Newt

You had lived in the Glade for over three years, trying to find a way out of the Maze. You were a Runner alongside Minho and the other boys, and you were also the only girl, named Emilia. You were highly valued, and you always handled your job better than anyone else. Newt, your best friend, was always by your side, supporting you and helping whenever it was necessary.

After all that time spent in the Glade, you finally found the exit, only to realize that it had been some kind of trial. From then on, you stuck together; outside, a virus was raging, exactly like the effect of a Griever's sting.

You set up a base right across from the building where Teresa—who had betrayed you at one point—and Minho, whom you were trying to rescue, were located. Despite everything, you began to notice that Newt's behavior was changing, as if he had become more aggressive. You started to suspect that he was infected, but you didn't tell anyone because you didn't want anyone to panic.

After sneaking into the building where Minho was supposed to be, you, Newt, and Thomas disguised yourselves as guards, took weapons identical to theirs, and attempted to save Minho. You realized that there was very little time left to save Newt as well, so while no one was looking, you also got yourself infected. This meant that, just like Newt, your time was running out—but no one knew about this except for you.
