Unity at Dawn (Maze Runner and TFP Crossover)

Danger & New Discovery

Thomas got up to help Alby and he saw a gash on his forehead.

"What happened to him?" Thomas asked.

"What it looks like, he got stung." Minho replied.

"What happened to his head?" Thomas asked.

"I did what I had to do." Minho said, indicating things didn't go well when he got stung.

Their thoughts were interrupted when they heard an animalistic screech in the distance and Minho got up to start moving.

"Wait! Minho!" Thomas said wanting to help Alby.

"We gotta move, the Maze is already changing." Minho said.

"You don't understand Greenie, we're already dead." Minho said, then he took off around the corner in full sprint.

Thomas couldn't believe he would just run off like that and he gave a thought to doing the same, but immediately shot it down when he realized Alby was the one who helped him when he arrived in the Glade. And now it was his turn to help him.

Thomas grabbed Alby by his shoulders and started dragging him off, he decided to go in the same direction Minho did. In hope to find him again, but when he saw the long corridor and the many different paths It suddenly hit him how impossible escape seemed from this place.

Thomas got a hold of himself real quickly and saw the sun was almost down completely, he looked at some of the vines on the walls and got an idea on how to keep Alby safe. He grabbed some of the ivy and wrapped It around Alby and himself.

After doing that he heard the same screeching from before, so he moved quickly by tying the ivy tight around them and then started pulling himself up the wall. In turn his weight pulled Alby up too and when he got Alby high enough he went low enough and tied Alby to the other Ivy on the wall.

After making sure Alby was secure, Thomas was going to untie himself and run off. But then it sounded like the screeching was right on top of him, so instead he quickly hid himself in the ivy and tried to hold his breath and stay completely still. Which proved to be difficult due to how high he was.

The peaceful sounds of the crickets chirping in the moonlight were immediately interrupted when a mechanical leg slammed itself into the wall near him, he couldn't see due to the perpetual darkness but he knew this had to be the griever. He froze immediately worrying that even the slightest drop of sweat would make it aware of his presence.

Just when it felt like the Griever was right on top of him, two loud booms echoed from the distance. Almost sounding like lasers, then the Griever hopped off the wall and ran towards the sound.

Then Thomas slowly climbed down the wall, set both of his feet on the ground and started walking to his left. He then turned a couple of corners and kept turning his head to check his surroundings when he stepped on some weird white goo on the ground which he winced at.

All of a sudden he heard a low growling above him, he looked up and barely had a second to move before he dived out of the way of a Griever trying to land on him. Thomas was on the ground when the grotesque creature roared at him and he got a good look at it, it was a bug like a creature with mechanical limbs and sharp teeth in it's mouth.

Thomas immediately got up on his feet and started running away with the Griever chasing after him, he turned one corner and when it was right behind. He turned another he continued this cycle before reaching a dead end.

With nowhere else to go, Thomas kicked himself off of a wall and grabbed some of the vines on a nearby wall which was one of the many walls that were lower than the others. He immediately started climbing up as fast as he could and pulled himself on top of the wall and continued running when he saw the Griever was right behind him.

Thomas stopped in his tracks when he reached a high ledge and stopped himself before he fell. The Griever was there waiting for its prey's next move before attacking and Thomas jumped and grabbed onto the vines that were on the wall that was across. The Griever jumped at him to catch him and it brought out it's stinger, but Thomas was able to dodge it as all the ivy on the wall was brought down.

Thomas got himself out of the ivy while the Griever was still struggling to get out of the ivy. Thomas backed up before he was suddenly attacked by another Griever, he was pushed to the ground and Thomas saw no way out and was ready to feel excruciating pain but then suddenly a massive saw went through the Griever's body.

When the Griever's grip loosened Thomas rolled out of the way of the spilling guts from the Griever's body and Thomas watched the Griever fall to the ground dead as he looked up and saw two ginormous bots standing before him, one was red and a had white face with wheels on It's back while the other was skinny and appeared to have high heels for feet and Thomas assumed it was a female Transformer.

"Ugh, disgusting!" The grey one yelled and held up it's arm and was about to fire a rocket, then Thomas got up and started running towards the end of the corridor when the red one pushed his arm down.

"Don't be foolish Starscream, this creature is not like the others. It's more intelligent, let's grab it." The red one said then they both started chasing after the boy.

When Thomas reached the end of the hall he bumped into something, it was Minho.

"Oh your one crazy son of a bitch!" Minho said in a surprised tone, then Minho noticed the two bots along with a griever that was already chasing Minho.

"Come on, we'll lose them down here!" Minho yelled and they ran together down different halls before it appeared, it was just the griever chasing them and they ran to the end of a corridor and saw a section was closing off.

"This section is closing, we'll lose it down here." Minho said before running to the end of the hall before the wall shut, but Thomas stayed behind for a second and waited for the griever to start chasing him.

As soon as it was close enough Thomas started running as fast as he could to avoid being crushed, Minho was yelling for him to hurry and the grey one watched this happening with the red one having fallen behind he was hoping to see both of the different insects crushed.

THOMAS!!!!

THE NEXT MORNING

Chuck was waiting at the door as it was time for it to open and he was hoping the three had survived and as the doors opened, Newt and Zart were standing with him but when they opened they weren't there.

"I told you Chuck, they're not coming back." Newt said with an upset tone and started walking away, Chuck started walking away sadly when he heard struggling behind him and saw all three boys alive and well returning to the glade.

"Ya! Yes!" Chuck yelled happily and Newt immediately ran back over along with the other Gladers to help Thomas and Minho with Alby as they set him down.

Chuck Immediately looked up at Thomas with relief and surprise.

"You saw a griever?" Chuck asked Thomas.

"Ya, I saw one." Thomas replied.

"He didn't just see it, he killed it." Minho said impressed.
