the edge. "I'm going to come up. Don't throw anything until then."

Newt stood next to me, "You sure about this, love."

I nodded, "She wasn't going to listen to any of you and Thomas isn't here. She might stop if it was one of us."

Frypan came over, "Is a cat fight going to happen?"

I raised my eyebrow at him, "Seriously?" He just shrugged his shoulders before I started making my way up the ladder. "Ok, I'm coming." When I got to the top level, Teresa was glaring at me while holding a blade up. How did she manage to get that? I held my hands up. "Hey, hey, hey. I'm not going to hurt you."

"Where am I? What is this place? Why can't I remember anything?" She asked. More like demanded.

"Ok, this is the Glade. This is where we live. The memory thing, it happens to all of us. Every single person in here can't remember anything besides their name. That will come back to you eventually, just give it a day or two -"

"Teresa." She cut me off.

"What?"

"My name...is Teresa."

"Ok, Teresa. My name is Danielle. Or Dan or Danny. Do you remember me?" I hope she does. She shook her head. "What about Thomas?"

She shook her head again, "No. They kept saying I was muttering your names in my sleep. Who are you?"
