Title: A Hunch
Requested by anon:
Could you please do a minhoxreader imagine
where minho is in WICKED and when Thomas tries to go to Theresa the reader (who
is one of the guards girls) stop him and she’s a badass and idk. So when they
try to run away the reader helps them because she feels something toward minho
and viceversa. Love your blog!
I carefully eyed those boys from the table
that was almost at the other end of the room. The blond, the Asian with the
quiff and the restless brown-haired boy especially got my attention.
There was something about them that I liked a
lot.
Maybe I was just trying to distract myself
from that stupid and useless job guarding the doors where some girls and other
people were.
I didn’t know much about that place or the
people I was working for, I just took the job because it would provide me with a safe
place to be and a way to survive in that terrible world that awaited us out
there.
Still, I had always felt kind of suspicious
about them. A hunch told me they weren’t as good as they wanted us to think
they were.
Maybe that was why I those three boys got my
attention, because they seemed to think there was something going on just like
I was. Something not so good.
And they seemed rebelious and smart.
I got back to reality when I noticed how the
brown haired boy stood up and walked in my direction.
I was supposed to be guarding the door, and
something told me it was precisely what that guy was going for.
Indeed, the boy stood before me as he watched
through the glass that showed the inside of the other room where girls walked
along.
I put a hand on his chest and gave him a
tired look.
“You can’t come in, kid” I told him with
confidence and determination.
“I just want to see her” His eyes were fixed
in the glass, probably looking at one of the girls.
I briefly looked over my shoulder to see a
black haired girl with blue eyes that was going through the room.
“No one unauthorized can go through” I said
tiredly, pushing him softly to give him a hint that he should stop being such a
pain and walk away instead.
The boy stared at me, and he looked truly
concerned for his friend. Maybe they were a couple or something.
“What is she doing there?” He asked me,
obviously sad that they were apart.
“I honestly don’t know” All I was told was
that I had to make sure no one passed, so I wasn’t lying. “Just get back to
your seat before you get in trouble, kid”
The boy sighed and slowly turned around,
heading towards the table were his friends waited for him, with faces that
showed they had no idea what he was doing.
And suddenly, he lunged at me, trying to get
to the door.
“Hey!” I pushed him so he wouldn’t get past me while he kept struggling.
So I just decided to bring him down.
With one leg, I swept both of his feet so he
fell heavily to the floor.
“Thomas!” His friends came running by, but I
wasn’t going to let a kid get on my nerves even if a crowd of more kids ran to
me.
I sat over him as he lied face down on the
floor and I held his arms behind his back.
“No, let him go” One of his friends, a guy
that looked older than them with dark skin, pleaded.
I sighed and looked at them in exasperation.
The blond seemed restless, but the Asian stared at me admiringly and at his friend annoyed.
I stood up and set that Thomas kid free.
“I’m just doing my job, kids” Was all I said
as I brushed myself off and pulled Thomas up. “Make sure your curious friend
here doesn’t get on my nerves”
The group of boys nodded and took his friend
away from there.
Still, the Asian kept staring at me with a
small smirk playing on his lips.
“What are you looking at?” I challenged him,
raising an eyebrow.
The boy chuckled as he eyed me up and down.
“Nothing” Before he walked away to join his
friends, he looked at me one last time with that smirk on his lips.
Looked like that boy liked me. He wasn’t so bad himself.
I kept my eyes on them as they disappeared,
thinking that Thomas kid was pretty cunning.
I felt how he took my key card, but I played
fool, got back to my spot at the door and pretended I didn’t.

Not too long after that, an alarm sounded all
around the complex.
Seemed like the kids had agreed to run away
and found a way to do it. I smiled to myself at the thought of those kids being
that clever.
Still, I stuck to doing my job and I ran
around the corridors trying to find them.
The alarms were blasting through the whole building, red lights shining in the corridors and giving them an eerie feeling that gave me goosebumps.
That those people were so concerned about a bunch of kids leaving reinforced my theory that something was going on in that place.
I ran for a while, searching for them and listening through my transmisor to see if anyone had seen them. And after many minutes of craziness, I bumped
into them.
I had been given an electric gun, so I held
it high when I saw them.
It was them, all the guys from before, plus a
girl. I guessed that was the girl Thomas so urgently wanted to see. His
girlfriend or something.
They were running before they stopped before
me, so I figured they were being chased already.
“Move” I told them calmly but sternly, yet
they stayed in their place. “Move!”
The Asian kid was the one that held the
blond’s shirt to pull him away, and with that the rest of the group did as I
told them.
Once they set aside, I fired my gun and hit
the people that tried to get them.
The kids stared at me in awe.
