The Maze Runner


Though he is the youngest of the Gladers, Chuck is very helpful -- but likes to talk a lot. After being the "Greenbean" in the Glade for a month, he witnesses the arrival of a teenage boy named Thomas, who Chuck almost instantly befriends. Chuck is a bubbly happy kid. Thomas learns more about the Gladers from both Chuck and Alby, the leader of the Gladers.

The next day, Chuck discovers that the box elevator has delivered a girl to the Glade and quickly informs Alby and Newt about the incident. After Alby and Newt pull the unnamed girl out of the box, the girl wakes up and questions her surroundings, before falling into a coma.

A few days later, Chuck, Thomas, Newt, and Alby await the return of the the keeper of the Runners, Minho. Minho reports seeing a dead Griever, one of the monstrous inhabitants of the Maze. Alby, though reluctant at first, travels into the Maze with Minho to search for the deceased Griever. Sometime later, Minho returns to the Glade with an injured Alby, who is stung by the Griever.

Chuck is later informed that Minho is training Thomas to become a Runner. During the evening of one of Thomas's days in training, Chuck witnesses the comatose girl awaken from her coma and alerts Alby and Newt after Thomas and Minho return to report a discovery that an area called the Cliff contained a way to escape the Maze.

Later, Teresa and Thomas run to the Cliff while the others stay behind to distract the Grievers. Chuck goes with the two in case they need help inside the Griever Hole. Eventually, Teresa sucessfully typed the code into the computer and as a result, a tunnel leading out of the Maze was unlocked and the Grievers were deactivated. Chuck, along with the rest of the Gladers, used the dark tunnel to escape the Maze.

The Gladers eventually made their way to a chamber at the end of the tunnel and confronted the WICKED agents who were there. Before the Gladers could strike, however, Gally emerged from the shadows with a knife. He hrew it at Thomas, but Chuck jumped in the way to save him, dying in his best friend's arms. Thomas, angered at his friend's death, attacked Gally and seemingly killed him while a group of adults entered the room and disposed of the WICKED agents and ultimately rescued the Gladers.

The Death CureEdit

It is revealed in The Death Cure that WICKED was controlling Gally when he threw the knife, and what's more, they also controlled Chuck to make him jump in the way of the knife. It was all just one of the variables, to get the patterns of Chuck, in his last moments, and Thomas and the other Gladers.

AppearanceEdit

Chuck was about twelve or thirteen years old. He is decribed as pudgy, with long brown hair and blue eyes.
