Amaurotic \\ The Maze Runner [Newt] [1]

Epilogue

My breath was heavy, as my chest heaved up and down harshly. It felt like I was hyperventalating. I couldn't see, but then again, I never could in the first place, so that was no surprise. I was disoriented, I didn't know where I was or what was to come of me.

Just by thinking those words, 'I didn't know where I was or what was to come of me', it made me think of my arrival to the Glade. The Gladers dragging me to the homestead, whilst they had a meeting in the Gathering, to think of what to do with me. It was scary, because I really didn't know what was gonna happen to me.

Coming back to reality, I tried to feel any sort of vibration, so I could see where I was. But, my feet weren't touching the ground. My fingers felt around, and I realized that I had been laying on a cold metal table... well, that explained a lot...

I try sitting up, to figure out where I was, but to no avail. I was unable to move, I felt traps tightening around my body, keeping me tied to the metal table I was laid on.

"What?" I spoke lightly. "W-What's happening?"

"I know you're scared, Avery." The voice of Ava Paige rung through her eardrums.

My name isn't Avery. Its Nova! I thought, in correction. Refusing to accept 'Avery' as my name.

Ava continued on, with a calm and menacing voice. "I know you don't want to go through this all over again."

And then, "But, its for your own good. Mother knows best." Ava gave a malicious smirk.

My dead eyes widened, as the sudden realizing relished deep within my pale cheeks. This was the vision that I had back in the deadheads when Ben attacked Thomas... so, it really was of the future...

Ava grabbed onto the bonds that were tying me to the metal table, as she pulled on them, and made them even tighter. Squeezing me, I mumbled at the pain of it.

Doctors then began to huddle around me, putting on their white gloves, getting ready to go to work.

"Wait!" I wailed, my breath ragged and quick. "Wait..."

Ava brought up her hand, which told the doctors to pause what they were doing. They listened, wisely.

I shook my head helplessly, "Please..." I begged. "...please don't do this." Tears streamed down the sides of my face, as I broke out into a stuttering sob.

And with my last effort, I cried out. "I-I don't want to forget... not again." My chest heaved even more. "Please, mother... don't make me forget."

I said my last, "Please." But I was crying so much, that it was barely even audible.

But Ava didn't listen, as she waved at the doctors. Telling them to proceed with orders.

The doctors huddled over me, over the metal table. As they got a needle ready, flicking it with their gloved fingers.

I shook my head, feeling scared as ever. And this time, I didn't hide it. "No... please." I tried once more, but it was no-use.

I laid my head back onto the table, and closed my dead eyes. Which caused even more tears to fall down the sides of my face.

And I painfully accepted my fate, as my head slowly went fuzzy. Falling into a dreamless sleep. All of my memories from the Maze, the Glade, the Gladers, and even Newt. Flushing away, no-longer existing. For now.

"I wanna welcome you back, Avery." Ava smiled caringly, holding her hands together. "Because you may think you have won, but trust me, we are far from done."

THE END

PHASE-TWO WILL COMMENCE VERY SOON.

---------
Well, that's it guys! :)

NOTE: Book 2 will NOT be in first-person. This is just for Epilogue purposes. Thanks for understanding.

Also, I got the line "you may thing you have won, but we are far from done." From the book "Two Dark Reins" by Kendare Blake, I believe. But in her book, its "you may have won, but we are far from done."

I thought it fit perfectly in here.

ALSO, I promise that I will make another chapter directing you all to book 2 "Sear", into the Scorch trials. When the book is up.

Thank you all for being patient with me, and I can't wait to see how Nova's story will unravel in book 2.

Thank you for all of the support, it means a ton. <3 <3

See you in book 2, xoxo <3
