I had woken the next day by someone shaking me. I opened my eyes and saw Thomas I rubbed my eyes again then it was just Newt. I sighed I got up and my head aced. I forgot about my wrist and looked at them they seemed better. I looked up at Newt tiredly.
"What do you need Newt?" I asked tired and stretching my arms up.
"Alby likes for Newbies to have jobs so I want you to pick one that you would like" he said and I got up from my hammock I hated feeling the cold grass against my feet. I instantly got cold. I rubbed my arms. Newt showed me around. I still felt a little drunk but, it was just a small bit.
It was still a little dark but, the sky got lighter once he went through all the Jobs I hadn't really got one in mind.
"Nothing really caught my eye do you have any suggestions?" I asked since I was clueless.
"Um well I was thinking you could cook with Frypan, since it is almost the most calming" he said I rose my eyebrows getting him with this one.
"Are you saying that because I'm a girl?" I said acting annoyed and crossed my arms over my chest his face changed and he started to stutter and I almost broke out laughing before I said something.
"Newt! Newt! Newt! I'm just kidding!" I said putting my hand on his shoulder. He had a shocked face and I broke out laughing.
"You should have seen your face!" I laughed.
"Your still bloody drunk aren't you or you have a hangover at least" he said smiling a bit. I stopped laughing a bit and I shook my head.
"You have to be at least a little bit" he said.
"I don't know I feel light headed a bit but, I'll let you know about the Jobs" I said he nodded and lead me back to the hammocks I saw Thomas still asleep and when Newt went away I looked at Thomas rough hands
,his hair his arms, and that's how I went to sleep.

I was running away from something that I couldn't even describe. I was in the Maze running like I was a Runner, but I was running away. I didn't know where to go, but I cut the wrong corner and ended up at a dead end. Newt said there was something called Grivers in here and that's what I suspected it was. It was horrible looking. I backed against the wall of the dead end and it screamed at me and I tried to think of an escape. It ragged it's body at me I ran towards it and slide underneath and it caught me it through me against the wall. I moaned at the pain and it came at me I screamed and closed my eyes.

I shot back into reality and Thomas was next to me. I was sitting up and I was breathing heavy I hugged him. Tears streamed down my face. I was scared. I worried he didn't go on his trip today because he might have heard me scream or anything like that. It was definitely a nightmare.
"Hey hey shhh shhh" he said calmly and rubbed my back I started to breath normally and the tears came to a stop for now. I didn't let go.
"Y- you didn't m- miss your t- trip for me did you?" I sniffed. He let go and showed me his shirt. It was all sweaty.
"Nope, but when I heard you were screaming I ran fast and fast till I could get to you." he said and placed a hand on my cheek rubbing it with his thumb. I felt my face get red. I noticed almost all the boys came over to me and looked at me worried, but Gally looked like he could kill me if there weren't rules.
"You guys can go back to what you were doing sorry about this" I said gesturing to myself. Some of them laughed and left. Newt was still there and I looked at Thomas. He smiled at me and wiped some of the tears.
"So what did you find out?" I asked Thomas. He sighed.
"We didn't get to far because it took so long to get there, but we did find something that we'll look at tomorrow." I nodded and hugged him again. I let go of the hug and I stood up. Newt was still there.
"I'm sorry about this morning I really am I -" I was cut off by Newt hugging me.
"It's alright" he said and let go. I smiled at him and I actually had a Job in mind I think I would be really good at it.
"So what drama actually happened this morning?" Thomas asked standing up with us.
"Well I woke Y/n up this morning before you left and was talkin' to her about Jobs that she would like. She asked for me to suggest something and it was the Cooks. She said are you saying that because I'm a girl and she started laughing and it was just a joke so ya." He said. I giggled a little bit at it and he playfully glared at me.
"Hey I actually have a Job in mind!" I said. Newt and Thomas looked at me.
"I think I want to be a Med- Jack" I said they both didn't smile at me. I have a confused face.

"You know there's a lot of blood in this Job right?" Thomas said I nodded.
"Okay then let's go talk to Clint he's the keeper of the Med- Jacks" Newt said.
"There's also Jeff with him, but that's it. So it wouldn't be bad to have another Med- Jack" Thomas said placing a hand on my shoulder. I smiled at them I was getting excited for everyone.
"Well then let's go!" I said swinging my arms around both of there necks and walking towards where the Med- Jacks are. I let go of there necks as we were walking.
"Sorry about that I was excited" I said looking at my wrist which were getting better.
"Your okay I get the feeling when your excited about something." Thomas said. I looked at him and he looked back and smiled. I really like him I hope he likes me back, but then I started to have thougts. Why should he he's just concerned about me that's all. My smile faded and we go to the Med- Jacks. We went inside and we saw Clint and Jeff making stuff I guess. Probably medicine or painkillers.
"Hey Clint um we have something to ask you" Newt said and that got Clint's attention and so did Jeff. They looked at me and gave a soft smile and then looked back and Newt.
"Yes Newt what do you need?" Clint asked.
"Well Y/n here wants to help out and join this Job!" Newt said gesturing to me. I smiled and looked about them. They looked shocked and I looked away.
"We would love to have another Med-Jack!" Jeff said. I looked up and smiled.
"Thank you!" I said excited. I heard one of the boys leave, but I think one of them was still here. I looked over and saw Thomas he was still there. He looked me in the eyes.
"Be careful, okay?" He said taking my hands softly.
"I will I promise." I said then huged him softly he let go and left looking at me. I turned around and went up to Clint and Jeff.
"Okay well we'll start with the medicine..."
Soon they showed me everything about patching up stitches, putting pressure of open wounds, even someone getting stung, The process of the changing. They've only see a few people who have been through the changing. They seem to saw the same thing as the next and the next. They start to remember everything... But they soon start to die, but they have found a cure for it. With my help of course. If there wasn't a cure some of them would get lucky and live. Like Gally. We looked through the drawers and they had forgotten about this blue liquid that one of the Gladers had with them when they came up in the box they had forgotten all about it even when someone was going to the changing. That was the cure we were hoping. We also had a spare syringe in the drawers too. Just in case we need to draw someone's blood.

"Hey I'm going to get some water we ran out I'm going to go get some, okay?"
I said and they nodded I went outside and it was still bright out, but the sun was almost to the point were it was setting. I got one of the buckets from the Gardens. I picked it up and headed into The Deadheads. I was next to the Creek and I filled enough water in it. I headed back I was just about out of The Deadheads until I heard a twig snap and I shot around. I saw something standing about five feet away from me. I noticed it was Ben. He had black vains up his neck. I stepped back and I was soon in the Garden as I still watched Ben. I set the bucket down and he charged at me I ran as fast at I could, but I wasn't fast enough.
