Thomas was trying to grasp consciousnesses as he heard someone call him. He felt someone shaking him to wake up.
"Tommy, we have to go. Please wake up. Please don't be dead. Wake up!" the voice sounded muffled, in his hazy confusion he couldn't tell who it was.  Then his mind flashed to Newt on top of him holding a gun to his forehead as the voice said "Please, Tommy. Please....I need you" Thomas could hear the strain in his voice, as if he was about to burst into tears. Newt. Finally Thomas opened his eyes, blinking against the darkness. He sat up on the bed and Newt hugged him.
"You gave me a bloody heart attack you shank!" He yelled as he sobbed into Thomas's shoulder. Thomas wrapped his arms around Newts small frame. They stood there hugging for several minutes. Finally they pulled away and looked into each other's eyes. Newt has cuts all over his face and, what seemed like, a bullet wound on his right shoulder.
"Are you ok?" He asked, Thomas nodded and stood up.
"I'm fine, but what about you?" Thomas asks looking at Newts shoulder.
"I'll be fine, right now we need to get you out of here" Newt said grabbing Thomas by the arm.
"Don't you mean us? We need to get both of us out of here, I won't lose you again." Thomas said planting his feet.
"Thomas why can't you get it through your thick skull! I'm a bloody crank!!" Newts face was turning red, tears were forming in his eyes. Thomas stood his ground. "Newt" Thomas reached out his hand but Newt pushed it away.
" I don't know why I thought I could do this.." Newts voice trial off. "Here I found this when I was looking nice for you, I thought you might want it." Newt tosses a folder towards Thomas which had his name on it. Thomas picked it up and opened it. Inside he found a letter and a map with three routes. Thomas reads the letter.  It was from Ava Paige. It said how she doesn't believe in removing the brains and that the trials are over. She tell me where the other immunes are, then how to escape with them. Thomas goes to tell Newt but stops. He didn't know how Newt would react when he found out that wicked hid the immunes in the maze.
