The Maze Runner but without death (Survive #24)

Chapter 30

THOMAS POV:

I opened my eyes. Teresa was holding me in her arms. "Hey, you okay" she asked. I quickly got up but had a head ache. "What happened" I asked rubbing my eyes. "What the heck were you thinking" asked Chuck. "I had to know if Gally was right. How long was I out" I asked. "A couple hours" said Minho. "Gally has taken control. He said we have a choice. Either join him or be banished at sundown with you" said Newt. "And the others agreed to that" I asked. "Gally has everyone convinced you are the reason all this has happened" said Teresa. "Well he's been right so far" I said. "What" asked Newt. "Guys I'm one of them. I've watched you guys for years. The entire time you've been here, I was on the other side" I said. I looked at Teresa. "And so were you" I said. "What" asked Teresa. I started to cry. Minho and Newt probably hate me. I remember how Newt got his limp. He probably blames me because I put them here. "I saw it. Teresa we did this to them" I said in tears.

"No, that can't be true" said Teresa. "It is, I saw it" I said. "Why would they send us up if we were with them" asked Teresa. "It doesn't matter" I said. I cried in my hands. I wish Minho and Newt would yell at me and get it over with. "He's right. It doesn't matter, any of it" said Newt. I was still crying. "Thomas can you look at us" asked Minho. I looked up and wiped my eyes. "The people we were before the maze don't exist anymore. These creatures took care of that. Tommy you went into the maze and you found a way out. So bloody pick your ass up and finish what you started. Because if we do nothing then we will be stuck here and I can't have that. Not again" said Newt. I wiped my eyes again. "Okay, but we have to get threw Gally first" I said. "How is everyone doing by the way" I asked. "Mostly everyone is okay. A couple still have a concussion but you should all be fine. Everyone survived except" Newt started. "Ben, right" I asked. "Ya" said Minho.

It's sad that Ben died. I took a deep breath and looked at Minho and Newt. "Do you still love me" I asked. Minho and Newt looked at me confused. "Yes, we will always love you Thomas. The past is the past. We don't care about it" said Minho. I smiled. "Okay let's think of a plan" said Teresa who was clearly annoyed by our relationship. We came up with a plan and at sundown we Teresa and I were taken to the doors. I pretended to be asleep. The boys laid me on the ground. "This is such a waste" said Gally. "Gally" said Winston. Gally turned and looked at Winston. "It doesn't feel right man" said Winston. "Ya what if Thomas is right? Maybe he can lead us home" said Jeff. "We are home. Okay, I don't want to have to cross any more names off that wall" said Gally as he walked up to them. "How do you even know Ben is dead? The grievers didn't kill him" said Daron. "The grievers wouldn't of took Ben and destroyed the glade if these two never showed up" said Gally. "Do you really think banishing us is going to solve anything" asked Teresa. "This isn't a banishment. It's a offering" said Gally. "What" asked Teresa.

YOU SHOULD ALREADY KNOW THAT BEN IS STILL ALIVE. I WON'T SPOILER WHEN HE COMES BACK BUT NO ONE DIES IN THIS STORY. YOU SHOULD ALREADY KNOW THAT. I ONLY SAY THIS SO THERE IS NO CONFUSION.
