THOMAS POV:

I stopped running. "TERESA" I yelled. She didn't move. I ran up to her and grabbed her as a griever almost took her. Teresa held on to me for dear life. I could tell she had a smirk on her face. I think she did. She isn't shaking like a scared person would be. I think. She probably faked it though. How romantic, I'm GAY. We ran and split up. A griever grabbed Ben and ran off. I kept running. I set Teresa on her feet and grabbed her hand as I ran. We ran into the farm field and hid. We were with a few others and stayed silent. A griever grabbed Zart. "ZART" I yelled. We tried to grab him but the griever picked Zart up and threw him. We started running again. I was grabbed and let go of Teresa. "THOMAS" she yelled. I was thrown a couple feet and hit the ground. I blacked out for a few minutes. "THOMAS, WAKE UP" Newt yelled. I bolted awake and Minho picked me up. We ran to the council hall where everyone else was. Except Ben, Daron's Soulmate, Daron, and a few others.

The medjacks were checking on Zart who was doing okay. There was a few others. "I think they just have a simple concussion" said Jeff. "What" I asked. I threw up. "Was Thomas thrown by a griever" asked Clint. I tried to think. "I don't know. I just remember running to the doors" I said. "He was, I saw him" said Teresa. The medjacks looked me over. "He will be fine. He was only tossed unlike Bob who was thrown with full force. Poor shank doesn't seem to remember anything" said Jeff. A griever claw broke threw the roof. A few gladers screamed. It grabbed Chuck. A few boys grabbed him. I tried to but Newt stopped me. "You need to rest Tommy" said Newt. The griever realized it can't throw Chuck so instead it got the stinger out. Alby grabbed a stick and started to beat the griever. The griever drop Chuck and lost it's stinger. The griever left. "Thanks guys" said Chuck. The griever came back and grabbed Alby. It threw him and then grabbed the support beam. The ceiling fell and the grievers left. We waited for a minute. Nothing happened. We got up and went outside.

I was a little dizzy. Minho and Newt helped me walk. I felt like the world was moving all over the place. We made it outside and stood there. The glade was destroyed. Gally, Daron, his Soulmate, and a few others walked up to us from the distance. Gally looked pissed. He walked up and punched me. A few people held Gally back from me. "THIS IS ALL YOU THOMAS" Gally yelled. I covered my ears. They were sensitive. Minho and Newt helped hold Gally back. "CALM DOWN IT'S NOT THOMAS' FAULT" Winston yelled. "HE'S ONE OF THEM" Gally yelled. "THAT IS JUST A THEORY" Daron yelled. "HE'S ONE OF THEM AND THEY SENT HIM HERE TO DESTROY EVERYTHING. AND NOW HE HAS" Gally yelled. What if he's right? "LOOK AROUND. LOOK AT OUR GLADE" Gally yelled. "Thomas is with WCKD. I saw him when I was stung" said Ben. I grabbed the stinger from Chuck. "Thomas" asked Teresa. "I need to remember" I said. I took a deep breath and pushed the stinger into my leg. It burned. I screamed and everyone ran up to me. The world started to fade. I fell to the ground. "MEDJACKS GET THE CURE" Newt yelled. I blacked out in Minho and Newt's arms. My memories flashed before my eyes.
