"Things are changing. There is no denying it." Gally said as he quickly looked over his shoulder so he could look at Jack before looking back to the rest of the Gladers that was sitting in front of him on the bleachers that was against the wall of the hut.
"First Ben gets stung in broad daylight and then Alby." Gally said as he sent a hard look towards Thomas." And now our Greenie, her has taken it upon himself to go into the maze which is a violation of or rules."
"He saved Alby." Jack spoke up.
Gally was getting tried of what ever was going on between her and Thomas cause when ever he messed up in what ever he did around the Glade, she was always there to defend him. Gally turned around to look at her." Did he? He asked as he folded his arms over his chest.
Jack shook her head at him cause he was being a real pain and to come to think about it had all started the day Thomas had arrived." If it wasn´t for him, Minho and i would be dead."
Gally laughed as he quickly looked towards Newt for some help, he rolled his eyes as he sees Newt staring at Jack and seeing the look Newt is given Jack masks him pissed off cause when ever it came to Jack it was like the boy didn´t have a mind of his own.
"Are you not going to say anything?" Gally asked and he sees Newt turning his head towards him." Yes, you!" He all but yelled at Newt as he sees Newt pointing a finger towards himself.
"I hate to say it, but Gally is right. Thomas broke the rule by-"
"So he broke a rule, but he saved us." Jack said as she unfolded her arms so she could point her hand over at Thomas." He saved us in there and you know-"
"Why do you need to defend him so much!" Gally yelled all of the sudden, making everyone inside the hut turn their head towards him.
"Why do you care?" She asked with a shrug of her shoulders.
"For three years." Gally said as he held up tree finger to make his point across." We have coexisted withe Grievers and now, the Greenie´s have killed one of them. Who knows what that could mean for the rest of us or do you even care about the rest of us now that he is here?"
"What is that supposed to mean!" Jack yelled as she took a step towards him, but she was holed back by a hand on her arm and she turned to see it was Thomas that was holding her back.
"Don´t." Thomas begged her.
" They were not there so they don´t know what happened." Jack yelled as she quickly turned her head to Gally before she looked back at Thomas." You saved me." Jack said as a tear fall down her cheek cause she could still feel everything that had happened, she felt it every time she took a breath." So if the want to punish you then they have to punish me as well."
"Don´t!" Minho and Thomas said at the same time.
"What is she talking about?" Gally said as he looked at each boys before looking over at Jack.
"She hit her head pretty hard when she fall so what ever she said." Minho said as he moved his hand up towards the side of his head and made a circle movement with it like she was talking crazy.
"Minho is right." Thomas said as he pushed her behind him." She is talking crazy she did that a lot so-" Thomas said with a shrug.
"So, what do you suggest we do?" Newt asked to get Gally´s attentions away from Jack cause what ever had happened inside the maze had been bad since both of them where protect her.
"Newt!" Jack quickly looked towards the boy, shacking her head cause she could not believe he had just asked that.
"He has to be punished." Gally said as he turned back to look at the other Glader that sat there looking back and forth the five of them wondering what was going on that they didn´t know about.
Gally was about to open his mouth to talk, but he closed it as he turned back to see Minho had pushed both Thomas and Jack back and it made him raise an eyebrow as he started Minho down." Is there something you would like to add?"
"I think that in all the time we have been here, no one has ever killed a Griever before." He said as he looked quickly looked over at Newt before looking back at Gally." When i turned tail and ran, this dumb shank stayed with Jack and helped with Alby. Look, i don´t know if he is brave or just plan stupid like Jack over here, but whatever it is, we need more of it." Minho said as he turned around so he could look at Thomas.
"I say we make him a runner."
"A runner?" Gally asked not believing what Minho had just said." Are you kidding me?" He said looking towards Newt who just shrugged his shoulder cause maybe Minho did have a point.
"Whoa, let´s not jump the gun here." Frypan said as he stood up, holding out his hand towards Minho.
"I second that." Jack said as she pushed her way from behind the two boys.
"Jack, don´t." Thomas said as he grabbed a hold of her hand to pull her back, but she just moved her fingers in between his as she stood her ground.
Gally turned back and he all off the sudden felt more hatred towards the Greenie as he sees they were holding hands." If you want to throw the newbie a parade, that is fine!" He yelled as he looked up at Jack given her a hard look that only lasted a few second before he turned back around so he could look at the other Gladers." But if there is one thing i know about the maze, it is that you do-"
But what Gally was about to say was lost to everyone as the felt the rumbling of the earth beneath their feet and it was followed by siren that was all to familiar to everyone.
"It can´t all ready be time?" Newt said as he walked out with Gally and Mino by his side and all the other boys followed after them, leaving Jack and Thomas standing inside the hut alone.
"Where do i know that sound?" He asked as turned his head to the side so he could look at her.
"It is the box. The one you arrived in, but it should not be happening for another month." Jack said as she started to walk towards the opening of the hut, but she was pulled back.
"What are you-" Jack was about to ask Thomas what he was doing as he placed each of his hand on her cheek as he moved his lips against hers in a kiss that ended much to soon her Jack´s liking.
"What, was that for?" She asked as she felt Thomas leaning his forehead against her as his lips were hovering closely to hers.
"I just found you, don´t make me lose you already." Thomas begged her.
"You wont lose me if you would just let me help you." Jack said as she placed her hands on top of his hands that was still on her cheeks." so, please let me." Jack said as she pushed her lips back against his and the stood there for a few more second before she moved away and she had to hide the smile on her face as she heard Thomas letting out a disappointed sigh as he tried to kiss her again.
"Come on." Jack said with a smile as she pulled him along her out side the hut and towards the others that stood around the box as the waited for it to arrive.
When the box arrived, Newt jumped inside it to look around as a boy asked him what was inside it and it was silent for a moment and Jack didn´t like it so she pulled Thomas along with her as she pushed her way through the other boys as she sees Newt taking a step back as he turned around to look up and Jack didn´t like the way he was looking when he looked at her.
"It is a girl."
"No way." Someone yelled in surprise.
Jack could all of the sudden feel eyes on her and she looked around to see all of the boys where looking at her." What !" Jack yelled with a annoyed look on her face as she pushed her chest forwards and it made the boys take a step back cause over the years the mad known it was a tell, tell sign that she was angry.
"Jack is not the only girl anymore." Someone yelled and it made her shake her head as she let go of Thomas hand so she could get down on her knees to get a better look at the girl and Jack saw the girl was asleep, but there was something familiar about her, but she pushed it behind her as she heard Gally ask what she was holding in her hand.
Newt took the piece of paper out of the palm of the girls hand and he read it to himself before he turned to look at the others, but as he was about to say what it said, the girls eyes shot open and she let out a gasp and it made Newt jump back in surprise, but all of the Gladers did the exact same thing as the girl looked at them until her eyes stopped on Jack and she leaned her head to the side as she opened her mouth to say something, but she moved back against the floor as she sees the brown-haired boy that was stood behind her.
"Thomas" was all she said as her eyes closed and she was back to being asleep.
Jack looked up to see all of them where now looking at Thomas with a look of shock and surprise on their faces and Jack herself got a real bad feeling as she had gotten a real good look at the girls face.
" What did the note say?" Jack asked as she got back on her feet and she could see out of the corner of her eyes that all of them where looking down at Newt as the waited for him to answer her.
"She is the last one." He read out loud as he looked up at them as he swallowed before he continued." Ever.
