"Okay, let's split up and look for Thomas." Minho being the leader announced. "That's a terrible idea. What if we loose each other or a crank comes after us" you spoke. "She's got a point" Newt your boyfriend said. "Let's just partner up" Frypan suggested. "Good that, we'll meet back here in 20 minutes" Minho commanded.

"Come on Newt, let's go this way" you said pulling his arm. The couple walked east searching behind buildings and around areas in search of their friend.

"I can't believe he bloody ran off like that" Newt said. "It's not like him to do that, there must have been a problem" you added with worry in your voice. "You're probably right love, but maybe Brenda took him somewhere." Newt said trying to calm you. "That whorebag, they just met and she's all over him" you murmured. "Haha (y/n) why so rude?" Newt joked. "I worry for Thomas I don't want him to mess up what ever he has with Teresa" you said. "He'll be fine" Newt said exaggerating his breath.

"What was that?" you asked frightened. "It came from that dumpster" Newt said picking up two pieces of sharp wood off the ground. Newt handed you the makeshift weapon. "Show yourself!" you said stupidly. "Shut up!" What ever it is do we really want to know?" Newt whispered. "What if it's Thomas?" you protested. "Don't you think he would have bloody recognized our voices?" Newt added.

From behind the dumpster 1/4 of a head popped out and quickly went back to hiding. "What was that?" Newt asked a little louder. "I saw eyes, I think. Big brown ones, like yours. And um I could make anything else out." you said the worry going away. "Hello? Come out. We aren't going to hurt you" you said loudly putting the wood down. Newt put his weapon down as well. "What are we doing?" Newt whispered. "We need to know who is behind there, maybe we can help them" you said clearly so whatever was behind the dumpster could hear.

At that half of a body crept around, then it stepped out. A child, covered in shadow. "Hi, I'm (y/n) and this is Newt. We won't hurt you" you said calmly. The boy took a small step forward, still covered in shadow. "We want to help you" Newt reassured. "Take my hand" you said holding it out for the young child to grab. The child grabbed it and walked forward out of the shadow.

A boy, no older than 8. (Picture of fetus Thomas above)"Can you tell us your name?" Newt asked. The boy stayed silent for a few seconds scanning the couple. "Brodie" the boy said (haha get it Thomas Brodie-Sangster, idk I think it's cute) "Newt he looks just like you, look at him! The big brown eyes, blondie red hair, the nose, the square jawline" you urged. "I mean I guess so" Newt said. The boy looked down at the ground hiding a smile.

"Are you hungry?" you asked Brodie. His face lit up. He nodded his head multiple times. Perfectly there was a bench near by. An old somewhat broken one but still usable. "Here" Newt said ushering the boy to sit. You took out a can of beans and sausage and a water bottle from your nap sack. You pulled the lid and inserted a fork. Brodie took the can and quickly started eating it, only taking breaks for a drink.

"Can you tell us about yourself? Newt asked him. "Um well I-" you cut the boy off. Newt his voice, his accent it sounds just like you. We haven't met anyone like that" you said excitedly. Newt was stunned "wow, I don't get this." "Sorry for cutting you off Brodie" she said. "It's okay, I was thinking the same thing" the boy had definitely felt a lot more comfortable after they had given him food. "Well I was with these people in a big building and then they sent me here. That's all I remember"

"That sounds similar to what happened to us, see we were in this maze-" you were cut off by Newt. "Yah sure you want to tell him all this" Newt said starring into your eyes trying to avoid the boy. "Newt, who is he gonna tell?" you added. "Anyone" Newt looked at the ground. "He's coming with us" seriousness laced your voice. "Excuse us for a second" Newt said pulling you to a corner. The boys face showed worry.

"Look I would love for him to come with us. I just don't want to you know get his hopes up, what if Minho and them say no" Newt pushed. "I don't think they are that cold hearted babe. Plus don't we have a say" you remarked walking back to the table ending the conversation. "Fine" Newt said.

"Okay let's go Brodie" Newt said with a smile. "It's time to meet our friends, they'll love you" you added. A genuine smile brightened the boys face.

How was it? I know I changed some stuff from the book but whatever. I have some ideas for more