“Let’s go before more of them come!” I
started running, and soon enough they followed.
“Why are you helping us?” The one with the
quiff asked me, his eyes analyzing me deeply.
While we ran, me leading the way and directing them through the corridors, I looked over my shoulder to him.
“A hunch” I simply replied, honestly feeling
that it was the right thing to do. That they were right about everything and
were right to try to run away too.
Because I was running away with them.
I didn’t care what was out there anymore, I
was sick of being lied to and working for someone that had so many secrets.
They were definitely evil in one way or another.
And I wasn’t going to stay to see how evil
they truly were.
“Follow me, I know the way out”
The group and I ran all around the place.
Thanks to me and my knowledge about that place, it would be so much easier to
escape.

We made it out. It wasn’t easy, but we did
it.
Luckily, the group had trusted me enough to
let them out. It seemed like they realized we shared the same hatred towards
those people. Especially towards Janson, that idiot was obnoxious and odious.
Still, what awaited us outside that place was
nothing but the Scorch. The horrible unforgiving and deserted world that the Flare virus left
behind.
All of us jogged tiredly along the sand,
looking forward to find somewhere cool and safe to rest for a while.
In the Scorch I felt more vulnerable, and
even though I could still defend myself against any enemies or Cranks, I
couldn’t fight the heat or the sand physically.
I looked at each member of the group as we
moved silently.
Thomas, the restless brown haired boy, lead the way. He was like the unofficial leader of the gang.
The girl, whose name seemed to be Teresa as
Thomas called her, who appeared to be strong and determined, followed in second place. I liked her.
That was about the names I knew. There was
still the blond guy, the Asian, the other guy with a grumpy face, a younger
kid, a dark skinned boy with a friendly face and another kid who was very
quiet.
It was still night and the sand flew around
us with the nocturnal wind, making me squint my eyes.
“Here!” Teresa called us, approaching an abandoned building that looked like a huge shopping mall.
“Teresa, wait!” Thomas called her, running
after her.
“Get over it and go in” I told the kid,
rolling my eyes. “For now it’s the only refuge we have”
I threw myself in, having to run down a
mountain of sand that was right under the window we were sneaking in from.
One after another, the kids followed me, the
first one being the girl.
When everyone was in, we briefly looked
around to examine the place.
“What’s the plan?” The British blond guy asked.
All eyes were on me, since I was the older
and more experienced one.
“For now we should stay here, find some
clothes and supplies to survive the Scorch” That said, I started to walk to
explore.
“She’s right” Thomas mumbled behind me as the
others spoke to him.
“Hey” A hand held my arm, so I turned around
to see who it was.
The Asian boy.
“What?”
“You did great back there” I guessed that was
his way of thanking me. I didn’t know him much, but he didn’t seem like the guy
who’d say thanks or sorry just like that.
I nodded in silence and proceeded to keep on
walking.
“I’m Minho, by the way” He gripped to my arm
tighter for a moment, still holding me back.
“Y/N” I simply replied, snatching my arm away
from his and walking.
He positioned himself next to me and walked
along.
“Why were you working for them?”
“It kept me alive” I simply said, letting my
eyes wander around as I absently answered him.
“You knew they were evil, right?”
“I had that feeling, yeah”
“Do you know who they were?”
“No”
“WICKED”
I stopped on my tracks and stared at Minho in
disbelief.
I had heard about WICKED. That evil organization
that experimented with immune kids to try and find a cure. But their ways was
to lock them inside a Maze like they were rats, just mere subjects. They didn’t
treat them like human beings.
“So you kids were in a Maze?” I felt a
certain admiration for those kids.
It couldn’t be easy to be stuck in a gigantic prison like Maze that apparently was filled with monsters. And it couldn’t have been easy
to find their way out either.
“We’re the ones left that made it out” He replied
in an eerie tone.
I placed a hand on his shoulder and nodded at
him.
“You’ve got guts” I mumbled, getting to like
him even more.
Ever since I lay eyes on him, there was
something that seemed very special about Minho. It wasn’t only that he had
survived a Maze, that he was a fighter.
It was something else within me that made me
want to have him around even if I was too stubborn to let him or anyone know
that.
It was a hunch that told me he was a nice guy
that just wanted to keep his friends alive.
“So are you staying with us?” Judging by the
twinkle in his eyes, he expected my answer to be yes. He didn’t want to drift
away from me either.
I smiled softly and nodded.
“Yes. And I will help you through the Scorch”
A hunch had told me that those people I
worked for weren’t good. And since I just found out they were WICKED, that
hunch was right.
And I was about to find out if my hunch about
Minho was right as well.
