Catastrophe (Minho) - Maze Runner Fanfic

21-An Old Friend

The van was now speeding to try and shake off the crank that was holding onto the van. "Can't you shake her off?!" Thomas shouted and the driver swerved the car shaking off the crank. I looked back to see it stand up and give me the creepiest smile.

It wasn't far off that we saw a group of cranks getting out of the way for our car to pass. "Well these are a bunch of nice cranks." one of the bounty hunter said nervously. He spoke too soon.

The car seemed to be stuck. The car was running, but the car didn't seem to be moving. I could see the group of cranks start towards our car. Shuck.

"What did they do?!" the driver shouted scared and pressed on the gas pedal but the car didn't seem to be moving much.

The cranks were finally here. They started to bang on the windows laughing hysterically. This wasn't my first time experiencing a crank, but it was the first time that I had to deal with this huge amount of cranks. I was scared, but I've experienced things more scary than some cranks that were trying to kill us.

Then one crank broke a window. Soon arms started to reach inside the van. It just happened that the window that broke was the nearest to Thomas and I. I saw a crank reaching for Thomas and shot the crank in the head. Another window broke and was now reaching towards the others in the car. I felt someone grab my hair and pulled. My head jerked back to hit the wall of the car.

I randomly shot in the direction of the hand that was pulling my hair and eventually the hand let go. My heart was pounding with adrenaline and fear. The van finally was taking off again after I killed a few more cranks that tried to reach towards me.

I was catching my breath as we drove away and were free from the crank attack. "How the shuck are you going to die?" Thomas asked catching his breath as well.

"We just escaped an attack and that's the first thing out of your mouth." I said smiling in disbelief. He smirked back at me and had calmed down from the attack.

"It's just as I said. I'm going to die. Soon I won't be of any value to Ava and WICKED." I said smiling.

Before Thomas could speak, the van came to a stop. "We have to get out of the car. That's the only way they'll let us in." The bounty hunter said from the driver seat. I scanned to see if there were any cranks nearby and thankfully there were none. We all got out of the car and were greeted by a man I assumed was with the Right Arm.

"Is that you Lawrence?" a man asked as he came towards us. The bounty hunter answered back. "Who are these people?" the man asked looking at Thomas and I. His eyes widen as he saw me.

"Guessing from your facial expression seeing me you know who I am. This is Thomas and we both know Gally. We just want to know why you're kidnapping immune people. Are you not suppose to not be doing what WICKED does." I said looking at the man harshly.

"For a person like you, I thought you'd be a bit more smarter. We're nothing like WICKED. I'll let you see the boss just to prove so." the man said chuckling and led the way. As we entered their base, we were brought upstairs and through a few more doors. It was a pretty run down place.

As we arrived I was shocked. Gally was standing beside the boss of the Right Arm. "Gally?" I said softly and see him smile and nod to acknowledge my presence. I was told that he was killed during the time I was healing from the torture WICKED inflicted on me. "I thought you died!" I said loudly as my eyes started to get teary.

"Sorry for not being able to protect you at WICKED. Vince here is the boss of the Right Arm. He risked his life to come here. So show a little respect." he said directing his gaze to Thomas.
