The Real Savior (Newt X Reader)

Chapter 15

"Newt," she said but she had no idea if it could be heard by anyone.

(Y/N)'s eyes were beginning to drop and she was starting to think that they might not see her. In the last few seconds that she was awake, she saw someone turn around. (Y/N) couldn't make out who it was but then she saw that the Gladers were running towards her. Their shadows coming near.

"(Y/N)!"

She knew who's voice that was.

"Newt," she said in a whisper.

With that, her eyes closed and she went into a drugged sleep.

Flashback...

Something bad has happened inside WICKED headquarters.

There seems to be an outbreak or there could be one if their Elite Candidates Thomas, Teresa, Aris and Rachel won't do anything about it. Knowing that (Y/N) was also immune to the Flare, she was also sent with them to kill the Cranks that were inside.

It was pretty shocking for (Y/N) when she heard the news. She was more shocked when she learned that she was going to be sent in the front lines to fight off the Cranks. (Y/N) has never held a gun, much more a Launcher but with the help of her friends, she was able to learn.

The five of them killed the Cranks for about a day. That's how long it took. There were about eighteen in total that they killed. (Y/N) felt a little guilty with killing them since they were still humans. They were just sick, really sick. But she knew that she had to do her job.

After that day, (Y/N) didn't go check up on Newt or any of her friends until after a week. She hated that whenever she would close her eyes, the faces of the Cranks she killed would haunt her. She knew them, those people she killed. She wasn't fond of most of them but she still knew them.

For days (Y/N) would get nightmares and sleepless nights. She wished that Newt, her mom or her friends would be able to comfort her but they weren't there. Her mom and friends were too busy while Newt doesn't even know that she existed anymore. That made things worse.

One memory that stayed with (Y/N) was that there was a Crank that attacked her and clawed her arm, making blood flow out of it. The Crank was able to get a few drops of it inside her mouth. Before (Y/N) could shoot her, she ran away. She ran towards to where the Crank ran and saw her not looking insane anymore. Her eyes were no longer dark and lifeless and monstrous but they were confused and scared.

"(Y/N)?" She said.

(Y/N) took a step back, not sure what just happened.

"Stay back," (Y/N) said in an authoritative voice, holding the Launcher and pointing it at her. "What happened?"

"I don't know," she said looking at herself. "I do remember something," she drifted off. "Your blood," she said in realization.

"What about it?"

"I had a few drops of it in my mouth," she said. "I-I was a lost cause. I was way past the Gone." She looked at (Y/N) with realization. "Oh my gosh."

"What?" (Y/N) was really lost.

"You're the Cure. The virus might attack our brain but it can be stopped by the blood that flows around. You can save us!"
