The Glader: Newt x OC

Tensions Arise:

"Nope," Thomas answered.

"Maybe this is a bad idea," I whispered.

Thomas walked in cautiously. Minho kissed my cheek and whispered, "I got you sweetheart." The two of us followed greenie. We all looked around the space. It appeared to be in sections separated by the lifting doors. The three of us approached the circle. "I don't like this," I said. The circular door was probably three of me tall, and dark as tar.

Minho brushed his fingers through something. It was a sticky substance.

"Grievers!" He said. I jumped back.

Further into the hole a red light blinked. A laser beam, also red, flashed over the hole as if to scan something. Us.

"What is that?" I yelped as the beam ran over me. Some form of alarm started to blare.

"Let's get out of here!" I suggested.

"The heck was that?" Minho asked. An even louder sound ripped through the air. It hurt my ears. The door began to move.

Thomas turned and tossed the key to my boyfriend, "We gotta get out of here!"

"Run!" I yelled. The three of us ran as fast as our tired legs would carry us. The circle door closed as the others began to come down.

"We're gonna get trapped!" Minho yelled and pushed me ahead.

The three of us dashed through the blades. They were changing. All the walls around us moved with loud bangs.

"Go go go!" I screamed as a wall closed off right in front of me. My heart was pounding.

Minho was stuck on the other side.

"Minho run!" I yelled as I tried to keep up with hin. The doors would fall closed just as he passed the next one.

"Minho!" Thomas yelled.

Thomas slipped through. My turn. I made it through the next one, just barely getting squished. The three of us ran down the passageway into the open way. The ground shook. Dust flew up around me as I struggled to stand. Minho grabbed my hand as four walls opened from the ground in front of us. A piece of the maze tilted towards us. We ran over the stone surface as it crumbled behind us.

"Don't look back!" Minho yelled.

"Oh crap!" Thomas yelled as another wall broke behind us. Minho shoved me through the gap between a wall rising and the one on top, "Go!"

I squirmed through, then turned around to pull him and thomas out. Completely out of breath, we all collapsed on the hard ground on the other side.

"Whoo," Thomas breathed and fell back.

"What the heck happened?" I asked, brushing dust off me.

Minho shook his head, gasping for air, "I do not know."

We made it out of the maze to see a bunch of the gladers waiting for us.

"The heck is going on out there?" Newt asked.

"Are you guys alright?" Zoe asked and hugged me. I hugged her back just glad to be alive.

Gally asked, "What have you done now Thomas?"

"We found something," I said.

"A new passage. We think it could be a way out," Thomas answered Gally.

"It's true," Minho said as we walked. "Something I've never seen before."

"Think it must be where the grievers go during the day," I added onto the conversation.

"Wait woah woah. You're saying you found the grievers home?" Chuck tripped over a stone. I quickly grabbed the back of his shirt so he wouldn't fall.

"And you want us to go in?" Zoe asked.

"Their way in could be our way out." Suggested Thomas.

"Or their could be a dozen grievers on the other side," Gally spoke. "Truth is Thomas doesn't know what he's done as usual!"

Thomas turned around and got in Gally's face, "Yeah well at least I did something! Gally. What have you done huh? Except hide behind these walls all the time!"

Zoe and Newt stood behind him.

Gally snarked back, "Let me tell you something greenie. You have been here three days. I've been here three years!"

"Yeah you've been here three years! And you're still here Gally!" Thomas was ticked off. "So what does that tell you? Maybe you should start doing things a little differently."

"Maybe you should be in charge Thomas. What about that?" Gally taunted.

"Hey," Teresa said, trying to get everyone's attention. "Hey!"

Everyone looked at her.

"It's Alby. He's awake."
