Beauty is in the eye of the Beholder

Friends and Foes

"Hey Gally!" I shout from a few feet behind him.

I guess he didn't hear me or he is choosing to ignore me because he did not move a muscle. After having a conflict with myself I decided to apologize to him even if he is ignoring me.

"hey" I say after coming up to him.

He still doesn't move a muscle.

" You know that I was just coming up to you to try and apologize but if you won't accept it I will just leave you be and trust me you don't want me as a foe."

I start to walk off but before I get far I feel someone grab my wrist.

" Let me tell you something, greenie, I don't have many friends around here but the ones I do have understand my reasoning. I think you would be one of them."

I stood there my mouth slightly parted not knowing what to say.

" Now scram before I get told off on slacking and you get a whole lecture about not talking or even looking at me."

With that he walked off. I guess I made a friend. I think...

Newt came up to me with a warm smile. "Gathering is in five you must come."

"Come on I haven't even eaten breakfast" I say with a click of my tongue.

"Ok go see if Frypan has any left over and then bring it with you."

"Yay I cant remember the last time I have eaten, literally"

"Haven't heard that one before" Newt says trying to put as much sarcasm in his voice. We walked in opposite directions, well he walked and I skipped...

When I arrived I met this so called Frypan. Thank goodness he had some left overs. Anyway I think I hit it off with him in a friendly way. Now I am heading to the gathering across the glade.

I try not to let my thoughts wander off. Like I don't want to think about my family, if I had one... SEE THINKING ABOUT THAT IS DEPRESSING! Oh looks I'm here.

"Greenie your late!" Alby booms over the noise of the conversations going on between everyone.

"Sorry not sorry, I was hungry and a girls gotta eat" Alby rolls his eyes at my statement.

"Ya whatever just take a seat in the middle."

I take my seat and believe it or not I hate being the center of attention. Once Alby quiets everyone down I put my head down. I can feel the glares even when I can't see them.

"Alright let's get this gathering started,
So someone prepose what we should do with the greenie,"

Zart I think rose his hand, "think we should banish her,"

"Why" Alby said.

"Well one she is the only girl we have ever had, so why now after 3 years. I think she is a spy. Two she threatened to slit Gally's throat. we can't have Rebels like her in the glade. she could easily killed one of us by now. And what stops her from killing one of us in the future."

"YA I COULD KILL YOU. WHY DONT I JUST GET IT OVER WITH NOW." I say that with anger building up even more with each word. Just when I was about two jump across the table separating me from him my eye sight was consumed be black and a ringing pain was felt in the back of my head.
