"Hey. Listen up, don't ask questions. But I want you to run to the end of The Glade and back to me." She stood with her arms folded, waiting.
Bridget looked at Paizlie questioningly but did what she asked. She ran as fast as she could for that distance and back to Paizlie.Bryant followed Bridget keeping pace with her the entire time.
Emmett nodded and called Paizlie from behind her. "They'll stay together."That was big. She smiled then turned back to the two. "How interested are you two in become Runners?"
"You mean the people that run out in the maze with the grievers? Well it would beat the other jobs we've tried so far." Bridget said. "Ya might as well." Bryant said. Running all day sounded better than cutting off pigs heads.
"Are you prepared to risk your life every day?"Paizlie asked, towering over them threateningly.
"Yeah. Why not? Some one has too or we aren't going to get out of this shuck maze. Why shouldn't it be us?" Bridget said."Sure. What she said." Bryant nodded
"Brilliant. You'll have to talk to the Keeper, though."
"Who is the keeper? Are they still out in the glade?" Bridget asked.
Paizlie smiled and turned around to signal Emmett over. He walked over and grinned. "Hey kids."
"Hey." Bridget said "And we're not kids."
Paizle grinned at Emmett and he returned the smile. "Listen up, as Keeper of the Runners, I think you two will do well in those positions. Sound good? Paizlie recommended you."She punched him lightly, smiling.
"Sure, but is someone going to explain what we do in there? Because I'm pretty sure it is more than just running." Bridget said.
Paizlie nodded. "I'll take you two on a little jog to show you what's going on. A'ight? Emmett, you want to come?"He hesitated. "Sure."
Paizle turned back to the greenies.
"Runners map out the maze. You each get assigned a section and you run throughout th entire maze, marking down every twist, corner, and path. But you have to watch out for Grievers."
"Sounds good. Run, map, don't get killed by grievers." Bridget said following Paizlie.Bryant followed suit.
Paizlie opened the shed doors. "Alright, suit up." She gestured to all the clothing, special shows, watches, and backpacks.
"Cool!" Bryant said suiting up with everything he could find.Bridget got a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. She also grabbed a small back pack and a watch. Then she moved on to weapons. There were all sorts to chose from but she chose a light weight knife that was about five inches long with a black handle.
"Make sure you can handle your weapon." Emmett said while he tightened the watch on his wrist.Paizlie was already dressed and filling a backpack with a few apples.
Bridget took the knife in her hand and looked at a spot on the wall right between two bags. She threw it and it lodged in a crack on the wall in between the two bags making her look better than she was.
"Nice." Paizlie chimed in as she grabbed her bow and arrow. Stuffing a few extra arrows in her pack.
Bridget walked over and grabbed the knife from the wall and put it in her belt loop. "So we ready to go?"
"Yeah. Emmett, Bryant, you guys ready?" Paizlie made her way to the entrance of the shed.Emmett nodded.
"Yup I'm ready to go." Bryant said throwing his bag on his shoulders.
Paizlie and Emmett headed put, only hesitating a bit as they stepped into the maze.The noise of The Glade was immediately cut off as they traveled forward silently, noting every corner mentally.
Bridget and Bryant followed them out into the maze.
After a few hours of constant moving, Paizle and Emmett sat down, breathing heavily.
(( wait, are Bridget and Bryant with them or did they go their own way?? ))
((Hmmm....it doesn't really matter. You can do what you want.))
(( Okay. )) Bridget and Bryant had been running for a while. "Do you want to stop to eat and sketch?" Bridget asked Bryant.
Bryant nodded. He sat down and pulled out a couple crackers while making a quick sketch."
Bridget looked at her watch. They were making good time. "Let's go we need to keep moving."
((They should get stuck in the maze overnight.))Paizlie and Emmett didn't even realize how behind they were as they got back up to stretch. She smile ad him and returned the gesture and they began sprinting again, side by side.
(( Yes! ))Bridget stopped to look at something on the wall. "Bryant, come take a look at this." The sign said W.I.C.K.E.D. "What do you make of it?"
"I think it is an acronym." Bryant said and then looked at his watch. "Holy S***! Bridget we need to get going."
