Girl In The Glade/ Newt fanfiction (The Maze Runner)

Part 26

Newt

Why do girls act like that? It was everything I could think off at the moment.

I was just wandering around the forest trying to find her when I heard someone yelling.

"I found her," the boy said. I couldn't recognize him by his voice.

I started jogging in the direction from where I had heard the voice. I found the right place sooner than I thought I was going to find it but I still was one of the last persons to get there.

It looked like the girl was protecting something. It was weird because I didn't see anything behind her. After a few moments, I understood that someone was behind her laying on the ground. Maybe she had fought someone? Or maybe attacked? Who is it?

As I was going to ask who was it, Alby spoke and asked the same question I wanted to ask.

"Who's that shank behind her?" he said.

I leaned to the side to look behind her but still couldn't make out who that was.

"Elle, is that you?" Minho's question completely shocked me.

I walked a little bit closer, fighting the urge to run. Now I could clearly understand that it was Elle. She looked horrible. I probably wouldn't even recognize her if she didn't have her long hair.

Elle was all covered with different kind of bruises. She had blood almost on every inch of her body. Her once perfect face was now all bloody and she had a black eye. She definitely had cried. I could see the traces that her tears had left on her blood-smeared face.

Her clothes were torn and dirty. She was curled in a ball but she was still looking at us. Her eyes glowed with hurt and sadness. Her shirt was almost completely ripped open shoving her back. She definitely didn't look good.

All the boys broke up in murmurs and conversations when they saw her.

Suddenly she started lightly shaking and her eyes were slowly closing. Then she fell to the ground saying one last thing. I almost didn't hear it because it was more like a whisper and her voice was very weak.

"Newt," she whispered.

I felt tears forming in my eyes. Why did she say my name? Was that her last thought? Wait! She isn't dead! Right? She can't die. No, no, no.

I started running in her direction and kneeled down right beside her.

The other girl seemed shocked and didn't know what to do so she didn't try to stop me.

"Elle, Elle," I said at first like a whisper but then started yelling.

She looked so weak and I was afraid that if I touch her I'm gonna break something.

"Elle," I yelled, "Elle, don't die! Elle!"

I was crying now. Even though she had cheated on me I still loved her. I needed her in my life.

Everyone else wasn't moving. It looked like they were too shocked to move.

Suddenly I remembered about the girl who had beat her up and sadness changed to indescribable anger. I jumped back to my feet shocking everyone even more with my sudden movement.

"You," I said and pointed to the girl, "How could you?"

I ran straight into her pushing her so she fell to the ground. Before I could do anything more four strong arms pulled me back. It was Alby and Minho.

I cursed and yelled at the girl trying to get away but it didn't matter how much I tried because it was impossible.

I gave up after a moment falling to the ground and looking deeply into the girl's eyes trying to kill her from inside at least.
