Bravery In The Maze Runner
The theme in the Maze Runner is Bravery. Thomas shows an insane amount of bravery by going into the maze while the walls are closing to save Alby and then once Minho left and went to go save himself Thomas stayed and saved Alby.

The poem is about how bravery gives us the power to break through our barriers, the ones that hold us back. In this case the barrier is the maze.Those who conquer this great foe,
We call him a Hero.
We call him brave,
For he seems unafraid.
The person who conquered this great foe was Thomas when he and Minho made it through the maze and the gladers called them heroes.
It gives us the power, so when it says it seem like he is unafraid but reallly thomas fear was extended and he overcame it with courage and he led everyone

    Courage is characterized as mental or moral strength to surpass notions of fear. As demonstrated by Atticus Finch and Mrs Dubose in Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird, the development of courage gives the character’s strength and courage to hold their heads high, while fearing none. Harper Lee depicts the theme of courage incalculable amount of times, detailing courage as “ when you know you’re licked before you being, but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what.” (Chapter 11, Page 124) All of the characters have an alternate kind of perspective of what courage is exactly, which will be examined in depth.…

    His courage is highlighted when Alby, Minho and he are trapped in the maze for an entire night. Minho abandons them and Thomas is left to save the unconscious Alby. “He thought of the wall, the ivy. Minho hadn’t explained, but he had made it sound as if climbing the walls was impossible. Still... A plan formed in his mind. It all depended on the unknown abilities of the Grievers, but it was the best thing he could come up with.” (120-121). This illustrates that he is courageous because, even though he has never been in the maze before, he braves the unknown to survive, as well as save Alby. He is also courageous while in the Griever Hole with Chuck and Teresa. Teresa is trying to punch in a code and set them free from the Maze, but a Griever enters the Hole. Thomas has to be daring or they will risk being stung by the Griever, failing to solve the Maze and never being able to return to their normal…
