Chapter 57-60

In chapter fifty-seven, Thomas entered through the Griever Hole, Teresa had already found the computer and pointed that out to Thomas. Thomas made Teresa type out the codes while he fought of a Griever that had fell out from the Griever Hole.  As Thomas fends of Griever he killed it by stabbing it with a spear, which oozed out a yellow fluid which smelled like oil. Teresa has struck a problem; she couldn’t enter the last code ‘PUSH’.  With no Griever to distract him he ran to Teresa to help her but he couldn’t find a way to fix the problem and another Griever shot out from the Griever Hole and was about to attack Chuck.  It was Chuck who had also noticed that there was a red button bellow the computer and that was what they were supposed to ‘PUSH.’ The button said ‘Kill the Maze.’

The Griever in front of Chuck fell over and probably all the other Grievers in the maze too. Teresa and Thomas were wondering if anyone survived up top. Then Minho came down the Griever Hole. He told Thomas that half the people died, but he was being an optimist and said at least half of the people survived. Then more people fell from the Griever Hole and they also found a tube leading to somewhere else. Everyone slid down the tube leading them to a room where the Creators are.

In chapter fifty-nine, none of the Creators moved except for one. It was a woman, an actual adult and with her came Gally. Gally seemed pale and weak, Thomas asked Gally what has happened to him. Gally forced himself to say ‘They control me’ then started to chock himself like what happened to Alby after his Changing. Then Gally got a knife out from his pocket and threw it at Thomas. For some reason Thomas couldn’t move, he was too scared, but something or someone jumped in the way of the knife. It was Chuck, the knife was deep in his chest and dark blood started pouring out of his chest. Chuck’s last message was to tell his mother that he loves her. Then he lay on the ground, lifeless.

Thomas stopped crying and held himself together. Once he did the woman said that ‘everything happens for a reason.’ Then randomly people broke into the room and shot the woman and killed other people that worked for WICKED. The man who seemed to be the leader told them to run as if their life’s depended on it. He also said that he would explain everything later, When Thomas left the building he realized how hot and musty the air felt and got onto the bus that belonged to those people and drove off with them.

In chapter fifty-seven I was impressed by Chuck and by how much he had helped kill the maze. If it wasn’t for Chuck, Teresa and Thomas probably would have failed and everybody would have been killed. I think this would be an example of street smart because with regular smarts Teresa and Thomas would still be looking for a way to put the code in but with street smarts you would have thought that there was a button that would need to be pushed. In chapter fifty nine I almost forgot about Gally and assumed that he had died. When he told everyone that the Creators were controlling him it made me remember what Thomas said about the Creators also altering the minds of some people. I was deeply saddened for the fact that Chuck died and wasn’t able to find a family member in the real world. When the random people broke into the room and shot people I didn’t think that Thomas and the rest of the surviving Gladers would follow them without asking any questions.
