Thomas P.O.V.

            Back in time?  I think to myself, is that even possible? How in the shucking world could I have gone back in time when there isn’t even a cure for the Flare?

I was going to say something and ask Teresa but then I remembered; she probably doesn’t even remember being in the Maze. Was I the only one that went back in time? If I wasn’t I was desperate to find out who else went back with me.

When I stopped thinking and looked around, the worker and Teresa just gave me puzzled looks. “Are you okay Tom?” Teresa asked, worry flooding her face

 “Yeah”, besides the fact that I just went back in time and am now stuck in this shuck hole again.

“Hey James can you leave us for a bit, I just want to talk to Thomas alone for a bit”, Teresa asked the worker

“Sure”, and then he left.

**        **

It was just Teresa and I in the room now and I walk over to the seat and shuffle awkwardly in it. I start to type away at the keyboard, moving little pieces here and there, typing in codes, and the whole room was silent except for the clicking and clacking of the keyboard. I turn to look at Teresa and she is just staring at me with her big eyes, not looking away for even a second, keeping eye contact.

“What?” I ask kind of getting sick of her staring; every time I look at her it just reminds me of what she did to me in the Scorch, I don’t think I could ever get over that. Ever. After a few more seconds of silence, she speaks up, “Why are you acting all strange and weird. What happened to you?” I could tell by her voice she was concerned, “I-“, I stop in midsentence, I can’t let her know about what’s happening, can I?

 “I’m tired”, I reply simply, she then looks at me and looks me up and down, then goes to working on the Maze, we then sit there in silence for the next few hours of working.

7 Days Later

Minho P.O.V.

            What in the shucking world is going on here, where am I; this is not my shucking room.  I sit up from my bed and see Newt, Chuck, Alby, Gally, Frypan and a few others in the room all on bunk beds. I then sit there for a second wondering where Thomas is. Probably going off with Brenda doing who knows what, then someone groans and they raise from the bed, Newt just woke up, what time is it?  Newt then speaks groggily, “Hey, Minho, Morning”, slurring his words as he speaks, “Hey Newt...”

 “Where are we?” he then looks at me like I’m stupid or something, “Um the WICKED place remember, we’re about to be put into the Trials, what the heck has happened to you, did you get concussed or something”, I was then more confused than ever, Wait I went back in time? Is that even possible?  I then stop thinking and see everyone starting to wake up, Chuck is awake too and I wonder if he went back in time to seeing as he was with me at the Paradise, also with Thomas, Thomas...where is he?  “Morning Minho”, his face still smiling and chubbier than ever, “Hey Chuck”, I then drop my voice into a whisper, “Why aren’t we in the Paradise?”

 “I don’t know”, he replies still trying to hold up his smile, I don’t think either of us want to go through that shuck maze again if Newt was right about us being in WICKED, face those same shuck grievers, and face the same truth over again. If Chuck and I are here that must mean Thomas should be with us as well.

“Want to get breakfast?” Chuck asks after a few seconds of silence

“Yeah”, Newt follows as well as Alby towards the cafeteria for breakfast. I NEED to find Thomas I think to myself, he could have answers, going down the hall towards where Newt and Alby go for the cafeteria, I see a boy standing outside a room looking down, he then turns his head towards us and I see his face. It’s Thomas!

Ecstatic I run over to him and Chuck follows close behind; Chuck hugging Thomas in a big bear hug while I just give him a simple nod. “Thomas, where are we?” Chuck asks, worry flooding his face

“Don’t know but from what Teresa said...we’re at WICKED”

“So Newt was right”, I mutter under my breath

“WICKED...the people that put us in the Maze?” Chuck asks

“Yeah”, Thomas says, his eyes becoming watery at the thought

“This could be good guys”, Chuck replies happily

“Good? Being at WICKED could be good?” I look at Chuck an eyebrow raised at his words

“Yeah, good”

“How?” Thomas asks, still as confused as me

“We could stop the Maze from ever happening”

“And how are we going to do that”, I ask

“I don’t know”
