RP#2 The Maze Runner

        In the book The Maze Runner by James Dashner Thomas is the main character. the book is all about how Thomas and oher kids are stranded in what is called the Glade. Every month a new kid appears in the "Box". According to the Gladers they were sent here by somebody who watches them everyday. When Thomas appears he's memory is wiped just like everyone else's when they first came. Also when Thomas came he was timid and afraid of everything. But as the book goes on and Thomas get's stuck in the maze and survives the night he changes into a confident and not so timid person. All in all Thomas is changed forever.
       We know Thomas changed into a confident and not so timid character because in the book it says that Thomas at first was scared of gally. Gally was like the bully in each school big, cruel, and mean. But as he went through the maze at night and survived he thought Gally was pathetic. In fact he wasn't afraid anymore because he had done the impossible. I wouldn't fear anything if I had survived the impossible. In fact I would stand up to him because I would have felt very confident. Another example of how we know he changed is when he is in the maze. In the maze he was by himself and only helping his fellow Glader Alby who was stung by a griever. Alby was unconscious and couldn't help. Thomas had to help him and he was no longer afraid of what would happen to him. he helped Alby and saved his life. He changed because at first he was scared but then he became confident. All in all Thomas was a very smart character.
