Summary
Thomas wakes up in a metal box, surrounded by a bunch of teenagers staring at him.
They say he is in something called The Glade, where all the boys here have lost their memories, and are just surviving, while a mysterious source sends them supplies and people. Thomas is immediately on alert and doesn't trust the situation he is thrown into.
But there's one boy who makes everything just slightly more bearable.
Newt.
So while Thomas desperately tries to find a way out for everyone, he is also battling his feelings for Newt, and Newt is doing the same. Can Thomas free everyone while coming to terms with his feelings for Newt?(This does not follow the original story. There is some overlap, but the details are different.)

Summary
During a very normal day in the Glade, Newt experiences severe head spins. The rest of the Gladers pass it off as food poisoning from Frypan’s tacky breakfasts, or prolonged sun exposure– but, even after several recovery days, Newt’s head spins are constant. The Medjacks are worried, everyone in the Glade is. Newt doesn’t understand what is going on– but six months after the start of his head spins a new Greenie arrives, the same one he sees during his head spins.

“Thomas. With all due respect, you had a Crank on your back. He could’ve bitten your neck! Do you have any idea how dangerous that was?”Thomas hadn’t thought of that. His face flushed with embarrassment and he pretended to load his gun, “Well he didn’t.” He muttered.

Summary
“You’re sure?” Thomas whispered, low enough it felt meant only for him.
Newt didn’t even know what the question was. The answer hadn’t changed. Of course he was sure. Never had he known certainty like this—nothing else held weight, only the boy staring back with those steadfast, familiar brown eyes.

Summary
Thomas Murphy is a firefighter. His job is to put out fires and rescue the people in it. There's only one rule: never ever get close to the victim. But see, Thomas has never been great at following the rules.
Newt's home got burned by a fire. Officials say he started it himself in order to get insurance since he's struggling financially, but it's not possible. Newt. Didn't. Do. It.
Thomas rescues Newt from a fire. Gets close to Newt (exactly what he's not supposed to do), and together, they come to the realization that things aren't what they seem, taking them down a dark road of Newt's traumatic childhood and everything in between. The question is: can they figure things out and prove Newt's innocence all before it's too late? And maybe, just maybe find love along the way, too.

Summary
As they run out and away from the commotion, Thomas realizes that Frypan, Brenda, and Jorge are nowhere to be seen. He stops, confused, before something, someone, grabs him and pulls him away from Newt.
He struggles, still having no idea what the hell is going on. Then a "Get your bloody hands off me!" makes his head snap up. Newt is being pulled away by someone in a military-like outfit, gun in one hand, Newt's wrist in the other. Thomas is filled with a sudden rage, and he's about to snap at that stupid soldier, but then he's being shoved into a white van, and Newt is disappearing from view.

Summary
Thomas didn’t plan on caring this much. He just wanted answers — about the Maze, about the Creators, about everything.
But when a simple repair job goes wrong and Newt nearly gets crushed by a falling wall segment, Thomas realizes there are some things he’s more afraid of losing than the way out.
Between Minho’s teasing, Gally’s glare, and Chuck’s unfiltered questions, something quiet starts building between the two of them — slow, careful, and impossible to ignore. -

Summary
No—he’s seen what it did to his best friend, Thomas Greenie. How Thomas had shut down and hasn’t spoken to either him nor Minho since being reaped himself two years ago and returning as the crowned victor. How Thomas is now nothing but a WICKED mutt, working on the same arenas he himself had fought to death in. He can’t let Lizzy go through that. He can’t let her go through all that alone. He can’t let her die.
And so Newt makes his decision. Teresa hadn’t even begun to pick out the district male’s name before:
“I volunteer as tribute!”
Or, when Newt’s 12 year old sister's name is drawn at the Reaping, Newt volunteers as the male tribute so that he can protect her through the Games and ensure she gets home, no matter what the cost. Even if it means reconnecting with his former best friend who's now his mentor and may or may not have a small crush on him that Newt is completely oblivious to. -
