The Scorch Trials

This is book 2 of the maze runner and already so much has gone wrong. at the end of the last book, the gladers were saved by some people who invaded wicked (people who previously had gladers) then in the beginning of the next book, those who saved them are already dead. Thomas lost his ability to do telepathy with teresa and she's also been taken back by wicked. they meet another kid who claims he was also from the maze, but no one knows him. Thomas thought after they left the glade all their troubles would be done, but thomas didn't realize that they were only half way there. with this who claims he's from the glade and the tattoos that suddenly appeared on everyones neck, and the note they found that teresa was a betrayer!

Thomas cares

Thomas (In the maze runner) cares for people even if he doesn't know them. Over the book thomas does countless things that help people he bearly knows like when he saved Minho and Alby. Thomas puts the lives of others over his own. Thomas shows everyone in the glade that even though he was the greenie (new kid) he has a lot of courage.
      One example of thomas putting the lives of others over his was when he broke the number 1 rule of the glade, "No going into the maze if not a runner!". Minho and Alby went to check something in the maze, but unexpected things happened making them to far away to the gates of the glade before they closed. Thomas was watching and couldn't stand to watch  two gladers die in the maze, so in a rescue attempt thomas stepped into the maze. With all three of them being in the maze, Minho took off thinking there was no chance of survival, but thomas in his gut knew he had to try, before the grievers got them. so with alby unconscious, thomas was trying to find away to keep the grievers from alby, before they got there. he finally had the idea to get alby high up the wall so grievers wouldn't notice him. he then got the grievers attention leading them away until morning, saving alby's life with help from minho.
       Another example of his courage is him telling chuck (youngest glade) that he would do anything he can to get chuck out of the glade back to his old family. Thomas was willing to put his life on the line in order to get chuck out of the glade, out of the maze. Sadly enough as soon as they got out of the maze chuck saved thomas's life sacrificing himself. it brought thomas to tears seeing how he tried so hard to get chuck out of the glade. but this shows thomas was willing to put his life up in order to save chuck.
        In conclusion thomas has showed many times through out the book that he cared for people even if he didnt know them that well like minho and alby. thomas always thinks there is away to help giving him a optimistic characteristic.

Bullying - Social Awareness

Bullying can have a major effect on some people whether it's physical bullying, cyber bullying or anything else. Some kids who like making friends, might take bullying to the heart and then will do some unthinkable stuff to end it all. Others may just block it out and keep on walking. But back to those who have a hard time blocking it out, they do unthinkable stuff like not to long ago, on the News, there were about 3 kids who committed suicide because they were tired of being bullied and were also scared of what would happen if they told someone and the bully found out. so for those who are getting bullied, if your having thoughts of doing bad things or worse, don't do it, find a teacher or a guardian and talk to them about it.

Poverty- Social awareness

All over the world people are poor. They may not have food to eat, or beds to sleep in, or even medicine for when they get sick. All they have is their communities, or in some cases nothing at all.
 These people struggle to live in our world, but it is to hard. They do whatever it takes not to live for that year but just to make it to tomorrow. Many countries in places like africa are affected by this state of never ending ending poverty. something i would say to do is to eat all your food, food that you waste could be food that they never got to poor countries, so don't waste.

B: I can only eat once a day.

A: I don't need all this food today.
B: I must eat all this so none is wasted.
A-B: Food shouldn't be wasted.

The maze runner: Thoughts on Thomas

Thomas has a lot on his mind, having herd of the ending being triggered, feeling a sudden connection to Teresa as soon as she arrived and so much happening in such short time after he arrived in the glade. When Teresa triggered the ending, people started seeing the effects, the weekly supplies stopped arriving, the artificial sun disappeared and the gate to the maze not closing at night. After thomas and Teresa talked for a little he got a idea using the maps that the runners created. They figured something out but didn't know what to apply it to. thats when thomas thought of the only way to save the gladers... getting stung by a griever, going through the changing, and remembering about before the glade and ways to escape. i think thomas was shocked at what he saw and also thought of it to be expected.

Unexpectedly, something that has never happened in the glade before happened. Another newcomer appears a day after, this one, the first girl ever. she has a message with her saying she's the last one ever. Thomas feels a strange connection to the girl. all this happened a day after thomas arrived then more unexpected things happened. thomas managed to kill 4 grievers and survive a entire night in the maze, something no other glader has ever done. Then the glade leader alby is stuck by a needle from a griever and has to go through the changing. It is when you get special medicine that gives you back your memory of the past before in the glade. They later hold a gathering about thomas at his actions, deciding what to do with him. Newt, the secondary leader in place of alby, decides that they need to make thomas get as much memory back as possible since so many special events happened a few days after he got there.
