Newt's POV

I just sat thinking about her. I should do something about it. I mean I was third in command which really didn't mean anything, but still. I lay there staring at the ceiling like I had been for the past however many days. I'll tell you one thing, it sucked ass, major ass, griever ass.

I had fallen asleep hours ago but it felt like nothing when I woke up from the dreamless sleep to someone shouting. I could feel the maze doors closing and wondered what could be so important that someone was shouting. 

"Alby!" I heard, "there not in the map room!" I didn't know who they were but if they were suppose to be in the map room, and were no where to be found that only meant one thing, a runner hadn't made it back. It was a possibility that it wasn't a runner, but then why were they no where to be found? No one else ever left the maze, no one would dare would they. They'd get themselves killed. I  thought back, were there any new runners? I didn't think so, I mean they would have had at least two and a half months of training, and I know the kid who came up then wasn't a runner he was a slopper or something like that. It had been at least six months before anyone had started a career as a runner, anyone who had been there that long knew what they were doing which meant it could really be anybody. It could be anybody in the maze really, if someone wanted to get themselves killed than the maze was a good option. If someone was plain old stupid it would be a good option. I guess it was just not a good option for me, but there weren't a whole lot of options for me.
