I have a maze runner/The Walking Dead fan account on Instagram and I also do maze runner roleplay so feel free to come say hello on there I'd love to have a chat! It's - @Gladershavehope

You sit in the scorch sand with the other Gladers,playing with your shaky hands. Minho passes you the bottle of limited water and you shake your head.

"Y/N you need to drink," Minho sighs "please."

"No..." You croak out as Thomas stands up,dusting himself off as he helps you up. You follow him,neither of you speaking a word until you're eventually far away from the others. Out of exhaustion you collapse on a rock and Thomas is soon by your side,wrapping his arms around you and making a fuss. He was your older brother after all.

"Y/N. Shit,are you okay?" He strokes your hair back "did... Someone hurt you? Did someone say something? Did a crank bite-"

"STOP!" You shove him back and Thomas looks at you in pure shock and sadness "Thomas... Please..."

"Please what?" Thomas kneels beside you "Y/N what's wrong? Please tell me."

"No..." You look down,biting your lip to stop the tears from streaming down your face. This was too hard. This world... It couldn't be beaten.

"It's okay to cry."

"I don't cry anymore Thomas."

"We are going to make it to the mountains and then we're going to be safe. I'm gonna get you there,I'm gonna keep you safe."

You scoff "there no future anywhere Thomas! This is so pointless..." You turn your head away him.

"Mum would be ashamed,to learn she raised such a coward."

"Shuckshit!" You cry "I remember... When mum turned. The look on your face..."

"Stop it-"

"So you just run. You can't fix this Thomas! You know that... After Chuck. And now God-forbid you ever let anybody get to close."

"Too close huh? You know all about that. You cared about Chuck too,you loved Jeff... They're dead!"

"Screw you Thomas..." You burst into tears "I survived and you don't get it because I'm not like you or them... But I made it and what else is there to understand!? I'm just like you... Immune to a virus that's wiping out the population. That's why we're running to somewhere we don't know that exists."

"It exists Y/N. I don't wanna hear another word about it." He yanks the knife from your pocket and walks back to the others. You needed space. You sit back down against the rock and curl up,drying your eyes.

"Y/N?" Newt approaches "come back with the others."

"No." You shake your head "I'm not speaking to that shank."

"Tommy?" He asks and you nod in response "give him a break yeah? Trying to save everyone ain't an easy job."

"Are you serious!?" You scoff "Newt he doesn't have a clue. You just limp along with him because you have a shitty crush on him or something."

He shrugs with a smile "maybe I do. But that isn't the point. Y/N we're going and Thomas won't leave you behind so you best bloody come with us right now."

"Whatever... You'll regret following him one day. Because he'll let you die."(Um well she's gonna regret saying that to Newt) You roll your eyes and follow him back to where the others were. You shoot Thomas a bitchy glare as Frypan hands you a light bag to carry.

"We know where we're going guys. We'll get there." Thomas encourages everyone "we haven't made it this far to give up."

"Agreed." You hear Minho mumble as him and Thomas are the first to head off. You follow behind with Teresa.

"Can I give you a piece of advice Y/N?"

You shrug "Can do. Doesn't mean I'm gonna take it."

"When you're mad at someone you love,be careful what you say because your mind gets angry but hour heart still cares. He's your brother after all,you have to come back to him eventually. People aren't meant to give up on people they love."

"You're such a shucking cliche Teresa," you let out a genuine laugh for the first time you remember. She recognises this and laughs back. "I know you're right. It's just... Doesn't this seem pointless?"

"Maybe,I'm trying not to think about that. But... We're gonna make it. The both of us we will. That's the hard part. No matter what the cost. Some of us could make choices which others don't agree with... You get it?"

"No. Teresa what are you saying?"

"Y/N we need to do what's right. You could help me." She lowers her voice.

"Help you with what?"

"If I promised you that the others would be safe... Would you do it?"

You grit your teeth in confusion and fear "Do what!?"

She purses her lips "never mind." She whispers and skips ahed to the others who were about 10 meters ahed of you.

You kept going for what seemed like days until night started to fall. The group lay down in a circle and Thomas made sure he was close to you. You curl up and face him.

"I... Didn't mean what I said to you," you whisper "I'm so stupid."

He moves closer and wraps his arms around him "maybe you should've... You're right Y/N. I don't know where we're going. We're lost... I... Don't wanna let them down."

You ignore this and lay on your back,looking up at the sky "you remember before the glade?"

He shrugs "bits of it."

"You ever think about who you killed?"

He lets out a long sigh "it's not just the ones I killed. I think about the ones I didn't kill too. I like to think that when I worked for Wicked I thought I was doing the right thing when I truly know I wasn't."

"You have to make sacrifices Thomas."

"You're just a kid Y/N-"

"A kid who understands what I takes. This isn't about me..." You nod to the sleeping group "look around... These teenagers have put their lives in your hands."

"I just feel like I have to save everyone to redeem myself. I promised Chuck. I promised him I'd get him home. I promised." He squeezes his eyes shut to stop from crying.

"There is no home," you whisper "not anymore. You haven't slept a wink since we left the maze have you?" Thomas that's not right."

"I don't think there is a right or wrong anymore," Thomas said,you could hear the tiredness laced in his voice. He desperately wanted to sleep. "Only horrible and not quite-so-horrible."

"Sleep," you command softly "I'll keep watch. We'll figure something out tomorrow okay?"

"Yeah." He gives you a tired small before his eyes fall shut. Once you're sure he's fully asleep,you edge away from him and hear a rumble above you. You look up in confusion and it seemed as if the clouds in the cold and dark night sky were lighting up.

"The hell?" You whisper as you stand up on shaky feet,you kept looking... Something inside of you told you to run and leave the others. You take a step back and your heel knocks hard against Minho's stomach. He jumps up wide awake.

"What the hell?!" He snaps.

"Look..." You point up at the sky "somethings coming..." You start to panic "what do we do!?"

Minho gulps and grabs his bag "Run."
