We made our plan, we waited for Gally to return and do whatever he had installed for us.
"Chuck go pack some food and get fry" newt spoke
"Minho" newt began
"All ready on it" minho smiled
Newt returned the smile
"Ok you three get ready...Gally's going to  banish you any second" newt looked me straight in the eyes with reassurance that he won't let anything bad happen to me
The word banish still left a sour taste in my mouth and the images of Ben's attack flashed through my brain

As predicted once newt left Gally soon came over a couple minutes later.
He didn't say anything but he gave us the most deadliest look someone could possibly give.
Thomas pretended to be unconscious still and Gally got his mates to tie rope around mine and Teresa's arms while two others dragged thomas across the floor.

Everyone left in the glade huddled around three thick posts that were deep in the ground.
I saw chuck standing aside away from the others with bags on his back, I tried not to stare in case the other gladers followed my stare and knew what we were up to.
Fry, newt and Minho stood in the crowd near the front with their heads low not drawing any attention.

Gally dragged Teresa's arm and I was dragged by the arm while thomas well he was being dragged along the floor with his head in the dirt I was surprised he let them.
Thomas was dropped to the ground face first in front of the posts, I know these guys hate us for triggering the end but we didn't intentionally do this.
Some respect would be nice considering me and thomas jumped into the maze to save their leader.

Teresa's hands were being tied to the post so was mine shortly after.
"You really think banishing us is going to solve anything" Teresa spoke
"You really think I'm going to let them two back out there after everything they've done" gally spat
It was silent and Gally finally broke it by speaking "and its not a banishing.....its an offering" he spoke calmly
"What" Teresa exclaimed
"Gally what are you doing" I shouted
"Shut up...will you just tie him" gally shouted and pointed to the boys towering over Thomas.

The boys hesitated at first probably doubting if this was wrong or right..I'm not going to even begin why this was all wrong...clearly gally was mad
"Why are you all standing there he's clearly mad" Teresa spoke
"TIE HIM" gally shouted
The two boys grabbed Thomas's arms and I prayed the plan would work.
I could see a slight gleam in Thomas's eyes as he opened them, he was so quick the next thing I knew both boys were laying hurt on the ground.

Everyone was confused and in awe at what happened, Gally didn't have time to react because a machete laid on his shoulder by Minho. Gally turned around and his face was filled with hatred Minho replied by tilting his head slightly to the side.

My hands were free after Newt cut the restraints and fry cut Teresa's hands free.
Chuck came running over to our side as we stood right in front of the doors facing the crowd.
"We are leaving" thomas spoke
"The grievers are going to keep coming back till you're all dead" thomas added
"Don't listen to them..they're just trying to scare you" gally reassured everyone
"No no I'm not trying to scare you... you're already scared alright I'm scared but I'd rather risk my life but there than spend the rest of it in here" thomas spoke
"Anyone who wants to come is free to join" he then added
Everyone looked at each other wondering who was going to make the first move
The crowd shuffled their feet uncomfortably and soon some started to move forward.

Some I didnt know their names but I noticed Jeff the med-Jack and Winston the slicer stepped forward.
I didn't expect so many to leave the place they felt was the safest but soon enough Gally was left with a few gladers..most likely his mates.
Everyone stood in front of the doors looking into the direction of Gally and his small squad
"Gally come with us" I spoke
He looked at me shocked that I would even show the slightest hint of sympathy towards him
He was silent
"Good luck against the grievers" he spoke calm

"Come on" thomas started to run and led the group with Minho in front too.
I stood in my spot looking at the boys I hardly knew and the place I hardly considered home.
My prayers were with them that they would all be ok...I hope I'll be ok I thought.
I didn't realise I was standing there for a while until I felt a hand wrap around my arm
"Come on lara" I heard newt voice
I turned around to be faced with panic all over his face. I intertwined my fingers with his to reassure him and we started running after the group we had fallen behind on.

Both of our limps were visible and it was hard for newt to keep up so I stayed at the back of the group with him.
We took sharp turns like I did in the maze before and we sprinted down long corridors.
The path was starting to become familiar as I realized we were nearly there.
"Just a little further guys" thomas shouted

We took more sharp turns to reach our destination, Minho peered around the corner of the corridor that lead to the grievers home
Minho rested his head against the wall and sighed
"Griever" thomas questioned
"Yep" minho replied
Chuck sighed deeply and so did some others

Thomas turned to face everyone and he made sure everyone heard and understood him
"Ok we do this..we get out now or die trying" he spoke quietly so the griever couldn't hear but he was very inspiring
Me and newt were still at the back of the group and most of the gladers couldn't see us back there.
I turned my head and looked up at newt, his eyes met mine and I leaned in and kissed him on the lips.
His lips were still sweet as they are normally and I hoped this wouldn't be the last time i would kiss him.
He excepted the kiss and I blocked out Thomas's little pep talk in the background.
I pulled away and newt smiled "what was that for" he questioned
I smiled "because I had a really crappy day and I needed it"
Newt lightly laughed and he ended up grabbing Thomas's attention
"Can that not wait till later" thomas questioned
I looked over at him and smiled embarrassed

Ok time to act serious I thought
We all clutched our weapons in our hands
"Ready" thomas questioned
Minho pulled his blade and people held their spears in the air
Not one person had worry over their face..I'm sure they felt it but adrenaline pumped through our veins and filled our hearts with bravery
This was it we fight for freedom or die trying.
Thomas looked at everyone and gave a small grin
"Ok LETS GO" he shouted he then turned around the corner and we all followed, screaming battle cries as we headed towards the disgusting creature.
