The desert sun bled out over the horizon, casting long, skeletal shadows across the exhausted Gladers. Minho was gone, snatched away by WCKD in a whirlwind of grit and betrayal. You stood paralyzed at the site of the abduction, the air still tasting of ozone and dust, haunted by the image of his hand battering against the glass. Thomas had lunged to pull you back from the edge, but the memory was already seared into your mind: Minho's eyes, wide and fractured with terror, screaming your name just as the doors hissed shut and sealed his fate. The ensuing silence was suffocating, heavy with the crushing realization of what had been lost.
