Chapter 8: Teresa

~Y/n P.O.V.~

I was sitting in my hammock, reading a book the creators had sent up, when I heard a lot of commotion coming from the tower. I put the book down before going to see what was happening.

I saw a crowd of boys at the bottom of the tower, covering themselves. I looked up and saw the girl at the top, throwing things down at the boys. I giggled a little bit before running to them, meeting Thomas and Minho half way there.

"Chuck, what's going on?" I heard Thomas ask the young boy.

"Girls are awesome." I heard Chuck laugh. I started walking more to the tower, an apple almost hitting me in the head, but I dodge on time.

"Leave me alone!" I heard the girl shout from the top, as she continued throwing stuff.

"Hey, throw one more of those things-" Gally was cut of by an apple hitting his head, making giggle a bit.

"We come in peace!" Frypan shouted with something over his head, keeping him protected.

"What happened?" I asked Newt.

"I don't think she likes us very much." Newt spoke as more things fell from the tower.

"What do you want from me?"

"We just wanna talk!"

"I'm warning you!" She threw something else, making all the boys hide.

"Take cover, ya'll! Take cover!" Fry shouted, hiding his head with some other boys.

"Hey, it's Y/n! It's y/n!" I shouted to the girl, making her stop and the boys go silent as they glanced between me and the girl. I saw her look over the edge at me, making me wave a little, "I'm gonna come up, okay?" When I said that, her head disappeared from my view.

I looked back at the boys, "Just me." I informed them, making Gally look at me with a little glare, but I ignored him. Newt nodded at me and I nodded back, giving him a small smile. I grabbed ahold of the ladder, "Alright, I'm coming up." I shouted to the girl, hoping she could hear me.

Once I got to the top, I opened the wooden door, facing the girl, then gasping once I saw her holding a machete close to my face.

"Woah, alright, calm down." I said, putting both my hands up, showing her I meant no harm.

"Where am I?" She asked me quickly, keeping her gaze on me, "What is this place? Why can't I remember anything?"

"This is all normal. Okay?" I reassure her, still keeping my hands up, "We've all been through this. Your name will come back to you in a couple days. It's the one thing that-"

"Teresa." She cut me off.

"What?" I asked her curiously.

"My name," she paused, "It's Teresa." She explained.

"Teresa," I nodded, "I'm y/n. But, you already knew that, though, I guess."

"They said I kept saying your name in my sleep," She told me, making me look at her curiously, "Who are you?" She questioned me.

I thought for a moment, before shaking my head, "I don't know," I said, looking at her, "I can't remember. None of us here can remember anything. We all woke up here just like you did." I saw her grip loosen a little bit on the machete, which made me slowly bring my hands to it, planning to take it from her grasp. She saw and tightened her grip again, "Hey, I promise," I told her, "I'm gonna take this. Okay?"

She let me take it from her hand, our eyes locked the whole time. This is definitely the girl from my dreams. I just don't remember her that much.

"What's going on up there?" I heard a voice speak from the bottom of the tower. I looked over the ledge, seeing Gally, Newt, Thomas, and Chuck at the bottom, looking up at me. "Is she coming down?"
