You're on the other side of the door, watching as Thomas is taunting the sorry excuse for humans. Your heart beats through your chest as you watch the door get lower and lower. You frantically urge Thomas on, no longer caring about revenge on Janson. All that matters is that your lover gets to safety with you. If he didn't, none of this was worth it. All your years of survival will have been for nothing.
“Thomas!”You scream with everyone as the door is over halfway shut. Glancing at the voices yelling at him, he realizes what's happening too. He has no time now, and time is more than precious. It's sacred, something that should never, ever be taken for value. After all, nobody knows when theirs will be up.
Snapping his head back towards the guy he not so affectionately referred to as Ratman, he tried the launcher just for it to be empty.
He wasn't stupid, but he wasn't over what WCKD had done. He had betrayed them for a reason, and he wouldn't show them any fear. He was tired of them winning. He was absolutely disgusted with everything that they do and more than ready to drill that into their minds again.
Refusing to let them see the way the thought of not making it out due to his blind hatred chills him to his very core, he tossed the weapon on the ground. After all, it was no good to them now. Besides, (as far as the group is aware of) they won't ever be close enough for those to be used on them again.
Letting the instincts he seemed to have been naturally gifted kick in, he turned around and zoomed out of there. With his arms moving the way his brain told him they should and his feet hitting the ground, he used more force than ever before to make it. Even more so than when the Maze has been changing.
Because that was a test.
This is real life.
Seeing his girlfriend still cheering him on, your arms outstretched to be even the slightest bit of help, was the push over the edge. You mean far too much for him to just be separated from. You're his everything, and he'll be damned if he has to live without you.
Giving himself the final push, he then dropped to the floor and slid under the door. Grabbing his arm, Y/N pulled him all the way up right as it slammed shut. If she hadn't he would have been completely decapitated.
"Are you okay?"You checked, your eyes scanning over him. Right as he nodded Janson slammed on the glass as Aris broke the keypad, refusing to be a lab rat ever again.
“I’m fine,”He assured you, ignoring everyone as he squeezed your hand for a moment. Squeezing back, you heaved a sigh of relief before pressing a quick kiss to his cheek. While you weren't one for PDA, this seemed like a reasonable exception. Less than a minute ago the possibility of him even breathing was unknown. A little ‘I love you, and I'm glad you aren't dead kiss,’ is pretty small compared to, well, him being dead.
As everyone started sprinting off, she did the same. Looking Janson in the eyes, Thomas gave him a well deserved middle finger before running off to join the others. Slipping his hand into his girlfriend's, he let himself be hyped up by his last success and her. Her small kiss that made him more than happy, and he was more than ready for the many more to come.
