We actually survived a night in the maze when no one has ever did. And Thomas killed a Griever. I bet no one has ever did that either.
We find Alby and pull him down, untie him, and we look for the maze doors.
"Hey, guys. Get up!" Chuck says to the Gladers as he waited at the doors. He never gave up on us. He hoped we would make it.
The maze doors open and the Gladers don't see us. They frown in heartbreak, thinking that they had lost their leader, their Runner, the new Greenie who came a month before me, and their girl-Greenie. Newt was the one who was most upset. He lost the girl who he had always protected and formed a strong bond with, but he does feel something that he has never felt before with anybody except with her.
"I told you, Chuck...They're not coming back." Newt said to Chuck with his voice breaking and his eyes on the verge of tears.
The Gladers start walking away in heartbreak and their hearts full of grief. Until Zart turns around and all of a sudden, sees 4 figures walking to the Glade.
"No way..." Zart says with shock in his eyes and his mouth gaping.
Chuck turns around to see what Zart sees and is happy for us and proud of us for surviving the maze the first time.
"Yeah!! Yes!" Chuck cheers proudly.
We carry Alby and lay him down on the ground gently. Jeff looks at him as he tries to find a way how to fix him.
Newt runs over to me and engulfs me in a squeezing hug. I hug back since I missed him and that I was afraid I would never see him again. But I survived. I felt proud of myself.
"Thank shuck, you're alright! Don't ever do that again!" Newt mumbles in my shoulder while he hugs me tightly.
"How'd you guys make it out?" Zart asks, hoping for an answer.
"You saw a Griever?" Chuck asked us as he could see fear and relief in our eyes.
"Mm hmm." I answer.
"Yeah, we saw one." Thomas also answered.
"They didn't just see it. They killed it. Actually Thomas killed it. Jacqui stayed with me." Minho added.
Everyone looked at Thomas in shock and disbelief. It seems like no one has ever killed a Griever before.
*time skip*
A council meeting was called at Homestead.
Oh no, I'm not in trouble, am I? I thought nervously.
Everyone gathered around and sat down on their seats. I sit next to Thomas since we were the ones who broke the rules. My hand starts shaking nervously. Thomas rubbed my back and Newt walks over to me and puts a hand on my shoulder. They both knew that I never like getting in trouble and that I didn't mean to go into the maze, but my conscience told me to do the right thing. And I couldn't betray my kind heart and leave someone behind.
"It's gonna be okay, Jacqui." Newt whispers as he reassures me.
I look at him worriedly and nod.
"Things are changing." Gally starts off.
Everybody quiets down to listen to Gally.
"First, Ben gets stung in broad daylight...and then Alby. And now our Greenie and girl-Greenie here come upon themselves to go into the maze which is a clear violation of our rules here." Gally says as he points to me and Thomas.
"Yeah, but they saved Alby's life." Frypan backed us up.
"Did they? For three years...we have coexisted with these things. And now the two of you have killed one of them. Who knows what that could mean for us?" Gally said.
