my maze runner (Gally x Reader, Newtmas)

I looked up at Minho who was on his knees and breathing heavily. "Good job. You just killed yourself." He told me sadly. He sat down, already having given up hope. I stood up and walked over to Alby who had a large gash on his forehead."What's happened to him?" I questioned. "What does it look like? He got stung." Minho replied. "What happened to his head?" I asked, "I did what I had to do." Minho replied. In the distance, we heard a bone-chilling screech. Minho was already on his feet, but I still hovered over Alby. "Help me pick him up," I told Minho. "We gotta go." Minho said not listening and already walking away. "Hey, Minho!" I called. "We can't just leave him here." I said when he turned his head towards me.

Minho had a scared look on his face but helped me anyway. We picked Alby up and started going through the maze. It was starting to get dark when Minho said, "Sit him down. Sit him down." We sat him against a wall and both rested for a second. "this isn't going to work. We gotta go. We gotta go." Minho said panicked after we heard another screech, this time, closer.

"Wait! We gotta hide him." I told Minho. "Where?" He asked in frustration. "I don't know, you can't tell me there isn't one place we cant take him?" I replied. Minho yelled in frustration. "Listen here shuck face. Take a look around. There's nowhere to go." Minho told me. "you don't get it. We are already dead." He added. I looked behind Minho and saw a wall of vines. I walked over to it and said, "I have an idea." Minho looked confused but I told him my plan and he stubbornly agreed.

We got some vines and secured Alby to them. Then, we got more vines and started pulling Alby up. We heard grumbling and Minho stopped pulling. "We gotta go. We gotta go." He said, terrified. "No. no. no. no. no." I replied. "don't you dare go Minho." I told him. "I'm so sorry Antonia." Minho said in my ear before running away. I was struggling to keep Alby up, but then I saw a small opening in the wall with vines covering it. I quickly crawled under it and went as still as possible. I heard a whirring and then a metal claw strike the floor in front of me. It took everything I had not to scream in terror.

More claws came down and stayed there for a second before moving on. Once I could hardly hear the griever, I got out and started to tie the vine holding up Alby to it. I heard the griever come back just as I finished. I turned and hid behind a wall. I heard the clicking stop and I slowly looked out from behind the wall. Nothing was there so I walked out. I looked up and saw Alby hanging there, still passed out.

I started walking down a maze wall when I stepped in something slimy. I looked down and saw green mucus on my shoe. That can't be good. I looked up to see the griever in my face. Ugliest thing I've ever seen. I yelled out and started running away. I was running down a corridor when it came up in front of me. I quickly turned into the other hallway. I ran around countless corners until I was trapped. "Ah shit." I said and looked back in the direction of the griever. It was coming at me, fast.

I grabbed onto the nearest vine and started climbing. The griever started climbing along, so I jumped onto another stone. Then another, and another until there wasn't another one. I looked back and saw the griever in my face again. I started to jump to the vine wall across me but just as I launched myself off the griever clawed me. Not stung me, clawed me with its metal. I screamed out in agony but still hung onto the wall. The griever tried to jump after me but made us both fall but it got tangled in the vines.

I quickly saw my chance and stood up and started to walk backward slowly. Someone grabbed my shoulders and I screamed. "you crazy son of a bitch." I heard Minho say. "Come one! Follow me !" He demanded. Of course, I followed. We ran down many corridors until Minho found one that was moving. "Come on, this one's closing. We can lose it down here." He yelled and started running down it. I stayed put for a moment and looked back at the griever. I needed to kill it.

"Come on you ugly bastard!" I yelled at it. "Run!" Minho yelled. I started running just as the griever started following and just as the walls were almost closed I was at the end. "ANTONIA!" Minho yelled. And I mean yelled, people in the glade could probably hear it. I got out just as it closed and smashed the griever. I fell into Minho and we both layed on the ground, panting. "You shuck face. Never do that again." Minho said and hugged me once we stood up. I had forgotten about my injury until Minho hugged me, good old adrenaline. I pushed him away and he looked hurt before noticing the blood seeping through my two shirts. "Oh my gosh, Antonia!" He shouted. "It's probably nothing, just stings," I said adrenaline still numbing most of the pain.

He walked over to me and lifted up my shirts carefully. There was a long deep cut that ran from the base of my neck, diagonally to my belly button, and finished at the base of my spine. "Shit, that's not nothing." Minho said. "I'll be fine." I replied starting to feel a little lightheaded. Let's get back quickly. The maze doors should be open just as we get there." He told me, checking his watch. I nodded and we started to jog.

After a couple more minutes though, I got more light-headed and felt like I was going to pass out. I stumbled a bit and Minho saw. He immediately stopped and looked at me. "you ok?" he asked me. "Yeah, never better," I replied before passing out into him. I woke a few minutes later to Minho yelling at me and slapping my face. "Come on! I'm not leaving without you!" He yelled. "Er ow." I groaned. "Oh thank god you shuck face." He replied and picked me up. "Uhhh I hate being carried," I told him. "Not when Gally does it." He replied after he started running and winked.

I didn't know how to reply, so I didn't. when we got to Alby, I was feeling a bit better, my cut had stopped bleeding and the blood had congealed slightly. I helped Minho get Alby down and helped him carry him back even though Minho didn't want me to. Minho was right, just as we heard the maze doors finish opening we turned the corner.

Chuck, Gally, Thomas, and Newt were the only ones still at the entrance. Even though they all had their heads tuned in the direction of the other guys who were just leaving, Frypan and Wintson among them.
