The Hollow Runner | Twilight x TMR Crossover

| He ran to survive. Now, he must remember to live. |

Stephen Swan was only five years old when he was taken. One moment, he was playing outside with his best friends, Jacob, Quil, and Embry. The next, he was gone - stolen away into the hands of an experiment that would change him forever.

In the Maze, he became Thomas. A Runner. A survivor. A leader. He fought to escape, only to lose everything - including the person he loved most. Newt died in his arms, and with him, the last piece of Thomas's heart.

Now, after years of running, he's been found. Rescued. Returned to a father who never stopped searching and a home he no longer remembers. But Thomas isn't the same boy who was taken. The carefree child is gone, replaced by someone colder, quieter - someone who doesn't know how to live outside of survival.

But while Thomas may not remember his old life, there are those who remember him. Jacob, Quil, and especially Embry. The quiet one. The one who watches him like he's waiting for something.

As Thomas struggles to piece together who he is and who he's supposed to be, he begins to realize that escaping the Maze was only the beginning. Because some bonds are unbreakable, some pasts refuse to stay buried, and some destinies were always meant to find him - no matter how lost he's become.