Bridget glanced down at her watch. "We don't even have time to finish just run for the glade." Bridget spun around and started sprinting.
Bryant ran next to Bridget.
Suddenly, there was the piercing sound of metal scraping against the ground."Emmett....what time is it?" Paizlie asked, suddenly very worried.
He didn't answer as he stared in horror in the distance.
"Paiz....I think we're stuck here."
Paizlie suddenly got a faraway look in her eye as she ran away, feeling bile rise up in her throat.
Bridget and Bryant were fifty feet away when the doors started closing. "Bridget we aren't going to make it." Bryant said panting. They were running at a full sprint.The doors closed. "What are we going to do?" Bridget asked in horror. They were locked out here with the grievers. This should be some fun. She unsheathed her knife.
Emmett, stood there, in absolute shock. He couldn't move. Paizlie had ran around the corner to throw up.Suddenly, an ear wrenching scream pierced through the night. Paizlie was in trouble.
Bridget heard the scream. "What should we do?" Bryant thought "Well it might be a griever or it might be another glader in trouble. Let's go check it out." Bryant said pulling his bow out and notching an arrow in it.
They walked around the corner and saw Paizlie and...
(( I don't know what they saw. ))
Paizlie was breathing heavily, flat out against the wall as the horrible, blubbery beast came toward her. She already got it's attention by screaming. She cursed herself fir the action, the monster just startled her.But it was all over, now. She would be dead by morning. And she never got to tell Emmett......
Suddenly, her head whipped to where the two greenbeans were. She hissed at them to be quiet.
Bryant saw the thing towering over Paizlie and his first reaction was to -of course- shoot it. As soon as the arrow left his bow he regretted it. He knew it wouldn't make a dent in the the thing. "Bridget get ready to run."
The Griever turned toward them, it's spikes popping out of it's skin.Paizlie took the chance to get away to warn Emmett.
Bridget and Bryant turned and sprinted as if their lives depended on it. Which oh ya they did! Bryant turned and shot another arrow at the thing.
((Tomorrow, I'm leaving on a vacation until Friday.))Paizlie bounded toward, Emmett and practically tackled him onto the ground. He opened his mouth to say something bit she covered it as they crouched down on the maze grounds. They had lost track of the Griever. But that only meant it was going for the Greenies.
(( Aw... So you won't be ab;e to post?? ))Bridget didn't know what to do. The griever was slowly gaining on them and she knew they couldn't keep running all night. Maybe if they hadn't been running all day but they couldn't run for 24 hours straight.
((I don't think so. Maybe if there's wifi on the plane, I can post then. :) ))Emmett slowly stood up with Paizlie. He gulped. "Look, Paiz, we're probably going to die tonight, so I wanted to tell you that...."
Suddenly her lips were against his. But she broke apart from him for a smile. "I know. Let's go fight for life."
He grinned and followed after her, somewhat dazed.
(( Yay! ))Bryant shot another arrow into the thing. It seemed to slow it down for a second but then it just seemed madder. If that was possible.
"YO!" Paizlie's rough edge voice got the Griever's attention. It turned away from Bridget and Bryant and rolled it's way over to Emmett and Paizlie. Before anything else happened, Emmett screamed out to the Greenies. "RUN!"
Bridget didn't hesitate. She ran like the wind. She ran around a couple corners and found herself at the edge of some sort of cliff.Bryant almost Ran into Bridget since he had been looking behind him. "What the?"
"I don't know." Bridget said. "But I do know one thing. We need to move before one of them comes looking for us." Bridget said running back the way they had come.
Paizlie and Emmett were booking it. The Griever was gaining. She screamed with anger as she pushed herself forward, grabbing Emmett's hand.
Bridget and Bryant were running not really sure where they were going. Suddenly they rounded a corner and saw Paizlie and Emmett coming towards them. "Aww shuck." Bridget whispered and then turned around to run the other way.
They were both almost dying from exhaustion. The Griever hased all four of them. Suddenly Emmett yelled out: "GUYS! I have an idea! Run to the cliff!"((Ha. I'm totally stealing this from the book. ;) ))
