I'm Safer With You -newtmas

Chapter 5

Newt's Pov:

"THOMAS?!" "THOMAS!" I scream several times as guns are being shot around me. I don't seem to worry about anything other than where Thomas is. I don't know why.

I round around screaming his name while shaking and breathing heavily. I felt as if the whole world had stopped I care so much for Thomas I don't know what I would do if something happened to him!

I continue to run around screaming Thomas's name. I've never felt more worried in my life. Not even when we tried to escape from the glade in the maze, or when we were in the scorch or while breaking into WICKED to save Minho.

"NEWT!" I hear a familiar voice yell. I look in that direction to see Thomas being dragged away by two people. I quickly run towards him but I before I make it, two guys grab me as well I struggle to get out of their reach and try kicking them. "THOMAS!" I scream and then one of the men sticks a needle in my arm and everything goes black.

*****

I wake up suddenly catching my breath roughly. I'm in some empty tiny room. I see that I'm all alone. I start banging at the door with my fists "Where is he?!!!!" "Where's Thomas?!" I yell. I look around trying to find a way out but it's only the steel door. I keep banging my fists angrily.

I started to feel claustrophobic. I continue to scream and yell. Where am I?! And where's Thomas?! Is he here with me?!

This feels like WICKED all over again. But it can't be WICKED. The entire city is gone.

After a while of the thinking the door opens and two annoyed  guys in suits grab me by the arms and drag me out of the room while I'm struggling to get out of their reach.

"What have you done to him?!!!" I yell. They don't reply and keep dragging me and I'm struggling even more. They were holding me so tightly it hurt. They walk with me and open a door to a larger room and throw me in very roughly. I sit up panting.

"Newt?" I hear a soft shaking voice say. "Thomas!" I sigh in relief. I quickly get up and sit next to him "Are you okay?!" "I was so worried!" I say quickly. "Yeah sort of, my leg just hurts even more cause they were rough with me." Thomas says.

I look at him worriedly and Thomas puts his hand on mine.

"Where even are we." Thomas mumbles in pain. "I don't know but I want to find out."
I say.
"This can't be WICKED." Thomas says.
"They must be the people that were here before us." I reply. "They seem to really hate us." Thomas says. "Yeah, I wonder if the others are okay and Minho." I say worriedly. "Me too." Thomas replies.

Thomas starts flinching in pain. I place my hand gently on his leg. "Can I see what's wrong with it?" I ask. "Yeah." Thomas says still in pain.

I lift the fabric of his pants up to see his leg that had been shot by WICKED when we were saving Minho and I see that his leg is now bloody and cut. I gasp.
"Is it bad?" Thomas asks. "Yes, what did they do to you." I ask.

"All I remember is, waking up to the guns shooting and I saw you were still sleeping so I got out to see what was going on and before I know it there are this guys trying to grab me so I punch them and they punch and fight back and I end up falling on a rock several times on that leg. Then they grabbed me and I felt so defeated that I couldn't move. That's when I saw you and screamed your name. Then they put the needle in me and I remember nothing after that. But the pain is way worse now so they must've dragged me on more rocks I don't know. It just hurts terribly." Thomas explains while his voice is shaking.

He looked scared. I didn't know what to do so I just pulled him to me and wrapped my arms around him. He puts his head on my shoulder.
"The only good part about this is knowing that you're okay." Thomas says. I smile at him. I realize that Thomas's leg is still bloody and the blood was still running.

I ripped off fabric from my shirt and wrapped it around his leg to stop the bleeding. Thomas looks at me with a soft face. "Thanks Newt." He says. "You're welcome." I reply and he pulls my arm towards him which makes me lean into him and he kisses me. It felt just as amazing as the first time.

I cup my hands on his face and we continue to kiss when the door opens and some scary looking guy in a uniform comes in and interrupts our kiss.

He closes the door and grabs the chair he brought with him and sits down in front of us. I pull Thomas towards me and hold him protectively.

"Alright simple, I'm Martin and I will be asking questions and you will answer them got it?" He says. Me and Thomas give no reply.

Martin didn't seem to notice and starts asking the questions. "Who are you?" "Where are you from?" "What are you doing here?." Me and Thomas look at each other and still sit in silence.

"Alright looks like I'm gonna have to do this the hard way." Martin says while pulling out a stun gun and zapping Thomas.

Thomas screams out. And I quickly grab him holding him tighter than ever. "Okay! Leave him alone!" "We'll answer your bloody questions." I yell angrily.

"Good now answer them." Martin says.
I take in a breath and say "I'm Newt and this is Thomas." "We where kids sent into a maze by WICKED and escaped it, but we are not on their side at all." "We came here because this is the safe haven from that bloody Scorch." I say all at once.

Martin starts laughing. And I get annoyed.
"This is no safe haven." Martin says while getting up and still laughing. "What do you mean?" Thomas says while shaking and I continue to hold him.

"Sure, it's safe from the scorch that you're right about." "But won't be long before another tsunami hits." "Plus there's lots of cranks here that WICKED brought a long time ago to experiment on but we kicked all the workers out of here." Martin says.

"Tsunami." I breath out. "Well that's just bloody great." I say.

"What is this place?!" "Why are we here?" "And where are the others?" Thomas says gaining back strength and I let go of him.

"We are people that grew up here and we live in this building that protects us from the tsunamis." "We were only able to capture you two and you are here cause we are curious." Martin says.

"Yeah well we answered enough questions can you let us go now?!" I say annoyed.

"Nope." "We need to run tests." Martin says calmly. And me and Thomas both flinch as four men with the same suits walk in.

Two of the men grab Thomas from my arms roughly. "LET HIM GO!" I scream at the top of my lungs. The other men grab me more roughly and I let out a little scream. They start walking and me and Thomas struggle. They lead us to a room where there are two beds five feet away from each other.

The guards holding me throw me roughly on one of the beds while grabbing my arms and strapping them down on the bed tightly. They strap down my legs as well and I try to move but I can't. I look to my left and see they did the same to Thomas and he looked so in pain because of his leg. I want to hug him forever but I can't.

He looks at me worriedly. And I word a "Everything will be okay." to him. But will
we really be okay? He just flinches as the men start working at the tables preparing for that they're about to do to us.

I felt worry rush through me as I heard them work. What are they gonna do to us?
