7
I woke up with Newt's hands no longer around my waist. I looked around and no one was in the room with me. I was in the one bed, in the one room, with no one in. I got up, my feet planted on the floor but my right foot gave away and I landed on the concrete floor. I cried out in pain and held my right leg. There was a bandage around my small leg, there was a dark red look to it. I started crying, missing Newt. I heard a bang on a vent under my bed. I looked and saw a boy, around my age with light brown hair and a blue hoodie. He also wore grey trousers.
"Maddison, right? I'm Aris," the boy said, he looked at my leg. "What happened?"
"I don't know. Where's Newt?" I replied.
"Newt is with the others. And two of my friends, Jack and Brooke. We need to get going. But you look like you cant get anywhere with that," he gestured to my leg.
I shuffled slightly, flinching in pain. After many minutes, we got to the room I was in last night. Someone grabbed me, hugging me tightly.
"A-are you okay? Did they hu-" Newt stopped, "I'm going to kill those shuck faces!"
"We need to go," a girl said, Brooke probably, a boy stood next to her. Jack.
We got back into the vents then stopped to get out. Aris, Winston, Fry, Brooke and Jack went to go get a way out. While, Thomas, Minho, Newt and I went to go find Teresa. Newt helped me walk, as we went down another hallway. A guard was at the end of the end of the hallway, Minho ran forward and kicked the guy right in the chest. I limped over, Newt holding onto my shoulder.
"Holy shuck..." Newt muttered.
Thomas grabbed the gun from the unconscious dude and we got going. Thomas eventually bumped into a lady. He grabbed her and we moved to a room where Teresa was in. Newt grabbed a chair and started to bang on the window, he did it three times until it smashed. Thomas put a blanket over the window frame to stop us hurting ourselves. We made our way out.
We made our way into a hall, the door was locked on the other side. Where the others should be. Thomas held the card, trying to unlock the door. It didn't work.
"Stop, Thomas! It won't work!" Someone said behind us. Rat Man.
Newt held me tightly against him. Thomas held the gun, so hard his knuckles went white.
"Let us go!" He yelled, threatening to shoot the gun.
He did a warning shot then, he shot again, shooting at a guard. The electricity surrounded the guard, making him fall on the floor. The door in front of me, Newt and Minho opened.
"Hey, guys," Aris said, letting us in.
I didn't know what happened after that. I heard shouting, then a loud creak. I got back from where I was. We were in a desert.
"You okay?" Newt asked. "You went out for a second."
I nodded, slowly. Scared of what I saw.
"You sure?" I nodded, holding his hand.
Everything is different. We're in the scorch now.
