Chapter 6:
Avery recognized the scream.
"That was John." Avery said running over to the where the doors were getting ready to close. She looked in the Maze. I thought he was dead. She thought to herself. She started to think about how he could have survived. She wasn't paying attention when she fell to the ground. Something heavy was on top of her. She broke out of thought. She fought to keep John off her.
"John, what is the matter with you?" She asked him. He had a crazed look in his eyes. He was covered in blood.
"You've been stung." She realized.
"I thought you were going to save me." he yelled at her.
"I tried, you wouldn't listen to me. Let me go." She yelled back. He wouldn't get off her. So she bashed her head against his, which hurt a lot, but it worked. John fell off her and onto the ground next to her. She got up quickly and started running to where the other boys where running to her. She didn't got very far when she felt something hit the back of her head. She fell down to the ground and her vision going blury. Someone picked her up. It was John. His bloody arms wrapped around her neck. She could here the doors close in the distance.
"Let me go." She said elbowing him in the stomach. It didn't work. His grip on her tighten. She started gasping for air. Her hands trying to pry his arms away from her neck.
Minho's P.O.V:
Minho knew Avery was going to run to the doors, she had thought John was dead, so when was he screaming. He thought she would be okay because the doors were already starting to close. He looked towards Newt, thinking she would be fine. Until he heard her cry out. Everyone turned their attention to where she was. Someone was on top of her. Alby knew who it was because he started running. Minho ran too.
"AVERY" Minho yelled. He watched as she bashed her head against his, giving her time to get free. She started running towards them. He watched John get up, picking up a rock in the process. Which he threw at Avery striking her in the head. She crumpled to the ground. Minho was almost to her when John picked her up and squeezed her neck. She starting gasping for air.
"John let her go." Alby spoke softly. John looked at him then down at Avery.
"Why? She didn't save me. They got me. Everything is going to change." John said. Then he just went silent. Blood started pouring from his mouth. Something was sticking out of his chest. John fell pulling a almost unconcious Avery with him. A knife was sticking out of his back. Gally stood behind them. Everyone looked from John, to Avery, to Gally. Avery started coughing harshly. Gally picked her up. Holding her up. He leaned closer to her mouth. She was speaking to him. Gally only nodded. Gally walked over to Minho and passed Avery over to him. She nearly fell, her legs giving out.
"I'm fine." She mumbled.
"Shuck, that you're not." Minho snapped, he realized he snapped at her. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. I was worried." Avery looked up at him, a faint smile was on her face, then she blacked out.
Avery's P.O.V:
Avery didn't know what was happening when John stopped moving. They both fell to the ground. She couldn't move. Until she felt someone pick her up. It was Gally. She looked back at John, a knife sticking out of his back. She leaned in closer to him.
"Gally I'm sorry. You shouldn't of had to do that." All he did was nod his head. Gally passed her over to Minho. Avery felt that Minho was stiff with worry. She almost fell to the ground if he hadn't been holding her.
"I'm fine." She said even though she wasn't. She was nearly killed by John, who was just killed by Gally. Now Gally would probably be punished, probably banished. Avery felt her eyes lids giving up on her. She didn't fight it. She let the darkness take her.
