The Maze

(ON HIATUS)

The Maze is a huge event where close to a hundred people go into and compete in the maze each year, a test of intelligence, strength, and bravery where one most overcome their greatest fears and the hardest tests and obstacles to get through the maze and get out at the end of it. The hosts (usually rich half-drunk seniors) are offering 2M to winners of the competition each year. Plus, only high school kids are allowed in, and for the maze and the maze only, the police are told to completely ignore it, even though in the end only one comes out alive.

All Ashley Blackwell ever wanted to do was get into Stanford University, as she feels like that's all her life depends on; the perfect education for her. But when her family's house burns down and the family is left poor, they move down to a forgotten town in California called Sacramentum, which is famous for being a town that no one speaks about, for reasons unknown to Ashley until she goes to prom and finds out what the summer has in hold for her, as long as she can survive the maze.

What happens when Ashley enters the maze, and finds out that inside the maze, there are no laws, rules, and no level of violence not allowed, but they do have her most terrifying nightmares, tons of dying allies and enemies, battles, wars, teams, ghosts, and even a bit of magic in this whole new world people call The Endland?
