((Fun fact, they don't have clocks there, they tell the time from the position of the sun. Since the sun is all they have to know what time it is, they can predict the time pretty darn well.))



                          
Wind whistled through the maze corridor and blew into my face. Fog crept along the floors and crawled up the stone walls I didn't understand how Minho did it. How he ran into this eerie maze and never got creeped out. 



                          
I stood there waiting, pacing nervously and biting my lip as I thought of the worst possible scenarios. What if he doesn't make it back, what if the grievers took him? What if aliens abducted him? Okay, I admit the last one there is not likely, but I have to think of all the possibilities. 



                          
Tears pricked the corners of my eyes as I realize that he might never come back. I'd never hear his sass again, roll my eyes at his ego. And I'd never be able to tell him about my feelings for him, whatever those feelings even were. I couldn't let that happen. I was going to see him again. Maybe if I'm positive and optimistic enough, he'll come back in time. 



                          
I felt a change in the wind and I turned my head, seeing Newt crouching down next to me. "He'll come back." He assured me in his soft voice as he patted my back. 



                          
"How can you be so sure?" I ask my voice shaking slightly. 



                          
"Because I've known Minho for 2 bloody long years, and I know him enough to be absolutely positive that Minho will make it, one way or another. You can't get rid of Minho no matter how hard you try." He said with a soft chuckle. "Trust me, I have tried." 



                          
Alby walked up behind him. "He is not wrong Tamara. As much as I don't want to admit it, Minho is the strongest person in the glade, mentally and physically. And trust me when I say, he won't let himself get killed when he has something worth living for." 



                          
"And what would that something be? His burning desire to sass everyone in this glade to death?" I ask raising an eyebrow. 



                          
Alby and Newt looked at eachother both seemingly holding back chuckles. "He will come out of this alive." 



                          
"But you said it yourself, No one comes out of the maze alive!" I say not really believing that he'll come back. I looked up at the sky and back into the maze worriedly. It was almost time for the doors to close. 



                          
"Minho is an exception. He knows the maze like the back of his hand. I swear, he will be fine. Now walk away from the doors and finish your day of work. Just because Minho might survive, doesn't mean that you will." Newt told me as he put his hand on the small of my back and slowly led me away from the maze doors. 



                          
I squeezed my eyes shut as a loud boom resonated through the glade. I turned back hoping that by some miracle, Minho was running out of the maze. He wasn't. 



                          
It felt as though my heart was in my throat. I didn't believe that Minho could just survive in the maze. He might already be dead! I just had to know for sure. I had to see him again. And I would. 



                          
I ripped myself from Newt's grip and sprinted towards the maze doors, running as fast as I possibly could. The doors closed in closer and closer as I ran through, hearing the shouts of Alby and Newt shouting me to stop, but their voices faded as the maze doors slammed to a shut behind me. 



                          
It was too late, it was done. Only then, I realized what I had done. I had accidentally signed my death certificate on purpose. 



                          
What's up my beautiful sassy shanks! This is where things get good. Small little update, you know how I said that this would be a very long book? Like 50 or more chapters? Well I feel like I should finish this book up sooner, so it's actually going to be just a little more than 30 chapters. MAYBE less, but it's not likely. 
                          
So since I'm finishing this book up sooner than expected, I am going to update quicker. I hope. No promises, but that's what I hope to do. 
                          
I also just realized how horrible this book is😂😂😂 my grammar sucks, I mix up my point of views from 1st to 3rd sometimes, and I don't think I really thought about building Tamara's character up to something more interesting with many flaws so you guys can love and hate her at the same time. I guess I'll do all that stuff with my original story when I get to it. 
                          
Anyway, I love you sassy shanks! Slay in life like Minhara slays them feels!
