Y/N p.o.v.

It has been three days. I've been walking through the scorch for three days. Luckily I have enough goods to survive. I have enough water for at least another week and enough food for a few days. It just was too much for me by WICKED. I can't live with the fact that my job includes sacrificing and torturing teenagers. I should be happy I'm not one of them but I have a good reason for that where I'm really ashamed of. 

I've arrived at another crack palace. I listen closely to be sure those cranks didn't wake up yet but I don't hear anything. That makes it safe for me to go in there. With my bare fist, I punch through the glass and listen again to hear if the cranks heard me. 

"What was that?" I hear a boy's voice say. There are others here. I walk through the broken glass and hide behind a big box. 

"What was what?" Another voice says. I hear one pair of footsteps coming closer.

"I thought I heard glass break," The first voice says again. 

"Don't be so paranoid and search further," The second voice demands and he laughs after he said that. I look around me to see if there is any way I can get out of here. I grab the right gun from the belt around my face. I'm making myself ready to attack them but when I want to I hear people yelling from the end of the hallway. 

"Go! Run, run!" They yell. I see two boys running towards the people behind these boxes which I can't see. The moment after the yelled that cranks come running after them. I need to get out of here, now. I run behind the boxes towards the stairways at the end of the hallway. Now I remember that I've been here before. In the first night in the scorch, I hid behind this building. I know exactly where to go. I take an inland which will end on the top of the stairways. I run over the upward path until I'm on top of the stairs. I see the group of boys plus one girl running towards me. I load my gun and aim at the cranks behind them. I take a closer look and notice that it's group A. They've escaped. 

"Take the first left and run up those stairs!" I scream at them and they look with confusion in their eyes at me. "I'll hold them up," I reassure them and now they listen. 

"Who the hell are they and what are those things?" I hear one of the boys yell at his mates and someone yells an "I don't know". I grab my other gun and shoot with the two guns almost all the cranks down. Now are these guns empty. I start running to the boys and follow them on the stairs while I try to put the guns in my backpack and grab my third gun. This one is bigger and almost didn't fit in my backpack with the other stuff 

"Take the third hallway on your right and go through the second door at the end!" I yell now and turn back around to face the cranks There are so many and I don't know if I can defeat them all. I start shooting and look over my shoulder to see if the boys did what I said. Newt lays on the ground with a crank on top of him. Not Newt. I start running up the stairs and kick the crank off of him. The crank falls through the class, down the stairs. 

"Thank you," Newt says with a look of confusion and he runs with the other boys into the third hallway on our right. I quickly follow them, me being the last. The hallway is small and we almost don't fit through but we still run to the end. I hear the cranks already on the beginning, coming for us. Winston, who walks in front of me, turn around and shoot the cranks. He seems to have a gun too. 

"We'll hold them up, get through the second door!" I yell again and I hear them kicking the door. It should be open since I kicked it open the last time I was here. Winston and I continue shooting until Siggy finally managed to open the door. Everyone runs through it and Winston and I are last. When Winston wants to walk away, and crank grabs his foot and starts dragging him back but I stamp on it's arm. I help Winston back up and we run through the door. "Keep running!" I scream to the others who were running slower so we could join them.

After a few minutes of running I see the shelter where I was hiding the first night. It should be safe there.

"Here!" I yell and they all stop. I point at the shelter and they all hide in their. I hide in the shelter in front of them because there is no more space left in theirs. I finally get to sit down. This is so exhausting.  I feel my head pound in my head so I lay my head between my knees and close my eyes for a few seconds.

"Hey, you," I hear one for the boys whisper. I look up and notice they're all looking at me. "Who are you?"

"I'm y/n," I whisper back and I see Teresa and Thomas exchanging a look. Maybe they remember me. I've worked with them multiple times until they were put into the maze. We're all silent for a minute. "You should sleep, there are not many shelters in the scorch," I say and I grab my backpack to find my empty guns which I need to reload. "Winston, give me your gun, I'll reload it," I whisper and they look at me with a confused stare.

"How do you know his name?" Thomas asks and I sigh. Maybe I shouldn't have used his name.

"I know all of your names," Is my answer. I don't want them to know where I'm coming from but I'll guess I have to explain it eventually.

"I don't believe you," Says Minho and he looks at his friends. "How could she possibly know our names?"

"I'll explain that tomorrow, Minho," I say with emphasis on his names.

"Holy shuck," He mumbles.

"Go sleep," I say,  raising my eyebrows. "If you're fleeing from WICKED it's a long journey so you're gonna need your sleep," I pull my extra jacket which I use as pillow over my backpack and lay it down with my back turned to them. Soon enough I fall asleep into darkness only thinking about the time before the maze. With Newt.
