#8 His Favorite Song

They had checked the rest of us to check we're all WCKD property, which we were, and they hung us to the cieling in this weird circular thing.

"Great plan Thomas, 'just hear what the man has to say'. Really working out for us." Minho scolded sarcastically.

I growled at the thought of getting played like we just did.

"Oh shut up, Minho."

The blood rushing to my head was not a pleasant feeling at all.

"Maybe I can reach the rope..." he tried and so did a few others, but my core muscles were not working today.

"Enjoying the view?" Jorge's voice said, coming from the dark.

"Yeah," I said sarcastically, "beautiful! Couldn't have asked for better!" I hissed, kinda pissed about the situation. I glared at him as I slowly began to rotate away from him, pouting.

"The hell do you want?" Minho asked bluntly, ignoring my comment.

"That is the question. My men want to sell you back to WCKD. Life has taught them to think small. I'm never like that. Something tells me you're not either."

I was glaring at him the entire time.

"Is it the blood rushing through my head or is this shank not making any sense." Minho sassed.

"Tell me what you know about the Right Arm." Jorge said mysteriously, holding his cane infront of him.

"You said they were ghosts." Newt said.

"I happen to believe in ghosts." I had rolled my eyes.

"Especially when I hear them chattering amoung the air waves." He said, moving Thomas slightly with his cane and stopping him, then walking over to a lever, which didn't look good.

"What the hell are you on about?" I asked hesitantly.

He placed his hand around the lever, pointing with his cane.

"You tell me what you know and maybe we can make a deal."

"We don't know much." Thomas said, giving in.

He pushed the lever down and we fell a few feet before it caught us again.
My face had flushed red from the drop.

"Woah, uncalled for!" I half shouted at the guy.

"Woah! Woah! Woah! Okay okay okay, alright. They're hiding in the mountains and they attacked WCKD and got out a bunch of kids. That's it. That's all we know."

Jorge was about to say something else, till one of his men came in looking for him.

"Jorge. What's going on." Said the rugged man.

"Me and my new friends were just getting acquainted. We're done now."

"Hey wait. What.. you're not going to help us?" Thomas called.

"Don't worry, hermano. We'll get you back where you belong."

He then walked off, "hang tight." He said. I growled, waiting for the other guy to leave and saying,

"What an asshat."

I heard a few blunt chuckles, so that's alright.

We began thinking of a plan to get out. Which lead to Teresa being swung around all of us to get to the lever.

"Minho? Ready?"

"Yeah"

Minho swung her but missed.
