Maze Runner: The Scorch Novels & Stories

In their battle just now, the Scorpion Guardian had already used up a lot of his spiritual power to the point of near-exhaustion. “We will meet again someday, kid!” Just as he finished speaking, the Scorpion Guardian fled away frantically. He must have reached the fastest speed in history. Even Lucas was somewhat dumbfounded. He had to admit that the Scorpion Guardian made a wise decision. If he did not flee, he would have to face the wrath of Ms. Maren’s purple sword. “Thank you,” Ms. Maren thanked Lucas gratefully. “Don’t thank me, just give me some good stuff.”

The rider felt fear so deep his hands that gripped the handlebars shook intensely, he just couldn't bear the thought of losing her. The flames were blazing as Scar dismounted his bike in a hurry, the rest of the riders were close behind him and were picking up Myers without a second thought, leaving Scar to search the lot for his girl. Men and woman stood looking at the flames in sadness, some with tears in their eyes but that didn't phase Scar. He needed to know where she was. Though, that was when Scar took a good luck at the great inferno. It was Lani's shop.

I suddenly drop the stone to the ground, followed by my arm and body, as I kneel in a fetal position. "NO! I exclaim. I will not do that! It will be up to him to decide. Destiny will decide! YES!" I grab some wooden logs and stones and start building a labyrinth with several exits, all of which lead to fire and only one to safety. The scorpion, slowly and hesitantly, begins to walk along it. Suddenly we see the scorpion disappear behind the stones slowly, while the fire grows in intensity. We all remain a good twenty minutes in silence looking at the fire and wondering if the scorpion had met the fire, or if it would have suddenly appeared from some exit.

And when he spoke again, it wasn’t Harlan’s name that came out of his mouth. "You know," he said, his voice dripping with false sympathy, "I could take you back to Harlan. But I have... other plans." Ben stepped forward, his body tense, his grip tight on his rifle. "What do you want, Marcus?" Marcus chuckled, the sound low and humorless. "It's not about what I want. It’s about what Luther wants." The name hit me like a punch to the gut. Luther. The leader of The Scorchers—a ruthless gang that controlled the wastelands beyond Eagle’s Nest. They were known for raiding camps, burning everything in their path, and leaving nothing but ash behind.

I had no time to even process anything. Cael crouched by the central table where a rough map of standard maze layouts had been carved into wood. “Listen carefully,” he said. “The maze changes every sixty seconds. Paths close and new ones open. Somewhere inside are three crest tokens. Each token returned to center earns points. Defensive constructs guard them.” “Constructs meaning?” I asked. “Stone wolves,” Jessie said. I stared at her “Wolves?” She smiled. “Big ones.” Roran, who rarely spoke, grunted. “Hit hard too.”

Please. *Answer me.* The Scorchmark *cracked.* Not breaking. *Opening.* A seam appeared in the black glass. Widening. And from within— *Light.* Not silver. Not red. *Both.* Intertwined. Spiraling. *Beautiful.* The light surged upward. Coalesced. And when it faded— A blade remained. Hovering above the crack. Waiting. It was *magnificent.* The metal was dark—almost black—but traced with veins of silver and crimson that pulsed like a heartbeat.

Pelin seethed. The sand rumbled again beneath our feet, louder this time. “Now run!” I screamed, grabbing Pelin’s hand and clasping it tight. She didn’t hesitate anymore. We took off across the dunes, boots sinking into the shifting ground, breath ragged from the heat. Behind us, the sand cracked open with a deep, thunderous roar. Scorpio the massive scorpion emerged from the depths, crawling forward on its grotesque, skeletal limbs. Its long, spindly legs moved with a disturbing rhythm, each step sending a shiver down my spine. It didn’t attack right away, no, that would’ve been too merciful.

It'll be too late until he reaches there. His heart stuttered. Was she going on a death mission? No! She couldn't fight alone against Alonso. No! No! No! Hunter was already running out of the mansion as he mind-linked Rasmus, Luca, and his warriors.
