Minho
Sweat trickled down my forehead, after 3 years I'd finally got used to my clothes sticking to my body, my feet feeling damp in the runner trainers I never took off. It was exhausting living like this, the maze was still a mystery and I was still tired. But I'd never tell anybody else that, not even Ben, the tall, caucasian boy with short, cropped hair, my running partner for as long as I can remember. He was a couple paces ahead, chugging down his water. The laced ivy clung to the walls, and swung free as if i'd rescued it when my sharp blade cut across the thick green strips. I could feel a cool breeze in air and the hard, cracked concrete beneath my shoes. It was slightly cloudy, but with desert like temperatures, but Alby still insisted the runners go out, just in case a variable in the code would appear. They somehow still had flickers of hope after all these years, but like all things, this hope was fading. All that could be heard was the in sync beat of worn sneakers hitting the ground.
"h....h...help me," A timid, whispered voice called out through the silence of the maze, but it was loud enough to stop us in our tracks. Curled up in a corner was the tiny silhouette of a figure cowering into a shadow.
Minho and Ben looked at each other, both of them shocked and not knowing quite how to respond. They shared a weird sympathy for this petite body, and deeming it safe enough to move, Minho cautiously crept towards the scared bundle.
"Can you move?"
Minho lifted up the persons light blonde hair to reveal a feminine, gorgeous, pale face.
"It's a girl..."
