The Gladers and the Icers were certain they can't stay in the entrance room full of Cranks, neither they can leave and keep moving. The lightning storm was still above them and they also need more supplies for more of their journey. Hopefully they had finally found the Right Arm.
The girl lead the group away from the entrance room, they followed the girl down a corridor, she stopped at the end and pulled the door open. Inside was a larger room, it reminded Thomas and Minho back at the abandoned mall, only this time there were people, alive and well. There was lightings supported by a generator, some had bonfire within a barrel for light. The people were staring at the group, all of them curious and stun.
"Think this is the Right Arm?" Anton whispered to Poe.
Poe shrugged, "I don't know. I hope so" if this is the Right Arm, he'd be disappointed. It certainly didn't feel like they had found the Right Arm. This place could be something else.
"Come on, keep up!" The girl said, she was walking ahead, "Jorge wants to meet you" she was walking toward the staircase that leads to the upper floor. The group kept in a line as they walked up the stairs. On the upper floor were more people but most of them were men and some of them were armed.
Thomas was closest to the girl, "Who's Jorge?"
The girl glanced back at Thomas, "You'll see" she shifted her glance back to the front. Continued to lead them down the larger corridor towards the end, "No one's come out of the Scorch in a long time. You just got him curious... and me too"
Poe noticed the men behind him, they were being surrounded, these men were acting like guards, preparing to draw their weapons or watching over the group in case they run off. Poe suddenly had a terrible feeling about this.
Newt took a glance back over his shoulder, looking at Poe for a second, he eyed over Poe's head. The man behind Poe sneered, making him to feel uncomfortable. Anton attempted to look back as well but Poe grabbed the boy's shoulder to keep his gaze at the front. This certainly isn't the Right Arm, Poe thought.
"Anyone else starting to get a bad feeling about this place?" Newt murmured softly.
The girl that were guiding them went to another flight of stairs. Thomas turned at the group, "Let's just hear him out. See what he has to say"
There was Teo beside Poe, "I don't think we'll get out of this place now" Teo may be right, it was too late to go back now since they're being surrounded.
