Yours Truly

Chapter 1: The Box

Elle's POV

              I gasp deeply trying my best to take in any air that I can. I can feel my lungs are full of water, so I flip myself over with any energy that I have in me choking up the water. When I am finally able to breathe again I realize my shoulder throbbed and ached. I reached my hand up to the back of my shoulder. It shook from my lack of energy and strength I had in my body. When I remove my hand from my shoulder I look down at my fingers to see a deep crimson liquid dripping off of them. Great, I was bleeding. All I could hear around me was the sound of metal rubbing against metal, it echoed around me, which didn't help at all with the pounding in my headache that I had. I tried to get a better sense of the area I was in by moving around a little bit. The only light to guide me was an occasional red flash that came from my left and right. As I crawled around I could feel crates of wood as well as fabrics of some sort. All the sudden I bump into a metal grated wall. So I turn the other way, but only to run into yet another wall. Soon enough I realize that I'm in a metal box. "Hello?! Is anybody there?!" I yell hoping that someone can help me. Then all the sudden the crate starts moving upwards, and fast. I try to stand up but only fall again from the force of the box being propelled upward. 'How did I get here?' I thought to myself. 'Am I going to die? What if the people on the outside of this cage are going to hurt me?' all these thoughts ran through my head as I scooted myself into the corner of the box. I was quite cold so I used one of the pieces of fabric I found to cover my soaked shivering body. The box only continued to propel upwords. 'Maybe I should hide?' I thought, so I grabbed some of the crates placing them around me, as to block the view of my body from any outside eyes.

            I feel as if I had been in the box for hours, and soon enough I even passed out from pure exhaustion. The extreme amount of blood loss probably didn't help either. All the sudden I am jolted away by the box coming to a halt. My anxiety began to spiral even more. I pushed myself further into the wall behind me, even though I don't think it was possible. I also tried my best not to make any noise as to hopefully not alert anyone that i'm here. Even with the crates around me I could still see light seep into the box. It looked like someone had opened it from the outside. All the sudden I could feel the crate move meaning someone had gotten in. "I don't see the greenie!" I hear a heavily accented voice yell. "Well look harder then!" someone yelled back. I could hear crates moving around and I prayed that they wouldn't find me. "No seriously I don't see anyone, just the supplies!" the accented boy said again. Then I felt the box jolt again, I hoped that it meant the boy had given up and gotten out but I wasn't going to risk it. I just hugged my legs into my chest and dug my head into my knees. "Ok well let's just get the box unloaded then." I heard the boy say. I could then hear crates being moved around and I was panicking so much that I would be found that I actually passed out again.

Newt's POV

            I was working in the gardens when I heard the greeny alarm go off. "Alright comeone boys, let's go and get this shank over with." I say to Zart while getting up heading over to the box. Once I get over there me and Gally grab the handles and open the box for me to jump in. When I jumped in I was surprised to see that there was no greenie. "I don't see the greenie!" I yell out to the boys. "Well look harder then!" Gally replied. 'Awww thanks super helpful' I think to myself. I moved some of the crates around to try and see if the greenie was hiding behind one of them but I still didn't see them. Were the creators not gonna send any more people up? Did they make a mistake? "No seriously I don't see anyone, just the supplies!" I yell back out. "Ok well let's just get the box unloaded then." Alby replies. I start grabbing crates and passing them up to the gladers on the outside of the box. I was getting to the last few boxes when I found a weird little pile of clothes. I pick one of them up and gasp at what I saw. "God the bloody shank scared me. Found em!" I yell out to the boys. "Shank needs a haircut, they're looking like a girl" I hear someone yell. I move all the other things out of the way from around the greenie. I could only see the side of their head. The rest of their body was still covered by the clothes. "He's bleeding! Get Jeff and Clint now!" I yell out to the boys above. As they run off I Shake the greenie to try and wake them up. "Hey come on get up shank." I say holding onto their shoulder. 'They really do need a haircut, haha' "get the bloody hell up mate!" I say shaking the greenie trying to wake them up. 'Were they dead?' I shake a little harder and this causes their head to flop over. They were now facing me, their hair still covering their face. I move it out of the way so that I can get a better look at the greenie. "I-It's a bloody girl!?" I yell.
