That morning dawn just broke and Minho woke us up. ''Morning, both of you. You're ready?'' Thomas and I nodded. Minho handed us a sort of armour with handy things we could use in the maze, like little knives. When the doors opened we ran into the maze. I still had a sandwich in my mouth from breakfast. We ran, and ran, and ran. Until we came into a part of the maze Thomas and I have never been to before. The electrical thing Minho took out of the griever yesterday was still ticking. ''What are these?'' I asked. ''We call them blades, they're on the outer ring of the maze.'' ''So, what are we doing here?'' I asked. ''We're gonna look or that ticking thing from the maze will help us further.'' the thing kept making ticking noises. It got faster when we were at a wall with a half circle opening. We walked through it. It was a path with on both sides an gap that was really deep. 'To make a dangerous jump' I remembered the voice. Maybe I had to jump in that gap or something. I ignored my thoughts and followed Minho and Thomas. When we were at the end of the path, at least we thought we were. A wall opened, then another one and another one. We walked to the end, then some sort of scanner scanned us. I didn't know what would happen but it didn't fell good. Then we heard something we didn't want to hear, griever sounds...

The three of us started running the other side like idiots. The blades sort of noticed that we were there and started closing. I ran through some and started losing Thomas and Newt, I heard them yelling my name. I didn't know where it come from, I didn't. I decided to ignore their voices, probably not that good of an idea but I had no other choice. I ran until I had to catch my breath, I was away from the blades and back into the maze. I only didn't know where in the maze. 

I think I walked for half an hour until I saw some things that I remembered, well it were the walls where Thomas killed the griever. Then I heard Thomas and Minho and I walked to their voices: ''There you are, we lost you'' Thomas said. ''I know... I know but I'm safe now, and you both are too'' Then I started whispering to him: ''I found something out about the voice. We'll talk about it tonight.'' Thomas nodded and with Minho we walked out of the maze. When we came out of the maze everyone was standing there. ''What happened in there?'' Newt asked. ''We opened a door, something we have never seen before. Then we heard grievers from the hole.'' ''What? You have seen grievers coming from there?'' Chuck asked. ''No, but their way in could be our way out.'' I said. ''So suddenly the 3 of you are our new safers.'' Gally asked, not happy with the fact that Thomas and I went into the maze (again) ''At least we did something. I mean, what have you done these past 3 years??'' ''3 years, I have followed the rules, like you were supposed to do too!!'' Gally said, Before they would argue further Teresa stopped them and said ''It's Alby, He's awake, ''

Newt, Teresa, Minho, Gally, Frypan, Thomas and I ran to the med to Alby, we found him sitting on the edge of his bed. He looked okay, but he had tears in his eyes. ''Hey, are you okay? We found an exit from the maze.'' Thomas kneeled and asked Alby. Alby didn't answer, tears were the only thing we saw. ''You should never have come here. Why are you here?'' Alby said. Thomas was speechless, just like the rest of us he hadn't had any idea what we were supposed to do now. We decided to leave and give Alby some time to think. To think clear.

When we came outside some sort of hell broke out. ''What the shuck is happening??'' I asked Winston he's running with a torch. ''The doors, they won't close.'' ''They already should be closed more than an hour ago.'' Minho said. ''That's the thing, we don't know what's happening.'' Winston said and ran further. We ran to the doors. He was right, the doors weren't closed. Then we heard a gigantic bang. On the other sides there were also doors, normally they don't open. Now they did. 

At the moment all the doors were open and we heard griever sounds from everywhere...
