Disclamer: everything belongs to James Dashner, exept for the plot and a few caracters.

"Come on sleepy heads, we don't want you to miss breakfast now do we?" shouts a voice from a far far distance.

"Oy, sleeping beauty, heard me, you need to wake UP" says the voice again but it's much closer this time. In response I mumble something into my pillow that sounds like

"Justgimmemeonemoreminute" Suddenly I can feel a cold breeze washing over my body.
"What the... "

" Now you're gonna get up sleepy head or will I have to drag you out of bed. There's a meeting in five in the cafeteria. Be there! " said the voice before going wherever her owner was going.
----
The moment I enter the cafeteria everybody goes quite. I hate it when they do that, going all silent, giving me the feeling that I'm a super stranger. So I just ignore them and walk over to the table were are seated Minho, Newt, Frypan, Despina, Brenda, Ariette and Brooklyn .

"Not going to get yourself something to eat before we start the meeting? " asks Frypan. Guess he really likes food.

" Nah, I'm not hungry."

"Slept well Tommy " asks Newt.

" Hmm." is all I answer, but then I ask "what's this meeting all about. "

" Well, since we arrived here we have a meeting every morning. We plan the day and stuff. " answers Despina. 

"And our first subject for the day is, what we're going to do about Teresa." says the girl Sonya. First I don't understand but it gets all clear to me. Man, I had completely forgotten about the fight last night. Oh, oh, I'm in so much trouble, those girls are surely going to kill me for hurting her. I start

"Yeah, about that, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be so harsh on h-" but then Despina interrupts me

"Don't worry sleepy head, you won't get into any big trouble. Most of us don't like Teresa. She treated us like klunk when we were in that stupid desert. But even if we hate her, we must show the other girls that we're not going to let the boys go away just like that. So, you are going to have some punishment. We already decided what it's going to be. Minho, I'll let you explain. "

" Thanks Pina , so Tommy, it's quite simple actually. See, no one wants to take the post of big leader, leader of the two groups, boys and girls. It's quite a job, but we assigned you to it, well , we voted and decided it's you. That means go sleeping last, waking up first. Be a part of every meeting, organise meetings, and find a way to escape wicked. So you have no choice but to accept this task."

What the hell, if I have duties, how am I gonna find my saviour. Seriously, I will have no time. Sure, it could actually help me in a way, I could ask every girl to present herself so I could hear her voice. Then it struck me, what if what if she died. She possibly couldn't have died. I mean she's, she's a miracle, she can't just die that way, no way. I sure must have completely zoned out again, because suddenly I can feel two hands on my shoulders shaking me. It's Newt.

"What... "

"Bloody hell Tommy, really, stop zoning out, you're freaking us out."

"We didn't think it would freak you out so much, we could find-" says Brenda.

"No I'm fine, just did anybody die sins the desert, sins Teresa took me away from the girls camp?"Oh god, what did I do! Really first of all that sounded stupid, then they're going to wonder why I'm asking and stupid stupid me! 

"Why you're asking Tommy?" what did I say, and of course it had to be Newt to ask that stupid question. Quick, quick an excuse

" Well, hum, I haven't been here for long, so I haven't seen everybody, and was just hum wondering."

"Well, nobody died sins you were captured by the girls." Somebody answers, probably Minho. Everybody seems quite ok with my explanation except for Despina, she's looking at me strangely, I think she understood that I'm actually looking for someone. And it seems to make her happy. And my saviour's not dead.
