Girl of the Glade

Leaving The Glade...

Y/N's POV:
As I'm walking over to my Hut to grab some clean clothes, seeing as mine are covered in mud from the Gardens, I hear someone screaming out my name. I quickly spin around on the balls of my feet to see Minho rushing towards me from the Infirmary.
"Oh god, what's Tommy told him now?" I think quietly to myself, making sure Thomas can't hear me.
As Minho reaches me, he leans over, placing his hands on his knees and breathing heavily. He looks up at me, he seems really happy about something. I stand with one knee bend, my hand gently placed on my hip.
"So Minho, What is so important that your actually out of breath for the first time in three years?" I ask him, laughing. He stares up at me, he stands up straight and gently places his hand on my right shoulder. I look up at him, either something's very wrong indeed or he has very good news for me.
"Can we talk somewhere, ya know? More private than in the middle of the Glade?" He asks me. Something is definitely up, he didn't even call me sis or little sis.
"Um... sure. Follow me..." I say quietly, making sure he can hear the worried tone to my voice. He follows behind me, whistling as we walk towards my Hut.

As we walk into the Hut, Minho leans against the wall whilst I grab a clean set of clothes before placing them onto my bed.
"Ok, so what's this all about Minho?" I ask him, he places a fist over his closed mouth and coughs, as if he's getting ready to give me a massive, inspirational speech.
"Well, Thomas told me something about you, about us. The thing is Y/N... we're not actually related, at all. I'm not your older brother. You were created, inside a test tube, along with many other people who are all in different Mazes like this one across the world..." He tells me, a small smile spread across his face, I look at him in confusion.
"Why is he smiling about that?" I think to myself, I can sense that Thomas is too busy so I know he can't hear me.
"Why are you so happy about that? Do you not like me or something?" I ask him, my eyes filling with salty tears. He looks at me in shock, walking over to me and gently placing his hands on my shoulders.
"It's not that at all, Y/N! It's just..." He stops abruptly, thinking of what to say next, except he doesn't say anything at all. He leans his forehead against mine, holding my chin up with his hand. I become shocked as he kisses me gently on the lips, and I shock myself as I kiss him back, cupping his warm face inside my hands. After a few moments, I push him away, grabbing the clean clothes and satchel off my bed and run. I run out of my Hut, slamming the door shut behind me and I run towards mine and Newt's tree.
"Why did he do that? And why did I let him?! Ugh, I'm so stupid! How am I supposed to tell Newt?!" I think to myself, before climbing up into the tree and changing into my clean clothes.

I sit and wait in the tree until it's time for Thomas and Teresa's 'Banishment'. I begin walking over to the doors of the Maze, my leather bag across my shoulder, the bag resting against my right hip. It's filled with supplies for when we leave the Glade and venture out into the Maze. I sadly have to leave my beloved guitar behind inside the Glade, but I don't mind, I don't need my guitar to be able to sing.
As I reach the doors of the Maze, Newt runs over to me and kisses me passionately, wrapping his arms around my waist and holding me tight. I kiss him back, running my hands through his soft, messy hair as he lifts my feet of the ground and spins me around, still kissing me. After a few moments, we stop, breathless.
"Geez Newt, what was all that about?" I ask him, laughing as he interlocks his fingers win mine.
"Well, I just wanted to kiss you now, ya know? In case anything happens inside the Maze..." He begins, a small tear runs down his cheek, which I wipe away and kiss him on the same cheek.
"Hey... nothing is going to happen, not to me, not to you, ok?" I tell him, my arms still around his neck and his are still gently placed around my waist. He nods in return, a smile spreading across his face.
We turn and watch as Gally and a few of the other Glader's drag Thomas and Teresa towards the Maze, pushing them against large wooden pillars that are in front of the Doors. Then I realise something, this isn't a banishment.
"Gally! What are you doing!?" I shout, walking over to him, my hands gripping the handles of the daggers.
"What does it look like, Y/N! This isn't just an ordinary Banishment, it's a Sacrificing! We can't let Thomas back into the Maze, not after all that happened!" He spits at me, the grip around my daggers tightening. I open my mouth to shout at Gally, to tell him to stop, but Teresa beats me to it as one of the other Glader's is trying her arms to the pole.
"They'll still come back, Gally! Sacrificing us to the Grievers won't solve anything, they won't stop until your all dead!" Teresa shouts, twisting and struggling in the ropes around her hands.
"I know that, but maybe with you two gone, we'll finally have some peace around here once again!" Gally shouts, I turn to see Newt, he nods at me. I pull my daggers out of my belt and kick Gally down to the floor, Frypan cuts Thomas and Teresa ropes, freeing them from the large pillar. Chuck runs over with all the supplies, throwing bags to Thomas, Teresa, Minho, Frypan and Newt. As Gally scrambles back up to the ground, Minho places his sword onto his shoulder, gesturing at him to stay back as we all stand in the door way of the Maze.
"Wow, some friends you are, huh..." Gally begins, shouting at us, "So that's it then, your just going to leave?!"
"We don't belong here Gally, this isn't our home! We were put here, by the Creators! I would rather die trying to leave this place than live here in regret of not trying! Anyone else who wants to come with us, it's your last chance to leave!" I shout, my voice echoing through the Glade as it bounces off the Maze's walls.
At least 30 other Glader's leave the safety of the grass and stand with us on the cold stone floor of the Maze.
"Fine then, Y/N! Go! You'll only die out there anyways!" He spits at me, before turning around to face the Glade. As the others Glader's begin to enter the Maze,I walk up to Gally, grabbing his by the shoulder and turning him around to face me. My eyes glowing red and my claws become visible.
"Also, one more thing..." I spit at him, swinging my arm and landing a punch on his right cheek, knocking him down to the floor. His face now has cuts from my claws rather than a red mark from my hand. I purposely spit onto his face and bend down next to him, my face right up in his.
"That is for treating everyone like pieces of klunk, and this..." I raise my foot and kick him hard in his groin. He curls up into a ball, screaming like a girl in pain. I hear all of the other Glader's whooping and laughing behind me, whilst the others, who decided to side with Gally, are staring at me in shock.
"That... was for Alby!" I shout at him, before turning around and following the other Glader's into the Maze. We begin running, all the Glader's congratulating me on standing up to Gally, including Teresa. I laugh loudly, which I haven't done in ages. A large smile spreads across my face, reaching from ear to ear.
We're finally leaving, once and for all.

Hey Guys!
Hope you enjoyed this chapter! I'm sorry for any readers who actually like Gally, but I felt that Y/N had to punish him for how he treated her and the other Glader's. Plus, it kinda was his fault that Alby died so in my opinion, he deserved what Y/N gave him.
Anyways, sorry that this chapter is so long, the next chapter will be shorter but it will be spilt into two parts. They won't have the same name though, cause I thought that would sound weird! That should be coming out either later today or tomorrow.
Also - I'm really sorry for the late updates. I'm still of school sick so I've been sleeping through most of the day again. Also, I'm sorry that this chapter is so bad - I promise the next one will be better!
I have decided to make these books into a series, so once I have finished this one, there will be a second book based on the Scorch Trials! However, I will work on my Peter Pan x Reader book first, but I will write them both at the same time!
See ya guys later!
