So, I really enjoyed the different mental institution AU ff, but also the powers ones, and I decided to mix everything...
I do not own Maze Runner. I will not gain anything from this story apart for the gratification of the reviews. (please feel free to enrich my reviews-based happiness)
Subject: Thomas Edison
Diagnosis: Schizotypal [Telekinetic]
Schizotypal personality disorder is a personality disorder characterized by a need for social isolation, anxiety in social situations, odd behavior and thinking, and often unconventional beliefs. [Telekinesis, is the psychic ability allowing a person to influence a physical system without physical interaction, i.e. touching it.]
Thomas knows what he saw. He moved the damn mug, and without touch it, thank you very much. It slided, smoothly, ten centimeter on the coffe table, coming closer when he reached out for it. It wasn't the first time that something like that happened. But then, again, apparently his capacity has gotten stage fright, and even if he tried to show his power to his mum in multiple occasions, he always failed.
And maybe he wasn't able to convince his mum he got superpower, but apparenly he manage to convince her that he was a weirdo, and so they started this fancy tour of psychologist and psychiatrist all over the state, and couple of the adjacent ones.
Now, after a month, what he gain from that shows is a diagnosis of schizotypal personality disorder, not as bad as schizophrenia but still far away form cool. "People with this disorder frequently misinterpret situations as being strange or having unusual meaning for them; paranormal and superstitious beliefs are not uncommon." The last doctor said. And then he, the doctor, gave them an address of a clinic specialized in this kind of problem, if someones could help Thomas they will do it, he said.
So, here they are, after a month,in front of the gates of the Wayne Independent Clinic for Kid with Emotional Disorder. Black, wrought iron gates, connected to a black, wrought iron fences that encircle what looks like a topiary maze. In the middle of the maze, the main building, a white victorian house that looks way too peaceful and too quite and way way too white to match Thomas' feelings and expectations.
Yes, Thomas says to himself, it's a mental hospital, after all, it should be black and scaring.
Thomas was expecting the Arkham Asylum from Batman, probably.
Anyway, his mum is pushing him in, and everything is a blur after that. In no time they speak with the doctor, that is also the director of the clinic, an energetic, blond woman in her late fifty, and soon he's checked in and his mum is kissing him goodbye.
Then the nurse is leading him in his new room. He will have to share it with two other guys, she said. She opens the door, and moves to let him in.
The first thing he notice is the smell of burnt.
Then he notice the asiatic guy, taller than him and muscular, and with dark hair that defy gravity.
The guy looks apologetic "I'm sorry Greenie, looks like I just set fire to your bed".
"..."
"Really Minho? Again?" is the defeated comment from the nurse behind Thomas.
Oh, great, how should Thomas going to survive to this place?
