THE ERROR (Newt Fanfiction)

Tour: Chapter 2

Hey guys! I updated quick, didn't I? XD  I hope you enjoy this chapter!!!! Sorry it's so short :l

Newt sighs roughly and stops leaning on his staff, turning to Alby, clearly agitated. "Now, come on. We don't bloody know that."

Alby narrows his eyes further, the corners of his mouth flicked downward. He shoots up his hand, pointing a finger directly at Kayla's face.

"So you don't think the klunk that's goin' on is this shank's fault?"  

Newt lowers his gaze, turning slowly back to face Kayla. A short moment of silence lands through the air, broken only by the murmers of the other boys.

Suddenly, a boy with short brown hair curses under his breath and walks forward, shoving Newt in the shoulder as he passes. He stops directly in front of Kayla.

"Listen, shank." His voice is rough and his eyes are angry. "Don't think we don't know what's going on."  

He steps forward again, their noses only inches apart. Kayla can smell his breath and she forces herself to not cough.

The boy raises his hand and shoves her back, his veins bulging in his arms. Pain knocks through Kayla's shoulder and she stumbles a few paces behind.

Newt immediatly drops his staff and runs the few quick strides forward with ease. He grabs the boy's hand and yanks him away from Kayla.

"Gally! Cut it out! She obviously knows no more than we do!"

Gally turns to Newt. "Don't tell me what to do, shuck-face!"

The two boys continues to argue, and the others mumble under their breath. Kayla feels overwhelmed. What were they even blaming her for?? She steps back another few feet.

"Hey!" She shouts above the argument and Alby ordering the other boys to stay where they are.  All of them stop and turn to look at her. "L-listen..." Her voice stammers. "I...I don't know wh-where I am.." Gally scowls. "I highly doubt it, shank." Kayla can see Newt's angry gaze burning through his skull and she continues to talk. "My...my name is Kayla.."  

Newt gives a curt nod, the slightest hint of a smile on his face; Gally rolls his eyes, the rest of the boys still stare. Alby sighs and rubs his eyes with both hands, obviously tired and sick of her. "Listen, Greenie...Newt here is gonna give you a tour and we'll have a meeting tonight."

He motions to Newt and the blonde boy half waves, introducing himself. Kayla swallows and does the same, her gaze low. Alby looks to the asian kid. "Get into the the Maze today, okay?"

He nods and Kayla suddenly feels a big stab of confusion and curiosity. "Maze? What maze? Theres a maze?"

Newt looks to her, his eyes darkening. "We'll talk about that in the tour, Greenie." She nods again and watches as the boys spread out, some going toward a bunch of trees, others going to wooden buildings, and the rest going towards fields of crops.

Newt steps forward, holding out a hand. "Let's start over. Hi, my names Newt." He smiles and Kayla takes his hand in a small shake, her gaze still low. Newt waves a hand in front of her face.

"Greenie? It would be a lot easier if you looked at me during the tour." She raises her head and looks at him, finally realizing all of his features. Square jaw, dark brown eyes, dirty blonde hair, short but flipped to the right at one side, slightly hanging over his right eye.

She smiles very faintly and shuffles her feet. Just then does Kayla realize what she is wearing; tan army pants, a dark green tank top, and brown boots. Her hair is blonde and goes down just below her chest. Suddenly, it hits her. She raises her gaze to look at Newt again.

"Wait..." Panic floods her. "I can't remember anything... why can't I remember anything!" Newt places a hand on her shoulder. 

Hey calm down, its alright we all went through the same bloody thing."

He lets his hand drop to his side and Kayla blinks. "Oh... so where should we start?"

Newt points a finger to the machine that brought her up behind him. "That's called the Box. Every week at the same time we get supplies. Food, maybe some rope, jars, it depends. And every month we get a new Greenie. Congrats, this month it's you." Kayla shakes her head. "Where are all the girls?" Newt clears his throat. "Yeah, about that... you're the only one so far..." Kayla blinks. "What? Why?" He shrugs. "We're having a meeting tonight so we can talk about it then." Alright, Greenie, let's move on.

The tour was exhausting. So many things to learn about!

The Deadheads (forest) The Homestead, crops, jobs, work. The only thing Newt STILL hasn't talked about to Kayla is the Maze. She asked quite a few times but each time Newt ignored her question.

Earlier she had heard a boy's scream and Newt had rushed off, telling her where to go, though Kayla had assumed nothing of it.

Kayla's feet thump against the hard earth as she walks toward the Homestead. Newt told her to be there in about half an hour sometime around 25 minutes ago. When she arrives, she pushes open the wooden door and steps inside. There where chairs lined up... though no one in them. She can hear screams and scuffles upstairs... she can also hear many voices. 

"Hold him down!"

"Newt, get his legs!"

"I got is waist!"

"Get the serum!"

"Clint, it's all over the floor!"

Kayla hurriedly climbs up the stairs and opens another door, stepping into a large room. Many faces turn to stare at her and she looks onto a bed in the middle of the room. On it is Gally, blue veins streaking up on his body, Newt pressing his legs to the mattress and two other boys holding his upper body.

Suddenly, he gets free.

Gally jumps up, kicking Newt in the face and runs forward. He rears back a fist and slams it into Kayla's cheek.
