You know most parents tells their children to never follow a stranger, Dakota can't remember being told that but he's pretty sure that if he had a mother she would just say, 'I told you so'. Well it's to late to think about that suff now because his pretty sure that he just got killed by Elias, a dagger had been planted right were his heart was placed and blood was dripping from his mouth. He felt numb all over his body and he couldn't feels his toes anymore, he felt as if he was lying on clouds high in the sky just flying around on a peaceful pace. His vision were as dark as ever making it harder to know if he's dead or alive.
"You're not dead yet shank"
Oh, that voice. Elias seemed to still be close by but Dakota couldn't tell how close or far away the older glader were, who is Elias now again? He couldn't remember, probably one of his less friends over I the glade. He wasn't in the glade? Right, he had gone out into the maze with Elias! Why did he go into the maze? Ehmm, something about something important? Dakota couldn't remember that either, he seems to be pretty clueless about everything right now. Or is he always like this, maybe he's a jacked person? Heh, who knows?
"You killed me shank"
He chuckled making spit of blood fly out his mouth, he tried to raised his arm so he could wipe away the blood but it didn't listen to his command. He cursed in his head, he would probably shock on this slimy liquid before head would die from loosing too much of it. With a sigh he gave up on trying to lift his arm and instead focused on figure out when he would go over to the other side, he didn't feel very alive but the sound of Elias footsteps around him were clear as a day.
"Why are you so positive? You're about to die for God's sake!"
Ah, indeed he was. Dakota was dying but why wasn't he sad or scared? Should he be scared? He didn't think he should, after all he's a brave glader! Yes, Dakota's brave and very handsome! It will be a shame when he dies but he ain't scared or sad, Dakota's to cool for that!
"I'm handsome"
Not exactly what he was going for but whatever, it was true words which he would never in his afterlife take back. He could actually start seeing a faint light in the distance, it was kind of warm and of some reason he wanted to reach out for it. Grab hold of the light and embrace himself with it, more of a surprise was that his arms actually listened and he reached out for the distant light. It wasn't close enough for him to reach, he would have to stand and go to it. Could he really do that? It was worth a try, with little strength he heaved his body up to a standing position. He's body was a lot lighter than he could remember it to be and he noticed, everything around him was warm and he knew that it was impossible for him to still be in the maze. Should death really be this easy, like your walking on clouds? He felt like god himself, like nothing he could imagine was impossible. Everything he wanted could easily be achieved in this place, maybe he could ask for candy? Wait, how does he know about candy?
"Dakota"
He turned his attention back to the light and noticed a woman with long curly brown hair, light watery green eyes and a big smile on her lips. She looked to be in her late thirties and looked much cleaner then himself, she looked to be on the verge of tears from seeing him. Dakota took a step forward not really knowing what to do.
"Mom?"
Mom? He had a mom? She's his mom? Dakota didn't really know how his mom looked but it had been his own mouth who spoke the word and he should believe his own words, right? When he thought more about it, this woman was named Hanna and she's married to his father Paul. Isn't that convenient, he's about to die and first now did he get his memories in order! Dakota sighed as he glanced away from the light and noticed Minho standing behind him together with the rest of his friends from the glade, they didn't look as sad as his mother when he noticed them. The shanks looked quiet happy and most of them were smirking and giggling happily as they looked at him, Dakota had his own mischievous smirk on his lips. He had never actually been able to see his friend this clear and he had to admit, they were a group of klunkheads. Minho raised his hand above his head in a none moving wave.
"You're a real slinthead, you know that right? But even then, we all love ya!"
Jeff then raised his hand in the same way as Minho had done, the med-jacks eyes had become a little watery but he was still grinning like an idiot.
"There's only one blind glader with such a broad grin as you in the glade, no one will ever forget that!"
Newt chuckled and raised his hand over his head, he looked down and then up again looking back up with a bright smile on his lips. His eyes were also slight watery but the blonde was a pro to hide it.
"Well Cody, we will all miss ya bloody face here but we will sooner or later join ya"
The other gladers all agreed and one after the other they all followed and raised their hands, Dakota could feel his eyes starting to sting from the tears he tried to hold back. He wouldn't cry, not in front of these shanks, not in front of anyone. He had only cried in front of very few persons in his entire life, first one being his mother and father second one being Minho and third one Newt. He raised his own hand as he put the other over his eyes, he bit his lower lip and even then smirked.
"Even with my memories back, I know that I have never known such a bunch of shanks like you guys and I will miss ya all!"
He turned around so he once again faced his mother who was waiting for him by the light, she was still smiling brightly at him and he wanted nothing more than to hug her. He smiled and slowly started to walk towards her, his tears slowly running down his cheeks. He let out a low gasp and then smirked mischievously again, he glanced back towards his friends as he kept on walking.
"Don't join me to soon ya slintheads!"
He laughed and finally stood besides his mother and the warm bright smile, his mother was smiling towards the direction of his friends before looking at him. She made a small gesture towards the light and took his hand, Dakota didn't resist and gladly followed her into the warmth letting it embrace hos body.
