the scorch trials
chapter thirteen

❛❛ i'm tired of running ❜❜

————————————————



It was chaos in the camp. People were running and screaming. Anton was screaming out Poe's name as he tried to run where Poe had been but Newt held the boy back. Newt pulled the crying boy away from the flames with Frypan's help. Newt wanted scream like Anton, he could feel the boy's loss and the devastation. He can feel it too.

It's that same loss he felt... when he lost Nick. That familiarity of despair, this time he cannot hide it, it's like he had lost everything, he just lost one thing that mattered the most for him, that one thing that gave him a reason to hope and the will to live.

"We have to go!" Frypan came running before he grabbed Anton's arm, "We need to go now!"

"No! Poe!" Anton cried out.

"He's gone! We have to go now!" Frypan yelled and began to pull the boy to run with him. "Let's go!"

He's gone, he said. Newt had a surge of denial, there was a moment he couldn't move, the world around him was crashing, as if with Poe's death have done that, and his will to live came crashing down with it. He was back into that mile-deep hollow.

Frypan had already taken Anton away meanwhile Newt stood at his ground as he stared where he last seen Poe and ignoring the chaos around him. He never moved until Minho came running. "Newt! Let's go! Let's go!" He yelled and grabbed Newt's arm to move.

That's when the focus of the chaos around him came at him. Fire, there was fire everywhere. The screaming were now loud to his ears. Newt started running after Minho and they were following Frypan and Anton.

The WCKD guards were now on the grounds and they started firing their launchers at everyone, one by one, the rebels fell as they got shocked by the launchers.

Frypan, Anton, Minho and Newt hid around a burning vehicle and took cover behind the barrels. "Where's Thomas?!" Frypan shouted. They peered over the barrels.

There was Vince, Teo and Harriet by a pick up truck and Vince was on the back of the truck trying to get the machine gun going. "Harriet! Ammo!" He began firing his shotgun at the WCKD guards. Teo was carrying a heavy small case and set it by the truck and Harriet quickly helped along.

"Teo!" Minho called, "Vince, Harriet!" He and the three boys went running to the truck.

"Get over here!" Teo shouted at them.

Minho, Newt, Anton and Frypan stayed low as they went running as the grenades missed them by inches. "How can we help?" Frypan asked.

"You need to cover us!" Harriet said. While Vince gave the rifle to Minho, Newt and Frypan grabbed one each for their own from the back of the truck, Anton was given a handgun by Harriet and they began firing at the guards without even hesitating or to wonder how the guns work. The guns merely had their safeties off and were loaded. Teo was helping Harriet with the ammo for the big gun.
