Aurora was one of the first people to enter the glade, being the only girl was an interesting predicament to say the least...
[Newt x Female Oc]
[The Maze Runner - 1]
Three years. It has been three years since the first twenty people got put into the Glade. They where expecting a new Glader and then have their traditional bonfire where they are not only going to celebrate the new person but also some what celebrating the fact that most people from the first twenty was still alive.
A lot of thing have changed since the beginning, all the 'bigger' characters of the glade got their own rooms. So practically all the keepers and then first and second in command. This meaning Rory got her own room which coincidently next to both of her best friends in the glade, Alby and Newt who was first and second in command. They all decided that Rory was more powerful than first and second in command but where yet to think of a name.
If any decisions where made Newt and Alby could agree but would bring it up to Rory who almost always agreed with them anyway. Honestly though, Rory didn't really act like she was any bigger and better than the others. She acted the same because she didn't want to think about the fact she was someone they would all look to if something suddenly went wrong. The day was almost over when the alarm to say the box was approaching sounded.
Everyone gathered around the concrete slab in the ground that was slowly opening. When it was fully apart Newt and Gally took each metal door and pulled it open while Rory jumped in. Inside was a boy, he looked nothing over the age of thirteen and fear was evident in his eyes. The girl smiled sweetly before crouching in front of the boy.
"Hey I'm Aurora but everyone calls me Rory, what's your name" Rory spoke softly
"i um... i uh don't remember. Why don't i remember" The boy asked quietly.
"that's normal, we all couldn't remember when we first arrived but your safe i promise. Now do me a favour and grab my hand, we can talk when were out of this" Rory smiled and stood up, holding out her hand for the young boy to take. Rory was only sixteen herself but if this boy was thirteen then at least she could somewhat relate to him. He wearily grabbed her hand and she helped him stand up.
"now you see that rope they just threw down, could you climb out while i stand bringing up the things you came with" The boy nodded and headed over to the rope, Rory looked up at the boys who where all wearing a slightly shocked face at how soft she was talking to the 'greenie' as the Gladers would call them. She didn't know why but she felt the need to protect and care for the boy like her life depended on it.
Gally got into the box and helped Rory pass everything to the boys on the grass, this was a weekly occurrence. Someone jumps into the box to get their necessities, Rory gets given a 'care package' each month filled with tampons, pads and occasionally a heating pad you had to snap for it to get warm. She was thankful for it but like everyone would much rather be out there in the real world, whatever the real world was.
When they got all of the boxes and containers out Rory took it upon herself to give the new boy a tour, she showed him where everyone worked, she showed him the gates of the maze and told him all about the rules. She also told him that she was his age when they first came up and she was now sixteen. He seemed to like stories, he listened and added assets that wasn't actually happening but would be cool if it did.
When the two where done with the tour she introduced him to Newt, her best friend. She told him that the two where best friends since he came out the same box a year and eight months ago.
"So do you like her then" The boy spoke up out of no where as the trio where walking around the glade. Newt hummed in confusion, the boy signalled newt to crouch and he did. The boy whispered something into the blonde's ear, he flushed a light pink and chuckled
"I don't know, maybe" Newt replied in a hushed manner but it was loud enough for Rory to hear.
"What did he ask" Rory crossed her arms and looked at newt who just tapped the side of his nose as if to say 'its a secret'.
Later on the trio headed over to the bonfire that Gally and Alby had set up, the sun was just setting meaning it was going to get dark soon. Luckily the boy had all of his things set up already. The fire was lit and all the keepers plus Alby and Newt grabbed a torch before looking over at Rory to say a speech.
"okay when i first came up here i never expected us to come this far, yes we may be trapped in a bloody box but were doing pretty god damn well at surviving here. Three years. That's how long some of us have been here, we've gone from twenty to almost fifty. It might be a little odd for me to say this since some of you still thinks its fun to perv over me but were family or the closest we have to it so this one's for us but mainly our new greenie over here"
"To us and Greenie!" Everyone cheered as the keepers, Newt and Alby threw the torches into the fire. People drank Gally's special concoction, people ate snacks that Frypan had created, people laughed, danced, celebrated. Everything was good, at least for that one night. They had each other and in reality that's all they needed.
"Chuck, My names chuck" The greenie spoke to Rory who smiled and turned to the group.
"Guys!" Everyone turned to face her "Everyone meet chuck"
"Chuck" All the boys cheered. For the rest of the night Rory spent it with Chuck and Newt, when chuck got tired that's when the party really started for Rory. She finally drank Gally's drink and danced the night away with newt despite having zero music in the background.
