Later on he was sent by the right arm to the WICKED facility to plant a device, when he got there the Rat Man welcomed him and told him what was his last trial. He had to comply with a operation to his brain the last step was for him to give his brain to WICKED. But as he was on the operating room a blast was heard an alarms were turned on. Later on, Thomas woke up on the operating room with a note next to him. It was from the chancellor of WICKED. It said that with the trails they've already been through they have more then enough data to build the cure, but some people disagreed with her and that's why they wanted his brain. She printed a map with a secret passage out of WICKED but he neede to get out the new subject out of the Maze first. He, Minho, Brenda, Teresa, Jorge and Gally all went to save the new test subjects. They confronted Grievers, WICKED soldiers but finally they had made it to the secrete Flat Trans were the chancellor promised to be a escape. But they've met with the Rat Man and other guards. But the bombs that the Right Arm planted were seten off and the whole building was falling apart. In a attempt on saving Thomas, Teresa got crushed by one of the boulders from the falling ceiling. All the people crossed the Flat Trans and appeared on a shack in the middle of the woods. After everyone got through Brenda closed the Flat Trans for good, and then it was clear to Thomas what the chancellor's intention were. There wouldn't be a cure, she just reunited the best immunes of the world and gave them place to live in order for the human race not to go extinct. They were the legacy of the human race.A part that I found very shocking was the final encounter Thomas had with Newt in the dessert when Newt forced Thomas to shoot him.
"Shut up! Just Shut up!I trusted you! Now do it!"
"I can't."
"Do it!""I can't!" How could Newt ask him to do something like this? How could he possibly kill one of his best friends?
"Kill me or I'll kill you. Kill me! Do it!"
"Newt..."
"Do it before I become one of them!"
"I..."
"KILL ME!" And then Newt's eyes cleared, as if he'd gain one last trembling gasp of sanity, and his voice softened. "Please, Tommy. Please." With his heart falling into a black abyss, Thomas pulled the trigger." (pg 250)
This was a real intense scene since Newt was one of the main characters and now he just got killed by the main character in such a tragic way. I could only imagine the burden Thomas must've felt after that, and then telling the event to Minho wasn't going to be easy since Minho knew Newt for much longer than Thomas.
Another shocking part of the story was when the group was escaping from the WICKED facility and everything was falling apart."He watched, hypnotized, as it fell toward him. Teresa appeared in the corner of his vision, her image barely discernible through the clogged air. Her body slammed into his shoving him toward the maintenance room. His mind emptied as he stumbled backward and fell, jut as the huge piece of the building landed on top of Teresa, pinning her body, only head and an arm jutted out from under its girth." (pg 317)
This was a real surprise to me and a sad moment since all the book me and Thomas have been seeing Teresa as the villain and now she just save his life proving that she only wanted to protect him. Thomas couldn't believe it either since he believed he didn't cared about Teresa anymore but now he realized how much it meant to have her.
I really enjoyed the ending since it kind of gave a theme of reborn meaning that there was a new start for humanity a second chance to change things. I really enjoyed to have so many twists and turns in the book because it made it far more interesting than previous
series I've read before.
